The art was fantastic and the mood in a dark forest really worked and brought me into the game. The game was fast and engaging and you always had to do something. That being said,\nI think it was way too hard, with shinng constantly losing essence and everytime you went to collect more a monster would attack and you would lose. (Or I just suck at the game:I) The hitbox for the monsters were a bit clunky, but nothing major. So outstanding game overall, if a bit too difficult.

I did not realize shiny *needed* the energy until after I completed the game, but I had been doing that anyway. My main issue with the game was that hit boxes\/hit detection felt a little strange. Facing left and right it was a littler awkward getting my timing right to take down the enemies, but I did adapt to it as I went along.\n\nThe art is pretty cute, though the 2D\/3D thing probably didn't help me with figuring out the hit detection. When I got hurt, the screen turned a little too red for my tastes, making it a little too hard tro see things. Rather than tinting things red, it feels like a semi-transparent layer of red was dropped on top of the screen. The sound that plays when you recharge Shiny was very harsh and could've used some equalizing of the specific frequencies that caused that shrill effect.\n\nNice work!","likes":3,"format":"md"},{"author_name":"Maskrosen","author_uid":"1074944","time":"2020-04-22T18:03:36Z","epoch":1587578616,"modified":1587578616,"text":"Really beautiful graphics and interface.
