I got both the 10k Gold (with ~60 reputation and suspicion) and 100 reputation & suspicion endings. 

This is a very charming game. The inciting incident isn't just there to decorate the game; it has lore significance. The game mechanics definitely got me hooked, and I think the lack of actual guides within the game adds to the lore. The apathy in this city is ridiculously distasteful - and almost reminds me of day-to-day interactions in the workplace - and it helped me support the protag's journey. I also liked how you really tried to maximize your use of the custom tilesets.

I didn't know why I keep getting the same news for "Deals". 😅 At some point I was going to the Market everyday and I couldn't find the guy. I gave up on using it. While it's not a deal breaker (hah), I feel like you could give it a bit more polish.

One thing I would've appreciated is to have more interaction with the Mage Guild chores. After I got acquainted with most of the variations, they became tedious to go through, as their repetitive nature means that I can only treat them as text boxes to skip over.

Another thing I would like is if the game displayed the exact number of how much your stats actually increased or decreased; even a simple "+1 Reputation" would do. The word descriptions were great and added to the game's atmosphere, but not being shown the numbers meant I was on the edge of my seat until I was allowed to control the protag open the mirror.

I hope you're still working on the new version of the game. The preview you showed in the Waypoints system looked great.

Thank you for making and sharing this game! I had a wonderful time!

Thank you for playing! I’m glad you enjoyed the gameplay and setting. I wanted to create a world where neither side is really the good one, just equally petty haha.

I’ll be honest, this project got sidelined by other work, especially as it started growing in size and complexity. Funny that you mention the “chores” since I actually planned to turn them into minigames. Progress has been slow, but the project isn’t abandoned.

The deals feature is a mess. It’s supposed to spawn a special buyer for the next day, but it keeps breaking. It might need a full rework. Sorry about that!

The update has a lot in it, but I definitely overdid it. It won’t be out soon, but it’s still in the works. Thanks for your interest, it really helps keep me motivated!
