Comment on [Opinion] Why do so many cozy games suck?
Paradachshund@lemmy.today 2 months ago
Well, I’m making one so i guess i can’t say they suck. I do feel like a lot of them aren’t great games, though. As in, they create a good vibe but they often lack solid gameplay. I think the writing in some I’ve played leans far too much into awkward and insecure characterizations too, and that gets tiring for me quickly. I’m trying to avoid those pitfalls in mine.

Any link/info on your game? I’m down for a cozy game with a bit more core gameplay

Hopefully it involves parachuting dogs

It doesn’t, but it does have a pig-based sliding puzzle. 🐖 i posted the demo on the comment you replied to if you’re curious.

Thanks for the interest! I only have a short demo and trailer up so far but would love to hear what you think. 😄

That looks really cool. It will help me live out my fantasy of having a handful of ants in my pocket that I can deploy at any moment.

Thanks for the kind words. Means a lot for an unknown solo dev like myself. 🙏
