While I do commend you for trying to do something different, I can honestly say I am not a fan. I did not find the "Medyuu" interpretation of Medusa as endearing at all; to me, the cutesy character does ot do the intelligent, brave and strong mythological Gorgon justice. The butchering of the mythological characters' names (poor Medusa, Stheno and Euryale in particular!) was very weird. I'm very much a fan of Medusa and many retellings of her story (and I understand all retellings and reimaginings have drastically different plots, that's not at all anything against you and is very necessary!) I just wasn't fond of the game in general. That does not reflect anything but my own tastes and defininitely is not intended to be a bad thing in any way-- many game developers (and movie producers, musicians, etc) I like a lot do end up making something I'm not a fan of. BUT! I can see that a lot of time and work was invested in your game, the graphics were very charming and because I am quite curious, I'm going to try a few of your other games, since I can see you do have promise as a developer~ =) I hope you continue making games whenever you can !

Hello! Thank you so much! It’s great to see different opinions about our game, and we’re glad some parts still impressed you!
About the names—we changed Gorgon's sister’s name to move away from the original mythology, which lets us explore new possibilities for our world. That said, we agree Medyuu, Sthreese, and Emilya might not be the perfect choices, haha.
It’s always awesome to meet another Medusa fan! If we get the chance, we’d love to create a game focused on the original mythology of Medusa!
