I guess? It's not so much the power trip, but more so that it feels like the rpg element is taken out for the player. Don't get me wrong, I do like one here and there, but that's not what I'm talking about. 
Like, the game feels like a sandbox game right now (as most games in development do) but this part is controlled for the player. You said it yourself: "It will feel like...". You saying that is fair, but the player may not feel like that, as is their decision and feelings to decide for that. If they don't like the lack of xp and money while not progressing characters' development, they will just move on to the higher levels when they want to. (Just like in any rpg or similar games).

Maybe they want to mindlessly grind with minimal rewards, or maybe they want the challenge. And, to be fair, my deck probably isn't optimized, being 1/3rd of each group and 1 or 2 Bird Cards.

Point being, it feels like the control of the game gets shifted away, instead of being to the player. This leads to an almost bland feeling with minimal gameplay loop. Cause if you allow one to grind for levels, let them actually have in impact in the part that is getting grinded. Otherwise, why have them in the first place?

Personal qualm with the game, It's kind of annoying how the sms messages will go up in level with you. You don't ever get to feel like you could go step down the the 'weaker' dates and you won't ever really feel like you get to go to the higher sms messages, when winning the easy one can be partial rng. (I almost got softlocked into continual losing because I couldn't add more cards with a lack of money and the easy one would beat me in 5 cards 0.0)
Great game so far though! Just small disappointment that it doesn't feel like you properly grow except through the story, leaving it to feel pretty disconnected.

Thanks! I never thought about transferring the entire contents of the folder for some reason. The only thing I tried was the file 1 slot. Time to get back to grinding! :)

Hey, I played for about 2 hours, and really liked the gameplay. I decided to get the full version, and was curious how to transfer the save over from the demo to the full (if it's even possible). I just hate to redo past work/grinds, so I was hoping there would be a nice way to transfer the progress. If not, it's fine, that's why I didn't keep playing it more, so less to grind through again.

This plan alone is getting me to download. Excited to see where this goes!
