I enjoyed the concept! I love Don Quijote, and I like the style in which you wrote the manual! I also like the fact that this was made with the Godot engine; I was going to use Godot for my game, but I wound up sticking with something more familiar until Beta 2 was ready. Props to you for using it, though!

A few notes:

* The text on the opening scroll is *really* hard to read

* The sheep kept eating everything I was throwing -- I'm not sure if this is intentional or not

* I wasn't 100% sure what I was doing. I saw that Don Quijote would chase after the things I threw, and if I did it enough I would move on to the next level, but it wasn't completely clear exactly what I was throwing and what it did.

* I was able to walk offscreen and never come back -- perhaps put barriers on either side of the level?

I didnt know whats going on. What was I supposed to do? I didnt know whether what I was doing was good or bad. I as a player need more Output whenever I do an Input.

Yeah I wasn't sure what was going on really, the text at the start was hard to read. Other than that I liked the music :D

I like the theme and the presentation but found it hard to trial-and-error figure out what effects any of my actions had on the end results. It felt like there was an interesting system that I was just struggling to find.

The Audio is interesting but I don't know what is my role doing.Maybe you can use a simple font to describe tutorial rather than the strange font.

Nice audio, but I really didnt get the point of the game or how to properly play it.

I had a little difficulty reading the tutorial scroll in the beginning, having a more interactive tutorial might be a good idea for a game like this. Nice job with the time you were given, though!

Nice audio. The text at the beginning was not easy to read but the style and mood were cool. Enhorabuena!
