Ahoy there!
Very cool concept! I ended up dying early on because I wanted to check what was behind me while trying to get home, I'll have to play again and see how far I get in the future :) This is only your second visual novel? This is very good and impressive for a second attempt.
I have to say also, the art of the characters is fabulous. Looking at previous comments, yes, yes you did a great job with this one!
To improve next time, it might helpful to change the font. Unfortunately I struggled to read it. I have made a few visual novel projects with Tyranobuilder, but I find the software ends up struggling a lot and corrupts itself. It might be worth while looking into alternatives such as Ren'py for future projects.
All the best, keep dev'ing! Lovely ideas, great submission :)
It was really a good prologue for a mystery-horror/suspense! Being stalked by killer while solving the murder of your friend is really good premise! I somehow managed to get bad end (I mean, that was obvious www) but I played it again and stuck with the plushie. Luckily, I read the comment here, so I didn't think it's broken (maybe you can give a cue that "this game ends here" in game so the player know it?) Good luck with the full game! (≧∇≦)
Thank you so much for your kind words and playing Baggage!! Yes thinking about it now i should have said warned lile a little card saying this is the end.
I'll learn for next time! I'm already starring to write a longer scrupt for the full game!
Thank you and Bless you 💖
A really good start to what I can see would be a fun full game! The music, background art, and UI, are what stuck out to me the most. I also liked the writing , it was a fun read. Really well done!
I did come across a few glitches, the transitions sometimes showed flashes of multiple backgrounds, the game stopped with the plushie as well and I tried to save and load from there to see if that was the ending but the game didn't save, and there were points where the text overflowed from the textbox. The sound effects were also a bit overwhelming sometimes, too loud for the most part, and the text you chose wasn't very readable.
Everyone's comments are honestly making me cry with the support. Thank you so much for playing my game <3
The game does end with the plushie I had to cut it off with a cliffhanger as I didn't have enough time to program the rest, I wanted to push out what I did and see if it garnered any interest. I was really unsure if I did a good job as it's my 2nd ever visual novel and 1st ever horror/thriller related content. So this was kind of a prototype to a potential bigger, better project!
I will keep in mind the font and the volume of the sound effect, the music previously overpowered them and I guess I never thought how loud they were before! Thank you so much again for Playing Baggage!
Have a Blessed day~!
Neat artstyle and character sprites! Intriguing story and nice use of audio. I found the font to be a little abrasive to look at. Unfortunately when the stuffed animal sprite came on screen the game would not continue for me, so I will hold off on rating for now. To be clear the audio kept playing and the menu functions still worked, but no dialog continued.
Actually that was suppose to happen. I wanted to program a full fight scene but ran out of time <3 I wanted to see if this amount of story would be interesting and want to do a better non rushed version~!
Thank you so much for playing until completion!! I appreciate it so much!! I will that keep that in mind, I do apologize if the font strained your eyes, I might have gotten so use to it I didn't think it would bother another eyes.
Thank you so so much for taking interest and playing Baggage~!
Have a Beautiful and Blessed day!
