[h2]Greetings, Operators![/h2] The dust has settled and we finally have a moment to summarize the last Steam Next Fest that we have joined with Riot Operator. First of all - a huge thank you to everyone who played the game during the event. We are glad that so many players gave Riot Operator a chance. What's also very inspiring - the reception of the game is also better than ever. [h2]Steam Next Fest Summary[/h2] Before we launched the demo for the Steam Next Fest, we did a quick closed test with a limited group of fans. We have received a lot of honest feedback and a lot of issues were brought to our attention. We started tackling them one by one, focusing on the areas that were mentioned most frequently. This approach has brought us some great results. While the game is still in progress, we are happy to let you know, that basically all the areas were rated higher after the Steam Next Fest. To summarize some stats from the survey for you: Average Rating: 7,03/10 Performance Rating: 4,39/5 Visual Rating: 3,35/5 Audio Rating: 3,10/5 While the visual and audio side of the game is meant to be minimalistic, we will see what we can do about improving these areas. Other than that, we were surprised to notice that: [list] [*] Riot Dispersing, while often rated as a mechanic that requires further improvements, was also considered the most enjoyable element of the game, [*] A huge majority of players (88%) have declared that the game's setting is non-controversial, [*] The reputation system, GUI, and color schemes were not understandable enough for players. [/list] [h2]Next Steps[/h2] What now? We will keep on working hard on Riot Operator. While we are aware that the development is taking longer than expected, we still want to deliver a fine gaming experience your way. Right now, we mainly focus on: [list] [*] Implementation of other scenarios, [*] Improvements in the Riot Dispersing system, [*] Improvements to the Path Finding, [*] Changes to the GUI and the color schemes, [*] Bug Fixing. [/list] Thank you once again for your ongoing support. We will keep on doing our best so you find Riot Operator a satisfying gaming experience at launch. Best regards, Riot Operator Team
