Though graphics are quite simple, they do their job, although some of the icons (palette resizing, for example) could be improved.
Movement is quite smooth (sometimes, too smooth), but works perfectly.
I think the main problem with the game is the lack of music on the Main Menu and during the game, apart from the background sounds. You can find free music and Fx sounds for free on many sites.
The game cannot even be considered a pre-alpha, let alone a demo. No sound, inadequate placeholders, "Info" and "Seetings" (Not Settings) options on the menu don't work, wrong instructions on the screen (Indicates "cursors", but it is played with AWSD and spacebar.
This development of yours needs a lot of work to be considered as a demo of something. Sorry.
Thanks for your roast. I appreciate that.
About the engine I used, it's "Adventure Game Studio" (A.G.S.) (Link https://www.adventuregamestudio.co.uk/ ).
In fact, other people have commented me the same, especially people who it is not accustomed to the AGS interfaces (Close to interfaces used by Sierra On-Line and Lucasfilm Games on their graphic adventures). But I admit I simplified it too much the interface, considering that the background objects have no visual clue that the player can interact with them, and I didn't notice to the player that he/she could interact with other elements of the screen, apart from the marked points. My mistake.
That is a lesson learned to apply on my next game, a tutorial, or notice to the players they can do such things.
Thanks again for your roast.
Thanks for your comment!!! I appreciate it!!!
About the game, it is mainly based on a conversational game (you had to write the commands, instead of the current click-and-play system) but using the A.G.S. graphic adventure system. In fact, it is a kind of remake, keeping the graphics (from an Amstrad CPC 464 (64k), in which, the game was loaded from a cassette!), keeping mainly the original story but adding some details, as far as the original game could be too short with the AGS interface.
I agree about the needing for a tutorial section. Though the AGS interface is quite intuitive, It is necessary. People commented the same about my other click-and-play game, "Outbreak: The warehouse". In my new click-and-play project, I have already in mind adding a small tutorial about the interface and game mechanics.
