I have just finished reading your review and playthrough notes.
Thank you for taking the time to share your full experience as you may imagine it is pretty hard getting comprehensive feedback from people who drop the game quickly. One thing that surprised me a lot was that you felt stuck... in the starting room? It is a first time for me, so I would love to know how it happened. 🧚 I got the impression you felt obligated to search the whole room looking for something, so my question would be, what gave you this sentiment?

So, of course my first instinct was to interact with the large crystal in the room, to which I got a message that I was forgetting something. Then when I try to leave the room, I got the same message. Grabbed the sword, got the same message. At this point I started looking for anything sparkling, so I went and interacted with a couple objects, and couldn't get the money on the counter because I was a little unclear that you need to interact with the paper tile in front of the desk (I'm not entirely sure why that's even there) before getting the money, and after this I tried interacting with the crystal again figuring it was probably where I'm supposed to go, and still got the same message. At this point I interacted with basically every tile in the bedroom before finally leaving down the stairs instead.
Oh, you thought the teleporter crystal was the way to go instead of the stairs?
I guess I could remove the "Angel is about to use the teleportation crystal, but she feels like she forgot someone..." text and put directly the "Due to the breakfast rush, the teleporters are currently overloaded." dialogue as the teleporters can not be used until the breakfast cutscene anyway. I wasn't expecting anyone would be so confused by that crystal. 🧚
