Cool. Yeah, totally understand that, balancing life with creative work is QUITE a challenge. Have you been inspired by games like Code Vein / Nier? Where did the japanese aesthetic came from as regarding your decision to have it in the game?

Fun fact, I actually hate both Nier and Code Vein.
Scarlet Nexus was the main inspiration, but I also really like Japanese culture in general.

Woah, how do they suck?
Scarlet Nexus, is there a game of it?

I'm planning to expand a tad more on the JRPG genre so I'll be sure producing more content towards this particular style!

Cool!
Yeah, there was originally a game, and then they made an anime. Personally, I prefer the game, but that's just me.
As fore Vein and Nier, mostly just personal preference. I don't like the message of Nier, and while Code Vein sounds like an amazing idea on paper, I didn't really like the execution. Sorry, I'm a harsh critic

Yeah, I understand that, I haven't played Nier but Code Vein was "too much graphics shitty game design" IMO. lol. Oh, I've just made another orchestral / electro / rock JRPG, with looots of weird time signatures!
What do you think?
Hope you're back on track with your game as well, I'm being absolutely horrible with time management and handling 2 jobs, but I'll try to play your game further!

Hey, I just played it a bit more and I think I forgot to mention but the menu's HUD color schemes are confusing, maybe you could switch it to another color when hovering over any given option. Whatever I notice besides that I'll report

Ooh, yeah, I'm working on that now. Sorry, my eyes are weird and so my UI design is always a little wonky

Just finished the demo, I didn't find the full screen option, but overall the game concept is interesting, the dialogues are refreshing too but I'd add some more nuance to all the characters, some of their phrasing seemed a bit cliche IMO. The VFX during battle is amazing btw, interesting choice of background. The music as I've mentioned is awesome, congratz to the composer. I'll surely study making this sort of dark electronic music because I really liked too, your game helped inspire me!
