1. Combat via “Spirit Echoes”
You don’t level up Lily. You level up attacks. You’ll find:
2. Difficulty – Fair, Not Frustrating
This is not Hollow Knight’s Path of Pain, but it’s no pushover. Bosses have clear tells. You heal via limited “prayer” charges that refill at benches. Death respawns you at the last bench with zero penalty (no corpse run).
3. Music by Mili (Project Moon, Goblin Slayer)
The soundtrack is haunting piano, strings, and ethereal vocals. “Harmonious” and “White Night” will stick in your head for days. Wear headphones.
4. Map Design
Classic Metroidvania locks and keys, but with a twist: you unlock vertical dashes, air dashes, and wall climbing gradually. The map tracks percentage complete and item locations. No unnecessary confusion.
