It's a very cute survivor-like game, and while it's kinda short it does have fun upgrades that combine and work together in really enjoyable ways.

Fun, chill and relaxing, hang out with friends or make new ones while fishing~
It's a very cute game.

I'd give it a 4/5 stars, if I could~
It's a really cool game with a pretty unique mechanic. As you play through the game, you get these Charms that are used during important story related 'turning points' (or used in silly minigames), and each charm used causes the story to shift onto a different story-line with different endings. The game also lets you "fast-travel" to each turning point as you get to them, so you don't have to replay the entire game to go down a different story-line. It's really neat honestly! You can get them through the story, or by doing things in game (often repeatedly).
The characters are really well written (they're super cute too), the story is really intriguing and puzzling, It's got heartwarming moments and sad moments and scary moments. It's well done in my opinion.

I only have two gripes with the game:
~Spoiler For The Game Mechanics, No Story Specific Spoilers ahead~
The game makes use of the charms really well, causing you to go back and forth between the different story-lines, but my issue is that the game kind of forces you into EACH and EVERY storyline and forcing you to witness each of the different endings before you get to the "true ending". You don't really get to use the charms as you want, as many times you'll only have one charm you can use and that will lead you to unlocking another charm and an ending right after, so you'll have to swap to another story-line till it gets to that ending, then you can go back and progress from the previous point. I believe the game would have been better if it let you unlock a bunch of charms regularly as you played, then let you choose how the game progresses. The game is like a "choose your own adventure" but you have no real choices, you're forced to see each ending in progression in order before finally seeing the true ending. The illusion of choice and the linear storytelling are my only two gripes with the game.

I haven't gotten very far yet, but it's very good so far. I feels really fun to play, and it honestly seems like the kind of Po... monster catching game that we've been asking for. It's also got survival elements but they don't feel unreasonable.

This is a very fun, creative indie game about two friends, Sok and Jester, starting their own theatre show and going to different towns to play in.
It has a lot of heart put into it, at it shows. I genuinely enjoyed my entire time playing the game.
It might be a little short, but it was worth it in my opinion.
It has voice acting, it can be a little rough at times but that adds to the charm in my opinion.
It has very good music too, and I have had some of the tunes get stuck in my head xD

A great indie game I think everyone should really give a try. You don't see games with this kind of unique style often, at least ones that are well done.

Lemme start by saying that I'm not the biggest holo-live fan, I only really know Korone and Coco, and even then I only really watched bits and clips of them, not their streams.

This game is pretty decent for a fighting game. It's fairly well made, you can tell the creators put a lot of effort into it.
The sprite work is really good, the sounds are good, the music is great, and it's got good netcode.
The game comes with a couple of modes too, which you wouldn't think a free fighting game would come with, including a neat "rpg-style endurance-ish" mode where you get items and accessories that change up the fights, and you fight against NPCs with different effects during the fight, like low gravity or having to survive an invincible opponent.

The combat mechanics are really well done too. The combos feel good, the special moves are nice, the supers are pretty sweet, and you get assists called collabs (but you can't assist spam in this game thankfully!).

Honestly I recommend anyone who likes fighting games to give it a try, it's free~

The only issues I have with the game so far are I wish there was a lobby system for online mode, and sometimes during fights my grabs will whiff on grabbable opponents, which sucks because I main Coco which is the grappler.
(There was even one time where I was standing next to the opponent, I used my grab and it whiffed, and they grabbed me immediately after! Annoying...)

P.S. Don't play Coco during single player games, the NPC cheats like ♥♥♥♥ and will cancel every normal grab and jump away from every command grab! This pissed me off when I was playing the various modes to unlock her colors, why play a grappler when the NPC will cheat to not let me grab? Make the command grab a 0-frame grab like in other games so the NPC can't jump out by reading your button inputs!!!

The game is free. That's already a big thumbs up!
This is a very fun, silly 'racing' game where you play as a kid (or robot, or fox?) surfing down a sandy mountain on your wooden tray.
It's very fast paced and and action packed, you get to practice a few times each new mountain (they're randomly generated) before the actual race, so you get to see what it looks like and test different routes.

You get to customize your character as well. The Customization options are limited and simple, but charming. There's a supporter's pack you can buy that has some more customizations in it.

It's a fun little game, would probably be a lot of fun with a bunch of friends, which would be easy because its free~

This game is so gosh darn adorable and wholesome! A small collectathon made with love, you can tell they put care and effort into this game. It might not be super long, and it might not have the most complex graphics, or a world shattering story, but it has a lot of charm and the story gets surprisingly heartfelt for the carefree atmosphere it has.
Definitely worth the purchase and playtime. I didn't 100% the game yet, but I almost did. I'd say I'm at ~85%.

EDIT: I have since 100%'d the game, and it's totally worth finishing. There's a lot of little bits to collect, but the game makes it easier to get them after a certain point, and there's a little more story if you do.

A friend sent me the code for the game, that's how I got it for free, otherwise I wouldn't have even known it existed.
I tried the game out, it was fun at first, I like rogue-likes and deck builders. But I gotta say this game is DREADFULLY short.
WAY too short. There's 3 "maps" so far at the time of writing this, and the game is not in early access. Each map will have you do around a good number of fights as well as random encounters and shopping stops, and upgrade stops.
The problem is that the fights are really short, like 2-3 minutes max, and they're not hard. The first two characters you get are very strong, but the third character you have is the 'handicap' character, so if you want a challenge use her.
You can get through the campaign in a very short amount of time as it stands, my first time playing the game I got through the first two maps on my first try and quit because I wanted to try the next character, I then beat all three maps with the second character.

They need to add more maps. The biggest, main glaring issue here is the fact you can get through the game so fast, it's not worth the @20 asking price, I would not have paid that much for this game.

It's a pretty fun game! It's a kind of beat-em-up with RPGish elements. Without spoiling anything; The story is a kind of 'whodunnit' mystery that just gets deeper and deeper the more you play.

Also totally not biased bonus, yay for the cast of characters being animals.
