the fight with dragon saved the game to me

The more I play these "underground avant-garde arthouse indie games", the more I earn for something down to earth, something more mundane and human, and not "little creepy girls saying cliche things with bad pacing"
probably what happened here is - my ability to analyze media is just not good enough, because I understood nothing (spoilers I guess: The meat? the greenery? the idea of becoming a part of something bigger and be at peace with death? it all probably connected somehow, but I have no idea)
it all felt rushed, and almost like author didn't really understood what they were trying to say? that is, if, they were trying saying anything

The writing is cliche and too crude with the way it was trying to convey its themes, the game is badly paced, art is amazing and im dumb, I don't know
I don't like shitting on small indie devs, but the only good thing I've found about this game is aesthetic, and personally for me, that just not enough

dialogues felt like they were written by a millennial
same with VA

neither fish nor fowl

imagine combining tycoon-game about building a cult and a game like Binding of Isaac
on paper that might sound fun, in reality its just two unfinished games

you go in to the dungeon - fighting is superficial
you try building your cults base - you guessed it, the mechanics are superficial

the visuals are great tho, really
buy it on sale, if you're a fan of games like Binding of Isaac

thank you for not making MC a degenerate creep

probably the best "western RenPy eroge" game out there
a lot of filler text but still very good

had to add this game to igdb myself

please play it
its free

its insane how big this game is

unironically better than a lot of Mario games

okay so
when people say that this is "best 2d zelda"
well, they're right

also, best bosses in all of the franchise
