Still playing the game and loving it so far, though I did just lose a large chunk of progress because I flew through/adjacent to the stoned basilisk and it still used it's gaze to stone and game over me.
Saw that this got updated, had to try it again. Got all the way through this time! \0/ Found a few minor bugs, but nothing game-breaking:
The invisible wall to the right of the toilet doesn't go all the way up, so it forms a sort of pocket that you can walk into along the top wall. Can walk back out the same way, but it's a little confusing at first.
I was able to interact with the sewing machine and the safe after I was already done with them, and got the previous dialogue.
I was able to walk through the coffee table, and the Z-levels got a little weird:
Really enjoyed seeing everything this time. =) Though I do have a few suggestions:
I didn't make the connection the game expected about the bookcase infestation, and ended up looking it up online. If there isn't already a hint about it in the usual place (that just didn't come up for me for some reason), one wouldn't go amiss. Unrelatedly, thumbs up for the sound effects in that scene.
I was pretty happy to see that you put in actual book titles and wanted to see what sort of reading material this vampire lair has, but I read very quickly and I still wasn't able to read a couple of them in full before the prompts went away. Might want to slow that down some.
Seems odd that a game with such a distinct style just shows up as the plain white placeholder icon on the Windows taskbar. Doesn't take away from it, exactly, but it's a chance to show it off some more.
Mostly just a stylistic choice, but after seeing the credits I hung around for a while on the "The End" screen to see if there was anything after that, too. Going back to the menu screen seems to be the usual convention to indicate "yup, we're done here", and that external cabin view might be a nice way to tie it back to where we first see a glimpse of what to expect from this game.
Thank you for the game, and for coming back to polish it. Looking forward to anything else you might do. =)
Hm. Actually, just checked, and it looks like I'm only getting the taskbar placeholder on the computer with Win11Pro; the one with Win10Pro shows a ?catgirl head? - hard to tell at that size.
Really liking the art, humor and just the overall aesthetic of the game. Could use a bug pass, though; my main save just got hosed with one of the spots where your characters get stuck and you can't do anything but quit.
Off the top of my head, the two main spots are the left side of the closet door in the bedroom and just to the right of the stove in the kitchen. The main way to get stuck seems to be standing within a couple of steps from them and using items - once the item dialogue finishes, I can't move from the spot, Escape doesn't work, etc.
Not sure if the thing with the save is a separate issue - I'm pretty sure I didn't save after getting stuck in the kitchen, but when I load that save it's in the stuck state.
Appreciate this I noticed a few bugs that slipped past me, will be fixed in an update Soon. Also if anyone gets stuck in the game, there's a bat on the ceiling in the living room that will give you hints. Turn into a bat and fly up there to ask for help.

Real sorry about that. Do you remember what room/about where you got stuck? I know what causes this & I thought I'd cleaned them all up.
