Phase(?)-based 2D platformer is certainly an unusual choice.

This sounds excellent. I expect it'll turn out to be a roguelite deckbuilder, that's what usually happens with things that look cool.

This game has been in development since at least 2021. It seems unlikely that major design changes would be introduced at this point.

It's just kind of like worms with rounds resolved somewhat simultaneously, you could try the playtest.

The fact that japs completely lack any creativity and every single j"rpg" is a copy of Wizardry doesn't retroactively make Wizardry an j"rpg"

It looks like it's somewhat inspired by Darkest Dungeon, but this game appears to have real environments to explore including platforming elements, so it's fundamentally a different kind of thing.
