A very fun indie jrpg with one character combat. There's a lot of good combat, straightforward but can be quite complex. There's a lot of good fun trying out different builds due to the limited amount of skills and equips you can wear (5 slots of skills and consumables and 1 slot for gear!).

The plot is quite good and there are also feels! The game is quite short but sweet :D

My endgame stats were:
160 LP 107 PSY 120 AGL

However the 2nd of the extra bosses proved too difficult so I had to up it to 206 hp.

See if you can beat the game with a lower stat than me!

Ohmygoooood the Death boss was a PAIN what the heeeeck.

Instant death is bad enough, but Dizzy to keep you from using Healing skills, blargh.

And the instant death resisting accessory doesn't protect from dizzy so bleh.

I'll finish this later though, I've cleared three of the doors so far.

The story is interesting so far, though. I wonder what else will be revealed about Alice's past.

Just cleared it. For some reason, I decided to put all my force into speed at first, until I hit the bosses that could ohko me through guard while I was at max hp. Final clear stats were LP: 90, PY: 145, SP: 165. Killed the final form of the final boss in like three hits with Innocent Rain.

Mechanically, the game was deep enough to be really fun without too much complication. Storywise, the plot really hit hard. It wasn't anything groundbreaking, but they were very adept at making their stuff count.

Did you fight the extra bosses? Also there's a soft cap for agil: The fastest you can ever go is two turns per one enemy turn.

Where are the extra bosses?

I noticed that soft cap pretty early on, but even with that much speed, I wasn't able to double enemy turns. After ~3 rounds or so, they'd get a 1:1 turn which was deadly if I wasn't paying attention. On the bright side, since I could double most enemies before they got a chance to react, I could use the Corset to get 4 EC and drop a heavy nuke to ohko.
