[DEMO] Welcome, Feedback & Bugs report
Hello Cleaning Staff!
Welcome to the first playable demo of Goblin Cleanup . In this demo, you'll find a small showcase of mechanics within a an easy level (can be completed in about 15-30 minutes) and a slightly more complicated level (40-60 minutes), where you can play alone or with up to 3 more people. [Note] What is shown in the demo is not the final representation of the game, and any mechanics may be subject to changes based on community feedback.

For the final version, we plan to add more interesting restoration mechanics, dangers, and overall polish, such as:
  • Respawning of monsters.
  • More restore-type traps.
  • Restocking looting chest.
  • Mana-restoring type elements.
  • In predefined levels: Online Leaderboard with completion times.
  • Skins: Cosmetics for the goblin, mop, slime, mimick and more. As well as the male version of the goblin.
  • Workshop: for players to create their dungeons and let others complete them.



As your opinion matters to us, we would like to know a few things:

What do you like?
What don't you like?
Do you prefer levels more similar to 1 or 2?
What would you like to see more of?
What would you like to see less?

Ok so the first thing I did was go into settings to turn off the music obviously and turn the volume down. Then I worked on resolution, the game had defaulted to something fairly low (don't recall what). I flipped to 2560x1440 and it immediately went haywire, lagged, flipped from screen to screen and had to be forced to close. Couldn't recover it.

So err... there's that, but if it doesn't work with dual monitors or normal resolutions all I can really say is I like the premise and cleaning games seem popular these days so if you crack it, people will buy it.

Edit: With a reboot and just accepting the 1280x720 setting instead of trying to change it, I got to play the opening. I could see this working for people if not me so it's worth people checking out especially when the control systems are a little more fluid.

What do you like? Love this demo sooo much goblins are a big obsession for me which is why I tried the demo in the first place but with 5 seconds of starting the first level I see a mimic realize its the trash can and slime's are my mop the game feels like it had a soul. I hope that literally everything that isn't F#!@ing picking stuff up and moving is done with a monster of some kind.

What don't you like? To go though all of questions in the message I know it's not in the game yet but I feel if I was a single-player with no one to play with I would be disappointed with not being able to see my cosmetics the only thing I could think to fix this is to have mirrors be a idem so you can see yourself. Also I'm not a big fan of how the Slime spawner looks wish it was more round but not a big deal.

Do you prefer levels more similar to 1 or 2? I would say I enjoyed level 2 a lot move it felt like 10-15 minutes too long for single-player but I think that now I'm used to dodging traps so that would fix my time. The first level feels like a test run but the second one feels like the first level to this game with the elevated area you can throw stuff down to so you can put them in the room they need to be placed to to just a random hall that is opened to the cave so you can hear the wind of the cave. I like having a small parkour jump but i feel i would be annoyed if there was to much parkour in a single level I don't want a whole crazy parkour area that I keep messing up just get anger about (I promise i'm not that bad)

What would you like to see more of? Monsters Monsters Monsters all of them aaaahhh. I would like to see the pitchfork used for more it does feel kinda weird that it only has one uses one thing I thought of is having the "meat" only grabbable but the pitchfork. Also I think it would be cute if there were several different faces you could get when spawning a slime or maybe even colors

What would you like to see less? Repetitive items to place even if its just some bit of color or carvings in the wood I feel in a fully game I would get bored with placing all the same chairs and barrels hopefully just like that for the demo.

Hello, thank you for trying the demo. First of all I apologize for the video problems, I must admit that being a test demo we left aside a little bit the settings and configuration, we focused purely on gameplay. We promise that we will work to support as many aspect ratios as possible.

Thanks for the feedback

Hi, thanks for the feedback. Some of the things we have in mind for the future are various types of monsters and more types of traps such as magic traps that require you to fill them with mana with a tool. We're glad you liked the gameplay in general.

I genuinely love the concept of this game, just on its face. I'm someone who always got into Viscera Cleanup Detail, but it does get a touch repetitive if you've mastered a level's layout. I'm also someone mostly prefers "cute" aesthetics? I often though "I would adore VCD even more if I could be a cute maid or waifu instead".

So my feedback basically? Cook, kings and/or queens! Cook! Don't let me tell you what spices your stew needs, you seem to know what you want to make. Just optimize and make the game feel good in terms of UI/UX/animations etc. and I'll be pleased so long as I can still be a maid!

Its super fun besides the slime lever not allowing me to use it after about 5 pulls, making it where i can't get past the first dungeon sadly :/ other than that everything i've done in single player works!

Hello, thank you for trying the demo. I'm very sorry about the error you had with the slimedispenser, may I ask you how the error occurred, you couldn't grab the lever or when you pulled the lever down it didn't do anything?

Thanks.

Hi!
Yes, in the future we are planning cosmetics for the maid, the mop and the slime, as well as the male version of the goblin.

Thanks and more thanks! We continue cooking

I played single player. Once I realized I could accumulate slime in buckets and carry mimics around to feed them meat, I became very comfortable and enjoyed it. However, level 2 seemed too long with solo play. What I would like to see in an update are new tools and new magic that goblins can make cleaning more efficient. and need a third person view mode or mirror.

After a few times of using the lever it stopped even showing that I've clicked/dragged it down even after closing the game and re opening

ok cool

There are only four things to do

1. clean the blood and feed mimic
2. avoid mimic eating me
3. avoid the traps and the death eye (or pull it out)
4. restoring the furniture

It's fun at the beginning but I got board before exploring 100% of the map.
Maybe more game mechanism in the next demo or in the formal release?

hello. First of all, I'm Japanese and I can't speak English very well, so please forgive me if I use any rude expressions.
I'm an amateur, but I'll give my opinion as I like. You may feel uncomfortable at times.
But I love this game and I'm not criticizing you in any way.
I hope this game is officially released and becomes a popular game.

[What do you like?]
・Beautiful graphics
・Goblins are cute.
・Slime is cute.

[What don't you like?]
・I don't want the screen to shake up and down when I pull the lever. I get drunk.
・I feel that the dirt sensor is too powerful and too easy. How about a way to see nearby dirt when using certain items, such as lanterns or torches?
・I don't like parkour. (This is just my personal opinion)

[Do you prefer levels more similar to 1 or 2]
I only noticed a difference in width.
If I had to say it, I like Stage 1 without parkour.

[What would you like to see more of?]
・I want to clean more dirt.
・I think it is necessary that stepping on a pool of blood causes the stain to spread.
・I think a more watery effect would be more pleasurable when using slime.
・I think it would be interesting if slimes made noises. (It's fun to talk too)
・I would like to propose an idea where slime absorbs blood and if it absorbs too much blood, it bursts and spreads dirt.
・I think it's okay to have corpses of adventurers. (Not a piece of meat, but a corpse)
・I want to change equipment with the mouse wheel.
・I want a stage that is white and bright like marble.
・I feel that steam achievements are a must.
・I would like a light source such as a torch or lantern.
・I think it would give me a sense of accomplishment if there was a movie scene that compares the before and after cleaning after cleaning.
・I think it's okay to have a mimic that can't lift. (It's too easy to clean the pieces of meat)
・I want to change FOV.

[What would you like to see less?]
・I don't want to see any achievements related to time attack mode. I want to play slowly.

This is a long story, so I'd like to end it here.
I'm an amateur, and I think some items have already been considered and then rejected.
Please keep doing a good job.
Please feel free to contact me if there is anything I can do to help you with your Japanese.
