Hello,
Thank you for this gift.
Have you gotten any feedback from the Itch.io admins, because I was hearing conflicting rumors, such as payment not being given to those who purchased games because of violation of terms, to games completely being removed, to even accounts being banned for constant violations.
If you could give me any extra information I would be very appreciative, I put in a ticket to ask them to change my page from NSFW to SFW, seeing as my games seem to have been delisted or hidden, but haven't gotten a response back on the matter.
For those who are wondering:
This game is a remake of my Meridian Dance game that I made years ago.
For those who purchased that game, you get the remake for free, which has a lot of quality of life improvements, as well as new scenes and a more streamlined battle system.
If there are any issues, please let me know on my discord, as I am much easier to reach there.

Hey all, for all who are interested, I made a spiritual successor to this game.
A good game with some glaring flaws.
Pros:
Gorgeous scenery.
Very beautiful characters.
A nice soundtrack.
Animated sprites.
Cons:
A convoluted battle system that asks for a lot and gives very little in return. (Do you gain stats as you level, because while I was fighting I didn't see much change from level 1 to level 8.)
Too many pieces of equipment and spells and stats and debuffs and buffs. I was actually getting annoyed at how much I was being asked to keep up with, all the while wondering if I was getting more powerful as I leveled up.
Very bland characters who feel like they fit an archetype more than a narrative.
A plot that is almost non-existent.
An empty world that doesn't feel like it has anything in it, despite how pretty it is.
Oddity:
There is a card game in here that is...fine. I guess. Not a card game fan, so don't get much the point.
A rhythm game that halted my progress...mostly because I am bad at them, which is my fault.
Codex. In theory, very nice. In practice, it demands reading information to understand who is who and why is 'that thing' there, and I skipped it.

Playing this game, I was left wondering several things, one of which was, what the point of what we were doing was, because for as action pack as the narrative begins, it almost immediately grinds to a halt minutes afterwards, and I do minutes.
While playing the demo I was left wondering what my overall goal was with regard to everything happening, and then I realized about 2/3rds the way in that this story is basically a wish fulfillment fantasy much along the lines of Twilight. And I don't say that to be cruel or mean or derisive, I say that because the main character is a nearly helpless maiden who is saved by this imposing wolfman, and ends up with him, because she has no other goals or motivations. And he...is there because he needs to be, he himself has no other goals or motivations outside of basically being her VERY obvious boyfriend in the making, a four character in the storyline actually comments on this and when the wolf and maiden got flustered I felt myself sigh before I heard it.
Now, to be fair, this isn't a bad thing, for a starting storyline, since it does show the characterization very well, but it feels so...pedantic, like this was done by the numbers for the sake of making a very clear YT romance story. However, because that's all there is to it, there's no depth to the relationship, no value to the heroine and hero being together, because, yeah, they are going to end up together, very clearly, but...as a viewer I'm left asking...'so what?' Why should I care, when they do anything more outside of being together.
A narrative like this DEMANDS action from both characters in order to better define them, but without a strong plot there is no motivation to see their storyline through, and so I stopped...
...specifically at the 'rhythm game' where you have to press the buttons in order to find the MoonBlossom. No. Just...no. I shouldn't be forced to play a new type of game like this just to progress. It's gatekeeping the rest of the game for no reason.
Hi.
I purchased this battler pack a few weeks ago and have been enjoying myself with it, so thank you for all the hard work in its creation and implementation to this site.
A question I had for you regarding your next pack, if I may?
Had you ever thought about creating an sci-fi alien themed monster/character pack? The reason I ask is that I am honestly curious to see what you can create, as there is not much like that here on itch.io, or too many other places.
Hey there!
Just purchased your bundle - really great buy, thanks for the offer - and was just wondering, are you ever going to make a furry/monster portraits pack? I was thinking about this because it would be really cool to have portraits of creatures like centaurs, werewolves, kitsune, dragons, gryphons and so on as characters in game.
