I did not receive either chess or magical girls :( I enjoy soulslikes very much and I think this could be good with adjustments. Enemies attack too fast for dodging to be practical and having to wait for the entire attack recovery animation to end before being able to act is extremely painful. The game progression also broke for me; I was able to open the gate that required the skull key without actually obtaining it, but then I died and returned after actually collecting the skull key, and had no idea how to use it. The door wouldn't let me through. I do hope you continue work on this at some point though. There is a solid core here.
