The gameplay features a unique grazing mechanic that enhances shot power when players are close to bullets, adding a fun element to the experience. While the initial gameplay may feel bland, experimenting with different characters reveals diverse mechanics that enhance replayability. Overall, despite some shortcomings in boss design and story depth, the gameplay is enjoyable and recommended for its lighthearted charm.
“The soundtrack is good, the grazing gameplay is fun, and the general story/design of the game is lighthearted.”
“There are many characters to choose from that have different mechanics from each other, adding replayability to the game.”
“But as I said, it's cute, and the gameplay is a lot of fun, so I would still recommend it overall.”
“I will say that the grazing mechanic which powers up your shots when you're close to a bullet is cool, but it's not enough on its own to redeem what is otherwise a lukewarm flop of a game.”
“As a more experienced player, I felt like the gameplay was a bit on the bland side at first, but I immediately started enjoying the game so much more when I moved away from Sonay and tried out the other characters.”
“Aside from the cast of the characters and their portraits being somewhat interesting, the story is as meaningless as you'd expect it to be, and none of the bosses stand out in terms of mechanics or patterns.”
