Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
There's so many fun shops (whose UI also needs work so you're not scrolling through an endless list of items) the characters are adorable, the story seems cute and a milk tea maker/shop manager is something I've been yearning for, but it's just not that at all right now.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
I think it's worth playing and supporting the devs as this game is fairly priced for the level of gameplay I have gotten out of it.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
The graphics are really cute and I'm really enjoying the music as well.

Combat
Players who bring up Combat mostly praise it.
I think the game has a solid foundation for an early access game, I hope in the coming updates that things get polished (sprites, audio, gunplay).

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
Fishing has a rhythm game attached to it where you have to press the arrow keys in time with the music, each fish will have a different soundtrack letting you know easily what fish you are catching.
