Great effort on using Adventure Creator to make an FMV game. I like how you are going for that Phantasmagoria 2/Gabriel Knight 2 kind of interface and game systems. Some criticisms:
* The writing needs a lot of work. I had many questions about who these characters were, their backstory, what location I was in, etc.
* The game needs a lot of atmospheric sound design work since you have no voices on an FMV game. You def need VA for an FMV game and if you don't want to maybe give the video animations a specific pose and maybe use speech bubbles to the effect above the character to make it more stylised.
* The FMV sequences don't pause when trying to save the game.
* You don't need the tutorial up for every chapter. It is a pretty straight forward game mechanic wise.
Either way love your work, and if you'd like to collaborate in the future would love to chat. You can email me at contact@grahfmusic.com
