No Truck-kun in the preview pics? Disappointed.

Still, sucks to see someone laid off and trying to make the best of it so I'll give it a whirl.

 

[Dybbuk]

Not even a single Tittie on the picture folder????

Moving on (for clarity, just sideboob on version 0.1)...Will be back for some sweet, sweet titties once the developer introduces them in the game
Good luck with the project, by the way

Ok,,, so this is the prologue according to the dev,,, ... Chapter 1 and the game itself will be a SANDBOX...
WOULD have been nice if there was a heads up on that.... but noooo nothing in future tags or dev notes.
Well that's all i needed to know... I'm out,,, fuck this shit. unwatch.

It looks polished enough, there's just a few things here I don't like that should get cleared up over time.

1) It's one of those "I'll let the voters decide how the game turns out" type of projects.

Voting is fine when it comes to a characters outfit or other minor details. Leaving fundamental decisions (is the game sandbox or not) up to voters is a good way to get an absolute mess since we all want different things. Hard to be passionate about a project when it's not actually yours and just an amalgamation of a bunch of random votes.

2) It's possibly a sandbox in the future.

Sandboxes are okay depending on how much work goes into them. This seems like it could be a passable sandbox but I'm assuming a lot of details to get there. Sandboxes work better when the story is focused on character development and since there hasn't been any, it's impossible to say if the sandbox will be good or not.

3) Minigames

Minigames are niche. There are plenty of projects that get negatives just for trying to include them for the sake of having them. Given that the first minigame talked about is the bar minigame, it sounds like something we are going to have to do an awful lot. Personally, I think minigames are better as a one off thing if you're going to include them at all.

4) Lack of H-scenes

Obviously this will get cleared up in the next update.

5) Lore exposition through menu choices

As a creator, I would expect you to be into your own project. So was it fun during playtesting when you hit the Wallace exposition wall after the first shift? There's nothing fun about sitting in one scene and clicking my way through 5+ questions and getting lore dumped for it. Spread it out, pass it off to multiple characters or over the course of days. You don't have to dump the entire backstory of the world into the prologue.

Green vests. Um... no.

Wow, I was planning on spending my evening posting my game on here. Imagine my surprise finding out that someone had already posted it for me! Thanks!

I appreciate the kind words and constructive feedback, truthfully, this project has been in development on and off for almost a year and my vision for it has changed drastically over that period of time. When development began, the plan was to make the game a sandbox with minigames. As time has passed (and I get a better understanding of the types of VNs that I personally enjoy) the idea of including a sandbox and minigames has definitely fallen to the wayside. As I iron out more details of the story and its characters, my vision for the game has began to lean further and further towards a linear narrative.

This contrast between what I originally wanted to do and what I currently want to do ended up manifesting itself in this idea of getting fans to vote in polls on the future of the game. It definitely didn't help that this is my first project, and leading up to the release I was definitely lacking confidence that my game would be enticing to new players. I think I felt like I owed people the original concept, even though that didn't really interest me anymore. I viewed the poll system as my way out, "Oh, the poll said people don't want a sandbox, I guess my desire to go linear is valid" is how I began to view things. Seeing so many responses feeling the same way as me does instill confidence that my vision for the game is a compelling one.
