The world is very beautiful and the animation seems to run smoothly. There are a few things I would like to see, however. I would like an interface that includes the use of inventory, a map, objectives, ect... it doesn't have to be a series of menus, but I'd like to be able to know what I'm doing and where I am going. I am curious to see how the combat engine will affect everything. Music is soothing. With these things in mind, I see this game has great potential, but still needs more work. 4/5

not enough to get me interested in the full version.
A fun adventure! Not too complicated, not too long... but a lot of fun. I'm wondering about all the ingame sprites, if they're all custom-made or used from various sources? If they are custom, that's some amazing work! If not, still a great game. You could try to Kickstart this for a bigger project? Keep it going!

The world is somewhat interesting (and really would be amazing if it steered clear of standard fantasy genre tropes and did something different). I like your protagonist, because she's a redhead with freckles. Apart from that, the characters aren't yet fleshed out enough to either like or dislike them.
The cutscene picture of 'main character' talking has the mouth placed to low and the upper lip too defined, so that it appears that the upper lip is the mouth line. APart from that the art is good but not spectacular. The levels are okay, a bit cluttered in the first town, but I can tell a lot of work went into them.
As it stands now, there's no interactivity at all. You can walk around, but there's no challenge or meaningful choice involved. This could be a really good story with lots of choices, even in dialogue. (what if I didn't save the mage girl? What if I actually joined the obviously overbearing zealots [ugh, that trope again] in killing/capturing her?)
It has potential, but needs a lot of work. Good luck.
I can see this making a good game once there is a fleshed out story and a combat system in place. Right now though I think you are doing a great job, and I would support the finished product if it gets made.
