Game looks great, needs a little bit of optimization, Nice art-style and theme implementation.

That was an expirience for sure! Quite an interesting concept, that i really hasn't fully understood... The loadout system is wide and interactive. Graphic style is not my thing but still its sertantly unique!

This game was a standout experience! The art style was truly impressive, especially the seamless fusion of 2D and 3D elements—it added a unique visual flair. The music set the mood very well. Combat mechanics were satisfying, although I must confess, I struggled to summon the meteorite despite numerous attempts. The thematic integration was cleverly executed, particularly in the absence of a traditional boss design, where the player essentially becomes the boss facing enemies with similar abilities. Overall, I found myself thoroughly immersed and thoroughly enjoyed the game. Great work!
