I like how my opinion on this game changed over time. The first time I met a character with a different style I thought that having more consistent assets would be cool. In the end I appreciated all the different styles of characters. I guess I took a long way of my own :)
Gameplay wise... well I'd prefer the puzzles to be harder. In "HomeSick" they are more of a narrative device than actual puzzles to solve. I get that's a design decision, but I think the game would be even more engaging if I needed to figure out some solutions on the way.
Over all- I really enjoyed your take on the theme, as well as quirky art style. Keep up the good work!
