Fantastic game, I thoroughly enjoyed playing. Very well polished and fun!

There are a couple of ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ here and there that I hope the developers can fix
- Mouse isn't locked to the screen, would often wander over to my second monitor and when I click, clicks out of the game, extremely annoying and most detrimental in the boss fight.
- Not sure if it glitched out but my entire progress was wiped, after I started new game plus, I quit the game during the opening mission, upon relaunch, my save file is gone.

Its a shame cause I wanted to play the new game+, might just play through the whole story again, it is very fun!

Note: I put about 30 hours into this game. Some offline hours on Steam Deck (which it runs great on btw!)

I really enjoyed the premise of the game! Controls felt very tight. A lot of different options use your elemental powers. Most of the levels allow the player to complete them in various different paths, which I found quite impressive for a stealth game! The optional achievements are also very fun to go for! This game provides quite a unique experience!

I did find a few bugs/glitches such as being able to throw villagers through walls, and some shard abilities can be abused through the reload autosave function, but nothing gamebreaking.

I have a few criticisms about the game in case any devs read this. But I wouldn't let these criticisms deter anyone from buying the game. I felt the reload autosave function to be quite exploitative. There's no real risk for making a mistake, and this also caused a few glitches.
Another critique is the amount of end game content. The first 3 "chapters" are quite well done, but once you start the 4th chapter, the levels become much larger. And I think these levels are where the game really shines! However, there are only about 5 end game levels or so. I would have loved to see more!
The last critique is that I felt like it took many points to level up the earth/fire/water abilities. The final abilities for these (transplant flower, smoke rise, rejuvenate) are really great ability concepts, but by the time I had unlocked them, I was already in New Game+. I already knew how to complete every level so I didn't have much use for these abilities.

I know this review seems like I wrote more about my critiques than positives, but I still found this to be a very enjoyable game!

another pixel art platform puzzle game, i wanted to like it but i was never compelled to start it up a second time.
