For last game I made (adventures of Willy D) many people said just opposite of you: game too easy no real challenge for rewards puzzles are too easy... So... I guess it's not possible to make a game that everyone will like. But EON is not really pure point and click adventure. It's a mixture of point and click with some crafting elements (in future much more) and a lot of puzzles. I know that not everyone want to play this type of game and I understand. but there are plenty of other type, easier games to play as most of VN are fairly easy I think. I am though, not aiming to get rich over night by making yet another VN (and I do believe with my skills I could make high quality one) I am trying to make something different for people who are a bit tired of same "drama in family or school" VN where left mouse click progress your game till end. Like I said I understand that not everyone will like it but there is easy solution for that: If one don't like the game, simply don't play it
Damn man, that's really too bad. I could have been a fan if I could just skip the boring pixel hunting and impossible puzzles and just enjoy your art without the huge hassle. If the previous critizism was that it was too easy then you definitely overcompensated
hard and landed in the opposite problem.
It's super sad really, everything visual is just so damn good and your animations are maybe the best I've ever seen.
If you want to gatekeep your content to only one type of fan then sure go ahead, you do you. I just think it's really dumb to not chose to reach a broader audience.
It's not impossible to do both, just sayin. Maybe a "story mode" or something. Either way, if your art is good enough (and it is) someone will eventually mod the annoying bits away. I'm definitely hoping for that in the near future.
