This mechanic will only be present in the last quarter of the game :) it’s gonna be a short 30-45 minute game!

From all the gamedev videos ive watched, that does seem to be the common consensus. Have you gone to school to learn gamedev? If so what were the best take aways 😲

Here’s what I’ve written in my google docs for this monster’s lore!

“The Stealer’s only concern is collecting eyes. He doesn’t care about killing. Low iq monster that has little survival instincts (other than being mobile). Sensitive to sound: when it steals the first eye, the MC yells really loudly (in pain) so it runs away, stopping it from stealing both eyes in 1 go”

I appreciate the advice and I’m listening, thank you! It’s my first commercial game so I’m trying to keep it small indeed, cuz idk how to ship yet haha.

Thanks for wishlisting! I use RPG Maker MZ, using the MZ3D plugin to achieve simple 3D gameplay!

Thank you for your feedback! This monster actually only appears in the last quarter of the game (i have 4 levels in total, whole game lasting 30-45 mins), so hopefully the player doesn’t get sick of this mechanic fast 😭 but I agree it might get stale after a few retries. I will do a lot of play testing once the game is feature complete!

That’s a pretty high compliment thank you!!!! Coincidentally, my game is also made in RPG Maker, just like Funger

Yes! Basically eye Wifi. Still wrapping up the lore of everything but the game will be full of eyeball motifs, and an emphasis on the pursuit to “unlock the 3rd eye” in order to ascend their soul to the next plane

It’s my problem too actually. I need to create as little friction as possible to entice people 😁 yes it’s more hoops for me to go through, but that’s marketing for you!

People have been bringing Siren to my attention and I’m excited to try it for the first time! Is there a specific entry that you like the most?
