What do you think?

I love what you did here.... Man, retro graphics with music coming close to the internal squeaker sound of the old MS-DOS PCs... I feel young again, really....

I also LOVE the concept of a girl who's actually a werewolf, causing her to change into a wolf when she touches moonlight.
Now the controls really feel like the old DOS games I used to play, but since I now tried this game on Mac, the controls nagged me, as ctrl+arrow left is a quick key on Mac going to the Mac gadgets screen, and MacOS makes that take priority over the game, and I died because of that as the game will move on while MacOS emphases my access to its own features. Of course, since I can change the controls I can get around this, but if you can make MacOS stop doing that from your code, or advice a different key setup for Mac users, this could be great. (Now I plan to switch back to Windows soon, so that issue will soon be over for me, but still).

Now I understand that in order to make the old retro style live this game has an "is dead => game over" approach, but I already hated that as a kid (and for good reasons, I can now say as an adult), so perhaps just a check point restart approach/savegames kind of style wouldn't hurt and I don't think that would take the entire feeling of ancient gaming away. At least, not for me...

All-in-all, this game really made me happy. And I will definitely play it again. ;)

Ling awakes in Baron Baranov's dungeon. The baron fears all creatures of the night and Ling knows that her dark heritage is the reason for her imprisonment. Can she escape from the dungeon? Can she break her curse?
