gently caress the lovely indie community and the people who kickstarted this thing, the game is good and original and concept is cool but the game is too loving short.

I have some ideas to change this game in something better.

1) Only five areas? Really? Separated each other by level loading? Holy loving poo poo, my commodore 64 had games like that on loving tape! We demand octodad to be an openworld.
2) Make octodad be able to drive his car, maybe even steal them from the neighborhood.
3) Why only a cook is following Octodad, and only some scientists? Put him in a bad hood and make Octodad fights cops and gangsters.
4) Buying groceries? Really? We demand missions based on carjacking, on entering army bases and stealing tanks and making the city burn loving down.
5) Also, the control method is terrible, make Octodad walk like a human being.
6) While we are at it, why there is no DLC and no preorder bonus? Is this 199fucking2? Are we playing with a genesis game?
7) Why don't we have unlockable perks that we can get by entering our e-mail on a website that will be sooner or later killed by server load? And maybe to discourage piracy you can also make the game to connect online to the website.
8) The devs actually lost money by not trying to use real brands in the supermarket, or by having a sponsorship with a soda or a cereal company or something.
9) Next time try to get money from Microsoft by going time exclusive on xbox one, assholes.
10) Actually make Octodad a human.

The opening soon however is good, nothing to report on that, except that maybe it should have featured eminem.

Where does it hurt?
i'd play a Completely Normal Dad mod for Octodad just to see how it worked

it would have to follow the same story like Raptor Archer did

octodad owns but it should've been less stealth-section and more "trying to do dad things"

it felt like they had a really neat idea for a bizarre as gently caress thing like katamari damacy and then when someone told them to expand it to a full game they panicked and tried to make it an actual game and ruined everything that made their game interesting

It's a kickstarter game, it's already wonderful that it's a good game (even if too short) and that the developers finished it :v:
