Hey there Grimmy Nocturne, I got your game for judging so here are some of my thoughts. It took a while to load, long enough that I was wondering if something was wrong. That was probably due to a plugin you used and I'm not sure how long it took other people to load, but you may want to double-check that and see if there's a fix to shorten it. You nailed the dark and spooky vibes right away, setting the mood for the rest of the game. The mapping was nice, but most of the areas felt a bit too big considering there was little to look at besides a bat here and there. The story felt rushed at moments, which I'm sure is from trying to finish in time.

Dashing into bats to become stronger was a silly idea, so I loved it and spent way too long hunting down every bat. Unfortunately I'm not sure how much of a difference that made to my actual strength, since the battles felt difficult even with my bat-powered self. The enemies just seemed to have so much health that it took ages to kill them, and I often lost a teammate during the battle (including Sesily in the first fight!), but luckily that didn't matter as long as I won overall. I tried to mix up which skills I was using, but didn't find any amazing synergy moves between skills beyond hitting hard and healing when my health was low. So including some other moves like roots that would bind a foe or blind them with a bunch of leaves would've been cool.

Overall, congrats on making a game with such strong environments! With a bit more time and polish, I know this could be an even more incredible game.
