It felt a bit like an interactive picture book, and I loved the narration and sprite work. The bugs (heh) were unfortunate but seem like stuff that can be ironed out after the jam. I would've loved to see more interactions with the caterpillar\/butterfly moving down the tree, right now it just feels a bit like a cursor and not part of the scene, if that makes sense.

I liked how the character changed into a butterfly between scenes. The story itself was well composed, and the game itself kind of reminded me of those children's adventure games ala Freddie Fish.
