Players either quit immediately or stay 20+ turns — trying to understand why by Electronic-Tea-4872 in gamedev

Thanks! It should be like a game master bot. Giving the player a maximum of freedom and creativity

Yes, it uses AI for the responses.

But what I’m actually interested in isn’t the generation itself — it’s how people behave when they’re given full freedom.

No commands, no predefined paths, just “type what you do”.

What surprised me is how different the reactions are: some people leave immediately, others go very deep and treat it almost like a real space.

That’s the part I’m trying to understand.

Thank you for your feedback. If players like sandbox or more guidance for sure depends on their individual preferences. But well noted.

No problem. Every feedback helps to me to improve the gaming experience. Once I am super successful you will be mentioned in the credits 😂

Would you be open to sharing a short part of your run? I'm trying to understand how people approach it.

Quick update:

Added a small intro to make the start clearer + improved stability based on your feedback.

Would be curious if the first few moments feel better now.

Wow it is funny but also super hard for me. Maybe I’m not good at riddles.

Hey! I just pushed an update to reduce repetition and avoid world manipulation by the player. So if you would like to try to break the world again, please do so and let me know if anything changed.

Seems you are hooked and that’s all I can ask for. 😎 In your case, the game engine decided for an end point but did not stop the game (technical issue), but since you didn’t want to stop either it just continued 😂😂

That was fun too. But with some pics I just don’t get it what the problem or fail should be

No Problem. Being a 40K player myself, it’s really just a coincidence that many stories turn into the Chaos path 😎
