What do you think?

just played the game's prototype for a bit and, despite being a very early version of the build, it leaves a very good first impression!) the game has vibrant colors to its enviroment, well-written NPC's that feel like real people while still keeping their alien features, fun dialogue that is a joy to read (with some very humorous fourth-wall breaks and self-awareness here and there, too!) and, overall, the game heavily reminds me of both the old point-and-click adventures, like Grim Fandango or The Painted World and the custom maps for Spore with its alien, disproportionate but also cozy locations!) my favorite detail of the game has to be the main character, Selene - she moves so weird but also so cool, floating through the air, and her idle stance looks great and memorable - it's also pretty rare to see a witch be the main character in a game - the only other MC witch that comes to my mind is Marisa from Touhou Project, but she's a lot more younger and mischievous and Selene - out heroine displays wisefulness and consideration in her dialogue while also being snarky from time to time, and, best of all, her talking with other inhabitants of the world feels very natural - you can see that she's been here for a while and people already got used to her, which is great storytelling!)

my only problem with the build has to be the Space button, though - locating the exit to such a big button that the player could accidentaly press wasn't the best decision, but, alas, i managed to watch out from hitting it, but others may not be so lucky, jajaja!) other than that - i have no complaints about the early prototype and will definitely look forward to future updates for Ourania Magissa!) and to you, MaxMichael, i wish best of luck and nerves of steel while developing the game!) take care!

This is an early prototype for a game I'm working on. You can walk around town, talk to NPCs, buy items at shops, equip crystals into slots if you have any. After leaving town you can bump into monsters to start battles. There is a very minimal questline, but it doesn't go far yet.
