okay so if you know that its grindy and have been getting messages about it are you gonna do that?
Like i truly think this game has potential (and this comes from someone who has a incredible destain for anything RPGM) but when i tried to play it i couldnt stand how grindy it was especially with how unfun the grind was.
I am fine with and like grindy games IF and only IF the grind is either easy/simple so you can just shut your brain off while you grind or fun but when you make the grind stuff like "wait 10 seconds while you watch your character do the thing" then it becomes mind numbingly boring and almost feels like a slap in the face against the players time and most if not all players will just go "screw this" and dip.
There's a incredibly big difference of activily doing the grind which might take 10 seconds and wait 10 seconds for the grind. The first can actually be fun and enjoyable in its own way, the later is just boring, feels lazy and a waste of the players time.
What i recommend you do is either decrease the grind by a LOT or make the grind fun by having the player feel involved and actively doing stuff and not just sitting around and waiting or going back and forth over and over again.
It seems to me that the 2nd part of my sentence contradicts the 1st because these people have won so many dropplets and money in the game that they want to be able to spend more in 1 time.
To edit the store, I have no idea how to do it and I couldn't find a plugin to do it but you can use the arrows on the keyboard.
To change the alchemy, I just added a bonus to the skill that allows you to decrease the rest time. Now I need to change the code to make it automatic to calculate the bonus potions earned. This will allow you to go from crafting 9 potions to 99 in 1 go (or even 999). I didn't have time to test the code to decrease the time but if it works, I will increase this bonus.
On the other hand, I don't understand your complaint of "grindy because you have to wait 10sec to watch without doing anything". The only time this happens is when you're doing certain trades, otherwise the rest of the time you have videos to watch (and that you can skip with ESC). You can also press the space bar to speed up the game (this doesn't work during videos).
The game is far from finished, I still have to add a lot of new content but I don't have much time so every month I try to add new videos and make small changes. If you want to see more changes with each new version, you're going to have to help me. Either by being my beta testers and telling me in detail the slightest bug so that I can find it and fix it quickly, or by helping me with the translation (the game is translated entirely by a program but it makes mistakes and I don't have time to read everything. If the text is in French, it's because there's a bug), or by making a contribution on one of my pages.
For V0.20, I'd like to be able to finish the event that allows you to go out on dates with each NPC, finish Sweetie's quests and modify the crafting at the bakery. If I have time, I'll make more edits (if I'm done with the date event).
