I played your game on stream last night. Overall, I really enjoyed my experience with it. The game has a nice sense of character, and the maps and animations seem well done.
In general, my biggest critiques of your game mostly come down to it being a demo. The demo does a poor job of representing what the actual game will be at launch since it is 90% talking and 10% walking; it never shows off combat, equipment, or much of exploration of levels.
I like the interactive intro, it leaves a good first impression. One thing I was disappointed about was the input for the question "What property do you want the world to have" seemed to have no effect on the game. One thing I thought would be interesting is using this (or a similar input section) to change what the people of the world are called, which has the side effect of removing the responsibility of calling people idiots since the people would be called whatever the player inputs.
Anyways, it's nice to see how far you have improved your game making skills since A Swift's Life (which, as you might recall, I played on stream a few months back). You've clearly improved a lot.
If you'd like to watch my experience with your game, I've linked the archive below. You can click the timestamps to jump to when I start playing your game.
I remember you - thanks for giving me another chance :) I'm glad you like the game and it motivates me a lot to continue!
Unfortunately, the game is only a demo at the moment, but it will definitely be expanded and should only give a brief glimpse, because the humor is not everyone's cup of tea. So you can quickly decide if you want to continue playing or if you're not interested in the full version.
I like your idea with the feature of the world, thanks for that! This is - like so much else at the moment - just a placeholder and will only be picked up once briefly by your woodlouse. The idiot theme is a central crux of the game, so I can't let the player change that. I understand what you mean, though, and will give this some thought.
Thanks so much for playing and streaming, it really means a lot to me! Will watch the video later.

I have no idea how he can survive in this house.
Well of course he is an idiot, so he doesn't know either, but he does surive somehow :D
