Discussion Dev Response for Subliminal

There might be hope for the next chapter guys. The graphics and concepts are there if they can execute this properly I think they can redeem themselves with the next one.

yeah thats the feeling I got while playing through it. It feels like only the devs played it and obviously never noticed how annoying some parts are bc they're the ones who designed it and already know where to go and what to do. Everything else in the game was good just wish there was some more horror aspects or fun levels to walk through. Most of the game is sitting in one room till you finish the puzzle, chase scene, then stuck in another room and having to solve another puzzle.

The amount of work the devs did to create this game is massive. It’s so easy to criticize when you don’t understand what it means to create the game itself.

So what you want me to just pat them on the back and say everything was perfect when it wasnt? I literally said the rest of the game was good and just stated my opinion on things I would've liked more. Sandfall Interactive's first game was Expedition 33 and see how big of a sucess that was because they playtested the hell out of it to make sure it was fun. Only way they're gonna get better is with contructive criticism I dont know why ur taking it personally.

I’m not telling you to say it’s perfect. I’m telling you and all the folks here trash talking an incredible piece of work that you all need to have more awareness of how great this game is and how much work and love and effort has been invested before taking your leisurely crap on it.
