I just gave the game a try,
Iām really excited to see where you take this project as I donāt know a lot of open-world weight gain/expansion games that donāt use RPG maker. Keep up the excellent work!
Hello! First, how do you do that Himiko event? and is there a way to progress time so fullness decreases?
Secondly, I just wanted to give a thought/complaint. Simply put, this game is surprisingly intensive on my computer. And for what itās worth it doesnāt need to be. The lighting is often TOO bright, and the motion blur makes me a little dizzy
The UI is kinda broken and really hard to navigate on non 16:9 screens. Iāve got a 16:10 screen and the UI is constantly off screen making it difficult to interact with
What resolution are you playing at? I can use it to help resize stuff to work better with other resolutions.
The Himiko event got turned into the shop event. I forgot how terrible I am at writing, so I decided to focus on other content first, sorry.
Currently theres no way to pass time, but Iāll add a way to next update, whether itās just a button or interacting with a bench or a bed.
As for performance, I know itās a rough at the moment. Iām trying to optimize it as best as I can, but I think I forgot to disable a camera or two, which makes the game run a lot worse.
Iām disabling motion blur for next update and will put an option in the settings to change it. I meant to disable it in the first place but completely forgot.
Iāll do my best to tone down the lighting without making it look weird.
Thank you for the feedback
I use 2560x1600. On another display I might use 1600x1200
Cool thanks. Iāll get that fixed
