Those are very kind words, thank you! Always makes me happy to hear people enjoying the game, especially as an amateur indie dev with no artistic talents, it's been an uphill battle to try to make it look and play well haha.
I write using a mix of typing and Speech to Text to try to save my hands, so there are definitely gonna be more errors than if I hand-typed everything. I'm always open to typo reports!
Haha, I have no experience of writing novels myself but I can imagine the toll it must take on a prodigious wordsmith such as yourself.
I played a little bit more today and I must say that the sheer depth of thought of your characters has left no small impression on me. I know a lot of people, myself partly included, come to these types of games to find something they can't in everyday life, but this one has given me something I can take back and improve it with. Those are the best kinds of stories, aren't they?
If I didn't already say it, thank you for creating this game.
Yeah... the game is about 330k words right now, which is about 5-7 novels in length, written in a bit under two years. Doing that by hand would have killed me.
I definitely think the characters are the main draw of the game. I just love trying to write people, or rather letting them write themselves. Always makes me happy to hear people are really enjoying them, or the questions raised.
I don't like writing as a way to moralize, but asking questions and leaving them unanswered, trying to make the reader consider it too, is really fun and fulfilling. Dune had that effect on me a while back!
But yeah, glad you enjoyed, and thank you once again for the kind words and enthusiasim~
