I'm having trouble getting past the fight minigame. It seems more or less like plenty of guessing or I haven't caught on to how it works exactly. I subbed at the highest tier to get the story after the fight, but since I can't seem to get past it, and a victory is necessary to get beyond that stage, I'm stuck!
I'll give it a few more tries but if I'm unsuccessful, it might be better to just drop it an move along.
Hey!
Totally get that the fight feels tough — especially since you're probably controlling Matt in the minigame. The good news is you just need to win the minigame itself, and the story picks up right after.(in the sense you don't need a perfect win - that will lead to a secret ending <.<)
A few tips:
- The opponents adapt to your last moves. Just like in real life, if you keep playing the same card, they'll catch on and adjust.
- After your HP drops to 0 for the first time, you unlock a unique skill. Don't forget to use it — it's in the bottom-left corner.
- You can bait your opponent. If you've been playing defensive for the last few rounds, there's a high chance they'll try to counter with an evasive. Catch this logics and the fighting mini games will become easy for you ;)
Think of it like playing against a real person. It's not luck alone — it's adaptation.
That said, we're working on making the system clearer on this front, because we understand it's not obvious enough how it works and that can leave people stuck in a loop.
And yeah — supporting Matt does ramp the difficulty up. Because such as in real life, if he trained like that and let himself get to that point of exaustion… it would be extremely hard to pull anything off well.
Don't give up! Just know you're going down the hardest path of them all — so feel proud if you make it through. Good luck, and we hope you enjoy what comes next ;)
PS. Your choices, both outside of combat and during the critical moments inside it, influence buffs and debuffs — try to use that to your advantage as well - and expect more clarity on the system and perhaps guides in the future.
That was very nice of you to respond to my message, and so quickly too! It's much appreciated! Despite hitting the wall, which for me is that fight minigame, I am, or rather was, enjoying the story and it's characters. The game has plenty of potential to be truly great!
I'll keep at it and see what happens.
Thanks again!
I must commend you on an interesting game that has a great deal of promise. However, I feel I must let this title go until it's more complete.
After achieving the Matt victory in both matches, without any special assists, I felt a sense of excitement to finally continue the story, only to be met with a very abrupt and anticlimactic end. I won't spoil what happens but I was hoping for more story, which is why I subbed on Patreon in the first place.
I understand this, like many other similar games of this type are works in progress and there is still more to come. Even with that being the case, it's better for me to continue this adventure further down the line or closer to it's completion.
It's not your fault really. I should have measured my expectations.
I wish you the very best of luck with this project!
Noooo! If I understand correctly that is the secret ending ! The story does continue a lot after that, more than an hour of Gameplay. You just got so good you've done a perfect win - winning without losing a round with Matt which leads to the said secret ending.
But I now realize that it may lead to that feeling if we are not clear enough about it.
To make it clear. Winning the two rounds in a go with Matt leads to a secret ending.
Winning 2 rounds while having lost 1 continues the story.
