Ohh nice concept. I love Dashaun's energy and the voice actor did a great job bringing it to life
This was so cute! A really neat concept, having him be the player's support system for a possible future procedure. The voice actor did such an amazing job! I loved the energy and how positive everything felt. Thanks for sharing! :)
Hi Frozenstar, thank you so much! The voice actor Maya Miko is the absolute best! Agree with you, he did a great job! Aw, I'm so happy you found this cute, energetic and positive. That's exactly what I was hoping for. :)
This was so much fun!! The dialogue and voice acting ( props to the VA and voice direction!) was gold, I was laughing so hard at the "joke" choices.
Dashaun's excitement is simply contagious and I love his design (the face's lines especially are so cool). His flirting was smooth too, like okay sir I see you.
Hi Yuno I('m) Write, how wonderful to hear from you! I'm so happy you had fun! :) Yay! Loved hearing how you enjoyed the dialogue and voice acting. I spent like the entire 10 day game dev on that flirty banter and it was wicked fun to write. Thank you for taking the time to write your feedback. It means a lot to me. Thanks! Lila
Ohh, nice that you got a rapper to voice Dashaun! I was wondering what 'be gone' means and then I actually leaves LOL
Amazing work on the game!
Hi Azure, thanks so much for playing! Oh, good point about "Be gone." I was trying to be consistent with the choices - Be shocked, Be curious, Be gone, so everything was "Be.... something", but I totally get what you're saying. Glad you liked the rapper. I had wicked fun writing the dialogue, and honing my voice direction. Working with Maya Miko, amazing voice talent, to voice Dashaun was such a pleasure and gift. Have an awesome day!
