What players say

Players praise the combat system's fluid air combos and the mix of melee and ranged weapons. Many compare it favorably to the Mega Man ZX series. While the pixel art and 3D cutscenes are a highlight, players split on the writing, with some calling it charming and others criticizing it as overlong and saccharine. Several note the game is deceptively hard despite the cute aesthetic.
