My level of enjoyment was all over the place with this one. Started out really captivated by it, but every time I finished an act and switched characters my enthusiasm got a little lower. I was kinda bummed that after getting used to a character had finally connecting with its fighting style and story I had to switch to a new one.

However, the final act brought it all together beautifully and I really love the final 1-2 hours with Arco.

Really interesting story from a few different angles you don't usually get to see. Even the combat was a fun challenge and I don't usually go for this sort of turn-based action. Also the songs at the end of each act hit hard and were very beautiful.

Over all a good game with ups and downs but it sticks the landing.

After a couple of hours, I'm really enjoying this game more than I thought I would. My only gripe is that I really wish it had Spanish language support.

Alright an update on this: I REALLY like the combat here. It took a second to to understand completely but it's kind of like Minimalist Pixel RPG Super Hot? However: do NOT get this game on switch. Frames drop like crazy in intense battle, the music (which is awesome) rarely plays properly, and I've had multiple blue screen crashes (which I straight up didn't know could even happen on switch). You should absolutely play this game but PLEASE get it on PC (assuming it's running better which I assume it must)

I'm super here for the concept of this game, and Franek has cannot miss with art. But in it's current state (on switch at least) it's pretty buggy, especially with audio. Curious if other people have tried on other platforms with better results
