Dokimon Quest is LIVE : Time to go bug catching!
I can't believe it! The game is live :o
Dokimon : Quest is a game I started almost 3 years ago. I made it while making MonTamer Maker, my game engine for making monsters tamers gamers, and while studying fully time!
6 months ago, I graduated from my school and have been full time on Dokimon since. I made this game almost completely by myself. 100% of the programming, 100% of the character dialogue, cutscenes, NPC dialogue, etc. ALL of the marketing, (nearly) the entire English to Japanese localization, half of the music, a large portion of the art and the world, all of the UI / UIX, porting, controls, a disgusting amount of testing
With this said.. There's gonna be bugs, and there's gonna be some things lost in translation (lol).
The Japanese script is pretty rough at the moment due to font issues and converting kanji to kana (I'm really sorry ;-; ). But I think I can have it 90% of it resolved by Monday!
On the bright side of things, we've already had countless players giving us feedback, and testing the game for hundreds of hours. Several people have put 10-15 hours into their save without spending much time exploring or capturing!
There's been some rough patches though too. However, in the worst case scenario, the game has auto-saving enabled by default (you can turn it off too if you want). So if any nasty things happen, you should be able to pick up where you left off without much of a loss in your progress.
We're in a pretty good state, honestly. But I do feel the need to stress that the first few days, maybe even the first week could (possibly) be pretty rocky.
However, I will be updating the game constantly during the first month. My recommendation to players that want a completely smooth experience would be to pick up the game in the first week while the launch sale is still active, and then playing it after a few days of fire control have passed.
Once the game releases, we're not able to do another sale for a while after all.
If you find a bug, or some interesting wording or translation issues, please let me know in our discord. I will fix it as soon as humanly possible and uploads new builds with lots of patches and dialogue fixes each day.
Additionally, you can respond to this post with bugs, however I will see it several times quicker if you post it on discord.
