Here is a map of places visited so far.

I don't feel like I'm doing a good job of giving you all the quest you deserve and I'm feeling a bit defeated I'm not going to give up just yet though. I want to know how I'm doing in your eyes. What have I done wrong? What have I done right? What can I do to improve?

Thank you all for sticking with the story so far.

Keep the posting momentum going - the more attentive the audience, the more suggestions you'll get.

Maze quest's main problem is that the game mechanics are overly complicated at the moment. Giving us organization tools (like that map, very handy) is important to keep US from giving up due to headaches. Remember, we're not in your head, we don't always know your worldbuilding on instinct.

However, your story should be complicated. We want to see how creative you can get, so be sure to work on the plot in advance.

Updating more regularly could help encourage participation?

Also note there were a decent number of suggestions when shopping, so there is some interest. At the moment the fight we're in looks pretty straightforward so there's probably not gonna be much excitement about it. We're still kindof grinding for exp right now, aren't we?

I'm not sure making sure we have a map is necessarily the important thing (Maze Quest, after all, implies one of the challenges should be navigation).

It sort of feels too early in the quest to make meaningful constructive criticism, at least for me. Not enough data point, or distance to see how decisions or stylistic choices play out (which might be frustrating to hear since it's been months irl).

I did really like the bit where Morgan reached out and asked us to teach her how to play some of the games we were talking about.

>Overly complicated mechanics
Yeah, I may have gone a bit overboard with some of the mechanics. Ill try to simplify them where I can and keep things organized.


>More regular updates
Unfortunately, more regular updates are off the table at the moment. I am trying to fit more updates into the same time period, but with how long they can take to make, that isn't exactly providing astonishing results.

Thank you. Speaking of which, should the game take place on screen or off? (I know that so far we haven't had an "off screen", but we will eventually.)

So far the plot hasn't gone where I had initially expected, but I have a few things planned to keep it moving.

Thanks for all the feedback.

>Speaking of which, should the game take place on screen or off?
Doing (part of) the game onscreen could be fine, though you probably want to timeskip over the intro so we're not typing the rules to monopoly into our suggestions or what have you.

Here's an explaination for some of the formatting I have been using.

"words" is stuff that I am saying.
">" is stuff that you guys said.
"[]" is stuff that you (the Kinter) know.
"words" is a game message.
"[name]: "words"" is someone named "name" saying "words" in english.
"[name]: [words]" is someone named "name" saying "words" in some other language.
