is honestly a pretty fun little game, especially considering it feels like a quickly made indie project. The characters are lovely, their designs are neat, and the overall vibe is charming. I enjoyed the story and, of course, the fan service. It has personality, and that goes a long way.

That said, the gameplay really needs more polish.

Combat is simple and can be fun at first, but it lacks depth. I really wish there were more combo options and more developed fighting mechanics. Something closer to Dusk Diver in terms of combo variety would have helped a lot. Right now, the gap between characters is also too large in terms of balance. Majet, for example, is clearly stronger than the others. Her second right-click attack has long range, and you can clear stages very easily by just repeating a simple two-hit smash.

There are also some technical issues. Sometimes when using Rage Arts, if your character overlaps with an enemy, the attack animation goes above them and completely misses. The camera distance cannot be adjusted, which makes some fights feel awkward. The English text also cuts too quickly to the next line, so you sometimes miss part of the dialogue. I assume this is because Korean sentences are shorter, but it still affects readability.

Content-wise, the game is very limited. You can clear a stage with a single character in under 30 minutes. It feels more like a small prototype than a fully fleshed-out hack and slash. The outfits are cute, but the DLC pricing feels a bit high considering it is mostly just skins.

Despite all that, I still had fun with it. It has potential to become a short but enjoyable hack and slash with cool anime characters if the gameplay is expanded and polished. I really hope the developer continues improving it, fixing bugs, and adding more depth.

I honestly wish Steam had a middle-ground review option, because this game sits right there. For now, I will leave a positive review in the hope that the developer builds on this foundation and makes it even better.
