I feel that I need to also add a short response being that I had some critiques when I first came across the game and you seemed to have taken the feedback to heart, I hope I did not come across as entitled or dissatisfied with the project, quite the contrary I am loving every bit of it and hope that it keeps getting better with each step.
I played the new release as soon as it came out but had not had the time to write a review and today while checking updates I saw this post and felt compelled to add my own bit, the new release and changes were awesome, I agree with OP that the unique mechanics makes it so its more fun to seek unusual party members and use team comps that you normally would not use, I had quite a blast with the new boss encounters and even struggled a bit with Deoxys and Froslass (wiped to Froslass like twice xD), there is so much to do besides the main story and the personality that each of the main pokemon have its wonderful, I quite enjoy teasing Misdreavus, as always the art is peak and the fact that all H scenes are optional makes it good to be able to play this without worry that any family member its going to find me on an odd scene xD.
All in all I wanted to thank you for the project, the passion and the commitment that you are putting into it, I already did my dues and contributed a bit purchasing the new release and hope to see more from you, keep the good work!
