Reviews for "Boreal"

The game has potential, the character moves really slow, it's annoying. Keep the good work, something good could come out of this

Thank for the review! Notes taken!

I like the concept. But NG its not the new Steam early access. You published this as a full game, while its not even a pre-alpha. You could flesh this a lot more and then give it like some kind of demo to see if people want this to be worked on this more. But nope. This is JUST a concept demo. And you are publishing it. This is not acceptable in my book.

Alx101 responds:

I'm sorry? What made you think this was a published as a full game? Was it the short description where it says "(Concept)", or in the full description where it explicitly states that it's a concept and a work in progress? Or maybe in the end where it says "To be continued"? Or why not my news post about releasing the concept/demo levels of Boreal?

Okay, so thanks for explaining that this is a "concept demo" because i had absolutely no idea what the heck I was doing/ doing wrong. I kept playing over and over thinking there was something that I was missing. Its honestly a complete and utter tease.

That being said, the graphics are incredible. The way you chose to show the snowfall as crosshairs was a nice touch. Character does walk a bit slow, but no need to really rev him up TOO much.
The speed of it is kind of relevant with the atmosphere.

Really looking forward to the full game.

Alright! Thanks for your review! Notes taken!

Not bad. A little slow. A bit more atmosphere would help. I liked the puzzles. Lagged on my machine when lights and such turned on. I also liked the graphics.

Alx101 responds:

Gotcha, I'm taking notes!

I like the concept and it definitely has potential, but in its current state, it just isn't enough to get a high rating, maybe try to find some people willing to beta-test it for you as you get along and finish the full game before you publish it

Alx101 responds:

Thanks for your review! I guess I didn't point it out enough that this is a work in progress, and the reason I put it up is to get some input on what's fun and works and what doesn't.
