I'd like to give my most genuine and honest opinion about this game, forgive me in advance if i may sound harsh or rambling in some parts, i feel quite inspired and bored when i travel
I'll start by praising the Disney-like style of the characters, it manages to blend nostalgia and good design flawlessly, giving you the impression of tainting a good'ol disney movie
. The background is fine, but most of it suffers from the still in WIP (i presume) UI, which in the current state may benefit from some love.
Now the script, while i find it somewhat acceptable for the friend part and kind of...weak, for the blonde gold digger section, unfortunately, it inherits the same predictable and flat humor of most Milftoon comics. Which i guess is fine, as it seems to be the "story standard" for most people nowadays, where every plot is good as long as there is sex.
The real problem though, lies in something you nailed at first, but then ruined when you decided to exchange your design choice for money.
I'm referring to the main character rework. I understand you had to grow him older to satisfy your patreons/supporters wish...but he really doesn't blend in the world you originally created to accomodate a much younger character. You went from an 8-9 years old kid to a 14-15 young lad.
He can't leave the house without taking a taxy and it seems they can't even afford the poor boy a bike, the eye-contact between the MC and the other characters is kind of weak and poorly aligned, as it was clearly designed to work with the previous "younger" design. He even says very dumb things for a boy his age, although i didn't find the dialogue as good as would've hoped, it would have felt more appropriate for a kid.
Now, it may not sound as such a big deal, but i find it an immersion breaker. The MC should most of the time represent the player or at least allow him to see the world from his shoes/point of view...he really sounds and feels inappropriate in this game of yours. Again, i understand you wanted to satisfy your audience request...but you should also understand that you've sacrificed an artistic/developer choice of design and it clearly shows in the whole world you built around him. I would pay great attention preserving your core foundation design wise, especially when its something important as the main characters to pay the price.
Personally, i won't support someone who gives up his core foundation for money, but to each their own i guess, you have such a large community and supporters that can easily dwarf my point of view, making it almost irrelevant at this point. But nonetheless, i wanted to show another unpleasant side, that won't matter much monetarily speaking anyway, but hopefully may result in some constructive exchange of thoughts.
Hopefully i've been clear, not sure if crystal clear but i'm satisfied enough if my point made it through.
...
Damn! That's a big wall'o'text!
See? Wasn't joking when i said i was bored
Hope you didn't take it personally and that you will forgive my rambling. Again, take my opinion for what it is, a simple but genuine one.
