Pretty underwhelming but not bad overall. The game feels like it's aimed at kids which has an endearing touch to it but it also lacks any of the impact you would hope for from the mad lads Uchikoshi and Kodaka working together. The characters are well-designed and can have some cute interactions when the super japanese dialogue isn't neutered in translation. I think the only time they managed to succeed with anything emotionally in the story was at the end with Reycho but there were still plenty of charming moments like whenever a character would awaken their hidden power or when everyone would celebrate with their goofy hand-waving dance. The singing parts were fun too even if they were exceptionally cheesy. Otherwise though the story was kinda weak and the gameplay sucked. A puzzle platformer with very simple puzzles and super clunky platforming just doesn't make for an enjoyable experience, especially with one-hit deaths. I liked the idea of every character having a unique ability but actually using the abilities was always okay at best and awkward at worst. The artstyle was nice but hindered by stiff animations and the soundtrack was pretty good as well.

For me it was the scene with Aniki and Vanilla's ghost. The Reycho one felt like it was inevitable and I wish we had a boss fight instead.

Fair, I have a soft spot for silent protags having their own big moments though.
