OK, now I’ve figured out how to play properly, I went and replayed the game 4 times x)
I hope it’s not too much of a spoiler for others if I post my first result:
Though my fav was the one I got after feeding him only cotton! :3 So cute and plumpy!!
Overall, I really enjoyed the game, and will probably replay a few times more to see more of the “base” dragon forms as well (I feel like I figured the way combos work visually so mostly curious about base ones now).
The art is fantastic, it’s super cute, animations are adorable as well; the way lil dragon stretches his neck a little, for example, was so precious. I loved playing with him and taking care of him ^v^
The gameplay of finding out different combinations and base forms is very engaging and fits the theme super well!
I liked the sound effects too, quite adorable! I have to say it’s impossible not to rate audio as I need to check all the categories here to submit my vote. I can rate 1 as you said music is not yours but other audio is by you so it becomes a bit complicated.
In terms of nitpicks:
- I didn’t realize right away that I need not to just click on clean/pet function and click on dragon and be done, but actually hold it there for a while. Especially since click-click works with food and medicine. I feel like it could be helpful to specify somewhere?
- When the dragon decides to go to sleep, at first there is not visual indication, but you can’t interact with him anymore, because in reality he has already started his night time routine. Maybe adding some visual effect that shows he is getting ready for sleep would be helpful, so this aspect is not confusing ^^
What else…
Really liked the way main menu is presented, with a little clicker mini game incorporated in there. All the food items and their little animations also look fantastic.
And, I noticed each time it was a different total amount of foods required for evolution. Or is it simply timing? Probably not, as when I couldn’t feed my dragon, it obviously wasn’t growing up (I waited a long time then, I think). So I am a bit curious what is the threshold for evolution (maybe it depends on food, how much does he need?)
