Hello! Welcome to Feedback Quest 5! It's nice to meet you! My name's Hythrain. I'm part of the FQ team and a hobbystreamer. I'm writing this review live after having played your game.
To begin, I will admit my dislike of wasps and wasp nests. So right off the bat, you had extra creep factor going in. The more I hate the feeling, the better a job you did. And maaaaan did I hate that feeling! The nests all throughout and growing more has me creeped out, and then there's that room with that AWFUL asmr sound effect! Ugh, just thinking about it makes me shiver in disgust! You did an amazing job with that factor.
I think the number one thing you need is for your background and area art to match with the movement tile size. The long hall with the red path is so much worse when sometimes you're in the middle of the red and sometimes on the edge, and you feel like the edge isn't close enough so you go up and then game over. Making them match up would be better. If this doesn't make sense, let me know and I'll explain further.
I also felt that there were a lot of times where the player had no indication of where to check. This particularly caught me for a while when I started playing.
Overall, I love and want more.
