Pretty good metroidvania! It's short, but makes up for it by being brutally hard - if you thought being able to stop time whenever you want was gonna make things a cakewalk, you're sorely mistaken. The second area has an enemy type that moves so quickly you can't even hit them if you don't slow down time before you shoot, and it all goes upnhill from there. The game rewards you for using the time abilities judiciously by letting you recover ammo, so the optimal playstyle involves complex manoeuvers where you freeze time to land cheap hits, then unleash special abilities using all the MP you just recovered, clearing the entire room in seconds, having fun AND being an effective warrior at once!

You probably won't enjoy the story a lot if you don't know a bunch of stuff about Touhou lore before you start, but it's mostly there to glue the gameplay together and pretty easy to zone out if you're not invested in it.
