PreDemo Feedback and our next step.
Hey everyone!
First of all, I want to extend a huge thank you to everyone who played our PreDemo.π
The median playtime stands at 2 hours and 20 minutes. Moreover, 70% of you took the time to complete the survey! Your feedback helps us identify the real issues with our game. Thank you so much! π
[h3]Now, let's start with some stats, just as we did with our Alpha.[/h3]
Additional Comments:
We believe Some issues related to limited content shouldn't be a problem in Early Access.
And when we said just 25%, we meant this! There's so much more to look forward to! ΛsteamhappyΛ
[h3]Anyways.. After a long discussion, here are things we can confirm.[/h3]
Thank you so much for playing our PreDemo and for all your feedback.π
We've read every comment and gathered enough feedback to move forward confidently. We hope you had a good time playing Northwind, and we aim to deliver an even better version of Northwind in the Public Demo and Early Access! So please look forward to it! π€π₯π₯

Additional Comments:
- Difficulty levels: The variety of feedback might stem from our game mechanic, where attacking also serves as defense, leading to a snowball effect.
- The most frequently mentioned issues relate to our Map and Event features. There are comments about the visuals and complaints that they are boring or repetitive.
- A lot of visual feedback is needed.
- A fast mode is needed.
- The tutorial could be improved; some information is still missing.
- There are a lot of calculations.
- Game performance should be optimized.
