    I am working on a simulator that is based on what people said they wanted on reddit so i spend 6 1/2 hours so far working on it and it is nearly complete.

    Video:



    Note: Copyright notices added in intarnal build and ammo box texture changed.
    Current intarnal build:0.68 Beta

    What do you do in the game?
    You protect the paintings for over 7 hours while they dry but someone keeps trying to do armed robberies on the art building so it is up to you to protect thoes priceless artworks, Can you be the hero who can protect them while trying to stay alive?

    EST Launch: Mar 1st
    EST Price: £0.99

    0.70 Beta Improves AI and makes the game more harder.

    not sure, id certainly play dont know about paying though. can you actually see the paint dry? its hard to tell from the video, but if there was someway to elaborate the actual paint drying that might help a bit. think it needs bit more of a novelty factor to it somehow.

    Why not just have the player protect an art gallery from theft? I'm not really sure what the point of the paintings being wet is and it doesn't make sense for them to be hanging on a gallery wall if they are.

    Likely a play on the phrase "as interesting as watching paint dry". They challenge is to take most boring thing imaginable and turn it into an exciting, intense game.

    They is some signs.
    It changes textures 3 times within the 7 hours with each one being clearer to see.

    This the reasons we added someone trying to steal the paintings.
    And they keep coming back so you keep having things to do. (And if you figer out the first spawn point you will have a surprise if you find a hiding spot to tab out).

    Why not post it up on one of those free game sites like gamejolt. No offence but it's a bit ambitious to think you'll get the votes for this on steam.

    Ok some feedback:
    1. I think it may sell for the novelty factor as Air Control did after it started getting attention.
    2. For a 'paint drying' simulator I think the whole paint drying aspect needs to be expanded upon.
    3. Nobody paints and hangs it in the gallery still wet. Think about that.
    4. It looks like you've poorly cobbled together some assets to shoehorn into this theme.
    5. If a user follows your Greenlight trailer on Stream and watches your other videos they can watch the 'Noises as i am rolling side to side on my bed' video:
