I really like story based game, and i think this has alot of potential. Some feedbacks i have is:
Will definitely play again when more stories is added.
Thanks for your feedback! It’s awesome to hear that you like story-based games and see potential in what I’m working on. I totally agree that having Kai’s voice would add a lot, and I’ll also look into adding some ambient sound effects like the wind. A back button for missed dialogue is a really good idea too. I appreciate you sharing your thoughts—it means a lot. I’ll keep working on it, and I hope you’ll come back when there’s more to explore!
I find the game really cool and I played it a long time because it was so interesting.
Here are some things I like about your game:
- the artstyle is pretty cool
- there are lots of options when in a dialogue (skip, auto, save function etc.)
- the dialogue system is pretty well made (colors, animation)
- the game supports android, pc and mac
- the voice that speeks with the player sounds very human
- background music and sound effects
And now here are some things I don't like about the game:
- I would like to have more images so it doesn't get boring after some time
- It would be cool to have more influence on the story -> more things to decide
- the UI feels unpolished -> buttons could have better feedback
-> glowing effect / butons getting bigger when you hover over one
So overall it's a pretty solid game and with more updates coming in the future, the game will hopefully improve a lot and add new content as well. I hope I was able to give you a valueable feedback!
Have a great day!
Thank you so much for taking the time to play the game and share such detailed feedback! I'm really glad you found it interesting and enjoyed elements like the art style, dialogue system, and voice acting. By the way, the voice acting is done by real humans, not AI—our talented voice actors brought the characters to life!
I really appreciate your suggestions for improvement. Adding more images and enhancing the UI feedback are definitely on my to-do list, and I agree that more decisions could make the story even more engaging. Your feedback has been incredibly valuable and motivating, and I’ll be working hard to implement these updates in future versio
Thank you again, and I hope you’ll stick around to see how the game evolves! Have an amazing day! 🚀
Update:
The fullscreen bug that some players experienced has now been fixed! You can now enjoy the game in fullscreen mode without any issues. If you encounter any other bugs or glitches, please don't hesitate to share your feedback—we're actively improving the experience.
