Hey Caquitto, thank you so much for playing, and even more for taking the time to write this. Honest feedback is by far the most valuable thing I can get at this stage, so it really means a lot to me.
On both points you raise, I completely agree with you. Music and VFX are absolutely on my list. My honest answer is that I haven’t found the right assets yet: for the soundtrack I’m looking for an ambient track that can loop through a long session without getting tiring, plus something with real punch for the fights, and so far nothing I’ve tried has felt right. Same story for the VFX polish. I’d rather take the time to find the right thing than ship something that clashes with the rest of the game.
As for what’s coming next, I have plenty planned. A few teasers:
• a real world map you travel across freely, Fallout 1/2 style, with places to discover and encounters on the road, instead of the current region menu
• hero levels and XP, so your character grows on its own and not only through the gear you find
• a lot more item variety, to open up many more viable builds
Thanks again for the kind words, it’s great to hear you had a good time with it.
