Almost perfect for what it is
I bought this game after seeing the gameplay videos. It's about as fun as it looks, which is to say, pretty fun. If you like exploration and a lot of pretty environments, you'll like Itorah. I'm playing this on Ubuntu 20.04. It works almost perfectly under WINE. Even picked up my steam controller through sc-controller. It also ran on Debian 11 but that particular box just can't handle the graphics. Since this is a 1.0.0.0 release, I'll write down some suggestions in case the developer feels like working on this some more, which would improve the experience about as much as it could be improved. First off, it's fine that Itorah doesn't talk, but she IS still expressive, so the spots where it looks like she should be but isn't kinda stick out. It'd feel better if she would turn away from the camera and wave at the people you "talk to" instead of just standing there, not looking at them. I think her animation when being suspended by air or water could use more than one frame of animation, too. It also feels a little weird when she should be looking at something but isn't. These details might not be noticeable on smaller screens, but if you're playing on a large 4k screen (and if you have one, why not use it, the art is gorgeous), and she's usually well-animated, they kinda stick out. I ran into some small graphical bugs in a couple of spots, but they weren't anything besides amusing. The story isn't much, but it doesn't need to be. The final boss, though, well, I don't want to spoil it, but its appearance kinda creeped me out in a way the other bosses didn't. And there was a tiny bit of backstory in a flashback that no characters could have plausibly remembered, and I think was better left to the imagination, or maybe described by someone reading a book instead of flashing back. I'd give this 4.6 stars. Rounds up to 5. I don't necessarily think it's worth $20 thinking about some other games I've played and how long they were, but I'm also kind of cheap.
