Great game!
I like the fact that you kept the explorable areas nice and relatively small. It helps not getting lost going through a simple town and keeping the game moving forward. The story is nice and even a bit inovative in some respects (which is hard to do nowdays).
I noticed that after a while some areas of the game (which ran smothly in the begening) get real sluggish and refreshing doesn't seem to resolve the issue completly (each refresh is less effective). I get a mix of fast-slow areas (which is REALLY annoying is dungeons (dreams)).
Anyway I enjoyed your game and hope you make further chapters (try to make it run longer without the need for refresh though).
