I'm not a huge fan of typing games, and would've liked to have seen more of the fighting aspect at play, as opposed to just a skin. Also, committing to the fighting theme with an arena and the trimmings that go with it would've definitely scored some points. :smile: \n\nEDIT: To see my live thoughts, check out this recording of the livestream [here](https:\/\/www.twitch.tv\/videos\/253875862).","likes":1,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"wildcard","author_uid":"1077230","time":"2018-04-24T07:25:59Z","epoch":1524554759,"modified":1524554759,"text":"The animations, artstyle and concept is really great!
