Veni, Vidi, Vici

⠀

Full playthrough here (once it uploads): https://youtu.be/3kwva2KvFfQ This game was awesome once I got used to the controls and how to play it was a ton of fun I really hope they'll be a sequel or more games in the same vein. The game has some dope pixel music and art and the puzzles were pretty interesting Parrussles the GOAT definitely pretty amazing for a free to play the only game play mechanics I would suggest if a larger game is mad in the future is adding more enemy attacks or different attack mechanics and maybe a shorter stun timer to add more difficulty and maybe some more jrpg elements with the ability to strengthen tenants through battles.

"Veni, Vidi, Vici", or, in the words of Julius Caesar, "I came, I saw, I conquered". Very emphatic and also wrong, what happened here is the developer showed up, saw Steam, demonstrated they have no idea how to conceptualize a game people might want to play, and instead of doing any market research, used their non-existed skill to hammer out a pile of garbage that was then dumped on Steam through Valve's well intentioned but disastrous "Steam Direct" program. Which failed. They came, they misunderstood, they failed. At least they're not trying to charge money for this dumpster fire. What do you do in the game? The story involves a character named Delphine trying to remember what happened to the Arderan people, fighting rhythm-based dance battles with magical creatures to gain their trust. You use the abilities of magical creatures to navigate a temple on a quest to restore fallen deities. That's the nice way of putting it. This is more accurately described as another developer hamfistedly shoe-horning "Dance Dance Revolution" mechanics into other kind of game without even considering if it's a good idea. Hint: It is never a good idea. Needless to say, this was a complete…

This game kinda gave me a headache. Generally I like to be positive with my reviews, but the bright and saturated colors along with the eight bit style of music and sounds that pierce your ears, really make for a rather uncomfortable experience

An incredibly janky, broken, and wonderfully disappointing rhythm game that breathes absolutely no life into the casual arcade genre! Stepping into a colorful world to banish corruption and gain the trust of magical creatures through barebones dance battles is every bit as frustrating and hollow as it sounds on paper.The low-effort visual design and rigid environment layouts completely fail to capture that magical, high-energy arcade energy flawlessly. On paper, balancing dynamic beat-matching with switching unlocked tenants on the fly to mix up your dance styles seems like a rewarding reflex check. In reality, the clunky execution and terrible mechanical feedback quickly turn into a boring routine that makes you want to instantly close the window.It is the absolute perfect example of a rushed indie prototype to test your patience, laugh at terrible development choices, and instantly uninstall—even for the grand price of absolutely free. A brilliant disaster that is a must-avoid for anyone respecting their time, unless you strictly want a mindless 15-minute distraction. Definitely NOT recommended!
