Nice aesthetics even though bit too sterile, I get the idea but you should have developed a bit further. The game is bit short and there isn't much going on, other than everybody's hating you for some reason.
I can appreciate implicit storytelling, but there were little to no details that indicated what was going on in the story. I was also severely disappointed by the sheer number of invisible walls when a more tightly packed and well organised town would have been much more interesting to look at and around. Despite their simplicity, I do like the graphics, but some more tweaking to their shaders and a bit nicer work on the terrain would have done wonders.
You've chosen good categories to score in. The theming is excellent, very well delivered. I didn't know why the first person was rude to me, but it quickly sunk in.
It felt like the initial goal was a little far away, making the world feel a bit sparse. But it makes sense now why you would live far away.
The map is a bit too big, most of the game is spent walking, I think a more tightly packed map would've had more impact. But the graphics and mood are great. The people around you just push you away, or look away, because you did something.. because you are the monster.
The map may be too big for the current content, the graphic style may be too different between the terrain, the trees, people, and there may be no music, but the atmosphere is set, and makes we want to know more about the story ! I'd play a full version of this game :)

That's what I tried to get across :)

The camera feels stiffy and the absence of sound really kills the atmosphere
I like the fact that I can see my own body though.
It's fine. Monsters need milk like us, of course.
It's attractive and has a good atmosphere.
