Nothing wrong with the website but gameplay looks a bit… well… lacking. From design perspective.

At this point I would not recomend showing it. It should be more like a pitch and less “just playing a placeholder level”. For example you could show players what they can do in game in short clips with text and hint at a presence of someting actually threatening in the level.

Also lowest level mobs should go down with one hit and be more of a threat if they reach player.

But hey! I’m not the one designing your game. whistling nervously and avoiding eye contact

Edit: grammar error

Thank you so much for feedback - game is far, far, far from complete. We estimate it at about 15% right now. So no doubt that it is lacking at the moment! Thank you for noticing.

Ah, don’t misunderstand. I have no problem with the game lacking, just the video showing it. :wink:

Hi there!

I’m not a native english person myself, but I think I spotted some grammar issues on your website. I guess you should ask someone to proofread before your campagin.

I’d also agree with Marfab that you might need a new video. I watched the video before reading your texts and felt that it’s far from ready for a kickstarter.

But if you can deliver a nice video including more details about who you are, where you want to go with your game and why your project deserves backing, maybe then.

Anyways, good luck guys!

Definitely. We are taking our time to show better gameplay and moments.

Definitely recommend, just in the first paragraph there are a whole bunch of errors and really poorly worded sentences. This website graphically looks nice, but the wording needs some fixing.

Here is just a little example:
You page title:
“Welcome to HordeBoss Universe”
Should be something like: “Welcome to the Hordeboss Universe” / “Welcome to the Horde Boss Universe”

You first intro line:
Hordeboss” is a Hack and Slash Action RPG Platformer based in the Fantasy 2D world about orcs trying to regain power within the horde and outside enemies.”
No idea what you mean by “outside enemies.” Also it sounds quite bland. Perhaps something like this:
“Hordeboss is a 2D Hack and Slash Platforming Action RPG based in a world filled with Orcs vying for power. Compete with horde-mates to rise to the top while also fighting foes of the horde.”

I’m no expert on English (only a native speaker), but I can assure you that you will want someone to handle your English translations, as the language is a mess to write well in.

The game has some interesting concepts, and the art looks quite good! Reminds me of a fantasy version of the Zombieville USA series. If you haven’t played those I would definitely recommend trying them out, you might see something cool in it.

Also having a port to mobile would be great for this game! :slight_smile:

Looking forward to seeing where this goes, best of luck!

just some random comments,

  • nice art/design
  • clicked video play button, but no autoplay in that youtube player (need to click play again)
  • tried to click greenlight link, but image share popups there (on all images it seems)
  • to join mailing list, name is not really useful info (at least can make it optional if want to keep the field)
