Hero or Villain: Genesis (feedback thread)

Sorry for the lack of replies for a while, just got back to Jakarta and new to deal with a lot of accumulated work. Hopefully next week I will return to the game and address some of the latest comments (thanks for those!)

So what were some of the new professions you were thinking and the stats that would go with them ?

Sorry for the lack of progress on the game, I started a new job yesterday, so basically Iā€™m not having as much free time as I would want. But, hopefully I might be able to start working on this again towards the end of the week.

Regarding new professions, I havenā€™t thought so much about it yet. The only thing is that they should be office based, as otherwise they wouldnā€™t fit in well with the story (somehow there needs to be a boss shouting at you, etc). If you can think of any other office-based jobs you would like to have in there, let me know!

You donā€™t really have an angry boss yelling at you. The job is also in a hospital with live patients and not an office so i do not think how much that could work, but it can send the ā€˜first aidā€™ stat sky high :grin:

How about an economist? :thinking:

Actually a doctor has to fill out reports as well

It says that I allowed then to get away with the stone even though I absorbed it :.

Amazing game btw and can we choose other superpowers later on or only at the beginning? because I didnt spend all my HP, should I regret that?

Sorry again for the long silence, this new job and a backlog of work have prevented me from making any progress (hopefully next week, though I keep saying thisā€¦)

@Nadin2011, yes you should have spent all the hero points, I better make a note about this in the game.

Ok so I have up completely working on the first half of the story before going on holidays. But, while on holidays Iā€™ll be writing the second half of the story. Hopefully this means that Iā€™ll be able to make good progress in may, after I return.

So, new update is up! In this update:

-Most of the professions now have a second option to choose from (as in, you can now be a civil engineer, aerospace engineer, etcā€¦)
-Some extra options in the dock side mission (thanks @Jacic!)
-New side mission (second patrolling streets side mission, introducing a new potential adversary, or maybe side kick?)

Otherwise while on holidays I continued writing the next part of the story, though I havenā€™t coded any of it yet. Hoping to finish working on all the issues I listed in post #300, and any other comments made from that post (sorry if I didnā€™t address them yet, need to balance addressing comments with writing new parts of the gameā€¦)

When you try to control the villainā€™s mind at the party it says ā€œyou canā€™t reach their Windā€ mind was misspelled

Also love the update!

Thanks, will correct in my next update (well, whenever I go through all the comments from threat 300). Today I was re-working the ending scene, which now includes answering a couple of questions from a journalist as you leave the scene, and an improved dialogue with the ginger woman. Iā€™m hoping to start moving the story forward in the next couple of weeks, though I am still aware that I need to address many comments in the first half, and that the Tidal Bore side story still needs work.

Out of curiosity, of the potential three side-kicks introduced, who do you like best?

  • I prefer Black Cockroach
  • I prefer Tidal Bore
  • I prefer Shark Man
  • Donā€™t like at all Black Cockroach, always defeated him and sent him to jail
  • Donā€™t like at all Shark Man, fought him
