Cool addition to the series, your characters have a very specific vibe to them and it's very original and recognizable. I love that cool, almost like VHS filter you use. It isn't distracting and works really well with the vibe of your stories. 

I loved the battle parts, they were hard and rewarding. I'm not the best at those types of games, but I was still able to progress and that's what matters. It felt well balanced. Had a lot of fun too! The enemies felt like I could master their movements and even if something was hard, I could try again and get better each try. I'd say my only complaint is I felt myself Constantly wanting to back up and still shoot. That was a hard one to shake, cuz I'd just end up turning away and wasting ammo. But a lot of that is just a me issue, haha. 

While part of a bigger series, this one I think still makes sense just on it's own. You'd be a little lost on the nuance of the characters, but the major story beats and the battle sequences are still very fun.

Ran very smoothly, didn't run into any major issues.
