game (download link) . The game is really good! The writing was pretty good, scenes are animated, and decent game play loop as well. The best part about the game was that the game play loop changed. It was still a tad bit repetitive, but not bad at all compared to the other games that came out this year. I was pleasantly surprised how good the game turned out to be since my expectations were low.
It makes sense that the game took so long as the game is pretty big. The 1 path I played felt like a whole game of its own. Honestly surprised how much better this game is, compared to his last game.
Game wasn't perfect tho. The intro before you start any route was quite long. Luckily I saved gazillion times (as recommended by the author at the start of the game thankfully), so I don't have to play that part again.
Though the characters were hot, the engine used to create the character felt shitty, making the characters kinda shitty. Not a big fan of the engine at all. But I could look past it.
The game definitely took inspiration from the
scathach game from fujino but better in some ways and worse in others.(Goated game btw. Try it if you like fujino's games.)
I would give it a solid 4/5. (Definitely some recency bias here since this year's games weren't that great.)
Would have given it more if there was a bit more reluctance from the FMCs.
