Game makes no sense being a rogue-lite it should just be restart-able chapters, this would also come with the benefit of being able to have more complex puzzle like stages rather than the rather basic levels we have instead.

The game is way too narrative for a roguelite hearing the same dialogue and very specific story just does not work repetitively.

The story itself is also pretty crap, vague and pretentious tumblr fanfic style writing. Its about the main girl and her emotional trouble with her friends and family but its so vague and shallow that if it wanted an emotional pull to it I did not land for me.

All the characters have their pronouns shown besides there name everyone is normal except Desta who is non-binary, but its weird it doesn't really matter so much in the story except for one guy who calls her "She" one time and immediately becomes all sappy when he is correct then stops, like that's not conflict that's not an interesting character. also the game lets you skip this entire 'altercation' if you want, like if you are going to do a missgendering plot have the courage to commit to it you cowards.

In summary Gameplay is alright but basic, level design is boring and uninspiring, Rogue-lite elements actively work against this game, and the story is sappy fluff. overall I would suggest skipping this.
