After only a few hours with the game and almost everything stands out as excellent and incredible, but in this moment the movement takes the cake. The sheer pristine wonder and enjoyment I've gotten from rapid dashing, sprinting, backflipping and ledge grabbing as Hornet marks a new bar for Team Cherry.
The combination of elements behind this games quality are its soundtrack, sound design, visuals, themes and stories, not to mention its accessible and satisfying gamplay loop. For those who aren't very experienced with RPG's or TTRPG's, this is a great entry point if you can give it the bit of patience it deserves. For those with a lot of experience, I reccomend doing a limited or no upgrade run, only leveling things to avoid softlocks or pursue your desired path, as this makes the resource management stricter and thus makes decisions more difficult and meaningful. This game is very cerebral, with well written and complicated descriptions, not to mention music and sound design that perfectly complement its setting and themes. You can play it once in a night and move on, or half a dozen times to see the outcomes of all the possible choices. I'm very glad the game has found success, and I hope the sequel builds on the lore and mechanics of this game.
