Overwhelmingly adorable. Farming and dance-battling RPG where everything is cute and nobody gets hurt. Really great artstyle & design. An achievement worth celebrating given the small team.

[100+ hours pre-Steam] Fun with friends… for a time. Really great artstyle. Does what it says on the tin. Almost better as just background while hanging/chatting.

Stylised, super cool aesthetic and a cool setting/story. Movement feels (probably deliberately) a bit clunky to me, Suffers from the variation a roguelike desperately needs, and camera is a struggle.

Full of confidence and style, this game knows what it wants to do, and for most, probably achieves it gloriously. Personally, while it had its moments, unless you’re partial to the anime tropes, pretty painful. I’ll likely try again at some point.

Stylish, frenetic, satisfying and addictive. Combat is like a puzzle; often requiring multiple runs through a room to find routes that enable effective & efficient rotation through pickups. Very fun.

Very exciting early access roguelike absolutely brimming with potential. Wish the movement was a bit more fluid, but is still very satisfying. Expectedly has a long way to go, but is one to watch.

Really creative mechanically, combining classic pinball with topdown bullethell ‘combat’. Visuals are great, is music too - but like the game itself can get a bit repetitive. Worth it for the concept.

FPS RPG with a beautiful setting and great environmental storytelling. Lacks in memorable characters a bit and at times narrative drive, but still a very strong game and likely an instant classic.

Addictive and exciting early access start to a new roguelike. Unique movement & approach to combat are at the heart of this one, which will likely continue to raise the skill ceiling as its develops.
