    I do think that because the game took a risk on having no dialogue and mostly no text it could've had more work on being more intuitive and the ui being easier to understand

    overrated. I don't know wtf is even going on half the time and the fights seems so 1-dimensional: there's one way you 'solve' each of them. Beyond that it relies on retro graphics and a score by the maestro... not enough to carry this as a great game

      "theres one way you 'solve' each of them" i think it rules that this is a puzzle game

    Phenomenal game. The vague, unintuitive UI is a feature, not a bug. The visuals and music are outstanding. It all contributes to a world that is singularly unfamiliar and totally unique. The mechanics and gameplay are simple enough to understand in spite of this, and the gameplay loop is just pure fun. I really, really enjoyed this; this is what indie games should be.
