Cheesy story, clunky gameplay
- No bugs encountered. Finished in 9h which matches the time estimate here. - The story seems to begin shortly after the main char has been dumped. He's very much not over it. The first third of the game is a slog full of self pity. Excellent voice acting doesn't help when it relates to MC's insufferable thoughts. Getting over it remains a theme until the end, but the story eventually shifts a bit towards the mysteries of the forest itself, which is more interesting, There are a couple of loose ends though. - Combat has a button to attack, a button to dodge, and a button to play songs (aka cast spells). Attacking also moves the MC closer to the enemy, so after a 3-hit combo you're right on top of the enemy (touching enemies does no harm by itself). Positioning is nearly meaningless due to that. Dodging provides invincibility frames and the best strat for boss fights is to actually dodge towards them because you can follow up with attacks right after. - Decent enemy variety. - Attacks are slow. I'm not sure if one can develop a proper strategy around that. Only the last weapon has a decent attack rate, and is the strongest of the bunch. Combat feels like clunky chaos that is mostly resolved in the player's favor thanks to the healing spell. Other spells are very situational and unneeded. - There are some time wasters like walls that need 3 hits to break or statues that need 12 hits (with the slowest weapon). The game could've just used 1 hit instead and be purely better off. - Dodging requires stamina which constantly recharges, but it's annoying that stamina is a limitation even outside combat when one just wants to move quickly. - Graphics are workable, but sometimes walls are hard to see. The initial part of the game has many treetops that completely block the view when traversing under them. - The foot tap animation while playing is not synced with the song. Not a bad game at all but suffers from questionable design choices. Recommend picking up for 5-10 bucks.
