It's a fun little roguelite-lite-lite, compared with Tax Evasion there's a bigger focus on gameplay rather than story which I do feel is somewhat to the game's detriment.
Weirdly disappointed in Turnip Boy's transition from "Chaotic Neutral Little Bastard" to "Guy who does what he's told" but idk if that's even a valid complaint.
Short, sweet, stupid, fun.

Surely one of the most distinctive and original games ever made. Music and art are at their finest, there's plenty of enemy/boss variety, and fights feel great to masterize and beat. However, I feel that customizing options aren't all as useful as they could be (Some of them feeling really good, while others feeling really bad), and sadly, Run & Gun phases ended up feeling a bit tedious to complete, and not as fun as boss battles.
Even with that, it's a hell of a game that anyone should try at least once.

co op with darby, weirdest playthru of my goddamn life. we struggled a lot with the blob and the rat and not a lot on the dragon or the robot. my punishment for playing this game for over 100 hours was having to deal with remote play lag. death count 477. loved our time would do it again, which is insane considering ive replayed cuphead more then ive done most things

[Retro Review. Last Played 2021]
I've thought about this game for the better part of 2021 and some of 2022 even. I've heard a lot of valid critiques partially of the game's combat, pacing, and ending. Still I cant ignore how this game made me laugh, scream and cry. It wears it's Mother and Yume Nikki inspirations with pride to create a truly charming and surreal experience. I stayed up from midnight to 9am finishing this game on a Saturday. I cried my eyes out.

Amazing story and atmosphere that keeps you on your toes throughout the entire experience. It can be a bit jarring at times when you remember it’s a horror game and not a fun adventure, plus with so many detours from the main story, Omori seems to pad some of its game out to make it longer. Still a great story.

The finale absolutely makes this game. It can drag at points and the dialogue can seem a bit trite, but it's worth sticking with it. It's worst sin is that it is in need of some overall editing, but its strengths come with some charming art, banger soundtrack, strong thematic content, and a great last few hours of gameplay. I found myself wishing for more surreal and important moments sprinkled throughout the middle sections of it. It can be frustrating and drawn out at times, but overall its hard not to give it a high score. Yes, the finale is that good.
