when this will be out on steam?
as soon as the page is setup I will put it up for wishlists, I feel like it can take nearly a month. Currently my account is under review, hopefully it's reviewed so I can finally make the page. And for the people who are buying the game here, I will email everyone the free key for steam as they have already paid for the game once.
okay, can't wait for that!
Im curious. How long did you make this?
It took me a year and a half as I was learning the 3D enviornment (first 3d project) but hopefully it won't take that long for next games as I am experienced now.
thanks for answering my question.
do u think this will be able to come on steam?
Hey! Yes that's the plan. I'm collecting the funds for steam page only! I want to give steam keys to players who bought the game here so they don't have to buy it again on steam.
oh ok bc im tryna get it on steam since i have steam credits on there and i dont rlly have money for itch lol
Hey! The game is really great. you know the song you used in the beginning for the car ride? it sounded so good, are you able to put it on spotify?
Heyyy, I made that song using SUNO AI, I'll check if I can add it on Spotify or YT music and will update you on that. Thank you for playing the game and I'm glad that you enjoyed it!!!
could you please set the price at 1$, that's all that i have on my card, literally 1$, would really like to play it'!! :(((
I won't earn anything at 1 dollar, literally. Please email me though so I can send you the game key.
found your game through caseoh, but i stopped his video at the 14 min mark to buy the game and try it out for myself. i havent started playing yet but i already look forward to future projects!
this genuinely made my day!! I can see that u made an account just for this. Thank you so much Lin and yess next projects will be better than this!
don't love that you used ai but otherwise good game!
yes totally understandable! I didn't wann use AI either but I did not have the budget to get it all done. In next projects I have different plans and hopefully I will have budget to implement them by then! Thank you for giving ur opinion means alot to me
