Viewing post in I give feedback 4 feedback for my frog-taming autobattler game

Hi, I played the game! I generally like the idea of taming frogs to help you in combat and think there is a lot that can be done with the concept.

My biggest feedback would be that the game is lacking in feedback.
There is no sound when you hover over buttons (or anything selectable) and the sfx for making a selection are very subdued when maybe they could be bolder. The combat sfx are also generally subdued and I wonder if combat would be more exciting if the sfx were bolder as well. That was all in reference to sound, but i'd say the visual feedback on making selections can also be bolder in some instances such as when you go to select the map icon or fight button.

other than that --

Getting thrown in, i didn't really understand how to start the game and just clicked everything until i found a play button. So maybe something needs to be done here

On my first run I went back to the pond by accident mid run - so i think an extra confirm button that makes sure it's clear your forfeiting your run would be good here.

I thought a fast forward button could be a good addition to the game. Where fights can happen at 2x or even 4x speed.

Hey thanks a lot for your feedback! That are some points I didnt get before so thats very valuable for me.

I tried out your game x minute hero and I will give you some feedback as someone who has played quite a few of games like this and has kind of got bored of them.

The problem with these games is that there are a lot of them out there, so it will be hard to sell yours if you want to make some money from it. What I like about these type of "vampire survivor"-like games is that you can just relaxfocus on building up your character.

The nine vertical upgrades for your stats felt rather too complex to me, as it slowed down the gameplay too much due to the time spent looking at all these stats and thinking about what to get next. There were too many decisions to make. However, I liked the horizontal upgrades, such as explosions or having a shotgun as your weapon.

Once again, it would be really hard to impress me as someone who has played a lot of these kinds of games. I recently played a game called TerraTech Legion, which included a twist. You could basically build your own character instead of just clicking to get a horizontal upgrade with a UI. Perhaps you could include something like this to spice things up a bit.
