I like the idea of combining standard idle fair with resource management.

I had fun micromanaging the different worker priorities and finished the game in 20 minutes.
Characters could be less one note by having more abilities than “do task more efficiently”. More like Reimu. Upgrades could also do with some more variety. The OC has no distinguishing features and I feel that would’ve been fine if she had unique upgrades that would turn her from a basic worker into a unique powerhouse.
Akyuu should cost more than just 99 because once you get here you just spam bell upgrades on kosu, bow upgrades on marisus, and focus the other two on clap and money, then the last worker becomes the one you juggle with.
Game doesn’t have a fullscreen or resize option so i played it in a small window making it hard to read. Upgrades should be a row for each character instead of a long grid that makes it hard to find what you’re looking for.
The title screen is beautiful, and the KurantoB art is always charming.
Not sure what to say about the game. I got some basic upgrades going and then left it in the background for like 20 minutes and won by having Akyuu DDoS the Moriya shrine's faith infrastructure by uttering like 60 000 prayers at once.
Game is kind of frustrating: there is always some resource you are short on, and when you get relevant upgrades, something else will become the bottleneck. I'm not sure if it's bad; it's probably exactly the kind of game it's supposed to be. The time it took to setup all the upgrades I cared about to finish in a reasonable time was perfectly reasonable, so it's not like it's a huge attention sink.
If there was no Akuu, sanae might have turned into grandma before hitting 80k faiths.
Nice game to spend a little time on when bored
bummer that there is no audio but ignoring that, well done on the overall gameplay, sure not an action or adventure game but the mechanics are good, spending all my money on making the average girl god speed coin tosser and loosing all my money and claps immediately was fun, althought other than masako im not sure if theres any oc?
