I feel like this would make a great mobile game. Maybe even some kind of AR project

As someone whoâs kind of tired of SRPGs, I donât mind the flat arenas - the goal seems to be streamlining the combat decision-making Midnight Suns/Into the Breach style and I feel like theyâre onto something here - and I do like some of the oldschool gaming things they fetishize (esp all the Persona 1/2 things).
But yeah, the Neon White-adjacent tone of Americanized JP popculture, the lack of atmosphere and friction with the world, the fantasy of urban horror being too abstract for me too care, UI/UX/font issues, words words words (most of them cliche and/or unengaging)⊠Iâve been cautiously excited, and still want to give a shot, but this kind of demo should reassure me that they know exactly what experience theyâre aiming for at this point of dev, and it mostly made me worried that they donât

i will give this a try because while
american jrpg is still exciting to me, even though iâve never played one (or seen one) that makes me lustful for it.
anyway, love the persona 1/2-isms, love the 3d boss in a flatter world like its out of breath of fire iv, but âstreamlined srpgâ (especially one with a flat square grid) makes me think of something like grindstone or card of darkness or another threes-ified phone strategy game. maybe tactics games shouldnât be slow, but being frictionless seems ill-advised. need a descriptor like the once-tried âcrunchâ but for perfect chunky, going-forwards-and-back menu-rhythm before the final confirm press and your little tactics sprite goes and does your little bidding. well. i will actually go and see about this game. maybe.

I had no idea this existed. definitely the kind of dumb shit Iâd play if I saw one in the wild. I wonder if itâs any good.
