I guess this didn't do too well
I was expecting good review scores, low numbers, that's pretty much what happened.

The tiny niche of people willing to give it a chance really did like the game, it looks extremely well animated, well done, but if you create a repulsive character, and use it as the cover, don't be surprised if the general public gets repulsed by it and never give it a chance.

This isn't about a culture war, it's just common sense.

The people trying to warn/help the devs got silenced and censored, and now this happened, this game could have done really, really well.

Right. Every female game character has to meet certain male criteria of bangability.

Sheesh, give me a break.

Dude she looks so good im loving the panty peeks, goods under the hood junk in the trunk and ready for a bumpy ride!

Also i think this design looks so cool and stylish like for example look at tekken 8 they play it safe with every womans and just made a evil asuka, their robot alisa looks exactly like all their other waifus, but then jack is a chumbawumba because hes a dude. I feel like Alisa should of look like Cherry to emphazise kick power like how chun li has big thighs but ya know its a robot so no need to play it safe go nuts function over form i say!

The trolls are hitting this game HARD for some reason.

In advance, I'm sorry.

What're you - genuinely - talking about? To be clear here, I'm not attempting to start an argument or anything negative.

According to you "every right winger in the world" wouldn't buy Cookie Cutter. Have I got that correct? If so, why on earth would you come to such a silly conclusion?

I have no idea where I stand on a political scale and I don't care to find out either, it doesn't serve me anything to know. What I do know is that I agree with every party on something (least that I'm aware of).

Now, if I took one of those "left" and "right" tests online and found myself to be heavy on the left side of the political scale that wouldn't stop someone (perhaps yourself) telling me I'm a right wing because I understood a right wing point of view on a singular topic and had a question. The flip side also works. People claim other people are this that and the next thing all the time, you literally did it yourself:

That last bit:

I find your text to have the exact same sentiment. You're seemingly branding someone something presumably without knowing anything about them other than they don't like the appearance of a fictional character and even at that, you have to take that at face value and not as online bait.

Sorry - again - for all the text. I just read your comment and thought it was wild.

Oh yeah before I forget >>> I'm really interested in getting Cookie Cutter (holding off coz someone might gift me it as a present) and taking the example above, if someone did brand me a "rightwinger" or if I did take a "left or right" test and it stated I'm rightwing, that wouldn't sway me from being interested in Cookie Cutter and buying it for myself (as above if I don't get it as a gift).

Not calling anyone right wing for not liking CC.

Bringing judgement on something without actual first hand experience is what right wingers do, like calling certain schoolbooks they never actually read themselves obscene to children.

I'm not going to declare that certain wargames unambiguosly suck if I never actually played any of them.

Saying CC certifiably sucks and giving lectures on how to improve its sale without never trying it yourself at all is pretentious and trolling.

Yeah I never stated you were. I'm addressing that you're drawing a needless link and making a baseless assumption about people who'd identify as right wing.

If that's what you think, that's what you think. I find it a rather silly thing to do: painting a HUGE amount of people with the same brush.

Ok.

That's not what's happening here but if that's how you've interpreted this thread, you do you.

The design of the character isn't what killed it for me.

It's the lack of accessibility / difficulty options. I realize the developer can do whatever he pleases but he doesn't listen.

Yes, this is an indie game but when you have Persona, God Of War, Darksiders, The Last Of Us with MANY OPTIONS, you are limiting your fan base.

It's almost as if the Dev team that made this is 0.01% the size of literally any of the games you listed.

Accessibility options (I'm not even sure what you require from a 2D platformer, honestly) are a good thing, but comparing Cookie Cutter to God Of War and Persona is just silly.

Yeah. If it wasn't for that stuff I'd get this game.

I put around 11 hours into the game and unlocked half of the weapons/abilities and probably explored half of the map areas. I love Metroidvania games, but the reason I stopped playing this one the first time was the brutal difficulty right off the bat, and the reason I stopped playing it after the new update was also the brutal difficulty.

I made it a lot further into the game this time, but it feels unbalanced. I don't mind hard games but I expect fairness. The game puts you in rooms with so many enemies you literally can't see your own character, which means you can't see when you're about to get attacked to either avoid it or mitigate it. Cherry literally disappears into the enemies piling on top of her. Button inputs seem to get lost and it's very easy to get stunlocked to death even by weak enemies.

I *love* the tone of the game, the animation is incredible and it's clear a lot of care went into designing this world and the characters but it's a shame the same amount of care didn't go into designing the combat encounters in the mid to late game.

I don't regret buying it, but it would be nice if I could finish it someday. For now though it's not worth the aggravation of continuing to try.
