Even though that there is a lot of dialogue very early on in the game, I love it because it's getting me to be hooked to not just to keep playing this game to find out what Kat is really after but also hooked to the storyline.
This game does some moments of humor like with one of people saying Kat's name is fitting because of wearing a black cat mask or Ari saying how Tulip is a fitting name because it's a lovely flower in her words. So the story is definitely 5/5.
As I keep playing more, I like the fact that I can see some moving NPCs around certain areas of the map. I also love how in some moments there are choices that I can make, which as I already said makes me stay engaged and hooked to gain more background information and story of the world around Kat.
The presentation is also really good too, just from reading the game's itch page.
Also as soon as I saw the cut body during the magic trick, I was horrified, just an incredible way to portray horror at that moment. I thought it was fake until Kat's serious expression says it all.
I also love there is a save option and I can always reload it especially after failing a fight. Great work on submitting this to the jam.
