I 100% the game in about 4 hours or so, and I have to say I had a wonderful time. If you need a game that you can just beat and be done with I cant recommend this enough.

Love the concept of the game, it felt fresh and new without being to pushy on a weird mashup
The difficulty is well balanced everywhere in the game with the exception of the "Synchronous Field" boss fight, I felt a real spike in difficulty at that moment.
Loved the ambiance of the story and overall mystery around the mountain. But I'm a bit "disappointed" with the end. I feel like it's a miss opportunity for something that could have been a narrative twist, that would make you rethink the whole game.
Overall really fun game !

I thought the game was ok. Did not feel refined enough for me. The charge mechanic almost feels like it takes away from the game as it allows you to not need to time hitting a moving ball, not using it just makes everything take longer, and it makes the idea of trying to bounce balls off of a wall or another object not as useful. Plot also seemed a bit undeveloped as to the creature, mountain village and the storm.

Alright game. It has a lot of samey rooms but the game is nice and short and fine.

This game is pretty unique and I love most parts about it. The art, soundtrack and gameplay are great. I also really like the setting even though the story was mostly a thin facade. The movement feels a bit slow as your "dash" is already not that fast and then you can't even use it while charging up. So during combat you need to either fight or evade and switching back to fighting requires an energy ball near you, so it's not instant. But apart from that small complaint, I definetly had a lot of fun.
