This is definitely super cool, I love the setting. It’s not super fun right now, and when I started mashing on the enemy turn phase I think I selected an enemy unit and got stuck. It lacks a lot of stuff in these kinds of games (cancel movement for example), but it’s super cool as a proof of concept.
I hope to see more of this!
I tried the open source version, a few comments I don’t know how useful they could be.
Is there anyway to see keyebinds/what commands do? I don’t see a list anywhere and I feel as that would be useful in a game like this with hotkeys.
Can you do anything with the gears of destroyed mechs? It doesn’t seem like you can.
There doesn’t seem to be any way to beat the boss of the first campaign, the mech outguns and outspeeds whatever mech I throw at it.
How do saves work here? Characters I create disappear when I try to use them for a separate campaign.
Game is very fun, although I feel as if I’m missing something.
On the contrary, I think the grayed out option is immersive in the fact that any person would understand that asking again would be fruitless without some form of trust or understanding. To continuously loop over the question makes less sense to me. I think it's a perfect addition, as are the rest of this update bravo.
So after beat the game my only extra feedback I could add would be a transparency effect for things you grab cuz p much everything blocks your view. Some sort of enemy chatter or sound effect for an enemy being near in general would also be good. Does the difficulty increase the time-to-kill for enemies? Sometimes it feels like they're a little spongey. Overall I love the encounters and the weapons a great deal. Super good show.
This is a very fun game! I think some feedback that could be helpful would be to add a sound effect to enemies roping in. Either a sound for the rope or just a sound from them coming down. I also had issues with reloading, when you first enter the early area with the trains after the town is attacked I died and the checkpoint that I reloaded in was outside boundaries.
I love the style here, it reminds me of old PC-98 eroge along with the viewport window and the like. However I want to suggest some QoL issues I found, although I understand you are pushing Ren'Py so some things may not be possible.
- Loading bar for explore. It adds a delay to exploration that I'm not really sure why it's there?
- Nothing events. Rapidly clicking explore over and over and getting nothing, can we add a 'explore until event' button? Accepting the risks of the amount of time to get to the next thing.
- Fast combat. So being able to skip animations would also be nice.
- Any way to reduce cuts to black? There's quite a few when say, you find treasure. It takes long there, too.
I like this a lot though. Would you be able to mention what sort of content/interests we'll see?
I just wanted to say this game has an excellent gun feel, and I love the atmosphere. I would like a method of walking around faster but overall I'm impressed. I do agree with some of the comments involving A.I. range, mouse sensitivity etc, but you already know that.
Anyway, I had real fun with this.
