For now, this entire project looks like a hot mess. Downloaded it around 4 times, each download had different files. Fifth time it finally had all the files. Got in and the sound was soooo high. Even at 20% it was echoing in my ears and that was as low as it would go, drowning out everything else i had running, not to mention the loud click every time i tried to modify the PC. It actually made me not want to fiddle with it as much. 

 Open the journal and its...please show you're trying by at least changing out the text from the assets you bought for the survival bit?

Buildings didn't place, wood spawns inside tree stumps or lower and instantly fell through the world, the monster by the beach villa is bugged out 7 ways to Sunday(animation stutters, victory locks him in place, attempting inaccessible animations teleports you back to him, etc).  All penetration is listed as butt, and somehow still got pregnant(wut?).

Don't take this all as B&M'ing, i do hope you can use this to fix the issues/double check spawns/etc. I would like to see this become something.

Yes I agree there are lots of bugs/issues. But that is kind of the point at this stage. The amount of testing and bug reporting I have received would have taken me months by myself and I still would have missed many things. While it's a big inconvenience for the player it's somewhat to be expected this early.

Also good point on the journal, I hadn't even considered that it was viewable as I haven't gotten to creating quests yet. Like you say a lot of stuff is still whatever came with the assets. I guess they can be considered placeholders but I should probably hide them/disable the journal functionality as it looks bad.

I will look in to the sound issue. Haven't experienced myself but also haven't really calibrated the audio levels yet, good feedback!

Also completely missed the part with journal calculations being incorrect.

Very much appreciate you took the time to both report bugs and to share your opinion even if it might be a negative one. Hope you give it another chance in the future!

Just by taking the criticism as constructive you've earned respect from me. As i said, I hope you look at it as something to add to your 'to do' list rather than just negatives. As someone who dabbles in writing, the worst thing a person can do is give generic feedback of "it doesnt work right" or "i dont like it." Specifics help with bug-fixing and issues. The biggest concern for me with the journal is that it makes it look like a 5 dollar flip someone threw together to get some quick cash before abandoning(I've got like, 2 of those in my steam library). In other words: really bad optics. And that can make or break a project. I dont think this is one, and I'd like to see you to avoid those sorts of accusations. Just straight up removing the text and leaving it blank or blacking it out/disabling it would look better.

Based on your feedback I have disabled the journal and some other unfinished parts as well. Im also going through some aspects, like attributes and abilities, to change the default texts and descriptions as I agree fully that the optics are really bad.


However I did not manage to see anything in the journal when I replicated it, it was all empty. Curious to what text appeared for you as no quests should be in the game yet and no journal entries should be added.

Again, your feedback is highly appreciated, thank you for taking the time to write down your thoughts! :)
