If this game has told me anything its that we absolutely need more classic jrpg inspired indie games.

Sea of Stars is a great tribute to the classics, from its beautiful pixel art to its catchy music id highly recommend this one for fans of the genre. While I did enjoy Sea of Stars story, unfortunately the characters just weren't it for me, while the game does introduce interesting characters later on the first 3 you start with (aka the main characters) were so bland that I couldn't form any connection to them which really hindered the story for me. They react to things so generically and have barely any personality that they really needed to go back to the drawing board for the main leads.

Gameplay is really fun and addictive with the interactivity keeping you engaged for quite a while.. until it doesnt. Each character only has 3 abilities which can get pretty repetitive for some people, they really needed to give more abilities (5 minimum) and space unlocked them out more evenly.

Despite my complaints though this game is really solid and the fact I still enjoyed it as much as I did should say a lot, hopefully for this teams next RPG venture they iron out these things as they know how to make a game with a lot of charm.
