IS THERE A MULTIPLAYER MODE?
The answer is no. We have evaluated it multiple times (it was one of the goals of our Kickstarter), but ultimately, we decided to focus on the single-player mode. Among the multiplayer options we had considered, there was a competitive mode where four players would face each other using Kensei and Ayame, a cooperative mode with a dedicated campaign (two players, one controlling Kensei and the other Ayame), and a cooperative mode with alternate controls. Unfortunately, due to time and budget constraints, we were unable to implement any of these.

HOW LONG IS THE GAME?
The length of our game can vary greatly depending on the player’s skill level, but we expect most people to complete the story within 6-8 hours. However, if someone is aiming for a 100% completion run, it will take them at least 10 hours or more. We designed the game to cater to players of various skill levels, and we believe the game’s length is satisfactory for most players. That being said, we encourage players to take their time and explore the game’s various paths and secrets, as it can lead to a more rewarding experience.
