Good short adventure with strongly designed bosses and awesome trap-heavy platforming. Atmosphere reminds me of REBELLION, and in a similar way i wish that Hibikusuku can be longer

I really loved this game, it has a lot of funny traps which always take you by surprise even if you've seen stuff like them before. The platforming is also just fun which makes it really engaging beyond just simple traps. The bosses are pretty good too, first one is a little dumb but the second one was really good. All in all, amazing fangame!

Really had a mixed bag of feelings for this one. It is obviously very pretty, the visuals are top-notch and have a clean aesthetic to them that makes the game look wonderful. The additional theme of the red runes every so often added a familiar obstacle you can expect throughout the game, and I love that.
What I don't love is the bosses, who have way too much health for what they are, and a large majority of their attacks being completely obnoxious. The first boss has a huge hitbox on his arms, which leads to a terrible dodge in one of the attacks. Second boss is a bit better but still has the HP issue, alongside a super annoying curving attack where being able to distinguish colors quickly is necessary.
The platforming also has a few annoying issues, with a lot of saves feeling super unbalanced compared to everything else, and traps that might make you backtrack and then half the save again for no real reason. There's one section with the runes being a red light green light section where you need to do it multiple times, and it's rather tedious for having such.
Overall, I'm sure people can find some enjoyment from this, but I think I'd rather watch someone else play this game than do it again, it looks very good but plays terribly in my opinion.
