This game has so much potential, and I'm extremely disappointed by the lack of polish. The music and visuals are wonderful, but the gameplay is unrefined and poorly executed. The most disappointing thing is that I can see glimmers of excellent ideas! The combat concept in the game is really interesting, but the death animations for each of the enemies don't match up with the action at all. Also, controllers simply don't work with this game at the time of my review, leaving you with an acceptable but still awkward keyboard control scheme. To make things worse, the keyboard controls are inconsistent throughout the game menus! Also the voice acting, when it shows up, is really not very good—there's no acting being done, just reading, and that's another big disappointment for me.

Ultimately, this game had everything it needed to be a new favorite for me, but it just fell completely flat (ha!) on its face.
