My oh my this game was just DELIGHTFUL! I can not extol my praises for it enough, but I'll sure try to!
For starters, the artwork in this game is just AMAZING!! The style for the characters is so sleek and clean and incredibly appealing to the eye! It makes me wish this was a cartoon almost, as I'd watch every episode just to gawk at the artwork for its runtime! No art was skimped out on, either! Everything looks like it's had 110% of work put into making it look good and it really shows! The character designs are awesome flat out and compliment their style fabulously! The environments too are bright and colorful and the color choices made suit this game well. I also like the little parallax background? Is that what it is? Either way it frames the game in such a loving way and is just as appealing as all the art in this game is!
I really like the sound direction of this game too. The music matches the vibe of this game PERFECTLY. Cartoonish, a little spooky, a lot of fun. Sound effects worked well where they were utilized and helped breath a bit of extra life into the game--especially with the characters voice blips! I'm always a sucker for those!
The battle system in this game was quite unique! Not one I've really played before, so it was refreshing! I liked feeling like my actions contributed to the damage of the attack.
The characters and story of this game were nothing short of endearing. I compared this game to a cartoon earlier and honestly it feels like one--in the best way! It felt like I was playing through the pilot episode of a cartoon and it was really fun to experience. Lucy is an adorable protagonist and her little outfit change was also super cute!! I ended up spending most of my mall journey with Wil, who was such a doll--and now I wonder what it might've been like if I ventured with Vivian instead! I'll have to go back and see sometime soon!
All in all this was a WONDERFUL game and for a first game too? STUNNING!! I can't wait to see more from you! <3
