Thanks! You're too kind ;)
Hello,
I would like to say that this game looks aesthetically beautiful (from the video and the screenshots), and even more due to the fact that it's graphics are to be accompanied by subliminal and melancholic melodies of the man himself, Chopin. I feel, though, that the "prelude" in the video is played a bit too fast for my taste! (but it is just my opinion, it might be even better if played this way, if it is a thriller, as you said)
I would also like to wish you good luck on finishing the project! :smiley:
Thanks for the kind words!

As for this I totally agree. The version in the game will be slower, and in better quality. It's just a matter of waiting for the recordings from the Musopen Chopin Kickstarter (https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/Musopen/set-chopin-free) I contributed to! :-)
Finally released! (http://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/forums/index.php?topic=51541)
