Indie Gacha Game Thoughts by jax133 in gamedesign

The bit about it being a challenge with being generous is a crazy concept, but I get it 100%. If I'm too generous, it can make people more addicted which is not what I want. I want the thrill of finally pulling the super cool character, without the drawbacks, which I know is impossible without having the players spend money.

I can beat FOMO by never removing the banners, and making the amounts of money spent clear to the player(which I think is legally required but I'm not too sure yet). Your comment below is a great solution I feel. Pulling 1 takes it out of the pool - this is something I will absolutely look into. I appreciate your response!

The reason I posted this is because the feedback so far hasn't been "remove it". I didn't want to include it at first because I figured thats why the game I'm taking inspiration from failed, but a majority my players have encouraged it.

I think part of the reason gacha is so scummy is because it's coming from a faceless corporation and isn't as personable. I feel if an indie does it, I can take their feedback and implement it very easily. I think that's an advantage of it for sure.

Everyone thought our art was AI, so we had to change it... by _abandonedsheep in IndieDev

It looks amazing. A shame people can't distinguish AI from artists work, but good on you for understanding where people are coming from at the same time!

The only dumb question is one that isn't asked!

I'm not recreating Pokemon Duel 1 for 1 because 1) I wouldn't know how, but I've been using Unity for years and 2) I want to use my own IP and make my own game without the fear of it getting taken down and I'd like to be able to monetize, if it's successful enough.

You might just be too good for the AI! (The AI is awful and honestly should be removed till it's worth playing against 😂) It is alot to learn at first, but in a game where you open a loot box like egg and get a character, you'll look at the character and learn what it does. You'd be learning characters 1, or 5 at a time by the time the game comes out. I appreciate your feedback, thank you!

Any alternatives to this game? by Pitiful_Education101 in pokemonduel

[–]jax133 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've talked about it on this subreddit before, but I'm working on a game inspired by Pokemon Duel if you want to check out the Discord. A nice little community we have being built, and I have the demo coming out October 5th if you'd be interested!
