Hi!
I just finished playing the demo and wanted to say that the game has a gorgeous atmosphere. The pixel art, the nighttime setting, and the mysterious creatures give the world so much personality. I was immediately intrigued by the story and the world you're building.
I love the moment during the phone call with the father, when the narrative music starts. The music in those moments fits perfectly with the dreamlike tone of the game and reminded me a bit of the emotive style of classic RPGs like Chrono Trigger. The Island of Dreams is simply brilliant.
I was also intrigued by the card-based combat system. It's an interesting idea, and I was wondering if you plan to expand it later with more strategy or intensity in the battles.
I'm a composer and I enjoy working on narrative RPG worlds like this, so the game's atmosphere immediately caught my attention.
Do you have a Discord server, a development log, or an email address where you share updates about the project? I'd love to follow the development and see how the game evolves.
Great job with the demo!
