I would like to note that I’m not familiar with hamlet story but I enjoyed the demo
First of all, as someone who didn’t read the novel, I would like to see more world-building
Hamlet confession
Summary
tbh it didn’t feel like anything at first, I would have considered it cringey since I didn’t explore more of him but I found it cute as I got to know him after I replayed several times since we interact more with him after he confesses. I loved that it wasn’t like just “I love you” ~and that’s it deal with it~ rather he was more passionate about it
Likes\Dislikes
Summary
-I didn’t like how the time skip felt kinda rushed if you would give us more time to get a better understanding of the story and the characters since we’re supposed to build relationships with them
-I didn’t like that the interactions were brief and that we didn’t get the choice to reply at some point so it felt like reading rather than playing and got me a Lil out of the story, I’m certainly not saying to get the choice to reply to every sentence the characters says, I wish we get more choices in act 2
-I like the way you write I’m not sure how to describe it but maybe catchy and pleasant?..! would do the job, and the spelling errors are very rare which keep me with the story(as someone who makes a lot of spelling errors)
-I liked that you gave us a brief introduction to each character so I kind of imagined their faces from their characters (For example a stoic butler expression for Reynaldo)
About the characters
Summary
-So far I liked Hamlet personality and attitude as I said I’m not familiar with the story but I think the way you portrayed Hamlet as a playful and honest person is great and matches the vibes I get from him. I’m sure we will get the chance to know the others more in act 2
-I wonder about our brother role in the story, but so far he seems to like us. he is one of the characters I’m curious about
-Is Reynaldo a Ro does he have a crush on Ophelia? his attitude gives me this feeling, I’m really curious about him? Why is he so hostile around us
Ophelia Gender and Characters appearances
Summary
I personally don’t mind that Ophelia’s gender-locked however, I would like to get descriptions like (eye colour \ hair length, color\height) and for it to be mentioned since it gives more depth to both the story and character identity. in the other hand, I don’t mind the other characters description being vague
More Feedback
Summary
-Can we get the option to share how we feel about the king death
-Can we pretend to share the same feelings with hamlet while attempting to use him Also, be able to not confirm our feelings nor deny it
-Can we get to know and interact with the people around us more? For example at the dining scene with our brother and father, you could open more room for a conversation and the way we choose to respond to them (with sarcasm, stoically, kindly) and the way Ophelia feel about having dinner with them if their relationship is chaotic
I fell more in control if given the chance to respond and interact or the way I want to act in certain scenes
Is this kind of feedback acceptable?is there any other kind of feedback you need?
Do you have a Tumblr for the game? or plan on setting one up
