[h1]Needs a...[/h1] [i](see publisher)[/i] [b][u]Game Is:[/u][/b] H side-scrolling action platformer. [hr][/hr] [+] The heroine art is very good with nicely done 2D animations and physics. [+] The H is pretty enjoyable, however the game is really easy so you have to actually try to lose to see it. [+] The combat is surprisingly good, it has quite a lot of moves with a variety of weapons. However, having a full weapon loadout makes you comically more powerful than the enemies so the game isn't particularly difficult. [-] The game can be a bit janky overall, stuff like certain menus not stopping character input. These don't ruin the experience but it's still noticeable. [-] The level design can be pretty bland and some of the longer stages can get kinda repetitive. [hr][/hr] [b][u]Summary:[/u][/b] A surprisingly good action platformer with nice 2D animations and enjoyable H, although a bit on the easy side. [b][u]Tip:[/u][/b] It seems to best be played with a controller.

It has a crap (No pun intended) sewer level. Why do games LOVE sewer levels? WHY do sewer levels always have to be convoluted? It's a sewer, not the Minotaur's Labyrinth of ancient times. Sewer levels suck. The fact that you have to casually jog across the entire map to climb and descend said sewer instead of sprint makes it even worse. I hate sewer levels.

I think this game is just okay... Is not too fun and not too bad. Is not too hard until you try hard mode. The stroy is..., no important. I though this game can change character once you finish the story but nope. The most fun is the arena. The thing I will not recommend is buy this game in full price...

The Good: Controls are relatively tight and there are a lot of weapons you can equip as your floaty arsenal to slice, dice, bash, and shoot your enemies. The animations aren't terrible. Sound design isn't bad either. You can R-18 patch the h-animations in just by googling R18 and the game name and downloading the patch. It's really easy to install as well. The Meh: The animations are very short, limited, and repetitive. Most of them are exactly the same positions and animations, just with different enemies. I thought I saw the R-18 patch mention harder animations...but I didn't see anything harder than swiping with a weapon. The Blah: Either a lot of enemies don't have an h-animation, or there are just bugs getting them to trigger. Several of the bosses just stand atop you and spam their attacks, doing nothing else. Some enemies, like the worms and spiders, do so little damage and can't seem to knock you down...so you can't see their animations. There are sections, like the basement and sewer levels, where you are running down super long corridors. Often times there aren't even enemies...so it just makes me ask WHY? To make things worse, there are multiple exits to some of the sublevels down there, and you can't even open a map to see where you should go. Sometimes context clues GO ----> pop up, but you can't really always rely on them to be there. The Verdict: It's an alright game. I wouldn't really spend much more than like $5-8 on this. Animations haven't been good enough, frequent enough, or reliable enough to warrant paying full price. If I could, I would give this a neutral rating.
