Frightening Tarr
Posted: Thu Aug 10, 2017 6:36 amJust FYI:
Your game is obviously super fun & awesome. My girlfriend and I both really like it, and our four-year-old really, really likes it, except... when she sees a Tarr, she becomes rather terrified and immediately asks to play something else. This feeling does not wear off; she's clearly dreading a Tarr's return.
I feel like if you even had just an option in the preferences, or at the game start ("Easy" vs "Hard"? "Little Adventurers" vs "Grown Adventurers"?), to have something less ghoulish-faced in place of the Tarr, that would do the trick. I think the game dynamic would work the same with something else that ate slimes just the same, but without being so monstrous in appearance. Perhaps a creature whose face evoked pure insane (goofy but still obnoxious) hunger alone, and not the more ravenous evil devouring that the present Tarr appearance does.
2ยข! / Thanks, keep up the good work!
