  • Deep and compelling character interactions combined with engaging boss rush gameplay that reveals more with each playthrough.
  • Unique blend of bullet hell action, roguelike structure, and narrative depth with secrets and multiple endings that encourage replayability.
  • High-quality art, animation, and sound design paired with a heartfelt, humorous, and occasionally haunting story that resonates with players.
  • Content and secrets can be very obscure, requiring external help to fully uncover, which may frustrate casual players.
  • Some technical issues and bugs, including crashes and inconsistent hit detection, affect gameplay stability and experience.
  • Lack of a proper introductory storyline and limited casual dialogue with crew members, making some narrative elements feel incomplete or underdeveloped.
  • story
    35 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The story is gradually revealed through multiple playthroughs, blending lighthearted humor, emotional depth, and surreal elements with character-driven interactions. While praised for its engaging characters and intriguing narrative threads, some players find the pacing slow and desire more substantial story delivery or a clearer sense of progression. Overall, the story's charm and replayability are highlights, though its fragmented presentation may require patience and multiple runs to fully appreciate.

    • “The story unfolds over a sequence of loops, unfolding as your skill progresses and as you progress the plot itself.”
    • “The characters of your team and NPCs have a deep background story presented in a short and sweet way; definitely what I love the most about this game.”
    • “It's more than that; it's an emotional story about a group of friends together inside of a mech as they carve their way to the ends of the universe to make their biggest wish become a reality.”
    • “I'm not entirely certain what the story is supposed to be at this point after several hours of playing. The story starts with you (wolf) being psycho-analyzed by a female rat doctor, and this figure reappears from time to time, but it's unclear why.”
    • “Each playthrough weaves in a little more story each time, but I don't know how many times the game/creator expects me to play through the game to get the real heart of the story. I'm not saying that the story's pace needs to be any faster, but a little more substance and delivery on the meat of the story would be nice.”
    • “You get introduced to cool ideas that don't get expanded, crew members you can't interact with save for one-on-ones or specific story events, bosses you meet, kill, and never see again, a few secrets, and then the game ends.”
  • gameplay
    22 mentions Positive Neutral Negative

    The gameplay is generally praised for being engaging, smooth, and skill-demanding, combining boss rush action with dating sim elements in a cohesive and satisfying loop.
