1) Played a little bit today again. I noticed something I missed the first time I played it. Not a bug - just a small oversight. Whenever I go back to the courtyard, the door creaks open and reveals the area, as if I enter it from the outside every time, not just the first time.

2) Can the blocked office be entered or not? If it can, please don't say how.

3) Will there ever be a sequel?

4) Also, the way you formatted the world model and puzzles was an inspiration for my game. I just finished the main part of pre-production today, and feature creep almost killed the project, but I managed to save it. If I ever actually finish and upload it, can I mention Asphodel Academy on my page, and maybe even link to it?

Hi! Thank you so much for the comment and for pointing out the courtyard reveal. I'll have to go check and see if there's anything to be done about that :)
The blocked office cannot be entered! You just get to peek in there.
As for a sequel, I hadn't planned on it, but I had originally written a different iteration of Rosaria's first mission that never made it to a real playable version. If there's interest, I could definitely see about finishing and adapting that one! 
If you'd like to mention and link my game, I would appreciate it! If you'd like as well, I wouldn't mind sharing a link in the description of Asphodel Academy as something similar to play afterwards :)

The courtyard can probably be fixed with a boolean that changes the passage after the first visit.

Book-publishing industry in my country is silly, to put it nicely, so I turned towards foreign lands, and found a good small press yesterday. Their next submission window opens on an unknown date after 2022 ends. I'll be spending most of my free time until then writing a novel.

I refuse to cancel the game, however, and it will definitely come out one day. When it does, I'll send you a link so you can include it, just don't expect anything any time soon as progress will be very slow.

This is amazing. Very fun and well written.

Found a bug, though: To wake the demon, it's enough to read the books. Going to the closet and reading the paper isn't necessary.

Hi Oknodian Games,
Thank you for the feedback and for finding an issue! I went in and changed a variable and it should be fixed now :)
