ATV audio for acceleration is wonkey, it should have a smoother transition. for example if you tap acceleration you can hear the start of the audio clip in a harsh way. The audio should have a rise to max rev. If that makes any sense. 

Dr. Kel needs to have like a 6th sense instead of [save: NULL] indication. An audio cue or the character voicing that "something doesn't feel right."

Some examples could be:
Heavy breathing, breath fog , a quiet heartbeat, scratching noises, directional whisper that makes you turn in the direction of an entity you shouldn't look at [don't look reference], screen effects depending on the entity like tunnel vision, inverted colors, or vision like you are looking through a broken mirror with it's slightly off plain of view. 

Making the moon bigger is a good idea.
You can put a Majoras Mask reference with this suggestion too. I never played it and yet the image still freaks me out. 
It would be funny if you can change the moons reputation based on how much cheese you eat.
A Trip To the Moon reference possible (where the space ship crashes into the moon's eye).
Wallace and Gromit (a grand day out) references possible (which had a coin operated murder robot in it) 

I think using AI music should be considered or even used as a starting place to add more music. Suno.com
ie use AI to create the song and then pay to have it recreated by a musician on fiver or something. I am sure Patreons have skills that can be donated.

Would suggest making a "binoculars" item that the player can use. Anytime I play FPS games, I always like having a weapon that allows me to zoom in cause I can see enemies, sure, but I can also identify and track anything of note. For example, I stored a bunch of stuff in a trashcan cause I couldn't carry all of it in my inventory.
Unfortunately I also am very impatient, so I was throwing it towards the base and eventually lost it. At the moment I'm on top of the radio tower, trying to find the trashcan and can't really see much of anything with the player zoom feature.

I guess this is sort of me complaining about hubris, since I was assuming I wouldn't lose a garbage can in a very densely packed area of foliage near the base, but here we are.

Anyway, binoculars would be neat. Maybe the player could control the current maximum zoom in a menu or something like that, but that might also just might be complicated to make.

(Google translator) I would like the game not to strive to become a horror first and foremost. I don't mind if it has more events and screamers, but I don't want to see them every 5 minutes. At the moment the game looks promising and I didn't find many disadvantages. As for the multiplayer: at the moment I don't know how it is in other countries but in the Russian segment the game is very popular and if the author asked for help, there would be people willing to help or explain how this function works. And I also thought that the game, due to its monotony, could scare off some players, so I suggest adding 2 modes before the game is released on Steam: original and close to horror with a large number of screamers. I would also postpone the optimization of the game for now due to possible reworking of the game and tighten up the optimization before the release of the game.  (I don't know much about game development and programming, so if it's more convenient for you to optimize the game at these stages, that would be even better)

I dont like the number of bosses and the circumstances that force you to fight them, in particular the fire tank one. playing votv you can usually avoid injuries or some events if you follow some conditions. for example, not buing kerfur or immediately make kerfur-o so you dont mess up with the cursed yellow one. didnt listen the rozitals and came up to wisp? welp only you an idiot here, dont mess up with this shit. stole stuff from arirals and they killed you with atv? you are the only one to blame here. came to hole when rozitals explored it? your problem. and everything like that in story mode you can avoid. the hell and diffrent events location is initiative events how they should be. the wisps, redman or shadows is scaring, yeah, and its still dont ruining your expiriece. but a freaking fire tank you need to fight or you will stuck with this in your world forever? hell no, there is just no balace and althernative.

At risk of sounding too vague I'm going to avoid spoilers with this, but I got really annoyed the last time I played. I got effectively soft-locked by a certain random event, with a certain robot running off and then coming back, shall we say. It was about day 8 for me and I had no means to combat this, and it quickly ended the game I had going. If there are going to be hostile events like this, I think there should be a weapon of some kind, or at least make it so things like this can only happen later on when I can afford several health kits in order to progress. I love this game, but I haven't played since 0.8 came out because of this.

This is a nitpick on my part because I don't know who else feels the same way but-
[Spoilers for one of the easter eggs]

It'd be nice to be able to keep the briefcase as decoration instead of it going back to it's original spot every time you load in after moving it. Especially since the easter egg that it's needed for isn't even one that you can do in story mode. It's a nice easter egg and I think it's executed well, but I would also love to just have the briefcase as part of room decor instead of it just being naggingly in the bunker 24/7 and having to move it every time I go back in.

I've already posted in here before, but after getting near the end of story mode and exploring as much new material as I can, there's been three big issues and one nitpick [other than the briefcase] that have bugged me immensely that I feel is justifiable to share and critique.

-The terrain update. I enjoy the new hills and bumps of land that make exploring the forest and searching with the metal detector more interesting, however I greatly dislike the amount of collectibles and easter eggs that are no longer accessible because they either go flying from their now glitched spawn points or they get buried under the new map. I feel like, since it was their own choice to update the terrain, there should've been more extensive checking to make sure a good chunk of the most sought after decorations/collectibles were still working and could be found.
-The molotov recipe is nonsensical. I don't understand why you would need to pour out the alcohol and replace it with gasoline when both substances are flammable and can be mixed together and would still work just fine as a weapon. As well, what is the reason for only using paper trash in the recipe and not being able to use crumbled paper from the notepad? That screws over people who already collected all the paper trash and turned it into paper scrap and now have to go metal detecting to look for more.
-The broken electronics in the new generator buildings, for some reason, can't be turned into electronic scrap, nor do they sell for that much. I wouldn't mind them having a low selling price if the option was there to turn it into scrap, but since that's not the case, then them having a low selling price makes no sense. They can be used as decoration pieces of course, and I think that's good and something I was planning to do myself, but I don't see a reason why they can't be used for parts either. It would have more advantages that way.
-This one is the nitpick; having my Kerfur randomly explode at night and having to wait till morning to be able to turn it on without fear of it exploding again isn't exactly fun, personally. Especially since I have my Kerfur at the console station at all times, so if I afk for whatever reason without pausing the game and it's night in-game, and I come back see that I'm back at the menu because I died from the radioactive capsule from my exploded Kerfur- I think it's a valid thing to be a bit irritated by.

This update has many hits, but these small misses are enough for me personally to not have fun with it that much. Especially since there really isn't that much new stuff to do other than kill the boars and wait to get the new signals. I do still love the game of course and am happy that it's being worked on so hard, I just hope these issues get resolved with the next update.

На самом деле обновление реально классное(как увидел новость, сразу побежал скачивать), вот всё хорошо, всё что вот добавлено, однако, у меня есть несколько предложений, возможно это заинтересует разработчика:

1)Немного больше раскрыть Ариралов как соседей. Это конечно круто, что они тебя и во сне кормят и ништяки оставляют, креветки вот стали синие новые бросать в постель(правда что с ними делать не особо понятно, так как персонаж их не хочет есть даже в приготовленном виде), но как бы на этом всё. Если ты ранее играл в VotV то уже знаешь, что лучший путь наладить отношения с кошко-дамами это носить им в дом креветки в огромных масштабах. А хотелось бы чтобы с ними были связанные определенные ивенты уже ПОСЛЕ того как они высадились недалеко от нас и начали варганить дом и ПОСЛЕ того как твоя репа с ними поднялась до максимума(о чем будет свидетельствовать соответствующее событие(без спойлеров надеюсь)).  Просто в дальнейшем я не заметил какого либо взаимодействия с ними пока они находятся рядом, после ** дня что либо делать уже как бы не хочется(креветосы возить уж точно не охота). Да и увидеть их хотелось бы хоть раз рядом с собой, а не в виде фоток) В общем увеличить значительно способы взаимодействия с ними, включая общение(пусть с опциями выбора ответа как в новеллах, пусть криво, косо, через консоль, но этого уже будет достаточно). Кроме прочего хотелось бы больше новых Аргемий Плюшевых.

2) Добавить больше случайных, реально пугающих событий, звуков, всяких штук. И вплести их в уже существующую сюжетку(не говоря об этом в дев логе). Я когда первый раз играл, столько раз ловил сердечный приступ, что на некоторых моментах вообще выключал игру:) И мне понравилось. Однако играл я с версии 0.7.0 и загрузив 0.8.0 меня пугало только то, что я позабыть успел. В остальном, манекены те же, больше не вызывают паранойи, ты знаешь что будет дальше. Пранки Ариралов тоже не так пугают как раньше. Да и база, стала в разы уютнее, чем была в старых версиях. Нет ощущения что ты изолирован. Особенно зная что прилетят Ариралы и если что они всегда на подхвате(а если ты играл ты знаешь как и почему, если ты конечно не отыгрывал гн*ду и не портил им отдых). Пропало чувство незащищенности. Я как зашел, собрал себе ферму и день на 10 мне уже было всё-равно буду ли я отправлять сигналы или нет, у меня всегда были очки. Я тупо заказал кучу осветительных приборов и уставил ими базу и часть территории вокруг базы и всё, я не чувствую себя больше в опасном месте. Ночью в пределах 20 метров я могу спокойно не опасаясь ходить вокруг потому что я тупо всё вижу. В общем да, игре очень нужна эта доза ужаса и странностей, которая была в новинку в начале. Так же не могу не отметить того, что даже за пределами базы стало куда спокойнее. Ну просто потому что скорее всего, играя в игру в прошлый билд, ты уже знаешь что от игры ждать, даже может помнишь дни сюжетных событий. Так или иначе, хотелось бы больше пугающего рандома, непредсказуемости и этого чувства, когда ночью вообще не хочется выходить с базы. А ещё почему не отключается комп и не отключаются все купленные светильники после отключения электричества - большая загадка. Ну и жути всякой, которую сначала можно не понять, а потом как понять!)

3)Керфур слишком сильно облегчает игру, я бы сказал очень, если речь идет об отчетах. И как бы это хорошо, но если не считать что его можно собрать уже на 3 день и очень быстро прокачать все функции спутников и серверов и просто зашибать тонны очков продавая сигналы сверх плана, а с отчетами так вообще. Я бы перепрятал мануал по керфуру, или добавил несколько частей, в каждой из которых будет добавлена определенная функция. Вроде как омега керфур не сможет собирать отчеты и не сможет чинить трансформаторы, однако если найти мануал с этой функцией(или плату например устанавливаемую в керфура-О), то он уже сможет делать сначала одну функцию, а после установки след платы и вторую функцию. Именно наличие керфура-О убивает тот страх чтобы выходить ночью чинить трансформаторы или например тратить день на сбор хэш кодов. Ну т.е. пусть облегчает, но не сразу, а постепенно. А так ты знаешь где лежит мануал, и комплектующие, и реально на 3 день у тебя уже универсальный работник по сбору данных со спутников, ремонту серверов и электрик впридачу.

4)Добавить больше активностей, за которые др. Бао может наградить очками. Да, сбор хэщ кодов это хорошо, но как я выше сказал, керфур решает эту проблему. А вот если бы др. Бао нам прямо сказал, что нас отправили в аномальную зону и что иногда надо будет выходить со специальным прибором(после его покупки естественно), и делать замеры, а потом фиксировать полученные данные, то было бы замечательно. И чтобы Керфур так не мог. Или мог, но после установки ещё одной платы, которую очень тяжело достать.

5)Так же, увеличение деревьев сделало игру более спокойной что-ли...эти маленькие елочки в которых легко заблудится, они давали игре шарм какой-то. Ну т.е. просто добавить их наряду с уже сущестующими елками.

Yo DrNose, please consider removing direct references to cancer. This makes Dr. Kel's coughing and dimmed vision a real buzzkill. Seeing the injection needle made my heart drop. Pretty rough.

You could call it Bao disease or something. Or maybe have an e-mail exchange where the other scientists happily name the disease after Dr. Kel, because Dr. Kel is the only person on Earth who keeps dangerous alien technology in his own house.

Anyway, I'm just one guy, so maybe not enough reason for you to change the item names and descriptions. However, I'm sure there are other people who are discouraged and will just walk away without saying anything. We like the funny aliens that eat skrimps and slip on banana peels. More of those, please.

The build is pretty solid! The only, single, thing that made me go nuts is the [THREAT], need to be reworked, it's too strong, being stunned by the molotov it's not enough... The windows of time where it's stunned it's too much little, it's kinda soft lock the game and disrupt the natural flow of things.. nose pls

revert the printer back to how it was before 0.8

i dont want to go through every file to just use it

starting around day 45, game performance really starts to tank. i had to reduce screen resolution to 60% and even then, any time i encounter the enemies that spawn during that part of the game, the framerate turns into a slideshow. i have a decent laptop, it's not like i'm running the game on a 15 year old potato, but man it's really bad.

in 0.7, i had no problem running the game at max settings for the entire duration of storymode, with all kinds of 3D printed models and high-res paintings. now i don't get to use much customized content because having too much of it makes the game unplayable.

Cool concept but overall it was an exercise in frustration. I stopped playing on the morning of the 2nd day (Tuesday), but after all the janky stuff and bugs the game was just too aggravating.

 For one, the tutorial needs a bit of work, took me over an hour to figure out how to get the signal to download as the instructions don't tell you what you need to do. It tells you how to adjust the polarity and the frequency but not what I'm suppose to adjust it to. I eventually realized that you needed to get the input on both to %100. A simple line explaining that would have saved me an hour of frustration. In the story mode the polarity and the frequency keep changing even though the adjustments were set to 0, so I simply couldn't maintain a signal long enough to download, effectively soft-locking me from making progress, and this was my first attempt to get a signal at all. Not sure if this intentional, but I had no idea how to fix it, but at this point I had given up trying to play the game.

2nd, I found the controls to be overly complicated and very unintuitive and once out of the the tutorial and into the main game there didn't seem to be a reference for the more complex button combinations. I also found the inventory system to be very cumbersome.

3rd, I guess there is some kind of event where this Black Square shows up in the sky and starts killing you and there doesn't appear to be anything I can do about it other than try and stay out of line of site, which made it impossible to complete the satellite hash number tasks. This is clearly a scripted event because it kept happening around the same time every time I reloaded, but there's no warning for it and I have no idea how to stop it or fix it. Considering this happens the 2nd day, before I've had a chance to really figure anything out it, it's extremely rough and honestly killed the game for me. Maybe don't start with the Black Square of Death on the 2nd day? Like, warm me up first and let me get my head around the basics before throwing the End Times at me.

I like the concept of the game and the art style. All the weird object interactions are really neat and interesting too, but the issues really stopped me from enjoying most of it. I look forward to full release, assuming all the problems get smoothed out.

every time I try to ping a signal it just keeps giving me "error [4] sensor error" does anyone know how I fix this?
