this demo was really fun! shame working on the game ended up being too much for you though.
The creature collection aspect wasn't something I was expecting, but it was a really fun mechanic, even if some creatures ended up being unbalanced.
Regular combat encounters felt short enough to not be tedious, while still letting me pull off some fun plays with whatever moves I had!
assuming the save disks would've been the equivalent to star pieces in ttyd, I really like how they're placed, though this is admittedly a small thing to point out lmao
the demo also never felt grindy to me, even when I was trying to get all my recruits to 3-star, probably a mix of the short combat and generally nice feel to it.
overall, really enjoyed the game, thanks for making this demo even if you might not finish it!
