Hey, congrats on getting to Anya! 🎉 Yeah, she’s a bit tough, but that’s actually intentional 😜

Oh wow, I didn’t expect you’d restart the whole game just to get through the gate! I actually patched it so you could get past it simply by reloading your save 🙈 I really appreciate you taking the time to restart it anyway 🙂

And thank you for the bug reports! Those are actually known issues at the moment, but I don’t consider them high priority right now 🙂 You’re always so precise and detailed with your feedback, and I really can’t thank you enough for that 🙂

Anya was actually mentioned in a side dialogue, but you learn more about her after defeating her. I wanted to go for a sort of “survive first, investigate later” approach.

And to answer your other question: the demo doesn’t end immediately after the boss fight 👀 There’s still a little more narrative afterwards 😉

Thanks again for all your feedback, it’s genuinely really helpful 🙂 I wanted the player to feel a bit desperate to escape the mines before facing the boss, and to play a little with the feeling of isolation. I hope I did it 🤣

Let me know when you defeat Anya 😁

Still can't beat her haha. I think this boss fight turns the game into a sort of precision and timing type of game, which blurs the genre a bit.

Have you shared the game in other communities like Discord, Reddit etc.? Could be helpful to get some more eyes on this. Maybe drop a link in the r/playtesters subreddit.

Yeah she's a bit hostile by design :P Thanks for the feedback, I'll look into it and check if there's something I could do in order not to break the genre. I never thought of it as a precision game, that's a new interesting insight :)

I haven't shared on any community yet. I'm not really good with Discord :) And I've tried Reddit, but I don't seem to have enough Karma... I don't even know what that means honestly :') But I'll check that subreddit you mentioned, thank you very much :) I always appreciate your feedbacks :)

Yeah Reddit's kind of annoying to use if your account is new. 😅 From what I understand, you gotta start by commenting on other people's posts and show you're an active member to "build karma" (credibility) before posting to some subreddits.

r/IndieDev and r/gamedevscreens are good ones to start with, since a lot of devs post WIP and ask questions there to get feedback.
