I'll admit, in our itch reviews, we do get a lot of reviews saying the game was good, or without any explanation of what they liked or in some cases we've gotten a couple 1-stars with 0 explanation on why we received those 1-star reviews. Was it the art? The genre? The story-pacing itself? I'll never know and will just have to take that rating hit as it is

That said, I don't expect novels of responses from everyone, because that in itself is a wholly unrealistic expectation. People who want to support the game will either leave 5* ratings, or comments on our page, our support us on Patreon, or they won't. I work on this project expecting nothing in return, but hope for good feedback so that I can improve myself, as well as produce the best product for the audience that keeps coming back for it.

All of that being said, that doesn't mean we haven't gotten good feedback. We have, I already have standing notes of things we need to work on moving forward, some of them are more pressing, and some take time to change, but we're doing what we can.

EDIT: I realize you were referring to our comment section, to be honest I've never actually taken the time to actually analyze how much constructive feedback we've received in the comment section specifically. I'm sure if I dig back though I'd find a few good nuggets which is all I can really ask for.

That's a good mentality to have as a game developer or a developer in general. You can't let negative criticism bring you down because that's what it is, criticism. Unless something crazy happens in the future that is totally unexpected, I think you've got a good future in making stuff on this site.  But also keep in mind I have no idea what is happening behind the scenes so I wouldn't know of any other struggles you're having. That being said good luck. Sorry if this sounded cringy.
