Heya, just wondering if you've watched it yet? Just so I know when to move onto the final hack!
Viewing post in I feel like I just woke up from a fever dream
Hey! Finally got around to playing it! This was really helpful to see, I'm glad you enjoyed it and it was especially nice to see someone familiar with Dweller's Empty Path and its various secrets see exactly what I was parodying! Thanks so much again for playing it. Your playthrough actually got more people to play it, which in turn got it a higher view rating on itch.io, so actually like 100 more people played this because you did this. It was a nice surprise for the week!
Yeah, so about the glitch you found. Yoki is supposed to block you from going upstairs after the chase scene finishes. But, I missed some check and it let you go back upstairs and entered a door, which reset chase mode when chase mode was not finished but also didn't let you end chase mode because it was already marked as finished. I really need to go back and fix that sometime and it's super helpful to see what led up to it.
Anyway, this was extremely useful. I'm considering doing some other fun game parody project sometime later this year and seeing this was helpful because it gives me a better idea of what jokes landed and what did not. It's really helpful to compare this with Neco's commentary in addition to the people commenting on your stream (I enjoyed the person who said I sounded like a dad trying to relate to kids, lol). Aside from that, the biggest takeaway I got from this was that I need to add more alt dialogue. It's nice to see someone explore anything and I'd really like to put more stuff out there for players like you. For future projects, I'll also try to put a non-fullscreen mode, that's a good point for streamers, and I'll be cognizant about having a more balanced volume and avoiding somewhat disturbing noises (people really hate that eating sound).
Thanks again so much! You had a good stream presence and once I turned the video on it flew on by. I apologize once again for the delay, I'm writing a book for work and this current chapter has just been a time sink. But, I am glad that I was finally able to go view it and it was a really fun experience. Once again, I sincerely appreciate it!
It was very fun! Again not sure if I'll stream the horse hack because I'll probably need to do a separate stream time slot with my current schedule, but seeing that my stream actually butterflied into boosting this hack for a bit is awesome and I'd love to help again!
Aaah so that's how that happened. Imma be honest this hack was really confusing in general and it was hard to get my bearings, even after playing it so I can't even recall how I got that glitch to happen lol. And honestly yeah, it just felt like the mansion wasn't fleshed out enough and given enough alt dialogue, plus with the glitch I was so confused. It was still really fun though, and cool to see how much you were branching out!
Pft I remember the person who said that about the dad and kids thing. Non fullscreen mode would be extremely appreciated thank you! Also yeah holy crap that eating noise was really gross. As someone with misophonia it wasn't a pleasant experience to be perfectly honest.
Also wow, didn't realize I was that likable on stream, so thanks for that! And good luck with your planned hack and your book!
