I really enjoyed the cute pastel style! The handwritten text and the typography both do a lot, especially with how they contrast with the scenes and characters. The pat hand is a fun silly detail, and Sakuya's animations were one of my personal favorite parts; she runs so gracefully that it's almost like ice skating.

The fairies' different abilities add a fun level of strategy. I can imagine this concept being expanded on with more movement & attack variety; for example, some foes might spook Remilia by firing danmaku at Sakuya, or some might take non-straight paths around (such as spirals or zigzags). As is, however, it's very well balanced all around, and felt just right for my run! (It's also easy to feel out how long Time Stop lasts, which helps!)

Although the writing mainly sets the stage, I liked how much it adds to the soft style & theming. Combined with how well the game plays, I enjoyed this one quite a lot - and I can tell that you had fun putting this together, too. Excellently done - and congratulations on the top Balance ranking!

It's hard, specially since it feels slippery, but once you get the hang of it, it kind of grows in you. I'm glad that you can restart the level with 70%. It has replay-ability potential if you want to create your own challenges like clearing the whole game without using continues and the leader board with the infinite is great, I managed to get to 900 but is also rather stressful so I had to stop for my own sake. 

The art is very cutesy and that is always a plus for me n.n

My favorite part: Although it is short the gameplay has a nice rhythm of spacing your movement, attacking and stopping time to clear more enemies which is very engaging.

A challanging yet fun game! the visuals and sound effects are cute and the game play is diffacult enough that you don't get bored and to make you want to try again

A cute little arcade game with good visuals, sound design and surprisingly fun gameplay. The story is very quick and serves more as setting to the game, but it's still pretty cute. Learning to use timestop most effectively, how to quickly build the meter back for it and prioritizing targets around Remilia gave enough to the gameplay that made it engaging despite the relative simplicity.
