I used to be classmates with Muraseki when we were younger! He and the rest of the team did an awesome job — love the game! Super proud of you guys!

battle system really isn't the best, perhaps a rhythm mechanic like fnf could work, cause rn it can be a little frustrating

Really satisfying experience. Great game, great art. The dialogue about the arrows was hilarious.

Despite everything, it's still you.

This game gives me Undertale and Deltarune vibes. Both games I love, so good job!

its a really really good game! the art design and music is comfy, but i have a little problem...when im fight why should press A and B!!!! its painful to press the button with long distanceTT i admit my hand is not flexible enough to do the job:( hope we can have another button to press

you can use the keys “j, k” instead :)

The "A" and "B" threw me off a lot because they aren't arrows, and doubly because I was on keyboard.

I'll never forget you... Rocky the Rock? Was there supposed to be an additional cutscene, or did Rocky just want to be remembered? Oh yeah, and that Ashley girl was cool too, I guess.

Came back to this game to check out the update, and because I forgot the girl's name! 😂 Awesome game, but it seems like the game is still under-developed. Love the new boss, some items and the new inventory system were pretty cool, but didn't have any uses. Also, WHERE IS ROCKY??? I played through 3 times, but I couldn't find him anywhere! That was my favorite side-character! 😭😭😭
