Karmic Reign

OMG  the characters are PEAAKK!! the opening where they wake up in the forest is so cute :3

(spoilers below!)

i unthinkingly went full genocide on the first playthrough (that boss fight goes HARDD) and it was strange how guarded The Unseen One was acting when i met them, like "what'd i do to you???" but on the next playthrough i was befriending the rats, collecting sap to try and beat the boss without hurting them, only to find out they weren't violent this time! they invited me in for drinks!! seeing how much more affectionate and willing to help me the world became was just a whimsical experience! kinda scary how reality hinges on the actions of this mystical cat (or on its species?), especially one with no concept of their past or self. it hit a particular heartstring how approaching the world with fear – fighting everyone – leads to a reality where the world seems cruel and you learn nothing about yourself. but when you show patience and restraint, you actually get little crumbs of what's going on! ........but you don't get a cool boss fight that way, so maybe being evil IS the way >:3c

sorry for the paragraph, i just think its neat :D 
the art/music/writing came together really fluently! so it was easy to get invested in the mystery being set up. i love the music in the forest before entering the shrine, and the neigh in the farm song was sending me LOL
