How many endings does this game have?

A Fun Day with Laura - my first visual novel. In most other VNs, which choice is good and which is bad is fixed and doesn't change in between games. In my game, it's different. To get the good ending, you have to think and solve a puzzle instead of merely knowing which choice is good and which is bad. 

My strongest skill is programming, so a visual novel is very different from the kind of game that I usually make. It was fun to do something new. 

This is a fun and simple game. I like the gameplay. I think there should be more features to it, maybe some upgrades or power-ups.

I can't figure out this game. I can only walk around. I don't know what other things to do. 

Is there a storyline of some kind? Right now it's just accepting/rejecting forms and running away. If I'm missing something then there should be some kind of indication that there's more content. 

I like the art style and music, but I think the instructions can be made a bit more clearer, such as a tutorial of some kind. 

I like the fact that it gets more intense when there' s a storm. However, it's a bit simple and not very unique. Also, is there no sound?

I think there should be some kind of overarching goal. Right now it's just repetition of the same thing over and over again. 

I liked the incremental part but I think that at the beginning, you can unlock more features faster. Also, put some "teasers" for new/different stuff so people will want to unlock them.

I don't really understand the game. I run around for a bit then suddenly stop running, and it randomly says "mission failed"

I beat a monster, clicked "heal unit", then clicked a cat to heal. Their health bar went up then the error occurred.

Look at how Rebuild 2 does it: the icons show the amount of zombies, if there is food/survivors, and so on.

I haven't played any autobattler games. I have played the other kinds of games though. But I don't see the relation between those games and this game.

A lot of people play and don't rate. I got 13 browser plays and only 4 ratings. 

For example, the sentence "Items need sets equal colors min 3 to horizontal line". 

"Items need sets" and then "equal colors". The first part is already a complete sentence, so it doesn't make sense for the second part to be there. Do you mean "Items need sets of equal colors"? Then what does "min 3 to horizontal line" mean? It doesn't make sense at all.

Then the next sentence: "Equal color blocks near by vertical and horizontal will clear". You have "Equal color blocks near ____ will clear", in the blank should be a noun phrase, and "by vertical and horizontal" is not a noun phrase. 

Pressing "I'm stuck" should give you a hint on what to do next, displayed at the top, in the same place as all the other messages.

Path of Exile is similar to Diablo

I played the first two levels, the first one was easy but then the last wave of the second level really destroyed me. I like how you have to manage two resources (money and ore) but I think the difficulty curve can be lowered a little bit. Especially at the beginning when I don't have a lot of resources to use.

It's just jumping over flames. Is there anything more to this game? If not (and I didn't see anything), then the gameplay is repetitive and not unique. 

I wish there is a way to attack without being directly across from the enemy. I can move my units there but then I can't given them cards on the same turn. I know that the enemies move as well, but then the game becomes luck based as you have to hope they move to where you want them to. 

The interface is confusing and the tutorial isn't really a tutorial. I didn't understand what to do it didn't tell me much. I couldn't even kill all of the enemies in the tutorial since one of them is unreachable. 

This is tagged as a horror game but it starts off a bit too slow. If there is a jumpscare or horror scene, I didn't get to it. I don't really like horror games so I didn't play too much of it. 

The game does become repetitive very fast. It's very simple and there isn't a lot of variation. You just do what the enemies on screen tell you to do. I think making it get faster over time, introduce new enemies, and add upgrades ( shoot faster, etc. think of how Temple Run does it) would make it better, or even just add coins to increase score. 

I think that since the AI doesn't upgrade their units, after you survive your early game with economy boom (and don't lose your base as a result), it's just really easy. The second unit is a bit strong since they have so much HP and the AI doesn't seem to use them.

Is the black box the player character? It keeps on moving to the top left all the time. I click on the balloons and sometimes it goes there but the balloon count doesn't go up. 

The game is a bit confusing at first. I didn't make the connection between shooting bullets and making pillars at first, since the bullets take a long time to expire. I was also confused by the "approach the terminal" part. I don't know what the terminal is or what it's supposed to look like. 

Things I liked were the art style and music. 

I like the puzzle mechanic and it's very unique. The controls a bit counter-intuitive since WASD keys are associated with movement and not casting abilities. I think it should be something like 1/2/3 to choose ability (and switch to ability using mode), then WASD to use it (or ESC to cancel ability using mode), and WASD to move if there is no ability selected. 

I like the amount of features that it has and all the different ways you can upgrade your character. The game's difficulty curve is a bit too easy at the start. For the first 5 levels it felt that I was just doing the same thing over and over again. Even the boss at level 5 is too easy. Also, the transitions between levels, and the time it takes for the enemies to spawn should both be faster to minimize the time the player spends waiting around. 

A few suggestions to improve:

• The player should move faster, it's too slow and it's tedious to go from place to place.
• A feature where you find survivors, build a base, etc. would be good.
• Some kind of storyline or goal other than just "survive". Add a way to "win".

Things I liked : the music, also the collecting resources part.  

I didn't understand the game at all. There is a tutorial but it doesn't explain much. It explains how to make joints or something which doesn't mean anything if I don't know what a joint is at all. I think an interactive tutorial where it guides you through the process of making a machine and then have it fight against a small AI opponent would explain a lot. 

I got the bad ending, then I chose the other option and the game switched to Thai. I stopped playing after that since I don't speak Thai and therefore couldn't understand the game. 

I didn't really understand this game. I was clicking random options and hoping for the best. I was just trying to make as much money as possible so I just recommend every procedure. If there is a negative consequence to that, it should say so.
