Need Feedback On My First Game (Releasing Soon)!

Hello reader,

! Notice !
This game is a tycoon.

This is the second time I am making a post such as this, I have took your previous feedback and implemented it into the game! Please let me know what you guys think and if I need to add anything else
to really polish this.

This was a solo project so bare with the Models, User Interface and Bad Theming.

Hi. Firstly, too much text and too many sections in the Tutorial. Also notriced that once I bought my first tree, the conveyor cocnuts did not add to my cash

When you try and harvest the coconuts the proximity prompt gets cancelled due to other coconuts falling.

Some issues I found:

  • The tutorial calls the game “Beach Tycoon”.
  • The conveyor belt has coconuts even though I haven’t collected them, that gives me an illusion tricking me into thinking that every coconut touching the red part will give me money. Nevermind, there is a part which gives the money
  • I’ve got no idea how this happened but all aut of a sudden, when I was typing the previous issue, I got ~1700 coins. Probably related to the playtime rewards
  • The main menu looks out of place with the odd font with serifs.
  • The coconut tree 2 and 3 and the other trees around it didn’t generate when I bought them. Nevermind, they were placed next to the conveyor belt and they produce coconuts for it
  • The skybox…
  • The game gets laggy quickly
  • The coconut tool feels like an excuse to not fix the clogging problem. There is a simple fix: Collision Groups. Just make it so the coconuts don’t collide with each other.
  • The trees and bananas next to the upgraders are CanCollide true, but the monkeys aren’t.
  • The water animation at the sides of the map is flickering.

Other than these, I liked the game. Rebirthing is pretty easy, perhaps you should make it slightly more difficult.

Also, I’m not sure if the rebirth multipliers work correcty. Is the manual tree supposed to drop coconuts giving 8 coins when I have 2 rebirths? When that happened I think there was something like “monkey rage” (I don’t really remember the name) with an x2 multiplier or something.

The first thing is there are barely any sounds try adding more second thing is that the auto coconut collector doesn’t give me any coins

What? There should be a bank where the cash is deposited at this can be found via next to the conveyor.

Thank you! Yeah the tutorial was made way in pre development, will change and i will fix this! The game gets laggy due to meshes, is there any way around meshes causing lag? Also thank you for the collision group I did not know this!

I experienced lag when there were a lot of coconuts colliding. That sort of lag can be fixed by preventing the coconuts from colliding, so the collision group fix for the clogging problem would also fix this.

Yes i will fix this, This is a known bug but i can use collision groups! Thank you.

Thank you for telling me about collision groups I have implemented your feedback. Also looking at your old feedback the manual coconut is worth 2, after debugging the calculations you should be gaining around 6-8 depending on monkey rage being activated. The monkeys were canCollide off due to their hitbox messing with the drops, but since you mentioned the collision group this also has been fixed. For the water i assume this is a roblox rendering bug? I can’t seem to replicate it on my pc or phone, Also for the skybox it was kinda a placeholder for just a testing.

Heres what I fixed:
Tutorial Displaying Beach Tycoon
Moved The Bank Closer To The Dropper Buttons So Its More Visible.
Added Collision Groups
Deleted Harvesting Coconut Tool.
Rebirth base price is now 500k. This gets multiplied by your current rebirths.
Example: 500,000x2 (rebirths) = 1,000,000.
Skybox has been changed.

Ideas:
Might make monkey rage into a GUI button you have to spam click with a debounce of .5 after 500 clicks you enable it but there’s a cooldown of 2 minutes.

Appreciate the feedback, i feel more happy about the game state now.
