Thanks for waiting! There are still a few known bugs, but I’ve finally decided—it’s update time! I’ll be rolling out a new demo build in the next few days!🎉✨

Thanks! I’ve been trying to keep things light, so happy to hear that!

Yay! Thanks😆

Here’s what I’ve got working in my current dev build! Counters, familiars — all that stuff is already in. Even at this stage, having this many actions makes it really fun to mess around with.
進捗報告！

I’m using Unity! Running on URP!

Right? I love these tiny chibi‑style characters!😍

Thanks! ChokoNana was my very first Steam project. It’s definitely a bit rough, but I made it with all the energy I had back then!😁

FrostWall is a strong MP‑based guard move that shoves monsters away, blocks projectiles, and doubles as a clean getaway option!
通常ガードの他に氷壁を召喚するガードを実装！

Whoa, nostalgia hit! I just found an old video of a game I was working on — it’s so fun seeing it again!
懐かしい動画出てきた！

Totally worth the effort! 👍

Thanks!

You thought you were safe? Foolish.

I figured, hey, if I’ve got back attacks, I might as well have a move that actually gets you behind the enemy!
So I added one — and wow, the flow feels so much better now!

Her name is Cocoryne! It's pronounced like Koko‑ree‑neh.✨

Added a simple guide and a small sub‑quest!
The test item is placed super close.

The core is finally coming together — time to speed things up and aim for that “Wait, one person made this?” quality!

Thanks! This is the town that’s planned to be the main hub!

Yay!✨

Thanks!

I totally forgot to post this! Thanks for checking in on me!

Sorry for the late update — totally forgot to post!
Still tweaking a lot of things, but it’s really starting to come together!
Managed to add way more NPCs while keeping the load super low — easily the toughest challenge so far!

Demo update is live!🎉
Check the announcements for details. Still lots to tweak, but I’m super grateful for all your support—thank you! 🙏✨
デモ版を更新しました！お時間のある時に試してもらえたら嬉しいです！

I think it depends on what the player’s goal is at the time. If someone just wants to pass through, being forced into combat can feel frustrating. But even those who skip fights might eventually hit a wall and decide to level up through combat instead.

Most encounters use this setup, though a few are different. Combat’s totally optional, so you can skip it if you want.
I just thought it’d be nice to have some kind of goal, since enemies were showing up anyway!

Glad you liked it—thanks so much!

✨Just added a new feature! When you enter a battle zone, a glowing blue line marks the boundary—and you’ll see your defeat rate progress in real time! Bonus rewards planned when you leave the area… 👀
What do you think? Would love your thoughts!

Thanks so much! Reviews like that really help me grow, so I truly appreciate it!😆

Thank you so much — this game was developed solo!
Thanks so much for wanting to share feedback!
The best place to post is on the Steam Community page for the game — it helps others join the conversation too!
If you prefer a private message, feel free to reach out via [artworkers2016@gmail.com].

Thanks! The music and models are external assets, but I did everything else myself!

Sorry for the late reply, and thank you so much for your kind words! I’ll keep refining the game to make it truly worthy of attention.

Hey hey! Here's what I'm working on lately:
・Way more monsters on screen 🔥
・Major performance tweaks to keep things smooth (this one's the biggie!)
・Fixed combo lag for snappier action
・Re-implemented dodge mechanics

Polishing it day by day!
