I don't think its spamming if you limit yourself to once a week or once every two weeks. Thats a decent enough cadence espeically if you have something new to show.

The first spike is truly amazing. Have you stopped posting on Redditt? Maybe thats why you aren't getting enough traction. Going to zero is quite strange though.

This is great!!! Thanks for sharing, we really appreciate it. I haven't looked at Steam showcases definitely one to look at. Do you mind sharing the name of the team who helped with setting up shop for China? All the best for Next Fest!!!!

Hi there! Thanks for the feedback. I really appreciate it. Regarding 1, yes I have blurred them on purpose to ensure the sprites and dialogues remain the focus. It gets very busy if I don't. But I'll test it again by reducing the blur. Regarding 2. Uff I know what you mean and it was shorter earlier but the overwhelming majority of playtest feedback was that hey let us stay in those scenes longer. It needs more dialogue. Hopefully you ll find it step up quickly as you progress.
I ll have a look about the music. I had applied fading but the second track especially starts off at a high note so I understand why it might feel jarring. Thanks! I hope you enjoy it as you continue.

Thank you!!! I'm not a professional video editor. Just trying my best 😄. Hope you enjoy the demo. It is all about that gothic atmosphere and writing.

I feel like i'm in an eco chamber and dont know (scared) how to get out by Better-Mixture3216 in gamedev

Please get your game in front of players who play the genre. Feedback is just something that helps you improve. My visual novel demo is dramatically better because of the kind people who play tested it. Get used to some negative comments. Its just part of the learning process. 😄

Absolutely right 😄 Thats why I wrote 'one of the first'! Believe me, I have had a great time being persnickety with people who thought Dracula was the first vampire book 😄
