It's okay
Looks like a decent game. My only nitpick would be the speed of character in platformer mode. It feels off: the char moves rather slow and there are still frames in animation which add even more to the perception of slowness. I would prefer a bit more responsive platforming.

Strange hybrid of platform and strategy
Yep, I did't read the description before I began to play. I was playing a very nice platformer, with few if any flaws, when I finished the second level and suddenly found myself playing a long strategy section. It was too much of a change of pace and gameplay, and I didn't like it. I know there is a necessity to developers tryng new things to stand out in the overcrowded offering of games nowadays, and I will give more chances to Smelter in the future, but I really was disappointed with this sudden change of gameplay.

Jump'n'run with varied addition
I flootipoo with this game on Garuda Linux using Wine 8.2 staging. The "real-time strategy-action" first deterred me and I am glad for the demo. I noticed this is a fleshed out platformer game with low-threshold empire building on a map. The gameplay is fun. I dislike RPGs for having all these stupid numbers and overthinking with dexterity-devoid leveling systems. I dislike Metroidvanias for being forced for being so constrained in which secrets I can find early on. I dislike pure strategy games for overthinking where most mechanics are dismissable. Not so much in this game. Health bars are used. You learn new moves on the way. The amount of enemy health were right. Does not require more than 3 hits to remove them. Despite the 16-bit looks, it plays like a very modern game which it is. Animations make Eve dynamic, German translation is very good and music feels right. The story is a strange fictional mixture of japenese culture with biblical creation story elements. The free falling theme seems so common in japanese stories, does it show faint? Early on, it contains meta-level text which can confuse or make me smile, and combined with a portion of usable illogic. Down there, Smelter is your cheeky powerful egocentric unicorn owl armor. It often felt like my allies were the evil guys and smelter was confined for an actual reason. Is the initial room supposed to be a green hell? Is smelter a lucifer? I deduce 1.5 stars for the controls. Heck is it HARD to play this game on keyboard and find a funtional mapping. The implemented wall jump move is the most frustrating part. It's easy to be stopped or hold by ceilings because wall jumps are vertical, leading to unforgiving mistakes when speed counts. It made me rage. There is also too much instant death at some points. Otherwise, it's fun to play. The moveset is sophisticated enough and moveset progression is fast. The demo is quite long so after multiple levels I stopped investing more time before the full game.

She is not Ryuko Matoi...
It cannot be denied that the fusion of the main heroine and Smelter are heavily inspired by Kill la Kill. I really liked this weird anime, by the way. The "hard" graphic mix between landscape view and 2D action reminds me of "The Adveture if Link" for Nes The game in itself is interesting and varied.

Wow, just wow
I was definitely not expecting that this demo is either unplayable or too old-school to play. Anytime you die (by jumping in pool of acid in my case) you need to restart the game, cause there are no checkpoint (even when they should be there). Only plus is - this game is good for speedrun, cause you can just ignore the apple and go all the way to the right, so you will get your endgame credits
