Really awesome art and story. I loved the gameplay too up until the boss fights. The way comic panels are inserted to give extra depth to the pixelated actions of the characters is brilliant. Having different actions to validate the panels is a great way to make the player engage with the story rather than accidentally mindlessly skipping over things. Unfortunately, the boss fights were frustrating and having one after another immediately without any breakup was tough to deal with so I gave up after the 5th one. I found myself wrestling with the controls a lot and trying to aim and shoot the slowly building beam is unwieldy. Still, I really love the direction of this and am excited to see more!
(Oh and I played on mac and for the most part it played smoothly, but it did crash at one point, and the quit menu doesn't work so I had to force quit out of the game every time.)
