We're accepting new players and have a Lemmy community!English12·4 months agoEric from the community (and a bunch of others) have been making some videos on how to get started. One I’d recommend for beginners is the Ultimate Beginners Guide video.

Thank you so much! When we get the quest system into the game, giving some direction to the players will be much easier.

And actually yes, I’ve played most of the old school Avernum games :D I’m a huge fan of the original Fallout games, and Avernum kinda hit the same spot for me when I was a kid.

One other participant told that they did an A/B test on their players where if they wanted to quit the game, they’ll be shown a cute pet who’ll tell them that it’ll be very sad if the player leaves. A/B test prove that it boosted retention. Mobile games are quite dystopian really, and all of it these days tend to be data driven, not people designing actually good games or pieces of art like (which I consider games to be).

For the bonus question, I’d like to answer that although more of a running game, “Zombies, Run!” has probably been the best that I’ve played. I played it when it came out years ago, and it helped me to pick up running. But I really don’t like Niantic-style GPS based games myself, which is what made me start this project. Also, all of those tend to have very predatory monetization too, which I really don’t like.
This is device dependent bug, so we missed it. Seems to happen on Nothing Phones and maybe some others. We will be fixing it soon!
