Don't listen to the guy below me, I will make a review, without mistake.
First off, the atmosphere had me a bit spooked; the lack of music is creepy and the emptiness of the world didn't leave anything to be desired - it actually added to it. As for the NPC's, they were just enough..who's to say that an NPC has to do anything? They're their own person. If I had to nitpick, I would just say to make it longer because my friend wanted to watch me play it longer, too.
This is what I like to call a first beta project. Sorry if this is gonna get long. First of the file of this game is very large. Thats because you kept all the pre made things still in the game. If you remove the files that arent needed or incryped them then the file is somewhat smaller. The story is very emtpy. 2 NPC's at most and the character at the end we havent seen anywhere. Almost nothing has colition. You can just kinda walk over the house. The dialogue could use some personal look at it. Give the characters some emotion. An easy way to make your game stand out is making the art of it yourself. I personaly use Pixel studio and thats free so try that out and learn it slowly but surely. You can customise the look of this itch page aswell to make it not just white and that might helps a bit with luring in people.
Final thoughts
I know its your first game but the sooner you have a path to follow the sooner youll get better at it.
