Nice illustration.
In my case, I was startled by the sudden event and fell into the Uncanny Valley.
Well, it's a rare case.
Not yet. There are hundreds of people who play the game, and hundreds of different things that they like, so you don't have to worry about it. Just make the game however you like.

I hope you continue to do great work.
