The game's visuals and sound are nice, and there's a good hook to a potential story as well.

I had a few gripes with it, mainly that it was hard to navigate through the map. I'm not sure if every area looking the same is part of the story but sometimes one can find themselves swept back top the start unexpectedly if not paying attention to the map, which is easy to not look at when one has to navigate around the igloo without diagonal movement. There was also a lot of trial and error to find which paths swept me back, and maybe it's my not so stellar memory but I had to make myself a little paper map crossing off the paths that led to the start again. There was also a lot of tobias and player getting swept away together which led to the story not progressing for a while.

Other than that, the UI looks nice, character sprites and protraits are pretty, and I greatly appreciate that there is a submission with themes of NTR, something I was too afraid to do for my entry and thus am all too happy to experience through the entries of those who managd to use it as a theme!

Thanks for the feedback! For the rooms looking the same, I planned on making a proper procedurally generated "dungeon" with different rooms, and adding puzzles that need specific characters to progress, like for example, using Thea's fire magic to melt away a snow pile blocking an exit. The igloos were also meant to be something the player had to build, but I couldn't code that in time for the jam. I also agree that there's too much backtracking in the game as it is.

I see now the issue with the Tobias + player pairing when going the wrong way. It's random right now, which characters go missing, but maybe I should change the probabilities for that, or even add conditions for who stays with the player based on some story flags.

There's definitely some feelings of caution there when dealing with NTR themes. It's not for everyone, but I felt the desire to take part in the jam and make a game to explore it and share, so I'm happy to see others who have similar interests.
