I shall not rate this since I do not know how to play that minigame, and I feel a rating would be unfair :'(

I really like a lore though and voice acting is ALWAYS a plus.

The narrator is a bit too loud, a volume bar would be appreciated.

I am sorry you didnt have time to finish core gameplay! look like it has so much potential, I was creating way simpler project and almsot didnt finish so i cant imagine how hard it was for you!

I like the art style and story. I really found the “Yeah its affordable” funny. I unfortunately have no idea how to play Go and was very confused once I got to the game board.

The art style is really cool. I like the concept. Unfortunately I couldn't figure out how the go board works. Is the machine supposed to set stones too?

Developer

Currently, only stone placing and capturing is functional. The art style was a lot of fun!

Hey, I loved thoe opening of the game but got stuck at the go section where the game weas not progressing even though both players passed. Also, there is a bug where you can place stones outside the board.

Developer

We fixed the bug and ended an epilogue! Thanks for letting us know.

Unfortunately, I don’t know how to play Go, and I also don’t understand whether I’m supposed to play and win as White or as Black. Maybe you could add more guidance on the itch page about what the player is supposed to do?

I really want to love this game, because the art looks so good. But I have no idea how to progress through the Go section of the game at the very beginning. I’ve never played Go, and I can’t work out the goal of the game. I don’t know if there’s something else I’m mean to be doing apart from playing the Go game or what’s going on.

It’s not fair to judge on what I’ve seen so far, because I don’t think I’ve seen it all. Please let me know what I’m missing, because I genuinely would love to see more and check out more of the hard work your team has put into this from what I can see in the images on the Itch page.

Unfortunately, the battle mechanics (and thus tutorial) aren't done. Go is an amazing game though. If you're intrested in learning how to play it, online-go.com is what I play on.
