Hey hey ! I apparently didn't gave my opinion on this game, so... It was GREAT ! Both routes, and I tried both Castor and Castoria (Castor's voice reminds me of Byakuya Togami or Nagito Komaeda from Danganronpa ehe), the voice actors are great ! Loved them ! Also, ManlyBadassHero just played your game apparently, congrats ^^
Edit : as a Monika stan, from DDLC, I downloaded the After Monika mod recently, and she reminds me a lot of Castoria. Tho I'd say Castoria might even be cuter ^w^
I'm glad you enjoyed it :3 I really need to go back and fix my messy code because this was the first thing I made in Unity, and I think if you're not using a scroll wheel to advance the text, there are likely a lot of unnecessary mouse clicks in this because I was a noob when I made it >.< haha.
Yeah, the voice actors certainly did an amazing job with the character! I'm hoping that by the time I finish writing Castor/ia's next episode, I'll actually be able to afford to pay them for their work because I feel awful that they volunteered their time and talent and I'm too poor to give them something back :(
I still haven't played DDLC x3 I really should someday! The only thing that's put me off for all this time is that it's all girls and not dudes xD Give me DDLC with dudes and I'll be straight in there, haha.
Hehe, I'm glad I enjoyed it too X3
I don't think so ! I only used the scroll wheel to scroll back when I clicked on accident and skipped text TwT, I don't think it was that bad !
Ah yeah... I have that problem too, kinda, with the game I'm creating rn, cause a friend of mine is creating the musics and some of the sprites, but since we're both like 15 it's no big deal for them... Still I feel bad asking him all that stuff while I'm making so little advance on the coding in itself TwT
You really should ! I'm not just saying that cause it's a game that marked me almost as much as Undertale, but also cause it's a great experience in itself and could inspire you with your games since there's some similarities ^^
Tho it's your choice haha, I'm sorry for being so insistant ! I really tend to do that with things I love (I'm still yelling on my friends telling them they really should play Omori TwT)
Lmfao, as a bi/pan????? disaster I usually love games when you have the choice to choose between male and female characters (or non-binary pals but gosh it's sooooo rare), so it doesn't bother me at all ^^ But really, DDLC is way more than a romance game, so it's a great experience even if you don't like girls :)
(I should stop rambling on DDLC and LGBT X') )
Hmm, maybe it's not as bad as I thought then. I will still look into it though cos if there are any in there, it will be really frustrating for players who can't use a scroll wheel like if they're on a laptop or something >.<
That's pretty darn awesome that you're both working on creating a game at such a young age though! Try not to worry about how long it's taking because if you stick at it, it'll all come together in time :3 I'm nearly 30 myself xD But because of my poor mental health, I'm not employed very often since companies here tend not to be very understanding of people suffering with mental health problems >.< They're not supposed to discriminate, but as soon as they find out you have autism, I'm pretty sure they just throw your CV away :( If I had a job with regular income, I could put the money towards game development, but because I don't, I'm completely reliant on donations to try and pay anyone who is helping me out. So far, everyone has been kind enough to volunteer their skills, but that can't continue forever cos it's just not right when they deserve to be paid.
I will get round to DDLC one day, haha. I kinda have a horrendously huge backlog of VNs, let alone other video games xD I want to start playing some, but my brain screams at me to keep working on things instead >.< I've actually managed to avoid a lot of DDLC spoilers over the years since I figured I'd play it someday, haha. I've heard some of the stuff that happens without full spoilers. I just feel like maybe it would lose its impact on me because I'm not likely to really care about the characters very much with them being cute girls x3 but ya never know! Actually, Undertale is another game I've never gotten around to trying (I'm terrible, I know xD)
But yeah, I don't mind you being insistent :3 It's nice that you're so passionate about em!
Well, I really want to try and be as inclusive as possible with my games :3 Sometimes it's kinda hard cos of the extra work that's required in adding different options, and when it comes to the art for player characters, I don't really have the option of including like multiple skin tones and stuff since I can't draw to save my life and have to rely on stock sprites or purchased generators >.< I wanted to just try and keep DD as gender-neutral where we never see the player character and have everything in first-person + the choice of sprites and voices for each character to give the player more of an option of what they wanna hear/see. But then I also realised that writing certain scenes in a gender-neutral way is quite difficult, haha. My own sexuality still confuses me though xD I think I'm ace/demi!
Feel free to ramble as much as you like :D I do a hell of a lot of rambling myself, haha.
