Hello, I just played this game and I was aiming to get all 6 endings. On my 4th ending, I went back straight to the prologue to get an ending there, but then all of my scene selection is now blank and I have to replay through the entire game. That honestly killed my motivation to be honest after spending so much repetition to seew if the crown did anything… ;_;
Hello! Thank you so much for playing Moonlit Blessed first of all!!
I'm so sorry that happened! If you have any other saves, you can try reloading from a previous one if it helps recover progress. The scene select has a warning to tell that the progress after the selected scene will be reset, but I can make it stand out more in a future update so accidents like this don't happen ;v;
If in another moment you want to give it another try, you can skip through the dialogue a bit faster by holding shift+z! If it helps too, at the moment the crown doesn't change much aside from the decision to choose who carries it. But in a future update, maybe something else might happen...?
I somehow missed that it will reset progress. I had been staring at it for a while and I struggle to remember where it was placed.
About the skipping. Well, the thing is, I did do that but there are a lot of micropauses in almost every dialogue? I changed the FPS using Hime’s FPS Control to around 250 FPS just to get it to the Visual Novel skipping speed, but it still takes quite a while to get there. There’s also long segments of cutscenes before the dialogue I would be interested in.
I wish I knew the crown did nothing, I did exhaust every choice to get there. I am surprised how much importance it was given to it from the previous scene and it doesn’t affect anything. I was hoping it would reveal more about Dot too (aside from obvious connections).
That being said and I don’t want to come across as only being a negative nancy, I want to give praise to the atmosphere and music selection. It really felt like it’s evoking the Lord of the Rings vibe but still remaining cozy. I like the CGs a lot too. I like the use of Lunacy which is often associated with the moon.
If I have one major gripe though, I wish the character portraits didn’t have the almost exact same pose. That being facing the camera. It would’ve been nice if one of them had a slightly tilted pose like Dot. It was reaching uncanny vibes at some points because their expressions are very limited and sometimes too similar.
Great work for a one month jam game!
No worries at all, I appreciate the feedback a ton! Knowing what doesn't work well helps me know what to improve when I get to work on the post-jam update! I'm taking note of all of this.
Unfortunately with the time limit of one month I had to cut out some stuff, like the crown part or making more detailed sprites, so hopefully I can add everything properly in the future. :')
I'm glad you were able to enjoy part of it nonetheless! Thank you so much!!
