Another game that feels very ambitious, but doesn't offer much gameplay. The island is pretty and fun to explore for a few minutes. The combat is OK I guess. There is a short delay after most animations, and no input buffering, which makes it feel clunky. I feel like it could play really great with a good controller mapping, but the current one is complete nonsense and I didn't feel like setting it up myself. So keyboard and mouse it is. I didn't find a way to change it, so I was stuck with a really high mouse sensitivity. I don't really like using 1234 to cycle through different attacks, having it be contextual depending on the player movement and enemy position would be a huge improvement. Speaking about enemies, the battles feel a little dull; the enemies don't give much feedback and there aren't any sound/visual effects to make you feel like you're hitting something.

As a prototype the graphics look striking, but the gameplay leaves much to desire. I have to say I love the idea of a magical girl hack-n-slash action game, so it'll be interesting to see you take this concept further.

yeah Im not too happy with the end results for the combat, it needs a lot work still, I think there should not be a delay code wise, but maybe the animations are not "snappy" enough, I'll have to debug what the source is but yeah maybe input-buffering might be a part of the solution, good call out. 

Sorry about the controller mapping lol, I only tested that it worked but never really played with it so maybe it was garbage sorry. I did provide the mapping stuff, but as you point out I totally spaced out on sensitivity sliders ! This is a great point and I will definitely add them in the future.  

Hmm about the feedback, there should have been sounds and animations to provide SOME feedback... I know it was minimal, but I just really ran out of time on this, but let me know if you had no sounds or anims at all ! 

I'm working on a bigger project which will take a lot of this and has magical  girl hack-n-slash action, so hopefully once its polished it will meet your expectations ! 

Thank you for playing and the feedback !
