Hi, I'm a streamer from Feedback Quest 8!

I played By Your Own on my stream tonight via the Steam playtest.  The music started a bit loud, even though I don't have my volume at super high levels. Overall, I enjoyed playing this one, it very much reminded me of some mobile match games, but with the looting and basically base defense/inventory management added to it.  I love that each weapon had it's own range, and the electric trap is a nice touch.  The sounds the character makes when hungry and thirsty freaked me out at first, I thought it was monsters LOL 

I wouldn't have minded more story or some goal post to hit beyond just surviving, though maybe I missed it somewhere?  I hope the full game includes character customization (and I'm not saying a chainsaw would be fun, but yes, a chainsaw would be awesome because chainsaws :D).  

I did experience a crash when I changed the settings (lowered audio and capped framerate to 60), though it saved the settings and was fine when I reloaded.  It also wasn't immediately clear that I could turn the boards - once I figured that out, I was gravy :D 

Is there any way to split the stacks?  S,o if I have 5 bandages, but only want to take two with me to loot?

A few grammatical things:

  • When I tried to change the batteries in the lights, I clicked on the generator and it said "you can do that now" - I think that was supposed to be can't?
  • "You trip for one day" - should be you travelled or you drove
  • "I have to reach for the items and they get into the backpack." - I have to reach the items to put them in the backpack?

I'll update this with a link to my VOD once I'm done with the stream! :)

Thank you for your feedback and you for sharing your stream with me, it is very importan see you playing my game to find the frictions in the gameplay and general experience... And I enjoy your "accent" XD

I will put your advice and comment in my TODO list to improve the future version. And I will take a look to that bug.
