What is it, in summary?: A game about surviving an eldritch monster horde until dawn breaks.
What do you love about it?: It's incredibly stylish! It has a limited color palette with animated pixel art, and the soundtrack definitely puts you in the mood for some monster shooting. When you get the skills synergy going, the experience is extremely satisfying. There's very little worldbuilding right now, which leaves it open for a lot of headcanons and speculation. Besides, it's always fun to be your own bullet hell >:3c
What sort of things are you likely to request for it?: Ships! And solo characters! Each girl is a badass in her own way, with her own abilities, and it would be amazing to explore their interactions. I particularly like Spark, Abby, and Scarlett, so I'll definitely request them :}
Are there sections of canon (rather than the whole canon) that can be consumed by themselves to fulfil your requests, or that showcase particular characters and relationships?: The story is basically non-existent, so a normal run of 20 minutes and a look around the game/characters/abilities is everything you need. Honestly, if you play the demo and read a little bit of the wiki, that will be enough ;] (though if you end up liking it, I urge you to buy it; it has a low, fair price for the content, and it's always cool to support indie creators)
Content warnings (ie, rape, incest, racism, gore/violence): Spooky vibes, some flashing lights, and a lot of effects at the same time on screen.
20 Minutes Till Dawn
