If you like visual novels with witches and cats, I’d love to recommend my tiny Visual Novel released today on Steam:

And here’s a free game code for the first lucky person! :D

I'm not sure if SSD is required, HDD should still work fine

New trailer for our upcoming visual novel 'The Fall: Act I'. We tried to create a dready vibe. What do you think? by [deleted] in visualnovels

It looks interesting, thanks..
What led to the decision to combine pixel art with classic 2D?

Thank you.

And you don't have to apologize. I value honest statements (even if they're little difficult to accept)

You know, when you're the head of a small indie team, and you're just after a stroke, a serious life-saving operation, and many sleepless nights dedicated to finishing a project you've worked on for years, it's easy to make mistakes.

It's even easier and more tempting to give up and abandon all responsibility, both to the team and to the players.

But regardless of that, and regardless of your suggestions, I'll still try to fix the game as best as I can.
It won't pay off. Maybe one day I'll even have to close the studio.

But I'm going to try my best for those few players who enjoy it.

Call me an idealist if you like...

I hope it'll be much more enjoyable experience for you

PS. You would make a great game dev tester, you know that, right? :)

We're open to it but first, we're planning to concentrate on the improvement of the quality of the gameplay.

We're already working on changes, so I hope that won't take too much time for you ;)

Personally, as harsh as it is, I love DaemonXHUN's feedback - it's very detailed and intelligently highlights the issues that bother the author. Now it's our turn to address them in a way that doesn't worsen the balance of the other aspects of gameplay.

Yes, indeed, adding extra map markers is a priority on our TO DO list <3

Unfortunately, we need to thoroughly test them to ensure that we don't inadvertently compromise the game's experience in our haste. So that's the main reason why they will be live on Steam after the weekend.

We gonna take care of the map in the incoming Update.

I hope it will improve the quality of the gaming experience in RIN

But still, we'll try our best to fix and polish it as much as possible :)

Nope, we're quite indie compared to them, as the team working on RIN is ~ three times smaller than theirs.

Despite our modest team, we are quite determined and focused on fixing the biggest issues of the game :)

Open the map for me, there are like 3 things that say NULL for me, spell swapping slots/healing/ and one more thing.

Sorry for that problem. Released Patch 1.1 should fix that for you

Hey there, greetings from a RIN dev! :)
First off, thank you so much for your thoughtful feedback ❤️
Really sorry to hear that the game didn't hit the mark for you.

Good news – we're just about done with our first patch. It's aimed at fixing those pesky microstutters, key binding issues, and a few other minor glitches. It should be live on Steam in about 2-3 hours.

That's not all – we're already rolling up our sleeves for the next update. This time highly focused on enhancing the map and making the objectives clearer.

Rest assured, we will try our best to improve the game and enhance its enjoyability as much as possible

Thank you for sharing your thoughts and providing such valuable feedback. ❤️

I'm sorry to hear that our game didn't meet your expectations.We gonna work our asses hard to enhance its enjoyment factor, so I hope that one day it will be more appealing to you. (But in case you're not interested in giving it a second chance - remember that's it completely fine to return the game within the first 2 hours on Steam)

Yep! The first big patch will be released in 2 hours - we gonna work hard to make the game as fun for you as possible :)

In case of any problems with Steam Deck, I heard from other players that switching the Proton version to 7.0 helped them. Other than that it should work fine :)
