Questions about a storygame? Thoughts on Eternal? Any other IF you're playing out there?

First finished storygame, some bad ratings, little

12 years ago
I've published my first non-demo storygame here, and right now it has a pretty low score. I wouldn't be talking about this if I got more negative or critical comments on it, and for that matter, I'm not targeting alienalpha for their comment because I understand why they didn't like it perfectly fine. ...Actually, I'm better off just saying it. I'm pretty much targeting betaband, for commenting 'ahhhhhh' and gave me a score of 3 right off the bat. I don't want that to feed a flame of low ratings + non-informative/no comments. I also know that there are higher-rated games with a lot of low ratings as well, and the way storygame ratings are processed, outliers are left out and such, but...come on, there's been a bunch of low-rated storygames lately...and if mine's bad too, at least I'd like to know why it fails!

It's a 5/8 now :)

Thank you for the valuable input! By the way, I just now noticed that the title of this topic cut "little commentary" or something like that to "little", but it probably doesn't matter.

3J, mine's 5/8 too, and it's clearly worse than Trish's story.
