- I was honestly very impressed with this game! Even though the translation was a bit hard to understand at times, I got the general idea and it was really a pleasure playing. The game loop was quite engaging once I figured it out. Some critiques though are that the items should show up for a time so you have a better idea of what item you got. Also something caused a lot of lag while riding the boat at times, that could be optimized a bit. All and all though really solid entry.
- The whole intro sequence is very cute, simple and effective. Everything made sense and was clear of what to do next. Not a huge fan of some camera angles, some of them are a bit weird to navigate. The Peach Blossom Forest although pretty, was murdering my FPS. For the combat part: why attacking is even an option if it always hits zero? It really made the combat feel dull instead of making stones an option, they became a necessity. It was really boring forcing to grab more and more stones because otherwise I couldn't fight back. The combat also seemed way unbalanced, Bride causes 70 dmg, vamp steals 5 HP but a single stone causes only 7. The TP system being some sort of stamina system is interesting concept, but felt depth, because I never got to the point of it reaching zero. Overall, its a nice game that just needs more polishing and could be a very enjoyable experience.
- This game is so unique and fun, the mix of different styles was wonderful! Could certainly use a better english translation, but don't worry too much about it

This is such an incredibly charming experience. I love the characters' personalities and the ease of gathering materials for crafting. The animations use are really great. I look forward to more development!!
thanks! All play styles I like, I will continue to develop them in the future.
Thank you for your comment (roast), and look forward to your video of clearance game (please give me more more more roast, I like it). As a first-time game developer, I am very happy to receive such a high rating although poor English translation and bugs.
