A true idle game.

... I actually don't have much to comment on, besides that I don't understand the primary mechanic/concept presented. I mean I don't even see it.

Guess I'll leave the showcase I made of it here anyway:

there's something intensely comedic about the timing with which marisa immediately tackles cirno off the left side of the screen, pausing for a beat where the visible playing field has no characters on it, only for a victory screen to appear a moment later

also poor remi having her house invaded for basically no reason (does feel in-character for gensokyo tho)

also liked how the main menu/background changed after reaching the ending, nice small detail that i almost didn't notice

Unfortunately the characters kept going off the screen for me and I couldn't figure out how to play, so I wasn't able to progress past the first stage. From what little I saw though, I like the art style and what the gameplay might be with some more development. Would definitely return to this after an update.

I bounced Cirno off the screen and spammed space until I won. Kinda wish I knew what to do, like controls-wise, but I spam space and win so that's okay

What's there is fun and cute, but short. The gameplay might be a little mindless, but it doesn't get boring since it's so short, so I can't really comment on it beyond that.

i have no idea how it works but i really like the way they bounce and especially just throwing meiling against the gate continuously

there are a lot of talksprites and they are all nice. good slam jam simulator

There's something nice about seeing the characters bounce off each other. I couldn't find any instructions on how to play so I just pressed space whenever Marisa bounced into anything, and managed to win. It feels like there's some deeper strategy, and it looks interesting.

Sorry if the instructions were somewhere and I just missed them.

Best wishes,

Rumlo
