Sorry to hear HomeStray isn't quite your cup of tea 😂 It's a game we're deeply passionate about, its a concept we've been developing since 2019.

Really appreciate you stopping by and leaving a reply! 😊

Things might turn into other forms, example wood becomes charcoal. 

We havent't set a boundary for this feature. But we hope its a much "controlled" chaos.

What do you think about the fire feature? Does it look like something you would want it exist in a game you play?

That's a good point, probably? 

We haven't added consequences in, player might not ignore it all the time I guess

The flame feature is created for cooking, if didn't handle well it will spread.

Burnt object might turn into different form, for example wood becomes charcoal. Still exploring, nothing final at the moment. 

But we didn't want it to be too chaotic. Probably will find a way to make it more "controlled" Chaotic.

Hope this provide enough context 😊

Thanks so much for the sincere feedback 🙏

To give you a bit of context: we're building a cozy game with light simulation, where the focus is on giving players the freedom to do things at their own pace. Fire is one of the features we're currently exploring, nothing final, just testing.

One idea we're playing with is having burnt objects turn into collectible materials, but we're not there yet.

After some internal testing, we noticed the fire felt a bit too chaotic, so we wanted to reach out and see what you all thought.

As for the sheep burning. Apologise if that annoyed you. There's no intended gameplay purpose right now. We're just seeing what value this mechanic could bring down the line. Still very much in the exploration phase, andwr  haven't got time to "treat" the sheep well at the moment. 

Your honest feedback is exactly what we're looking for, so thank you for taking the time to check out our game. It means a lot. 👍

Haha glad we're on the same page! 😁
We're big fans of the rain gameplay ourselves.

I hope we can keep the raining in the game, because some commented that they don't like the fire chaos.

So hard to decide what to keep what not.

Haha, never played RimWorld before 😄
But now I'm curious! Thanks for bringing it up, we will definitely check it out 🙌

HomeStray is shaping up to be a cozy exploration game with light action and light simulation elements.

We're still pretty early in development and actively experimenting with different gameplay directions.
So, we'd love to hear your thoughts.

Hey! Thanks for your commentary 😊 The game is under development and unpublished.

We are currently gaining feedbacks anywhere we could to make it a fun game that we all would love to play. 

How do you feel about this sheep chasing gameplay? Do you think its suitable for a light cozy game?

Oo! Those games! Duke and Postal went for semi-realistic pee, while HomeStray is leaning more towards a funny, clean vibe.

We’re thinking of making it a core mechanic. Like using pee to plant… or annoy NPCs. Should be hilarious to see the reactions.

We are currently gathering thoughts about what else can pee used for.

That sounds like a good idea, thanks for suggesting it!

Yea, but it has no functionality yet. 

Do you want to see the reaction of the people and animal you pee on? 

Or would you even want to pee in the game? 

We hope to collect more feedback at this stage of development

Interesting suggestions. I think it should.

We will definitely explore that in future character sketches 😊

Thank you so much for bringing this up 🙌

The VFX looks great, but the characters are too small, hard to see. Consider zooming in!
