They’ve used the theme in a very unique way, and it feels quite refreshing! The gameplay feels well balanced overall, which makes it enjoyable to play for a sessions. At times, the progression can be a little challenging, but that actually adds to the sense of accomplishment and makes the experience more rewarding.
Overall, it’s a solid piece of work that shows real care and creativity.
One small piece of feedback: it would be great if the tutorial appeared only during the very first playthrough. For subsequent runs, instead of showing up every time, it could simply be accessible from the main menu. This would make the early game flow smoother while still keeping the tutorial available for anyone who needs it later.
