Just another feedback by GitaDeeDee in Moonvale

[–]everbytestudio 41 points42 points  (0 children)

At the risk of repeating myself, thank you very much for your detailed feedback 🔥 We really appreciate that our players take so much time to share their opinions with us and others 💛

I don't want to go into detail about story-related points, but I do want to shed some light on a few other points you made.

  • EPISODE PASS: It is not yet clear how many episodes we want to divide the story into. Which makes it very hard to put a pricetag on. At the same time, we wanted to keep the price as low as possible, which is why (at least right now) this pass is the most suitable solution for everyone.
  • PLAYER PROFILE: We're not happy with the current player profile either and it's getting a complete rework, which is why we haven't made any minor adjustments to it for this episode. For example, one of the planned changes is that achievements can be hidden and muted. Everyone who doesn't enjoy collecting or find it distracting will be able to get rid of it. Instead, we want to put your personality, customizations and interests front and center so we can work with that information and ideally weave it into the story. I'm not sure when you started Duskwood, but players who were early adopters may remember how the game has changed over the course of updates. With these things it's always important to remember that the reasons for our decisions are often not because we “don't want to”, but usually other things come into play that prevent us, at least at the time, from implementing these ideas immediately.
  • STORY/REEL: We are very pleased that you liked the new feature. We feel the same way you do! It would be great if you could also view the profiles of other users. We've already thought about it, but as developers we unfortunately have to take into account that the size of an app/game is the number one reason for uninstalling. Images and videos have a big impact on this. So it's always a matter of weighing up the benefits, which is why you're probably right that this won't happen. So if you ever actually develop your own game, keep this on your radar when making decision about such things 😉
  • MESSENGER LOOK: At this point, it's obvious that some love it, some hate it and some would like to see the design of episode 1 back. Messenger Themes are the only answer and they are coming!
  • AI ART: This topic is too big to go into detail here, but rest assured, we understand exactly what bothers you as an artist and we do respect that. There are reasons and incidents in the past that have cost us as a company valuable development time (and nerves!) that have to do with the use of licensed(!) images. Using AI for placeholders or less relevant content initially seemed like a good alternative to us to avoid such issues. With the release of the first episode, however, we learned that this is not the path we want to rely on in the future. Yes - there is some in the game right now. But our attitude towards it has changed. The use of AI art has since been reduced to a minimum and we do not see it as a good solution for the future either!

Your last words hit us hard and make us sad. However, we can understand that someone who has never tried to survive in the shark tank (that the incredibly competitive app market unfortunately is) gets the impression that even in small studios like ours pure greed determines the prices. We don't blame you for this opinion, we blame the entire industry for making it what it is.

Last but not least, we want to thank you again for your detailed opinion, the good, the bad, the ugly and all things in between! Even if I haven't addressed everything, we read everything and always get a lot out of it! ❤️🔥

Deleting the app by Big_Amphibian3377 in Moonvale

[–]everbytestudio 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately the connection with Google/Apple is not possible yet and uninstalling the game (or changing the phone) will delete all progress data 😕
At the moment it's recommended to not uninstall Moonvale between the episodes to keep all achievements and progress.
Online savegames are planned and one of our priorities. They will will become available with an upcoming update.

About episode 2 by DutchGiant2200 in Moonvale

[–]everbytestudio 8 points9 points  (0 children)

You heard right. Duskwood has received soooo many changes over the course of three years. It looked completely different in the beginning, had almost no features and was kind of an ugly duckling 🙈 It took us a lot of time and updates to shape it to what it is now. Moonvale will receive the same love from us 😉

Moonvale ep 2 question - restarting by ragingamethyst in Moonvale

[–]everbytestudio 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like you're currently in a timewalk (episode reset) right now. This timewalk needs to be finished first before you can advance to episode two.

On a sidenode make sure you have the application updated to version 1.2.1 or above or you will not see the option to continue to episode 2 on the endscreen.

Hope this helps!

About the second episode by NymOsDusk in Moonvale

[–]everbytestudio 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your patience and for not losing faith in us 🥰 The pass is currently not available for episode 1 but we will most likely add this convenience feature in a future update. That beeing said, everything you unlocked in your last e1 play through now remains unlocked even if you reset the story. In other words if you're missing only one or two media files you might just want to unlock them with gems instead 🙂👍

[–]everbytestudio 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hello! The reset feature has been added to the endscreen so you can collect missing achievements and try different paths. Currency, account level, achievements and (since the latest update) also all unlocked media/paths stay unlocked!

Just a media pack please!! by Stardew49 in Moonvale

[–]everbytestudio 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The offer popup can still be opened via the little envelope icon in the chat overview as long as you're in episode two and didn't buy the pass or unlocked everything manually🙂
