HEARTBEAT

Regardless of the fact that the developer supports transphobia, the game has some cute aesthetics but is incredibly repetitive and shallow for its story and character depths from what I did play. I would not recommend playing on writing quality and on principle regarding transphobia. To expand- part of my disappointment from learning the developer was transphobic was due to this game being full of lesbians and having had been seemingly queer friendly just to turn out that it was disingenuous

HEARTBEAT is a charming indie JRPG that blends classic turn-based combat with rhythm-based mechanics, creating a unique gameplay experience. Its minimalist art style and heartfelt story about connection and resilience stand out, supported by a memorable soundtrack that ties gameplay and narrative together beautifully. While the game’s story is somewhat abstract and the rhythm elements can feel repetitive, HEARTBEAT offers an emotionally engaging adventure for fans of narrative-driven JRPGs looking for something fresh and artistic. Rating: 8/10

To be honest with ya, I only bought this game to support the dev who was against the t's if you catch my drift. And after finding out that she has a girlfriend (well... maybe right now she doesn't. But either way, she supports the lgb), I tried to ignore that and continue playing the game. But after running into mostly females early on in the game and how I was really worried of going to Hell for giving money to this woman, I just had to refund this. I am glad that she supports biology though, which is why I'm gonna give this game a thumbs up. Especially to counter this thing that has given it a thumbs down simply because not everyone wants to bend the knee to its' nonsense. Talking about how it's morally obligated to give it a thumbs down even though there's no anti-t stuff in this game. But eh, copers will cope.

Did not start on steam deck. Had to use Proton experimental.

开发者曾经使用跨性别者的紫砂未遂率在游戏折扣开过可怕的玩笑。无论你是谁，支持什么群体，都不应该做这么恶毒的事。 Dev once made a horrifying joke about the su1c1de attempt rate of trans people during a game sale. No matter who you are or what group you support, you should never do something so unacceptable.

Transphobic game
