Story and characters
Players who bring up Story and characters mostly praise it.
I went into it completely blind since I purchased it in a Fruitbat Factory bundle and was surprised to find a world with memorable characters and a great mystery.

Audio
Players who bring up Audio mostly praise it.
Any more textual like a light novel or book and the story would lose the often ambient, nostalgic soundtrack and sound effects that aid scenes without visuals.

Graphics
Players who bring up Graphics mostly praise it.
This game has pretty unique art style ,character's sprites are simplistic but with their very own charm , the background here is a combination of art , 3d renders but mostly its just edited real photos, it looks good enough so i dont really care about it , The other important thing is actually a Cgs amount , it exeeds 100 which is actually very impressive since now we see 10-15 per game and it is considered as a normal now, i could give it 10/10 just for that , but there is more to it than sheer amount , a lot of CGs have variants too. i rate "Art and overall style"10/10

Interface
Players who bring up Interface mostly praise it.
Firstly, the tips are only accessable from the main menu rather than having an easy transition from the game, which meant I tended to watch them in bulk later on, making them less relevant to the actual game, and meaning I had to sit through the introduction screen each time I wanted to view them.

Gameplay
Players who bring up Gameplay mostly praise it.
I wouldn't consider myself to be someone who can't handle a slow-paced, character-focused story- for instance, I would probably consider Marimite one of my favorite anime series- but SeaBed needlessly delays relevant progression of its core idea too often, for too long, and for too little gain.
