Kira Kira Magical Stars

Good game. It stays very close to the original GBC hardware but makes some improvements which are much welcome. I haven't tried hard mode yet, but I feel like the difficulty is just right on the normal level. Nice cohesive art, music themes, sound, and writing.

absolutely wonderful game (and maybe a lesbian's paradise, too) pretty challenging but not punishingly difficult. jumping feels tight, combat is fun. overall a very well polished feeling game. totally worth its pricetag

It's cute! Maybe not a 6 dollar price tag game, but on sale at half off, it's really cute and nice! If you're looking for some really action packed game that's just using a GBC look, you aren't going to find it here. But what you will find is a game that honestly, you could've told me this was just some old GBC game ported to steam and I'd believe you. It's simple, it's casual, it's cute, and its fun! Can definitely recommend if you want something nice for just an hour or two.

If you're the kind of person that believes in the "dollar per hour" test, I wouldn't pick this game up - it took me just under two hours to complete on medium (I'd suggest playing on hard). That being said, I think it's still a worthwhile homage to GBC titles of years previous. It's a simple little game and the stages could definitely use more variance - but it's got charm and was worth the time anyway. Sylvia's special melts bosses, and the final boss seems designed for the starting character's special.

Cute and charming. Really captures the look and feel of an old game boy color game. Excellent music. All of characters feel unique and are fun to play. Has a good difficulty curve, and enough challenge to be engaging without getting frustrating.

It's NOT a bad game, but there's some certain problems that ultimately made me feel like this game could have more potential. It's a quite dead simple third person action game featuring cute girls trying to save their town from the demon queen who has summoned her troops, and the game is designed to feel like one of those average Game Boy action games. What gives away from this game is that you can jump to reach and destroy enemies that are uplifting away from the ground, which is what most third person retro games don't have. Defeating each boss of a stage unlocks a playable character that has a different ability and a special 'smart bomb' ability. What's not that actually bad are the graphics and music, but some of it is pretty loopy because of the unusual length of the stages Now, the problems: The stage design is one of the major problems i've come across. They're overly long and give very little variance, with a little exception on two certain stages. Boss design isn't bad but pretty basic and you can't dodge bullets by jumping. When you get damaged, your character happens to get stuck often at the enemy's collision box and you will have to jump away. Lastly, the final sta…
