Hi there  :)
The fugue's nice, I think it's great that people still compose fugues.
Could use some more development. Maybe it can give you a chance to present the main theme more, and give some room for each individual voice to do its own thing.
And one more thing...
WHY DO YOU END IT IN G MINOR????:-\

The theme is actually very good! But it's out of proportion... It needs something after the development. Maybe the theme in major? You also rush to the end, and finish it in the wrong key.

With some more work, I think it can be quite good!

Hi piulento  and pianoman53  :)

Thanks for your feedback ! As for the fugue, It is still a draft and I am planning to develop it and add a major section (and of course end it in c minor)
