Havent seen text games in a while. I.. kinda liked it alot. interesting universe, even if i was exposed to it for 5 minutes. Is it from the book or something?
I liked that there is mood syste, but i never encountered any influence from it?
Very cool.
Thank you for checking it out and for the kind comment!
The worldbuilding is original - It started off with a premise of having a limited number of "occupations" and then figuring out what they'd mean in the context of the world, building on from there. Some things like the Hidden Truth (an event that's rarely unlocked with the right random equipment / events coming together and explains an aspect of the world) do take inspiration from other media.
If your mood is too low people will begin to leave which might create issues with the delicate balance of food or cause a GAME OVER, and low mood can also affect the "final encounter" negatively. I might add future events or choices which make the mood even more relevant... maybe!
definitely flesh it out via book and design documents. and visaully, aswell. I got Flesh pit vibes https://www.mysteryfleshpitnationalpark.com/ . Definitely improve upon this concept. it is worth it in long run.
I love mystery flesh pit so this is an awesome comment to get ((: another pit-based setting, even if it's very different haha
Would be fun to expand the worldbuilding (many aspects of the setting that haven't been explored enough in-game) and maybe make some visuals for it, though not sure if they'd be canonical - player's imagination has to come first.
