This game had a lot of problems but the main one is defenetily the "Whys". Why are you shooting people? Who are you supposed to shoot? What does the skateboard do? it was really stuff that needed to be addressed but that kinda fell back compared to making the main mechanics, which is very wrong. The tutorial was supposed to address a lot of stuff but it just simply wasn't enough, there was way too much stuff. The way tutorial text works wasn't the best either, you can actually dodge by pressing space bar on foot, but I changed a line of dialog which included the explanation, and the skateboard spin is actually a dodge, but it is very hard to notice. And while you can always playback conversations on the tutorial by pressing some red buttons, that also wasn't very clear. Overall, WAY too much shit for it's own good, scope should've been smaller and I agree with all your points. And there was also supposed to be another weapon variation called the "Super Shotgun" that didn't make the final cut, which was supposed to be a more powerful shotgun with less ammo, in order to make enemies more dangerous and give the player more power. And the difficulty was a mistake of pretty much 0  external playtesting, the game kinda got stuck on this box and thus, figuring out difficulty was pretty much impossible, which was another major mistake on my part. Thanks for playing the game, though! We appreciate the feedback and will definitely keep it in mind for our future projects!

Hey there! First of all, thanks for playing the game! Second of all, I agree with a lot of these points. You can actually replay tutorial messages by pressing F on the red buttons, if you get near them it'll say "Press 'F' to replay dialog". But up to these point, no one has actually used it, which means that it obviously wasn't clear enough what they do, so yeah that was a big mistake on my part. More HM style weapons were planned such as melee weapons, but they didn't make the cut, thus making the game seem more GTA than HM, but I think the HM style comes through with a lot of our effects/aesthetics. The weapon speed was actually slower on the original versions, but got upped before final release, and so far, it clearly wasn't fast enough. A hit indicator was also planned but again, time constraints, which obviously mean that the game was just too ambitious for it's own good, and that it should've had a smaller scope. Also, you can pretty much win the game by shooting everyone, and I know I said on a previous post that you're supposed to shoot the red/green NPCs, who are supposed to be gang members, but eventually the game just became a "shoot anyone that moves" game, and it should've been explained as such on the tutorial. Some really good criticism/feedback overall, and again, thanks for playing the game! We will defenetily keep this feedback in mind for our future projects or... maybe a more refined version of this game, who knows. ;)

First of all, thanks for playing the game! Second of all, I agree with a lot of the stuff you pointed out. I think just saying "shoot the green and red guys" would've been a lot more clear and better, it was one of those things that slipped out of the other stuff that we had to do, but the game can pretty much be played by shooting at everything, because even normal peds can be aggresive! I would say that the pistol and shotgun sounds are impactful on slow mo but you can barely hear them, bad sound balance on my part. And the more I heard the SMG sound, the more I hated it, but there was no time to change it. Overall, really good feedback you just gave us! We'll be sure to keep your points in mind for our future projects! And again, thanks for playing it, and cheers!
