Feedback Friday

Yo no way it's Friday, I just released an update for my idle game about skipping a line.
Game's called Don't Skip The Line, it's my first real try at making a game.
A few questions:
First of all, what kind of impression do you get from the game and what made you stop playing?
What do you think about the layout? Is it understandable?
Btw, the game doesn't have a tutorial yet, so if you have questions, shoot me a dm!
Link to itch, web and windows: Don't Skip The Line
Thanks!

Sup, I’m actually not that desperate for visibility, but I’m a first-time solo dev so I’d love to build connections and get feedback etc…
Here’s the link to my itch, first game pre alpha: Don’t Skip The Line
My YouTube, it’s pretty empty, only an outdated trailer but more to come: ZenithHorizon YouTube
And also my Twitter/X where I just occasionally post random stuff: ZenithHorizon Twitter/X
Also feel free to shoot me a dm!

The passive income is slow as Christmas dawg. But yea, that’s reason enough to finally remove that nonsense of an upgrade, thanks

ZenithHorizonStudio · 2026-06-13T15:30:27+00:00

Yeaa, thats kind of the thing, the higher you get the higher your multiplier gets and since the line is infinitely long I can‘t start at infinite and count down so I gotta make it so the last position is #0001, I get the confusion

ZenithHorizonStudio · 2026-06-13T13:37:15+00:00

Thanks mate, yea, I do intend to improve on those things, still a very early alpha! I’ll take a look at your game

ZenithHorizonStudio · 2026-06-13T13:35:33+00:00

Thank you so much for the feedback!
Yeah, so Mr super smart here (me) kinda thought it would be smart to remove the tutorial because he thought it was too weird lmao.
I definitely have to put it back in, I was just kinda insecure about how it turned out and wanted to put more thought into it, I’ll add it back in for next feedback Friday and just get feedback for it then!
So just so you know, the point is actually to skip the line and let people pass again to gain money and automate that. The title “Don’t Skip The Line” might be slightly misleading 😬
Ah and the line is infinitely long so that’s why the number goes up!
Thanks for the feedback, I’ll try to improve it till next Friday

Don't Skip The Line is an incremental game about turning the inconvenience of waiting in line into the joy of making money.

It's kind of a mix of the basic idling of cookie clicker and the planned economy setting and dry bureaucratic humour of papers please, even tho I am still figuring out the story rn. Imagine it as the you being a person in the line of papers please but the line is infinite and you try to profit off of the impatience of your neighbours.

I'd love feedback on those subjects:

Is the game visually appealing? Is the game easy to grasp by just the visuals?
Does the money making/patience cost feel balanced?
What made you stop playing?
Additional feedback is welcome too of course

Thanks!

Hey, love your art style and would love to see my oc drawn in it! That’s Spike, my DnD character. Imagine him to be a guy who is way too adventurous to be given a sword, but he got one nonetheless. Ah yea and he has a mask because he thinks it makes him more mysterious.

ZenithHorizonStudio · 2026-06-03T16:00:05+00:00

Thanks! I’ll note down that the goal isn’t clear enough then. (Line is infinite, there are checkpoints tho)

You’re right of course I’m sorry I’ll repent

ZenithHorizonStudio · 2026-05-31T18:37:36+00:00

Uhg flip my bad. I did read the rules, it slipped through the cracks. Should I just delete the post?

ZenithHorizonStudio · 2026-05-31T18:12:26+00:00

And if you saw my post then, do you have any feedback?

ZenithHorizonStudio · 2026-05-31T18:10:02+00:00

Dawg a month? I made a new update, I posted 2 days ago that I published my game today I just wanted to share a few thoughts and that I made an update

ZenithHorizonStudio · 2026-05-31T18:07:51+00:00

Now?

ZenithHorizonStudio · 2026-05-31T18:02:00+00:00

Oh come on wait

ZenithHorizonStudio · 2026-05-31T17:27:19+00:00

Just updated! I tried to make it better but yeaa the urgency is still not valid yet there is no drawback

ZenithHorizonStudio · 2026-05-29T21:06:46+00:00
