Hating on this feels like a low blow. It’s so shameless with its influence and lack of talent it doubles back into being charming.
The horrible character design, the blatant stealing from classic Mega Man, the game’s reliance on text for storytelling, the references to things like Touhou and Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure.

All this to say, it still has a better game feel than whatever Mega Man 7 was cooking. Tia moves at a solid speed, the jumps are heavy but reliable, it’s literally the best thing about the game.
Objectively, this is terrible. Probably a 1/5 type game, but I don’t rate games objectively so…
