I can't judge before finishing it completely, but I am amazed by the UI design already. The text boxes are giving me vibes I can't find words for yet, but it's reaaaally well done!! Doesn't happen too often that a screenshot makes me think: "hell, this looks expensive". Even tho the screen is very busy, it's not distracting from the story itself. So much to that! I will either update or re-comment once I am done, but not today :) From my very first glance at the game a very well-done job!!
I am back ♥ I don't need to tell you that I really enjoy the game, else I would probably not play it twice, so let's hop to the 'bugs'. (1) A thing I notice often, but sadly I can't tell you what is causing it: New passages start at the bottom and the player needs to scroll up to continue reading [2] Quite irritating, not a bug though: It took me a bit to get used to selecting an option twice. (1 click causes option 2 to disappear and another click will reveal the new text] I am getting the point of it, but still, I keep eye-rolling about it because I expect the flow to keep... flowin' ~.~ I don't even have anything else to be picky about. Maybe if I really wanted to: I wouldn’t need to use the scrollbar at all. Whenever I click, it pulls my attention away from the text with its animation. I’m not quite sure if the scrollbar is necessary if you can scroll with the mouse wheel intuitively. Another tiny visual thing: The 'real-time' text messages, which are also triggered by clicking, could, in my opinion, use a tiny bit of polishing, a slide-up animation, idk. It doesn't feel as text-chatty as it looks. Probably sounds like a terrible review, but it's sure not meant as such! Considering the time you had given: great! ♥
The audio work is stunning! From the small beeps to the 'cutscenes', enjoyed it very much.
I didn't manage to finish it yet. The art is nice, I like the pet ideas. Actually I think it might have been better if the pets were animals and not cyborgs. It would have made for an interesting contrast owner-pet and how the pet would show the magical girl's human nature.
Not a big fan of the story though but that's just me, I'm very picky with this aspect in many games. I found at some point a story part that ended with 1 choice, I didn't quite understand what was the point of that, it's not like I could have picked anything else. Also writing related, there were some sentences that didn't make much sense, and sometimes the flow of the paragraph was pretty bad (starting with long sentences, etc).
I liked the UI, it was great to get to read so much at once, rather than pressing a button to read line-by-line. I hate that design, glad to see this was different.
Also the scrollbar is cool too because the line-by-line design usually doesn't give you the option to go back.

Love the music, especially the cute menu one!
