The lag in the performance is a huge issue, I'd strongly recommend prioritizing a fix for that first. Takes roughly 10-15 entire seconds to jump from one animation frame to another, it's just not a good look for a serious project, but that aside I love this concept and it reminds me a lot of another artist whose games I thoroughly enjoy (Zem)! I cannot help but wonder if you were maybe inspired by Zem's work, but yea definitely work out those kinks because your game has a crap ton of potential! ^_^ Great stuff, dev!
