I'm very impressed with this demo. I'm currently making my own one using Visionaire, and I'll be a very happy guy indeed if it can reach the high level of quality of this one.
The few things that I didn't like were the 3D characters. I understand that it's the most efficient and convenient way to have animated characters, but handdrawn adds such charm and a feeling of 'craftsmanship' to a game. Now they felt a bit static and cold. But apart from that: the detailed backgrounds, the many visual tricks and treats (lighting especially), the bountiful interaction, the amusing setting and the nice puzzles, it was all great.
This is a big thumbs up, but I'm also kind of biased because I know now better than ever what an enormous job it is to build something like this.
