This game doesnt differ that much from other games from this genre however that doesnt make it any less fun. It has its frustrating points that you either accept or dislike, such as slow movement speed (can be helped with upgrades) and things like timing of dropped items, but you get used to it. You can unlock levels, characters and upgrades so it does offer some replayability however this is not a game I'd see myself put 100+ hours in. I do believe it is worth it for the price though!

Control your ball through an obstacle course to reach the end. Sounds simple enough but dont worry, the movement mechanics are janky enough to make this comically challenging.
Cheating levels with momentum you get when you fall and respawn is actually more fun than doing the game in the intended way, you can skip whole levels by jumping straight to the end.

There are a few soundtracks that will play at the beginning untill the game decides youre a bad gamer, youre taking too long, you dont deserve to hear the generic tune anymore. Going back to menu and continuing where you left off brings the music back if you really want to listen to it, but only for a short while.
Going for the soft neon visuals wasnt necessarily a bad choice but the textures are constanly flickering, if you dont suffer from epilepsy yet then this game just might be enough to push it over the edge.

Game is not hiding the fact that its just an asset flip and an achievement hunting game, you get random achievement every few seconds for just randomly rolling around.

If you want to pay 3 eur to farm random achievements with 0 effort, go for it.

A small survival game you will finish in about 30 minutes. I think this might actually have a potential to be "alright" if the devs expanded the gameplay, added more islands, visible enemies, weapons and more craftables.

Youre stranded on a (not so big) island and you have to gather resources to craft a raft. You will probably die once or twice before you learn the game mechanics, water insta kills you, there are invisible mobs in the dark and cooking food could be explained better.
All in all there isnt much to do, you walk around gathering resources while cursing the tiny inventory. For your own sanity you're probably better off not wondering "why do i have 15 wood pieces filling up my whole inventory, when they could just be stacked together like in any other game".
Other than random events that kill you, the game is actually supposed to be pretty relaxing however I found gathering wood/stone via tools so slow that it actually gave me stress.
I havent found any settings to fiddle with so youre stuck with a pretty annoying camera view and slightly too loud music.

4 eur for about 1h of gameplay is a bit of an overkill in my opinion.

Fast paced puzzle solving game with pretty nice chiptune tracks that you unlock as you pass through levels.
Game lacks options to turn down the volume of music and the controls can at times be slightly janky but overall it plays quite well.

Game is so short you dont even have time for a casual poo while playing it. I beat it twice and still had to idle for 2 minutes so that i can write this review.

Music is alright if you like chiptune sounds, level design is alright if you like casual simple platformers. There are only about 6-7 levels total and you can forget about the game letting you exit after youre done, there is no "exit" button, you might aswell go for another round or 2. There is no menu, no settings to fiddle with, no turning off music, no checking controls. But hey, the bunny is kinda cute.

Priced at 1€, that basically means you pay "1 eur per minute of gameplay" because thats how long it'll take you to beat it

If youre going to play this, I would suggest you get this on a handheld device while taking a long poo as you will finish the game in 16 minutes.
This is the kind of a game you give to a toddler who isnt quite old enough to understand complex games yet, when theyre kicking and screaming and just need some screen time to calm down.
The game cant be described as good nor bad, its mostly a memory game where you match flowers. The first few missions are slightly different, one can assume their point is to test if youre paying attention and if youre a human or an AI with missions like "water this plant here" without having to think too much about it.
Music in the game is generic enough to be ignored untill the loudness of it penetrates your natural defensive noise blocking mechanism and you find yourself turning it off in settings.

All in all, this game is appropriate for children youre slowly introducing to simple videogames when theyre about 2 years old but I would not recommend it for sane adults that have access to other games.
Buy it on discount.

An asset flip game that isnt worth playing even if it was free.
Not only is the game utter garbage in terms of gameplay, level design, music, (no) options, enemies and weapons and literally anything else a game has, it is also extremely buggy and has invisible enemies that will mow you down in about 1.5 seconds.
Even if you decided to give this game a proper chance for whatever reason, you wont be able to progress far due to the mentioned bugs that follow you on pretty much every step.
Do yourself a favour and play something else, even if you received this game for free.

Won this game in a twitter giveaway from the devs.

So far i've enjoyed it, the game offers pretty asian art style and music that fits very well.
It is a rather dark graphic novel where you get to select your choices as well as perform minigames. You learn about various ingame characters (monsters) as you make tea for them - a pretty interesting way to interact with the game but unfortunately it felt a bit tedious as there seem to be a problem with clicking on items and not having it register.

I would recommend getting it on a heavy discount rather than paying the full price due to the issues players currently face in the game, such as no skipping cutscenes or dialogue, the mouse seems less responsive in certain parts (when making tea for monsters, gotta spam click everything on the screen to make it register).
I also dont recommend tabbing out during tea making ceremony with the notebook open, when i tabbed back in the notebook was stuck open on the screen and i had to blindly click around to try and get the tea cooking.

I havent finished the game yet however for those who do enjoy visual novels and pretty artstyle, they will surely enjoy this asian themed game.

Early Access Review
This is not a bad game, it certainly feels addicting for the first few minutes as you mow down countless enemies that continuously move towards you.

You get to pick a hero (you can unlock more heroes), you pick the skills and abilities and set out to kill mobs. Your attacks are triggered automatically at random, making it pretty hard to aim at a specific mob however you gain more attacks and powerups as you go, making life slightly easier against large groups of enemies.

Boss fight removes all other enemies around you, letting you focus on just that 1 enemy however due to the randomness of attacks, the fight gets rather tedious pretty fast. Boss has WAY too much health to make it fun, and you can run around it in a circle for solid xx minutes before it finally dies.

Pace of the game is pretty slow, a bit too slow for my taste - it wouldnt hurt to add some speed to mobs as well as hero, the background music is loud and unfitting, i failed to find any options to turn it off but maybe i just didnt look hard enough.

Upgrades are very expensive, for the first 1 or 2 rounds you wont be able to actually purchase any so i would suggest lowering the prices - let the players feel like there is actual progress to be made without spending whole afternoon just farming 1 single upgrade.

Bear in mind i only reached the first boss at level 1, it was fun and i dont know if further levels offer anything more but if youre looking for a chill game to kill time, this is a decent option. Also would recommend it for younger audiences still getting used to the world of gaming as it has friendly, cartoony looking world and slow pace.

Might seem interesting at first however you will probably find yourself grinding the same thing over and over again, getting nowhere. i'd give it 5/10
