I enjoyed this game! The music was atmospheric and set the mood without getting distracting. The dialogue is funny and quippy. And I didn't run into any significant bugs. One thing I would have liked was more freedom to make your choices in the story. It felt like my options were very linear and that broke the illusion of choice for me.
I feel like there's an interesting game in here. The idea of switching between large and small versions of yourself and having the forest change constantly is really cool and fits the theme perfectly. I found myself very confused however, and unsure of what exactly my goal was. The playability wasn't exactly there for me unfortunately.
This was a fun entry! I enjoyed it and liked how you added new concepts and tools as the game progressed. The graphics are nice and the day/night cycle introduces fresh challenges. I found the background music detracted from my experience a little, as it sounded quite generic and didn't vary based on gameplay. Gameplay wise, the game definitely kept me on my toes, though I think the bell might have made it too easy, since once I got it I didn't have to use my harpoon anymore.
Very solid overall! Your game has a strong sense of mood!
I enjoyed the art and the idea of mixing potions from items you collect is really cool. I found the game very confusing however, and wasn't sure what I was supposed to do or where to go. Some tutorial elements would be helpful since it seemed like all I could do with potions was throw them at monsters? (unless perhaps I'm missing something). It wasn't clear to me how to win the game.
