To Rubeki, Hi Rube, love the game, is there any way you could please add additional accessibility options to make it easier, for example in NaissanceE you can bring up the console and activate FLOAT, that way you have the option to float across the sections that are impossible. And could you add 'unlimited manual saves' that way we can practice an impossible jump exactly from the ledge where we failed AND also to experiment different paths or come back to them later on. How about a Wing Suit like Just Cause 3 so we can explore the far ends of the world, and how about a Grappling Hook like you see in Dying Light. Thank You Very Much and Happy Halloween. Sammy =)
Curious if the demo is more forgiving in terms of respawn points. I never had problems respawning in the demo…I always respawned to the closest safe area. In the main game, I’m set back sometimes by a few minutes. Not a big fan of that since I have to repeat the same things again.
First that first, I wish several happiness with your new baby ( I read your post in the Lorn's Lure: Danny's song) and I really appreciated this third demo. The first I like more, the second I thought was little bit unfair ( a great wall without bars and nor scafoldings) I really not found there the pickaxes, so I fall stagnated on massive tip of pipe . This one I liked but I saw you was making to Steam through the hints drawing at the paths. The rookies don't used to (no offenses) across the road without grip their mommies' hands. So I can understand it. I was little bit nervous with that arrows and full hints. But okay the new generation is in commerce command. I am too old I assume (44). Then I am from other generation, I like read manuals and explore trying many paths and tatics. But I appreciated this version. Those one when the owl change in a demon or monster or whatmacalit was VERY nice. That time I fell in a trick. hahahahah Video. Sorry about my bad english.
The application “DemoV3Mac” can’t be opened. (If it is un-identify developer or not broken it will pop up "Un identified developer" but this indicate glitched file)
This demo is supa dopeness. So fricken chill. Exploration and running around feels alive and tactile.
These were some of my moments of friction with how movement works. Please ignore these musings :) Especially things being so closes to beta and such. Just thought it might be fun to share.
I found the way the camera snaps to a different angle when switching walls to be quite disorienting. Maybe as a menu option?
Same with the camera while holding onto the wall and looking backwards, not being able to do full 360 felt a little off. Clamping it at a smaller angle than 90 degrees to the wall might be better, mayhapes? But, full 360 would feel nice me thinks.
Why does letting go of the wall take the same amount of stamina as jumping off a wall. I could see how grabbing onto a wall while falling could use a lot of stamina, but not just doping down from the wall.
Sometimes its hard to tell if I'm going to be jumping off a wall or dropping down from the wall.
Initially i thought the distance indicator told you how far down or above something is from you. Hmm, maxes out at 10m. Maybe it would give you a "^" symbol with the number 4, meaning the point I'm looking at on the wall is 4m above me. Vise versa with a "v" symbol. Maybe two numbers? One for height above and bellow, and one for distance? Nah to complex. The distance number would probably be more useful if it didn't max out at 10m. It would make reading if a large wall is traversable a whole lot easier; both vertically and horizontally. Eh, you know what, whatever, mussel memory will probably be more useful than some number.
Re-spawning is a tad annoying. Because it felt like i had no control over where it would set me back to. Maybe a way to set the restart points myself. I'm a big fan of viewfinders rewind system. I wonder how connected the idea of simulations is to the world's lore.
(Now this is were i totally just start going off on my own.)
Dying from falling feels a bit off. I feel disconnected from this black screen that says "try again". Or if not even dying maybe a leg breaks when you hit the ground and you topple over, you can't walk. Same with trying to grab onto a wall while falling fast, your arm could break off and you go spinning down, you can't climb walls. Your head hits the ground the simulation ends. These are physical consequences for falling, not just some kind of game mechanic if you know what i mean.
Anyways, just some things I was thinking about while playing. I had so much fun climbing around the demo. I'm so excited to explore this ancient world. Its so friken dope. >:D
Just played the demo and I loved it so far, climbing the walls is satisfying and I especially enjoyed figuring out a route + the slower paced exploration around the megastructure. Having a button to hide UI was also a nice addition.
The only few issues I had with the demo didn't impact the gameplay, so they are a bit nitpicky lol, firstly I didn't like how the tutorial popups interrupt the player as it breaks the flow, since I usually get stopped as I'm trying to move. I also had an issue with the game audio turning off when accessing the settings menu (the sound design is amazing though), but since it's only the demo this might be outdated.
Overall I still enjoyed the game, definitely going to wishlish it on steam as I've been looking for more megastructure and exploration games like this :^)

Very cool demo. Will buy the game if I ever have money.

[Spoiler] This is pretty much harder than I supposed. But it was worth each cents paid.

I really want to play your game, maybe I'll try it at school

tsutomu nihei would love this....
I love it!
This is a truly great game so far.
Please for the love of god, keep making games
A slightly eerie but exciting giant structure filled with the unknown.
And it was very exciting to hear the fragmented story of how they challenged it or were left behind!
The simulation challenge was completed at a later date, meow!

I'm happy to say that I got rid of the tutorial popups :)
The audio thing might be a bug? I haven't experienced it or heard it from anyone, but I'll keep an eye out for it.
Thanks for the feedback!
