I really like the aesthetics! Looks very polished.

I did notice though that when you talk to some of the NPCs, part of the conversation is hidden depending on the camera angle (hidden by my player’s name).

Hi rosie401! Streamed Nail It! recently and was genuinely impressed by the creative tools and polished visuals. The design studio is super flexible and the ability to share your art is brilliant. The game is a delight for fans of customization and avatar expression.

That said, more structured objectives or mini-games would probably help hook a wider audience. As it is, players who love creative freedom will feel right at home!
