whoever did the UI for this deserves a special place in gamer hell. the skip button is literally right next to the gallery button and guess what happens when you're furiously clicking through dialogue. yep. suddenly you're staring at the scene select screen and your rhythm is completely fucked. muscle memory betrayed me like six times before i just gave up and used keyboard shortcuts. which aren't listed anywhere btw. had to figure out spacebar skips text by accident when i dropped my phone on the laptop.

the whole premise is this warrior girl loses a fight and then. well. the title basically spells it out. winner takes all. the art style is that specific flavor of hentai where everyone's anatomy makes sense until clothes come off and suddenly physics stops existing. tits move like they're filled with helium. but honestly? that's part of the charm. if i wanted realistic proportions i'd go outside. the facial expressions during the loss scenes though. chef's kiss. whoever drew the moment she realizes she's completely fucked understood the assignment. that one frame where her eyes go wide and her mouth does that little tremble thing. i replayed that scene four times just to see it again. the gallery system is annoying but at least it remembers what you've unlocked so you don't have to replay the whole thing.

the combat is barely there. like they clearly wanted to make it feel like an actual fight game but the mechanics are just rock paper scissors with extra steps. block beats slash beats grab beats block or whatever. you can see the loss coming from a mile away because the enemy ai telegraphs everything. which i guess is the point since you're supposed to lose but still. a little suspense wouldn't hurt. my brain kept trying to optimize a winning strategy even though i knew the only winning move was to not play. wait that's wargames. anyway the fight scenes themselves are animated decently enough. cloth physics go wild.
