Meta comedy and fourth wall breaking can get super cringey when done wrong, but this is so well written it never felt like that at all. Found myself genuinely laughing out loud in parts, which is rare for a game. Even the corny lines were charming (the game is worth completing for the very last zinger alone). Gameplay was engaging and fairly well balanced, although did tend to lag a lot in the main dungeon area, so it loses half a star for that. I am genuinely excited for chapter 2 of this.
