I can't recommend this. It feels like its running in slow motion. Overall on paper this sounds like a game that would be right up my alley. I liked Game Dev Tycoon, and it has similar mechanics to that. I like comics so the topic is on par with a topic I'm interested in. You gain points towards the different elements you assign to the story with the slider much like in Game Dev Tycoon. However they go so slowly up to the project that a lot of times you earn 4 or 5 points but the production time ends before it can be assigned to your comic project There are areas where you can type character names, and backgrounds. But Characters are super limited. On top of that writing that stuff does pretty much nothing as when you write a comic, it doesn't carry anything over with the created characters other than the name and archetype villain, hero, etc. You have to re-select them as the hero, villain, love interest, supporting role, etc. When creating the characters if you accidentally hit villain or love interest there doesn't seem to be a way to deselect that. The game also only allows you to add 4 characters to a story, I only ever tried to add 3 characters to a story in the time I played…

Stopped updating in 2020. Game largely unfinished, buggy, and full of typos. If it was free it would be a rip off.
Not recommended Nov 8, 2022
Do not get this game. I'm still a little peeved that I wasted my money on it, but obviously that's my fault. Please keep in mind that this is a FULLY released game. It has so little features that it get's boring after the first two hours. It looks like the devs threw together something in a rush just so they can make a quick buck. Not to mention I haven't really seen an update since I bought this. If this were an early release, not a full release, I'd still say not to buy it. The fact that it is fully released and not still in development is baffling. Do not get this game.
