Just released it as a relaxing narrative game. It's my very first attempt at a narrative game and I'd like to get general feedback on it. The gameplay, narrative design, style, etc.
My English is probably not good enough, so I didn’t understand everything. Nevertheless, the game appeals to me, I like the design and the simplicity. I also want to know what happens. I’ve started it three times out of curiosity alone.
What I like:
What I miss:
Thank you so much for the useful feedback. This is very helpful.
The narrative style is very different from most other games. There's no actual story in a conventional sense. You have interactions with characters and your reactions determine what happens. It's a bit like in real life where there's no story, no neat and tidy beginning, middle and end. It's just a series of interactions with consequences.
The first two symbols represent your standing with the government (police badge) and the cult (cult guy). The last two represent your wealth and sanity. The decisions you make affect these meters. If any of them become empty or fill up, you will lose.
