Save System Design poll

Hello there!

A few final touches left before the v0.2.1 release. The save system is practically done but we need your help with choosing the right design for it! ๐Ÿ™‚

How will this save system work?

There won't be just a list of saves. We want to organize saves in a way that you can have multiple game sessions at the same time without the save list being a mess. So we came up with the idea of 'slots' of 'folders', whatever you wanna call them. Basically, all the saves dedicated to one playthrough will be stored in a separate slot. For example, you can have 2 games simultaneously - in one you'll be playing as a dominant Alisa and in another - as a submissive Alisa.

Here we made 4 layout variants for you to choose from.

Whatever you choose - the final design won't look exactly like this. This is just the layout, it's missing our signature grunge style. What we want is to get a general idea of what suits you better as players before we start actually drawing and implementing it into the engine ๐Ÿ˜Š

So, here you go!

1. Slots on top, one big frame

  • A big frame showing the moment of saving appears by hovering on a save

  • Below the frame you can also see the in-game day, location, stats, etc

2. Slots on top, each save has a frame

  • Pretty self-explanatory...

3. No frames at all

  • A minimalistic one!

4. Slots and saves on separate pages

  • The concept is the same as in option 1, but the elements are on separate pages
