Yeah! First Wario platformer!
I liked the power-up system where each power-up has it's pro's and cons. I think it's a good system. Although it's kinda off-putting if you get hit once, you go back to small Wario even you have a special power-up.
Levels were fun, although some levels felt uninspired with it's enemy placements.
I like you have secrets in this game, going to speedrun this game doesn't give you the full game. Also there's secret treasures which if i hadn't completed the game i might have tried to collect them all.
Compared to Mario, some collisions have different consequences like you don't go little if you bump into an enemy. If it has a weapon, it will. Also throwing or jumping from below the enemy doesn't make you hurt as well.
I also liked that the credits scene reflects how much treasure you've collected like in Wario Land 4.
So yeah, you like Wario Land games? You can't go wrong with this one.

Not as complex and pretty short if you don’t go game over because you need to start the whole game all over again. Enemies were unique compared to other Mario games. And you save Daisy instead of Peach? Definitely the most official Mario game that’s not Mario!

What a messed up VN. The setting is already gruesome but yet it gets worse deeper into the story. And I'm not even had gotten through with the 18+ patch (because there are scenes with Saya are IMO not something i should read due to her appearance) which would made it even more dark/gruesome.
About the story: What i like the most is how a person can be so messed up due to a change in his worlds' view. How he lived is something i will never want to live and i can definitely see why he become the way he are. It's still messed up on how that perspective can degrade the main character during the story.
The story still was an hentai though, there's hentai elements here and there even if you read the Steam version. The censorship isn't that bad, you still know what happens even though they skip all hentai scenes and censor the really explicit parts (shadow/zooming on the non-explicit parts). That's good since otherwise the gruesome stuff would be ruined a bit. Still, it's better for me to not see them for my sanity.
I think the first half was stronger than the latter half, yet it didn't stop being messed up which means i was getting accustomed to what the VN offers and the focus became more on the side characters how to deal with the main character and Saya.
I didn't feel really for MC and Saya TBH. After all what they've done and the "tragic couple" smuck. Some character designs felt "Hentai-ish" because of the female designs, it were only Koh's and Omi's designs that had this for me though.
Overall. Messed up. Not as strong as i had hoped to be in the end. Still, good story for what it was though. I do feel the story really wanted to be Saya and MC happy since the other endings considering "good" were "bad". But even still it's kinda up in the air if that was the case.
