Reviews for "8bit Love Story"

original... action... speed... love... awesome ^^

Came for the medals and stayed for the music... and that god damn Unburnt medal, seriously man i played this game like 9 times just give me that medal. But still, great game.

This game is amazing because is simple and cute. I was not feeling very well today, but the simple experience of playing this game made me feel better, with more hope and it filled my heart with love. Thank you! I gave 4.5 stars only, because the game is too short, but good job!

Short and sweet! Good game plus just loved the pixel artwork! Simple concept to play the game making it playable for just about anybody :)

Simply fantastic.
To start off, I'm going to address what you said in your description about it being 8-bit. It is 8-bit, and the people who are arguing against it are holding onto their nostalgia. This is a new concept which borrowed points from the 8-bit era, and you're completely right to do it.
This "game"- it actually isn't a game, it's a completely new genre- which is why it's categorized as "Skill-Other". It's a story first, with game elements added to it. The player is supposed to feel emotionally attached to the character they play, despite it not being necessary at all to do well. The game will play itself, but the player does it anyway to interact with the story. The byproduct of this is a greater personal investment into the story. It's a basic story from a broad point of view, but everything within it is a completely original iteration of this. Everything from the main character being a "superhero" overcoming these great obstacles in the name of love, to the fantasy concepts of beating a real demon really personify the narrative of looking and finding love. Love is supposed to be something people would risk-it-all for, and you perfectly present that in a way the audience/player will feel.
It's a completely new experience that is worthy of acclaim. Hopefully others understand it in the way you intended- "8bit Love Story" is nothing short of brilliant.
