Judge feedback

Judge feedback is anonymous and shown in a random order.

  • The menus are quite complicated. The game is playable in browser and I do enjoy the UI options. I think the gameplay loop should have been refined and focused on instead of the rest of the options in the game. A play-along tutorial is super beneficial. More bite-sized reading to help string the readers along.
  • This is an idle game, minus the idle aspect. I appreciated the creativity behind the game, but found it challenging to stay engaged while waiting for the next tier to unlock. Overall, it has potential, but pacing improvements could make it more captivating.

 It felt a bit tiny to read on fullscreen, but the concept of a horror story driven clicker game is really cool! Nice work :)

Awesome game! I like the story telling aspect of it very much! I think that the progression timing is a bit fast right now, but it might just be becasue you made this for the gamejam. I feel that you haven't added everything you wanted as of this moment, it's looking amazing dude!

Feels like a really good game but I am not 100% into clicker games unless there is some fun to be had into it. 

Otherwise good work.
