In this cafe game I have, the average visit length is a measly 4.26 minutes. Why is my game failing? I have a tutorial, I have engagement, I have a rewards system, so why is it failing? (btw, i ran a small sponsor to check how good it is and advertised it, reaping 80 visits)
Your tutorial gui on mobile is not legible. I can’t send a screenshot because the tutorial is not popping up.
I’ve noticed that just now…
I’ll fix it when I get on PC at the dawn of tomorrow. It means I’ll only get 3 hours of sleep but who cares
One reason the retention time is low could be because there arent enough people playing at a point in time to interact with eachother. Think of how many roblox games you know that are fun playing with no one around. Solo games arent really what roblox as a platform supports because of how social most games are.
Well also there is a few things that’s a must have
A) a tutorial unless the game is obvious (you checked this)
B) a way of revenue (you really don’t have this with a cafe mainly only tips)
the music is pretty obnoxious, maybe just add some ambient noises. I don’t really think this helps you figure out why its failing, just a suggestion.
I put item shop screens everywhere…
Fixed
Just played for a bit and I’ve noticed:
Some tutorial text overlaps (I’ve finished pouring my smoothie and it is still prompting me “Go to any smoothie machine in black and press H”) (also worth noting that this part of the tutorial keeps triggering whenever I attempt to return to ground floor), which prevents me from understanding what I’m meant to do next.
This might also be a personal preference, but there were lots of Proximity Prompts and navigating through the map was a little tricky / convoluted with options
You also might want to make the floor have a smoother transition to the ground.
