I want to get into my appreciation of the game characters and story, but something that I haven't seen people point out in this game is the AMAZING and sublime LGBTQ+ representation.

As a rookie pixel artist, everything about the game's presentation amazes me and really warms my heart with its very unique atmosphere and graphics.

I really like the gameplay, even though it's just fetch quests haha.

The game also has a very good soundtrack, it always captures the feel of the moment perfectly.

Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
However, I do appreciate that someone made an RPG-ish kinda thing that *doesn't'* have combat as the core mechanic.

Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
Luckily, a chapter doesn't last long and can be replayed anytime in the menu, yet I couldn't stop in the middle of playing.
