While not my thing, the hard work really shows and the animations are smooth with little repeating. Excellently done!

It'll probably be an instant 5/5 once Zu hits the scene. In all seriousness, keep up the good work and don't burn out. At least not until Zu's scene is out =p

Am I high or something? Haven't I seen this exact novel somewhere years ago?

Definitely some aspects that seem a little excessively grindy, but these running games typically live on that element.

Love your writing as always, character wise and.. scene wise ha. Dargogai has the same voice as Dargai from TLS for me, since I'm now roleplaying them as the grandson.

I'm mainly writing a response to contradict Azureless, because while I certainly see the points to their summary, I think this is a difference of playstyle. I know people who swear TLS is impossible without Yarra and Varia, but I never use them. I double stack Carina and Qum for the slow buff and double heal game, and I feel like that review reflects this perfectly.

They're the burn them down high risk high reward, but I feel like the slow, safe, and steady way in this game works, too. Unless I'm going for a specific goal, my bread and butter (in order) is spawn frequency, stun, slowdown, sharper spikes, and so on in cc importance. A slow start with a couple of repeats necessary, but since then it's been pretty smooth sailing.

My one criticism would be the ceiling spike drop, it almost feels out of synergy with the rest, since his aim is not only affected by the position of the runner, which determines side spike ball and bottom spike trap, but it's also affected by the speed of the runner I feel like. If I'm wrong, ignore my placebo, but I feel the drop horizontal travel distance almost punishes the player for having runningman slowed/speeding back up.

Excellent job, and appreciate all of the work you do!
