Short but semi-sweet

First the good, the pixel art and animation is outstanding. The lighting and colors, everything is top notch. The killing enemies has a satisfying feeling and there is a fair bit of difficulty to it but it is a fair challenge. Unfortunately this game does not equal the sum of its parts. Although the art direction is excellent character design is a cookie cutter anime girl in a school girl outfit with busty villains which has been done to death so much it is boring to no end. The music is completely forgettable and the game does not encourage you to use its many weapons and of course the game is way too short for what they are charging. I am ok with a short game but the price has got to match. Its full price as of this writing is about 20 USD it is worth playing at about 7 USD so wait for a sale and you will feel better about your purchase.

Stiff as Hell Controls, Nothing to See

NOT RECOMMENDED. It is one of those games where you fight against the controls to keep your dude moving and you are bored and wondering when it will end. Plot is so clichee you are going to know exactly what is going to happen once the characters are introduced. None of the characters are developed at all. There is no unique or exciting content to look forward to. It is the same carbon-copy stuff that has been done better decades ago. The character animations are the only relatively good part of the game. The plot is dumped at the beginning and the end and your gameplay is essentially wasted effort as you can get the essential parts by watching the game endings on a video site. The controls suck in two (2) irritating ways: 1) Your character freezes in place if you attack and will stay rooted until the weapon attack has been finished. Stiff as concrete. This makes fighting more than one enemy at the time almost impossible. You cannot do any cool dodging as it will with you eating a couple of hits in rapid succession and die instantly. 2) Because the controls are so stiff, you have to keep focusing on babysitting the character. As soon as you momentarily loosen focus, thinking you can routinize this, you are DEAD in a nanosecond. The game does not drop MP recovery power ups, so most of the game you cannot cast spells. There is only spot in the starting area that spawns MP orbs, so you have to go there and to refill your magic points that are barely enough to cast two spells. MP recovery item drops are rare. In late game you get MP regen equipment, though at that point it is no longer useful. Half the play time is spent on trying to keep your MP and HP bars from emptying and dying and losing progress because having no reliable saving in a game where you can die in half a second is garbage. You will lose so much progress and whatelse because you are more concerned about being set back and having to replay parts over and over again instead of advancing in the game.

Nice, short game with atmosphere

The aesthetics and style of the game were very nice. The design reminds me of games like Momodora and overall works pretty well. I quite enjoyed the game's creepy atmosphere and got very into it. The story itself is not too unusual and most players will probably see where it's going right from the start, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing. The game does have some fun little gags sprinkled around. The gameplay is ok, fun and sufficient at times and slightly frustrating other times. There's plenty of variety in the items and different types of builds. Swapping items might be necessary and useful in many cases, but this leads to some frequent hopping in the menus. Also it is very clear that some builds are just straight up immensely powerful (clearing bosses in little more than seconds) and some are very weak or risky at best. Save points tend to be frequent, but very occasionally inconsistent, which may lead to annoying backtracking. I found the game fairly difficult mainly due to precision required for the controls and some enemies being very punishing, but more liberal use of consumable items helps this a ton if you're quick enough to open the menus. The game had some major technical issues right from the start. On my system, either going to fullscreen or turning on vsync (not exactly which one) would frequently cause the game screen to freeze irrecoverably, the game still running behind the frozen screen. This happened several times and caused me to lose some progress, and honestly I would have dropped the game if playing in a smaller resolution non-maximized window had not fixed the issue. Luckily this style of game doesn't really suffer too bad from not being in fullscreen or higher resolution, but this should still definitely be fixed.
