So, not the same artist who drew for Refuge of Embers, then.
Well, I do get that. There will be more events that explain what a how is happening, especially when we will finally add in shops and part-time jobs. And as the world gets filled in. But the main issue with such a thing is that the direction the player wants to go might not be the direction a developer might have in mind. This is something we are currently thinking about
The trick is to give the player an idea of where he or she CAN go, and where to head when he or she is looking for something specific. If I want to find a stick, and know there is a forest to the West, I will head West in search of it. Or, if I don't feel like pursuing that for now, I will go do something else. On the other hand, if I want to find a stick and the only one in the game is behind an empty barn in a barrel that is only there on Tuesdays at noon, I am likely to get frustrated searching every location I can imagine.
The truth is that I see only an ending, so or there is an ending that includes all the LIs that interest me (which can be perfectly all), or simply I will not be interested in the game. I see no reason to try to find if of all the LIs I only like one because most likely I like two or more.
Having a common route makes a nice intro then let the player branch off from there. Don't know what classes to take and kinda wish the curriculum was less do whatever and more of you're on a path to meet all the girls then decide which one(s) you want to spend time with. Take Persona where a certain amount of class courses are required and how much extra effort you put in is up to you on your free time.
This is actually exactly my point. Is see the game as more of a "school simulator where you also can date girls", and less of a "dating simulator where you also go to school". That's why from my point of view, I am trying to steer the player more in the direction of exploring your opportunities in the school, and meet the girls as they do so. I want the players to discover girls and wanting to know more, not presenting them with a whole roster of 10+ girls (yes, the current four are just the first batch), and just have them try to build to the one they like.
theres already at least one teacher with art who had be going awooga
Hi there! No, unfortunately I don't have any active social medias at the moment ^^ I had a Twitter, but I don't update it anymore, if I resurrect it, I will be sure to add the link!
Is it flagged? I honestly have no idea. I read that it takes some time to get approved... And I was waiting for that. Can I see it being "flagged" anywhere?
Ok, browsed the web for a bit. "Quarantined" is a message you get when trying to download a game from a new developer that was not yet reviewed by the staff. Which would include us. We will hopefully get reviewed in a couple of days.
Thanks for feedback. It is really important for us to know how much content the games encounter naturally!If it's worth anything given the very early status of the game: After meandering through the two months or so I reached the Trial of Mind, got stuck at the second set of doors until the other two finished, then the game went into an infinite loop saying I had five doors to go.
The rest of the game was pretty repetitive; I ran into three or four girls once each plus the puzzle tower once, so not a lot of stuff happening other than increasing numbers. Again, it's very early.
