pretty awesome conceptually and in what it says about the arts, and specifically the RPGMaker culture existing at the time. better to make something shit and unique than something fine that's lacking originality.

however, playing it through to completion was kind of a slog. its super short, but the abrasive visuals and trivial combat system combine together to make something simultaneously overwhelming and kinda boring to play?

the soundtrack is incredible, the story and themes are pretty great, but its a game that's more fun to think about than it is to actually play i fear
