It never fails to amaze me the number of game devs that cannot be bothered to put the game's text through a basic spell check. It doesn't matter their country of origin, nor what language they natively speak... the problem seems universal.

What did you find?

I proofread this one a month ago and there shouldn't be many issues with it now.

Je ne sais pas ce que vaut le jeu, mais, a priori, les graphismes sont quand même sacrément chiadés.
I don't know how good the game is, but, at first glance, the graphics are pretty damn impressive.
je suis d'accord et puis le titre du jeu n'a aucun sens et y'a pas assez d'images de previews

Goddamn this game is slow to start. Lost patience when the cutscene finally made it to the island and it looked like it was at last about to hand control over to me, only to force me into speaking with the guy in the tower. No way to skip dialogue or cutscenes. Just too slow for me to bother with.

Saw one, apparently is written down as aparrently.

Thanks for that. That was one of the ones corrected. Maybe the original one has ended up here, not the fixed one. :unsure: I'll let the dev know.

Damn, I thought you were being sarcastic and making a joke. If you have the dev's ear, any chance you can get them to change the name of the game to be the correct spelling of an actual word? DESCENT perhaps? Just remove a couple of those pesky extra letter C's.

From a marketing perspective, that simple change might get a few more folks to try the game in the first place. Admittedly, I assumed the game was trash for that singular reason... and yes, that is tantamount to me admitting I am openly judging a book by its cover.

LOL, no I was serious. That's why I was puzzled when you said there was problems with it, after I had gone through and fixed them (or thought I'd got most of them anyway). :ROFLMAO:

'Desccenct'. Looks almost, but not entirely, unlike a word.

Wtf even is that name. It's like some drunk dude tried to type in "descent" fast and ended up mistyping it lol

Unless stated and explained otherwise, I will assume that this is exactly what happened.
The game was supposed to be called Descent, but that name was already taken on Steam... so I just threw in an extra 'C'. And yeah, you guessed it, I was definitely drunk when I came up with it.

The version posted here is actually outdated, it's the same as the one on Patreon. I will ask for the authorship of the Post and correct it.

In fact, this game is still just a prototype, the option to skip the Intro and go straight to the island part will come in later updates.

I'm still collecting suggestions on what can be improved, it's a totally new type of gameplay and any kind of ideas are welcome!

That's excellent to hear, I'll keep an eye open then :)

First impression is not that good - feels like a Skyrim mod... and not one of the good ones. Off the top of my head:
- Dialog can use a lot of work - it all feels rushed.
- The combat was just one key press - may as well not be there at all
- Music is too loud by default. Turned it down to half and was still having trouble hearing Lea in that presentation. Also, I've heard that royalty free tune so many times that it causes an involuntary twitch in my eye - but maybe that's just me.
- Since it's all AI voice acted why not give an option to remove the subtitles
- Why is the mc shirtless and dirty all the time + why are all the "soldiers" always holding swords. Do the models not have a holstered option?
- The default_horse_sound.mp3 always plays when a horse is on screen. No need for that
- The voice chosen for Varrik is amazing
- 7 gems? Are you sure these are not balls? Of the dragon variety
