solid first prototype, i would suggest zooming out since right now it's hard to see whats ahead which makes using the dash risky if you don't know what's ahead.
The setting seems like it could lend itself to some creative level designs. I'd like to know if there would be any form of combat within the game or if it would purely be focused on stealth and conversation. Having conversation be the main way to recruit the npcs is also interesting.
I'm really liking the game, it seems like it could be very replayable with trying to find strategies to optimize runs. I also like the visual style you're going for. Though i think the flow of the game could be clarified. Are the benefits and disadvantages immediate whenever you do an action. Also is there anything stopping the player from exploring everything from the start. I assume these are things that are going to be fleshed out with later iterations so overall looking forward to seeing the finished result.
