Made it through without any game overs on the first try at least, pretty underwhelmed by the bosses and the little mini levels leading to them are annoying, the past/future thing seems really cool, though the changes to the levels are purely superficial at least from what I saw, went to each a few times, I don't even know what I'm supposed to do to fix the futures of each level, and I'm not good enough at sonic to care to try. I made it to a special zone exactly once and think I screwed it up. Not a fan of how maze-like the later levels are, I'm sure it's got something to do with the time puzzle, but I ran out of time in one of the last set cause I took a wrong turn and got sent way back when I was right next to the goal, way too much aimless wandering.

The animated opening and ending is a really nice touch
Amy's sprite is very cute.

Moments of this game had me laughing uncontrollably, some moments had me in stunned awe at the world-building and character work, other moments hurt me far worse than I was prepared for, one of those moments in the final play session of my first game had me in tears, not long after that I was shedding tears again of a very different kind, because I was witnessing something beautiful happening.

This might have the best RPG stat system I've ever seen, and the writing is better than a good majority of the novels I've read in my life. I had two files going concurrently, playing as two very different detectives, and after spending two months (or 16 days) in Revachol, I'm still not ready to leave.
