Another Sylvie banger! I don't think I'm the target audience for this one, but there's a lot in here that I thought I would hate but ended up loving. I'm usually not into grinding in games and that usually puts me off of a lot of RPGs, but I think because of the bite-sized nature of this one, it felt more like a puzzle? "How do I make the next area as much of a cake walk as the previous area?" It felt satisfying.
And of course, the caves just make everything a lot more fun and mysterious. When I figured out what to do with the bunny I was beaming.
I just couldn't get past the last(?) boss - that was way too shmuppy for me and I can't dodge a bullet to save my life, even with the mystery shield. Having said that, everything else felt super fair and the bump combat felt great! I loved all the easter eggs in the caves and trying to figure out what was just an easter egg vs an actual clue felt great.
I haven't dug into the design notes yet but I'm really looking forward to that!
