SIGMASUCCOUR'S PROFILE

TheRpgmakerAddict = Hello dreamers!

Buahahahahaha! XD

TheRpgmakerAddict = OF COURSE I played and reviewed the first episode in the past

OH MY GOODNESS! I may have missed that review...

TheRpgmakerAddict = writing is pretty good and the graphics? Well simply awesome! Really, the game is a pleasure to look at, much better than the first episode

Super happy to hear!

TheRpgmakerAddict = Any flaw? Well I found just a couple

Noted, noted. __〆(。。)

TheRpgmakerAddict = I especially like Succour that embodies creativity and is fond of videogames (like Tales of Berseria!).

Yaaaaay! ( ˙꒳​˙ )


Thank you so much for this review, and for your kind words. (〒﹏〒)
Happy you liked it and found it so good & interesting!

thesacredlobo=I'll admit upfront that I'm probably not the best person to review the demo for "False Spaces" since I'm not a fan of horror games or visual novels and this project happens to be both.

Super happy you still decided to download and play the game. Giving it a chance.
I deeply appreciate this TheSacredLobo.

thesacredlobo=...the way this game presents itself really gets under my skin.
...but it just rubs me the wrong way since the lack of context just makes the game come across as rude.
So I hope the game isn't going to be like this when it's finished.

Ahaha... ha...ha... (￢‿￢ ) Yeah that's how the whole game goes.
The girl tries to sleep, but those rude thoughts force her awake. Then there's a cutscene of her trying to resolve those thoughts. Which adds context.
Then she tries to sleep again. And the cycle continues

thesacredlobo=On a more positive note the game contains a lot of custom artwork. As such the game definitely has a unique visual flair going for it.

Happy to hear! (⁀ᗢ⁀)

thesacredlobo=Albeit I'm not the biggest fan of the three dimensional models used in certain sections of the game since they come across as more lifeless than your standard two dimensional sprite. So much so that the only thing I can really compare them to is that creepy lifeless looking image of Rikku when she screams the word monkey in "Final Fantasy X-2".

Ahahaha... I agree. Glad I used both. The 3D model, and 2D sprites.

thesacredlobo=As for if this demo is worth taking a look at. I'm a lot less willing to offer up an opinion on that since this game falls into two genres that really aren't my cup of tea as it were. Though the game only containing around forty minutes or so worth of content if you go out of your way to explore every possible choice you can make is something to keep in mind if you are interested in checking this one out.

Thank you so much for mentioning all this. (╥﹏╥)
Thank you for this review. And for being completely raw. ( ´ ▿ ` )


P.S, super sorry for attending to your review this late.

The Sacred Lobo...thank you so much for playing! And for writing this review.

While I've already written the story and dialogues for False Mercy. It is best to expect the other parts are not coming out. (I intended my current project, to be released 10 months ago. But here I am... still working on its demo... haha. So there's no reasonable expectation, except to expect the lowest.)

Thank you so much... for noticing and saying:

"Every line of dialogue is written in a very personal and intimate manner, such that you can't help but feel as if it was written from firsthand experience." ~ Marmalade

Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!
I can't tell you what reading these words right now, have just done for me....

Still, let me try. (I want to sort these thoughts I'm having right now)
I put myself in my games as the main character, just to get this effect. (Of it feeling like an intimate, first hand experience.)
Imagining the story to be real, and happening around you is the easier bit.
The hard part... is to do this knowingly.
To knowingly put yourself in situations that will emotionally overwhelm you.
And when you're there, and emotionally overwhelmed... and you have an honest response.
Then be brave to put it in the game. No matter how silly, brutal, or vulnerable it shows you to be.


Using the same process... I recently wrote a scene for my current project.
After writing and reviewing it, I became disturbed for the next 2 days.
And so I started questioning myself... is this level of investment worth it?
Is this... working? And making my games noticeably better?


This question has been laying at the back of my head since then.
And it's been... dragging me down.

So... thank you, Marmalade. Thank you for this review, and for your kinds words.
I see now that it's working. And so I'd like to continue improving on this effect in my work.

Any chance you can upload it as a Mac app? I think you can do it on Windows, even though you can't test it. I could play it and send you a list of bugs if you want.

Edit:

By bugs I mean for playable purposes, not the game itself.

A very tempting offer. Thank you, really.
I'll think on it. I'm simply so swamped these days (and right now) I don't want to divert any attention from my other priorities. (Exporting for windows itself was a bit complicated. Since I have to go through some hoops for maximum performance.)

If I decide on it, I'll contact you. And you can let me know if you're still available for it. Thank you!
