While I didn't notice tags in the game (I did notice the pet illness thing), I went back to the listings for browser-based games and saw no tags. In fact, I have to click to show more information before being given "Animals, mythology, Short, tragedy" tags. None of this has anything to do with my concerns. Perhaps I missed that this was going to be a "sentimental" game in the game itself.
Looks like this just isn't a game for you, buddy. Considering you missed the larger themes of the game and cannot engage with the design of the game, why not just move on and find a game you actually like or make something you actually will like? No need to put down other players who resonated with the experience either. It's not for you, and that's fine. Go find something you'll actually enjoy.
Anyway, good luck on future searches. I won't be replying anymore to this thread, cheers.
Yes I can see why. Maybe you're the "nice" type who appreciates praise or feedback in line with your priorities and doesn't like criticism of the kind of game you set out to make, something so seemingly basic that it's not very interesting to someone who hopes for something more.
Suggesting you gave warnings that were buried in a drop-down description or even suggesting I missed the "larger themes" is a bit silly, kind of like this game. I'm sure lots of people who played this and commented really feel a weakness for their cats and other pets, and that's cute.
But... don't you think it's a little odd for you to suggest I might "move on" when your game seems to be about the opposite? I play games for distraction, to pass the time to let myself grow stronger until I'm ready to be my best. I hope that a seemingly quality game like yours pretends to be would have just a little more depth and a little less... earnest sentimentality.
But perhaps I've tied you up enough when you're moving onto other things. Best of luck in all your future endeavours, SummerOrigins. Let the kitty litter fall where it may.
