Love the concept of your game. As others have mentioned the look is still very early on but I don't think it would take very long to get some nice looking asset into your game and make it look amazing! The mechanics of your game are very interesting and I am excited to see the finished product!
The concept of this game is great! As someone who took a class about this type of stuff not too long ago, this is very intriguing and accurate to plant identification. However, the current state of the game is a bit worrying. The assets clearly have a bit to go, and the UI needs the some more reworking. It's clear what the player has to do to receive a certain type of feedback, but it's difficult to read/understand any of the information given. The text boxes could be reworked, and the info on the pages themselves need to be bigger and more legible, but overall it flows together well. Excited to see this final product!
I really like the concept of the game, the idea is very fun.
I think in terms of execution, there's still a long way to go.
The fonts should be consistent throughout the game and it's very hard to read the handwritten font.
I think the visuals are really good!
Thank you for your feedback. Please keep cheering us on :)
As some people already mentioned some of the text systems need improvements(dialogue and journal reading). I think maybe you should try having the player be able to click on it and it will pop up like readable notes since the aesthetic of the messy journal is good. Also(might just be me) but clicking through the journal pages didn't seem intuitive like the buttons themselves didn't scream click me. Finally, maybe figure out a way for it not to be an info dump(I know that's kinda difficult for a game like this). Other than that I think you're off to a good start completing the game and I like the concept of the player checking the plant border permits.
I also like the messy journal aesthetic but the writing will be improved a bit 😅 I agree, thank you for your feedback; I'll be sure to make sure those changes are made o7 :)
The idea of the game is interesting, and I'm sure the visual will be good. So far, only the text gets out of the frame, and it would be nice to have a couple of sound effects and background music. Maybe even a minimal character voice acting (it would be fun). Good luck with the development!
Audio is already in the works ;) It just wasn't done in time, but look forward to it :)
The game is interesting! The handwriting was just a bit hard to read and some text ran off the text boxes. Making the quotes in the journal be bullet points instead would give more room to increase font size and readability. Good luck!
:) That is very helpful actually
