❤ Gameplay Mechanics

As the player controls the protagonist Amaterasu, a wolf goddess, they have access to a variety of weapons and abilities to defeat enemies. The combat system allows players to chain together light and heavy attacks with Amaterasu's equipped weapon, be it a reflector, rosary, or glaive. Players can also unleash Celestial Brush techniques during combat, which temporarily freeze time and allow Amaterasu to draw various shapes and patterns that manifest as powerful attacks. These brush techniques can be used offensively to slash, burn, or paralyze foes, or defensively to erect barriers or revive from being knocked down. The combat, while not overly complex, offers a satisfying blend of weapon-based and brush-based offensive options.

❤ Exploration and Puzzle-Solving

Beyond combat, exploration and puzzle-solving are major components of the gameplay. Players can traverse the large, open world, uncovering new areas, collecting items, and completing quests. Many of these quests and areas are gated by environmental puzzles that require the use of Celestial Brush techniques to progress. For example, players may need to draw a bridge, ignite a fire, or manipulate the environment in specific ways to access new paths and secrets.

❤ Celestial Brush

At the heart of the gameplay is the Celestial Brush, a unique mechanic that allows players to pause the action and draw specific patterns and shapes on the screen. These brush techniques have a wide variety of effects, from offensive moves like slashing or setting enemies on fire, to more puzzle-oriented abilities like creating bridges or manipulating the time of day. Mastering the Celestial Brush and using the right technique for each situation is crucial to progressing through the game. The brush controls work particularly well with mouse input, offering precise control over the strokes.

❤ Progression and Customization

As players explore the world, they can find and equip new weapons, gain new brush techniques, and upgrade Amaterasu's health and power through the "Praise" system. Earning Praise from completing quests, restoring nature, and helping NPCs allows players to unlock new abilities and enhance Amaterasu's skills, adding a light RPG-like progression element to the gameplay.
