+1 for Bao. Another +1 for Goose. Very cool artwork, setting, and atmosphere. Opening dialogs in the bar set the tone well, though it does feel a little heavy-handed with the 'call to adventure'. As some others mentioned, the cursor disappears frequently, seemingly when you're not on a hitbox of some kind and there is no image for the cursor. I must admit I truly had no idea how to make it past the first puzzle. I was expecting some kind of visual or audio cues to indicate the correct choice. After dozens of trial and errors I got too frustrated to keep trying.

Edit: Playing PC version btw, also it seemed the resolution was slightly  too large for my monitors, overlapping to the second.

Thanks for playing. We are sorry that you had a problem with the cursor, and we are looking into how to fix it. Unfortunately, we don’t have a Windows machine at our disposal, only a virtual one. The mostly tested versions are for Web and Mac.

In the spell puzzle, you need to grab (by left-clicking) spells from your inventory at the bottom and then right-click on a scene to cast them. You are absolutely right: we need a better explanation of the process.

That part I was able figure out, but I only had 3 available spells with 4  objects in scene to interact with.  Every time I used my 3rd spell it told me to try again, and there was seemingly no right order of execution that would allow me to proceed.

That’s strange. Two evil spells are close enough to be destroyed with just one of your spells unless there is a bug related to the screen resolution.

Ahh this went right over my head! I was clicking directly on each 'card' on the trees and didn't pay much attention to the circular area after using the spells.

OK you'll have to forgive my initial ignorance haha but it is a bit of lesson on how to teach dumb players like me. I really enjoy the sun spell puzzles and would love to see lots of these, but the puzzles at the shrine as others have said feel very trial and error-y. It was nice to return to the bar and speak to characters again. I would really like to see Bao involved heavily in the story as he seems like quite a knowledgeable character, and also because he's a talking kitty.
