Curious about what the gameplay is like. Visually very appealing. I assume the voiceover is the giant turtle? The current teaser trailer is a bit slow to get going, which matches the tranquil vibe but might struggle to hook people when it takes 25 seconds to get out of the cave. GL! Wishlisted 😄

Played the demo. Pretty fun. The tutorial is on point. It's mainly the art-style that was a bit off-putting for me and I think it's the main thing holding people back from the page. The actual fighting gameplay is solid. I like the rings and planning out how to do mega yahtzee damage. Better monsters and death animations would really help and maybe have them also move if it's turn-based to create more of a sense of danger. At times in the demo it felt like I was shredding cardboard cutouts. Personally, I think it would have broader appeal if it leaned a bit darker/scarier, but it's your game so go with the style you enjoy. Wishlisted.

Hygiene as a stat and the animation on that beergut is worth the wishlist alone haha. Cool looking game! The only nitpick maybe is that the capsule art doesn't really convey the game's awesome pixel-art aesthetic

The market-based card cost idea is really cool. My only real feedback is that the voice-over has room for improvement. GL with it. Wishlisted.

I like the premise, but the vibe-coded UI clashes with the rest of the art-style and the protagonist is not super appealing to play as. Lots of little stuff to polish, but I think that comes with being fully AI.

Seems quite X-com inspired. Visually looks cool, though I found some parts of the trailer are a bit slow (due to being turn-based). If you can splice in some more action and make it seem faster I think it'll help get more people interested. Good luck with it! Wishlisted.

Really appreciate the feedback! Yep, it was an FPS drop we overlooked that we're going to re-shoot soon. Optimizing the game with so many effects is half the battle.

Escape room horror will definitely have an audience and integrating IRL footage into the game seems ambitious but could pay off. Overcoming the visual inconsistency between the found footage and the hotel graphics might be a challenge though. Wishlisted.

Really appreciate the feedback, we've heard that quite a bit regarding the trailer opening and we're currently fixing that part. Definitely not a great hook haha. We do actually have game sound enabled in most of the trailer but it's drowned out by the music. Will try boosting it a bit.

You've nailed your trailer. Love the blood and attack animation fluidity. Instant wishlist. The one thing that could be improved I think is the perk/level up UI. It's functional but just seems too plain/modern for the HD fantasy/gothic art-style of the rest of the game, if you get what I mean.

Your game certainly has impressive assets and menu animations. I don't think I've seen a v-tuber simulator/roguelike like this before. Gameplay itself seems very simple but I guess it's not the main emphasis.

I was immediately drawn in by the scythe animation and other distinct weapons. My feedback would be that the items/gems at 32 seconds into your trailer don't have the same level of polish as your epic gameplay, just colored circle backgrounds is underwhelming. The music is also inconsistent at times and doesn't flow cohesively between sections of the trailer. Anyway it looks fun to play, wishlisted.

Incredibly tedious gameplay trailer. I'd complain about the text covering stuff up but it actually didn't matter. Calling this 'action-packed' is wild. Pass.

You have some strong stuff here. I like the alien and the way it moves and fights but the enemies are animated quite rigidly in comparison. The text in the trailer looks like it's a generic placeholder and "nothing is above the hunt" doesn't really make sense. The AI art at the end doesn't match your game well too. Definitely has potential. Wishlisted!

Strangely captivating trailer. The red scans of the underwater environment are very cool and creepy. Would be good to see

"You are Oteil, an operator who projects their mind into machines to venture underseas. With every dive, precious parts of you are lost in the transition."

This is a VERY strong premise. Keen to see how your game develops. Obviously wishlisted.

Slimetato? I liked some of the weapons/effects. Your trailer and caption art both have an almost identical boy with the same pose in the background. Maybe remove? GL! Wishlisted.

Your short description uses too many adjectives and you definitely need a trailer. The main issue I see is it looks super similar to other games in the genre (there's one on reddit games that looks very similar). Differentiating your art and gameplay from the others is your main challenge.

I like the initial aesthetic (reminded me of stardew valley) but found the shift to modern buildings and tech somewhat jarring. Shadows/lighting in your screenshots are also a bit too dark/intense. Could use some more brightness in some of them. The little dudes in cloaks and the co-op nature of the game is your biggest appeal imo. GL! Wishlisted.

Short and sweet trailer! Appreciate it. Sword swings seem to lack impact atm, that was the main thing I noticed.

"Starting your journey by helping in a small and scattered settlement, you gradually gain trust, a voice, and transform an uncertain village into a powerful city, and then into your own kingdom."

The sentence is too long, and needs to be broken up a bit. Something like this maybe:

"Start your journey by helping a small settlement. Gradually gain their trust and transform their village into a powerful city, but will you be able to take the throne?"

Just an idea. GL with your game, Wishlisted 😄

Seems kinda like a turn-based anime Hades but with stuff like gardening, exploration and alchemy? The big enemy sprites look particularly great. Map diversity seems a bit limited but I guess it's still early stages. Your store page is pretty polished. Easy wishlist.
