How do you proceed to the next ones? She just keeps running away ad infinitum, influence her, next day do first spell again, rinse and repeat...
That thing does not progress...

That thing does not progress...
the core gameplay loop of rotating shapes around is incredibly unchallenging and time consuming. this will need a rethink.
Kirill Repin Art a suggestion for the minigame, either make all shapes available by clicking the arrows or make a quick note on where to find them. It took me forever to realise that the just above the symbols can be clicked to change to pentagons, octagons and so on. Or was this mentioned somewhere? if so then i either didn't read it or forgot....

I haven't mention it, probably should have.

In later levels the scroll with the clues is being hidden underneath the puzzle area, you'll see the edge of the scroll sticking out. Click on it.
There is a brown parchment that can be clicked to the right side of the shapes window to bring up the combo required.
If the shape included in the instructions has an asterisks (*) then dont include it. I havent figured out when to include it (maybe if you are low on mana?)
Is it planned to make her turn around in the wardrobe or elsewhere? Im sure the shorts would make her ass look really good.
In regards to the rest of the game, the minigame is becoming really repetative really quickly but the dress up options and the art look nice so far and the titjob animation also looks good.

If you get it wrong too many times, that happens. Go to bed and try again the following day.
See the Spoilered part in the OP 'Regarding puzzles' for instructions on how to solve them.

Yeah, that would be pretty awesome for certain outfits!
It would be a lot of work though to produce the 'doll', as each outfit would need to be created entirely afresh, along with multiple poses for each. Maybe a few cutscene images instead, for those outfits where the rear view is worth it?

I've updated the first message to contain more info about the puzzles:
When you are solving the puzzles and following the clue, asterisk (*) symbol marks an extra element. If you use it - the spell will become too strong for the current level. To solve the puzzle you need to remove the element marked by the asterisk.
Once you have the correct combination of the elements (everything on the clue but without the asterisk element) - rotate them into a correct position.
How would you know if it's correct? They will start to glow.
How would you know if the puzzle is solved before actually casting the spell? You'll see glowing runes appear around the centerpiece.
In later levels the scroll with the clues is being hidden underneath the puzzle area, you'll see the edge of the scroll sticking out. Click on it.
There are three groups of the elements:
Corpora Caelestia - circles, triangles and squares
Elementa Alchemica - pentagons (5 sides), hexagons (6 sides), octagons (8 sides)
Potentiae Ocultae - heptagons (7 sides)
The ranking goes - Potentiae ocultae > Elementa alchemica > Corpora Caelestia. Which means Heptagons rotate themselves and everything else, Pentagons rotate themselves and the Circles, Hexagons rotate themselves and Triangles, Octagons rotate themselves and the Squares.
So you should first rotate Heptagons (when present) into a position, then penta-hexa-octa, and the simpler elements like circles, triangles and squares should be last.
If you cast the wrong (or too advanced) spell too much - you'll deplete magic and would have to wait a day or two until it recovers. In the future there will be mana potions but not in the current version.

I can appreciate some things about it but totally opaque puzzles with no explanations is a no from me

Well, it was a misdirection move by me, I didn't want to make puzzles too easy, with the clues available readily, so I decided to include an extra element. * means that this element will be used in the next level of the puzzle, but for now you should avoid it. I though it would be fun for the player to discover this on their own. Needless to say I was gravely mistaken.

Game's nothing short of amazing.
Sure, took me a bit to figure the puzzles out, but once it gets going, it's addictive and art is one of the best out there!
Kudos to Dev, watching this, the high rating is totally deserved.

Eventually I want to have additional illustrations, including turning around. Creating a whole duplicate of a character with every item would take a very long time.
