Finished the alpha.
Well, I have noticed that the access points to the different parts of the map are a little difficult to see or understand first, I think it would be convenient to put a mark for each area to make it easier to understand.
I've also had to spend three or four times in a row time because there was literally nothing to do, I don't know if you will put something in these times or it will just stay like that, but it's a bit annoying to have to speed up time so many times to keep playing.
About the characters nothing bad to say, diverse in personalities, aesthetics and I hope that in a way of flirting with them too (the fact that there is a trap I do not like, but I respect it for whoever does). Raven my fav btw.
About the plot at the moment I do not know much more than the beginning where you choose the background of the MC, so I remain expectant.
About the minigames of the puzzle, I am not a fan of them at all, and as I have already read they will be avoidable in the future. I am not against minigames in this type of genre, on the contrary, I like to give it variety, so if you put minigames based on something that has to do with what the MC does or will do, it would be perfect (for example the being a dik minigames is an example of what I mean)
And to finish I will say that this message is only to give my opinion as a player, and in a critical but positive way, I do not want you to misunderstand this as a criticism to destroy your work, because I believe that if you have consistency with the game it can come out something very very good. I only hope that you are not one of many abandoned games for our misfortune and that you are very fortunate with the project.
Ps: Im not english maternal language, if u dont understand me or wrote as dummy so sorry.
That was an amazing read, thanks you so much for such a well done constructive review of what the alpha currently has.
Huniepop was a game I really enjoyed, because for me it felt really good being rewarded after a minigame where I had limited moves. I like it so much to a degree that I wanted to have the same minigame vibes.
But apparently those two mediums don't really get along from what I can see from the feedback.
But I am not against it at all!
I think people should be allowed to enjoy the game the way they want, that's why I decided to have it be optional.
I've also noted that sometimes people don't simply show up in the map(even though each individually has around 40-50% chances of appearing).
And for now with so little to do yet that isn't good. So we're definitely going to ramp up the numbers to make them show up more often!
Unfortunately I am the worst writer that exists in this planet to the point where I had to hire someone to write the stories and I am very pleased with the outcome.
He really knows how to give personality to the characters.
To the point that many people enjoyed blair's personality, but got disappointed that he ended up being male.
(For those don't you worry! There will be a female blair option down the line!)
Unfortunately I also worked on another project but that regrettably ended abandoned but not because I got tired of it or anything of sorts, I had lost all of what I had done until that point(The entire project became corrupted). The only thing I had backed up was the renders/animations(simply because I'd compressed them, so the originals always stayed), the problem was that it was 14 days of development between the last update and its corruption.
It was going to be a huge update. When that happened I really didn't want people to accuse me of ditching the project and giving out excuses to just end it. I reached out to many people to try and recover the files but in the end nothing could be done.
Really didn't felt like dealing with the pressure that my fans and everyone else that liked the game to feel ripped off, so I released every preview I had done to the public(those were for patrons at the time) including all scenes and everything that I still had.
Regardless of that, thank you for the feedback, it is greatly appreciated and with that we can only make the game better! ♥
