Feedback and bug report

[Lovecraft beer]

In case Pixelfade is reading discussions I wanted to post some feedback and report bugs that I found.

Just wanted to let you know that the game is very enjoyable so far.
Both voice acting and dialogue are great, even better than in you previous games.

As for the issues:

The animations and facial expressions are very stiff.

Some backgrounds are way too bright, like when you first see the ship.

In the first dialogue with Iris the text says “The quarters are just down the hall, but it repeats the previous voice line “That won’t be a problem, will it?” (Not sure if everyone playing will get this bug).

When you first encounter Vaela and choose the option “What are you doing in my room?” the voice line for “No, it’s not! Opening a door doesn’t mean a room belongs to you” doesn’t play.

When you first encounter Luna and choose the option “I’m suddenly feeling very hot” the voice line for “It’s called a thermometer. Much more accurate than a hand” doesn’t play.

Helen is described as having a ponytail, dark hair and brown eyes, but in the sprite she has a bob cut, lite brown hair and red eyes.
Not sure if it’s a placeholder or it was overlooked.
(If it’s the latter, maybe changing the description is easier than the design at this point?)

This is a nitpick, but when you have a sprite of a character in the bottom left of the screen, when you open the “log” or “save” or “load” and close it the sprite disappears.

Iris’s voice lines “Lets focus. We’re nearly there” when you pick “I don’t mind it” and “Focus on the mission. We’re almost there” when you pick “I like it fresh” don’t play.

When you choose Vaela’s route Kai’s voice line doesn’t match the text:
The voice line says “I’d have applied for this job along time ago”
The text says “I’d have applied for a job here too”

In the same route Vaela’s voice line “Most likely, so look for someone we can get away from their desk” doesn’t play.

These are some that I've noticed.
Keep up the hard work, we really appreciate you!

I got that repeat "That won't be a problem, will it" line. For some reason it was really noticeable. I noticed a few more line inconsistencies as well, but didn't make specific note of them.

Thank you!

Bug reports with line callouts are fantastic for helping chase these bugs down. So long as you can write the line in question down, I can zip to it with ease. By all means please do keep reporting and we'll keep squashing!

During Vaela's introduction in engineering, she says "Aw, he likes you already!" but the text only says "Aw, he likes you!"

In the gravity chamber, the text says "Want to grab food?" while Vaela's line is "Want to grab some food?"

Same scene... text says "I know what you're thinking! Truth be told, if I'd stayed on Corvus, my life would just be what my family planned out for me." The voiced line begins the second sentence with "But if I'd stayed home...".

Luna's scene with the citradelo... voice says "There wasn't much to leave behind" while text adds "...this time".

Mission briefing after you told your sister that your are a merc, just after the line from Iris saying she like the entousiasm. your sister pop saying that the doc is here and you restarted the story from here in a sort of loop

Yup, I have exactly the same problem

For the mission where you have to escape the prison w/ Vaela....

Choosing to sneak past the guards consistently results in the game freezing as soon as you board your ship. The only option to advance is to shoot the fuel can.

For the opening of the simulation room when you meet Vaela the text says "To my surprise, the room is still occupied. Valerie carries an armful of wires and equipment and unloads them into a small storage closet." I wasn't sure if this was a typo or a nod back to Ace Academy.

Also found a voice line that doesn't match up to text for Kai.
Line: "Of course! I've had her latest single, Neon Dreams, stuck in my head since I first heard it."
Voice: "Of course! I've had her latest single, Pop Idol Song, stuck in my head since I first heard it."

The description of Jonas Jones doesn't match his picture (he is described as having thick glasses and an even thicker beard). His beard is...small, very small. More of a covering on his chin than a beard, in my opinion.

Close to the end of the iris route you get to choose what career she picks (i think?) but it does not advance when you pick military it just freezes
