EternalAngel Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 I got to about day 35 in the span of maybe 4 hours. At which time I started to have nothing but Carbon Dioxide. This game is pretty fun, especially if you want to zone out but feel like you are still doing something for hours. Great idea, fun graphics and effects, entertaining concepts on a number of things. I eventually got hung up because the piping system was a bit... Interesting, though after screwing with it for a bit it started to make sense. It could use quite a bit more info about certain things to help cut down some of the confusion, but I digress because I had made it a bit late to try and filter the air XD. Personally, I think this game will do pretty well for the people into its type. I do wish that bio mass and algae were a bit easier to come by, and I also wish there was a bit more instruction on how to do certain things... But, hey, what can you do with a brand new game just starting to get on its feet? I actually look forward to seeing what more you can do with this in the future. I will probably post this next bit in any of the ideas sections of the forum, but hey, why not mention them everywhere? -In terms of some ideas to help smooth things out, make it so the player can control certain tasks for specific characters. It was getting pretty annoying watching my top researcher go and power the generator next to the super computer while the character with 0 intelligence took it over... This caused a hell of a delay in researching things I needed, thus leading to many dead. -Set up a better instruction or tutorial system for things like piping and wires, maybe add red text to terrain that will be destroyed by each, and have something like the wire splitter for pipes, because I personally could have built a pipe network if they didn't all auto connect to each other. This will also help for setting up a few "check points" to put in a filtration system, to help make sure you continue to have water. I eventually ran out of water myself and was only surrounded by contaminated sources. -Have a tool tip, or red text, on dead bodies to show that they can be buried in the grave stone deco. It took me quite a while to finally find and realize the 4 dead bodies I had lying around spawning contaminated air and diseased mobs could have been taken care of if I had built those sooner. Eventually I just set up a sort of graveyard a few layers below where everything else was as a "just in case" protocol to dispose of bodies. -Add in more food sources. This is probably already being worked on, but a few things I could "harvest" lead to nothing being gained. Maybe add in "alien meat" or something from the various creatures you might kill along your way. You can make a thing that resembles a grill, where's the meat?! -Possibly add in gear for the characters. I noticed that some could be holding something, and I am unsure if this refers to materials or not. But being able to make something like an air suit, or a diving suit, or any of the variation, would have helped in a number of situations. Maybe just have a side research thing for character upgrades? I don't want to make this like the app Fallout Shelter, but being able to actually control how your characters grow and learn will add some extra diversity to the game (while also cutting down on the rage of "WHY ARE YOU DOING THAT?!"). -Make it so that, if a character is made, when a character has "Gastrophobia" and will not cook (or any other type of variation of the "will not" negative stat) they don't spawn with +5 cooking. It is really rather silly and a bit redundant when they have a fear of cooking, cannot build, cannot dig, etc but still have stats in said stat. Looking forward to seeing how this game turns out, it was a decent 4 hours spent so far on just a pre alpha!

TheKingDedede Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 @EternalAngel, welcome to the forums. I noticed that you have a good number of ideas here. Mind if I ask a moderator to move this to the Suggestions and Feedback subforum?

Zillvr Posted March 10, 2017 Share Posted March 10, 2017 @EternalAngel welcome to the forums. Sorry for the sudden move, but I think the devs would appreciate all suggestion posts be actually posted in the Suggestions and Feedback forum. I did a read up and just notice you posted another thread in this subforum with the same but shorter info. I'll just hide the shorter one since both have the same info. @TheKingDedede, I just happen to view the same thread just as you posted. Cheers.
