Very cool concept! I had fun with it for ~30 minutes before moving on. Definitely some areas that need polish (Catalog Menu). It took me a second to grasp all of the mechanics at first (didn't really understand what merging was doing and that collecting 3 pieces and a blister yielded a full figure), but I figured it out eventually and thought it was a nice piece of progression. Something that I would recommend, if not already planned, is for each piece (figure, accessory 1, accessory 2, and blister) to each have a quality/grade rating (poor, fair, good, excellent, pristine) and for each of these grades to affect their attributes. That way you can quickly throw together 3 pieces and get something serviceable, but you'll scroll through the listings everyday hoping for something better to assemble into a better figure.
Thank you very much for your feedback. I am super happy that you played that long :)
I think it's a great idea ( the quality / grade ) I'll definitely go that way to make it more interesting. I guess I should maybe also able to disassembling sets so that you can change parts with better ones along the way.
It's a great way to do more with less ( visuals ) so I really like that idea.
Thank you very much for your help !
I just tried again, and the bug didn't persist, so I wonder if it was just something weird that happened because it is in the web. Getting to play again with the different qualities was nice and adds a new "gambling" kind of mechanic where sometimes it's a question of do I buy 3x arrows hoping one is better than the one that I have, or do I buy this archer 3 pieces and see if it might have 2 good pieces on it that I can use. So, I think it is a nice addition.
Thank you very much for the feedback ! I tried to recreate the bug you described but could not see it yet, I'll keep it in mind still in case :).
Yes I think I like it as well. What I did is basically that if you buy an " underpriced " item there's more chance that it's bad, but still a little chance that it's good and if it's overpriced, there's more chance that it's good quality. ( It also mimics bit more buying and selling on Ebay or online marketplaces, if you do that with playmobils sets or Lego for example ).
I am going to try adding a few more units and fix a few more bugs before next build :)
Thanks again for the feedback ! I'll try to get you a Steam Key once I am in there.
