The web version's resolution is too big, and it could've really used a full screen button. There is one at the bottom right, but it does no seem to work.
As for what I could play: Art is pretty and the music is great. The game concept looked neat and well thought out. There were some spelling errors, however the writing itself was decent.
Would love to see a full game release

Thank you!
