The idea of combat via dialogue is interesting, but I'm not sure if it's framed in the best way. That the tutorial combat somehow makes less sense than the combat that follows doesn't help.
The graphical effects are nice; you managed to convey different personalities from just basic silhouette well (though how the eyes and mouths are done feels out of place).
I think the art style is very interesting and the premise was interesting and innovative, but the ideas never seemed to come together. There were several moments where the game was trying to explain to me what the premise was, but I don't feel like I understood it.
I definitely like that it tried to do something different, though, and would love seeing this idea developed a little further.
Nice use of fractals for the background visuals! :) The characters, for me, looks like they've popped out of Radiohead's "Pyramid Song" video. Nice one! :)
The story is...weird, but in a good way. :) The way you wrote the dialogue, together with the visual style, gives the game that surreal feeling that's pretty nice.
Very interesting idea, but I couldn't figure out how to beat the second enemy at the house encounter, and since I had to restart from the beginning each time it became tiresome to try again rather quickly.

A good first shot, though!

Great one! :)
