I was into it until the final reveal.

::: spoiler spoiler
what a waste, turning this into an anime game

I read this as "fractured bloons" and was excited for a new bloons tower defense game

What reveal, you can see the main character from the very start of the video

Damn, I could have been disappointed even earlier? (I appreciate you pointing this out)

It looks interesting. The Summer Gameshow said it was inspired by Silent Hill and DDLC, so it's an interesting concept. The character models are a little jarring with the game world, but it could be intentional for all i know, and I'm excited to give this a shot.

It honestly wouldn't surprise me if it's actually set in a more anime-style world, and that the "real" looking one in the trailer is imaginery or something.

That’s something I hadn’t considered. I wouldn’t at all be surprised if that was the case. It’d fit what I know about it too
