I hope you are well, the game is good, but right now seems a bit lacking to just restart when you die without additional points of start or something like it.

If you're asking about getting "decision-locked", then depending on your resolution, it might be hidden under the toolbar. For this version, you can hide the toolbar using keyboard shortcut "H" or even change the text size using the "setting".
How about you leave a wheel of fate that allows players to obtain extra points at the allocation screen. I mean cultivation protagonists have more abilities cimpared to others.
I think you should also develop some stronger versions of the merididan purification technics. In my opinion it is the best technique, but the output becomes so bad after the 5th stage, that I had to help with many qi gathering pills in order to reach the 6th stage.
I struggel the most with the time you need to get to the breakthrough. You could also try to decrease the strength of the bottlenecks. I needed to reach the 6th stage like 7 qi gathering pills.😅
Hey fellow daoist, I'm still living and working on the game😊. While I'm really happy for your enthusiasm, but I'm very open about my situation from the very start.
I'm not an actual game dev nor programmer, I already have full time job unrelated to tech industry. I'm doing this to have fun on my free time and because I really love the genre. I wish I could work more on the game, but I couldn't because of my very limited free time.
This project is a marathon. I like it, and I'm proud of it. So I will probably keep working on the game as long as its fun for me. I might later branch out and make other games, but I will keep coming back to the game, when I learn more and want to add more stuff.
Hopefully, when I actually release an update, it will be decent enough, so people would have fun playing the game 😁
I like the challenge of a hard game like this and already have fun playing it, but the only thing I dare to criticize is the increasingly slowing progress.
Means: Bottlenecks less hard, faster cultivation progress and I would like to know the use of learning techniques?
Could you make cultivation a bit more efficient, because it is basically impossible to reach further than 5th stage Qi Condensation in one lifetime, please?
I managed to get to the 5th stage by putting all my points into spiritual root, comprehension and a bit on psyche. But the game is too barebones, nothing really happens and then you die.
Hey, I checked your game, and it looks awesome. But you're using Unreal 5 and I don't think my old laptop could handle it. And I also doubt I would even have the time to do anything else at the moment.
But yeah, good luck with your game. Maybe we could collaborate in the future.
On phone, there was a situation where a cultivator was looking down on a servant or something. So i stood up which was a bad idea since i was only at my first qi condensation, but then, i couldn't click on confirm because of the interface like inventory, sect and more. Even scrolling down doesn't work
Made an account just to comment. This game is really good, of course, there's still a lot of fixing and work that needs to be done but the potential is there. I've been keeping an eye on this for about a year, and I would definitely see this being a paid game on steam if there's enough content. There's a big audience for these types of games and I wish only success for you since this is really the only good looking cultivation game out there so far.
Thank you for the kind word. While I have no plan making this game a paid game on steam, I do really hope that the game could be game that's be good enough for that kind of status, and still a free game.
And please forgive all the flaws, this is my first time making a game and I'm still learning about everything.
I apologize, but I changed some stuff like changing webpack to vite and now using Tailwind instead of vanilla CSS. So I'm rewriting codebase while learning new stuff again. Unfortunately, it's still gonna be a while.
Dude wtf tales of demons and god's isn't 100% cultivation and Magic emperor sucks if he wants to get inspired it better be with things like I shall seal the heavens or carefree path of dreams or library of heavens path or martial world!
Yeah your right , I agree with what you say , you give better examples than me . I wish to the developer the best luck and continue with what he's/she's doing.
Some ideas for things that could be added to the game (I warn you that it's long as hell and have a questionable English from Google Translate)
1° thing: It would be cool if you could customize your appearance and also have other options for starting the story, something like normal cultivator, Isekai, reincarnation of an immortal and other things. And also like the other guy said, it would be great if there was an option to start with more points, and you could combine this with the backstory options.
2° thing: something like something extra that you get depending on your backstory (example: you chose reincarnation of an immortal and can choose between a special martial art, a unique cultivation technique, the location of a special weapon or something else). then depending on the backstory you choose you have different bonus options, always having the option of starting with nothing.
3° thing: if you could choose your starting elements and level of affinity with each one. depending on your affinity you would have a certain type of special constitution (example: you have maximum fire affinity then you have the constitution of the heavenly flames or something like that). Therefore, depending on your elemental affinities, you could not learn certain techniques or cultivation would be very slow, and the opposite also applies, you would be able to cultivate faster with a technique of the element you have more affinity with. Along with that you can add pills of a certain element that if you consume without having affinity with the elements it wouldn't give you much help besides causing damage to your body, and if you have affinity you would have more effect than with a common pill wue has no elements.
4° thing: a relationship system, where people can like you or hate you, then you can be attacked or bullied by people who don't like you and for people who like you you can ask for things like cultivation guidance if they have a higher level than yours, ask to train with you, help you with missions and other things, lose money or other items and be able to be accepted as a disciple by someone who is in a higher cultivation realm than yours and be able to accept someone as disciple if he is at a lower cultivation realm than yours. In addition to all this being able to have relationships and get married. If you have disciples you can train them and then send them to do missions and collect items and materials for you, and if you have a special NPC as a master you can learn some exclusive technique from them.
5° thing: you can use other types of cultivation, the normal one where you have to meditate and such, Demonic where you have to kill others to get stronger and f And physical cultivation in which you have to do physical training and refine your body to become stronger. Along with that, something like being able to cultivate the dao of weapons such as swords, sabers, spears and other. And just like weapon dao you can cultivate your body dao like fist, palm, kick, etc.
6° thing: You can do alchemy and make your own pills and elixirs, so you would have to buy, grow or find the necessary ingredients in nature, in addition to having to buy better cauderoes to do higher level things. In addition to alchemy you could also add blacksmithing so you can craft your own cauldrons and weapons. And in addition to all this being able to buy and sell things with money and not just points, the money could be something like spiritual stones or something like that, the higher the level, the more it's worth.
7° thing: Having factions and sects of these factions such as demonic, orthodox and unorthodox, hence you would be limited to which machete you could join depending on which Martial path you follow, If you are a demonic cultivator you can only join unorthodox and demonic factions, if you are a normal cultivator you can only join orthodox and unorthodox factions, and if you are a body cultivator you can be from any faction.
8° thing: would be something like your position in your sect and your faction, the sect ranks would be: outer disciple, inner disciple, elite disciple, core disciple, elder, vice sect leader, sect leader and grand elder, the ranks of the faction would be council member, core member, elder, deputy faction leader and faction leader. In addition to this, there would be the strength ranking, with the ranking of disciples at each level, the ranking of the members of the sect, the strength ranking of each sect in the faction, the ranking of each sect in the world, the ranking of people on each faction and the ranking of people in the world, each ranking would only show the top 100.
Thank you for your time and thank you for reading until the end.
If you are the creator of the game, the game is very good and has immense potential, I wish you all the success in the world and good luck.
Btw you can make different difficulties like normal cultivator(current) and MC(which gets more stat points in the beginning and a chosen super power like super talent or a reincarnation system) and absolute GOD(which gets all maximum stats and all the super powers) you should also add weak and powerful masters and special cultivating and fighting techniques!
Maybe also add dungeons and options to forfeit the sect and join another and more options to stop slavery or start slaving people!
I just thought that since it's a world where the strong eat the weak the MC could adapt to there ideas about slavery but I guess it would be more interesting if the MC fought against slavery (AKA thousands of years of traditions)
btw bro if you need help developing the game I could be your man cause I've been studying ALOT lately so if you want just reply here and I will send you my discord or whatever!
(Oh and when I say studying I mean programming and learning computer languages)
Thanks for the offers. But this project is also my way of learning programming and game dev. I'm gonna keep doing this on my own to level up my game dev and programming skill.
Maybe we can do something in the future together for something bigger 😊
M'lord, it would be my most honest appreciation and gratitude if you could enlighten this humble soul about the date of the next update of yer most wonderful masterpiece, Xianxia simulator !
Q: Do you have a Subscribestar or a patreon? It is a lot better for recurrent subs, and I want to support it.
A: Unfortunately I don't have Subscribestar. I do have Patreon, but I don't use it because I prefer Ko-Fi. They're just nicer to small creator. You can support me with Ko-Fi here. It would really help out.
Q: slave event, it forces "make a choice", but there is no choice offered (I failed both Charm and whatever second check was)
A: If you're asking about getting "decision-locked", then depending on your resolution, it might be hidden under the toolbar. For this version, you can hide the toolbar using keyboard shortcut "H" or even change the text size using the "setting".
Q: on slave event, to not intervene. Being forced into a scenario is really something game should avoid.
A: Almost all event still need to be improved, so yeah, there will be choice in the future. Including the servant event. Even the stat check was a new improved thing from the previous version. Hopefully, it will be more robust and better as I keep working on the game.
Q: will we have a proper protagonist superpower for cultivation, or is it a "normal" cultivator simulator? Both can be fun.
A: In the future (not sure when), you will have the options to pick which one you prefer. But the "Novel MC" route would have harder difficulty.
Q: somehow highlight save button? I am still not sure how to save.
A: You can only save in your "home" screen. It should be screen with Your Name - Year.

I hope you are doing well and that you will be able to continue making this great gam
I hope you are well, the game is good, but right now seems a bit lacking to just restart when you die without additional points of start or something like it.
Very little story, This game really has potential.

How about you leave a wheel of fate that allows players to obtain extra points at the allocation screen. I mean cultivation protagonists have more abilities cimpared to others.
I already have other plans for that, so it probably won't be a wheel of fate. At least that's not the plan. But it might change, I'm not sure myself 😊
I think you should also develop some stronger versions of the merididan purification technics. In my opinion it is the best technique, but the output becomes so bad after the 5th stage, that I had to help with many qi gathering pills in order to reach the 6th stage.
I struggel the most with the time you need to get to the breakthrough. You could also try to decrease the strength of the bottlenecks. I needed to reach the 6th stage like 7 qi gathering pills.😅
Still living? It would be a waste to not update such a good game!
Hey fellow daoist, I'm still living and working on the game😊. While I'm really happy for your enthusiasm, but I'm very open about my situation from the very start.
I'm not an actual game dev nor programmer, I already have full time job unrelated to tech industry. I'm doing this to have fun on my free time and because I really love the genre. I wish I could work more on the game, but I couldn't because of my very limited free time.
This project is a marathon. I like it, and I'm proud of it. So I will probably keep working on the game as long as its fun for me. I might later branch out and make other games, but I will keep coming back to the game, when I learn more and want to add more stuff.
Hopefully, when I actually release an update, it will be decent enough, so people would have fun playing the game 😁
I like the challenge of a hard game like this and already have fun playing it, but the only thing I dare to criticize is the increasingly slowing progress.
Means: Bottlenecks less hard, faster cultivation progress and I would like to know the use of learning techniques?
Could you make cultivation a bit more efficient, because it is basically impossible to reach further than 5th stage Qi Condensation in one lifetime, please?
Could you provide download options?
I dont get further than 3rd stage qi refining. Can someone give advice to me please?
I managed to get to the 5th stage by putting all my points into spiritual root, comprehension and a bit on psyche. But the game is too barebones, nothing really happens and then you die.
Hasnt been updated in a long time too.
I normally do 3 roots, 7 comprehension and 6 psyche. What cultivation techniques do you practine in-game?
But I reached the 5th stage too without paying. My goal is atleast 6th stage
It is really barebones, buggy and nothing happen much. The dev is an obvious beginner 😊
nice work
Thank you for the kind word 😊
Hello, I am working in the Xianxia Genre too. Can we help each other somehow. Thanks
Hey, I checked your game, and it looks awesome. But you're using Unreal 5 and I don't think my old laptop could handle it. And I also doubt I would even have the time to do anything else at the moment.
But yeah, good luck with your game. Maybe we could collaborate in the future.
How come there is no option to download the game?
Hey bro you still alive?
It's been a while since the last update and I was wondering if you are OK!
There is no pressure we know that this isnt your main job and you are using it as a chance to learn so its normal that you dont have time for it.
I am just concerned for you that's all.
Yes, I'm still alive. Still working on the game on weekends 😊 The usual, so many things to do, but not much time to actually do it.
Not sure when the update is going to be ready, but hopefully soon.
Good to hear bro
On phone, there was a situation where a cultivator was looking down on a servant or something. So i stood up which was a bad idea since i was only at my first qi condensation, but then, i couldn't click on confirm because of the interface like inventory, sect and more. Even scrolling down doesn't work
Mobile is still kinda buggy. Version 0.1 was the first version that had mobile support. Hopefully the next update would be better on this regards.
I found a way though, there is an option where u can turn the web into computer-like screen as version, i don't know how to explain
That's good to hear. Hopefully in the next version, you won't need to do that, and things would just... works...
Hopefully...
How do you do it
Sorry i'm late, on my website there is a 3 dots to the right, i click on it and scroll down to see "version for computer". It may be different for you
Anyone know of there is a realm above qi condensation? Because I havent been able to get past the 5th level pf it without dying from lack of lifespan
Foundation Establishment Realm, but I have never reached it too.
My max Cultivation was 4th stage Qi Condensation
At the moment no... the max level you can reach before reaching end of the content message is 8th Qi Condensation.
Would be cool if there was a nonbinary gender option at some point in the future,,,
Maybe in the future when I implement relationship/romance system on the game.
Can you choose your preferred gender of your LI? I chose a man, and it said I was married to a beautiful woman. Or is the character always hetero?
At the moment, you can't. Maybe in the far future when we have some kind of romance/relationship system.
Almost everything in the game is just placeholder for something. Including the prologue. It probably won't stay the same in the future.
Okay, thanks for the answer. Also, your picture is adorable :)

Hey where the next uupdate at
I apologize, but I changed some stuff like changing webpack to vite and now using Tailwind instead of vanilla CSS. So I'm rewriting codebase while learning new stuff again. Unfortunately, it's still gonna be a while.
It's ok , we all know you are doing your best and you have my support😊😊
Great job bro , last time I played this game was maybe 2 months ago and you improve it very smart like manhwa and manhua .
I recommend to read tales of demons and god and Magic Emperor to inspire by them and make a great update better than this .
And your game will rank among the very popular in the future.
Dude wtf tales of demons and god's isn't 100% cultivation and Magic emperor sucks if he wants to get inspired it better be with things like I shall seal the heavens or carefree path of dreams or library of heavens path or martial world!
Yeah your right , I agree with what you say , you give better examples than me . I wish to the developer the best luck and continue with what he's/she's doing.
Well, now I feel bad for being aggressive

The other guy??!!?!?!!
BOY AMA FUCK YOU UP
That are great ideas , I wish if the developer to apply all or some of them .
All good ideas, and some of them already in my own wish list. But probably gonna be a bit far in the future. Hopefully, I can put them in the game.
I don't know if I'm really bad at this game or it's just hard.
How long until the next update. I'm excited for the next updates, keep up the great work.
how long does Jade Vitality Herb make you live for?
I bought it when i was 74 and died at 96
I bought all 3 and died at 90 TT
Hey captain, what is the current cultivation cap?
im confuse how do to the next qi stage? TT, can anyone explain to me?
Btw you can make different difficulties like normal cultivator(current) and MC(which gets more stat points in the beginning and a chosen super power like super talent or a reincarnation system) and absolute GOD(which gets all maximum stats and all the super powers) you should also add weak and powerful masters and special cultivating and fighting techniques!
Maybe also add dungeons and options to forfeit the sect and join another and more options to stop slavery or start slaving people!
All of that is in the plan, just need to put it in the game. Probably not the slaving people but yes to other things😊
I just thought that since it's a world where the strong eat the weak the MC could adapt to there ideas about slavery but I guess it would be more interesting if the MC fought against slavery (AKA thousands of years of traditions)
Great idea would be great if it was added in the next update

Dude I don't know why but you are really kind and humble....I will be watching your progress
M'lord, it would be my most honest appreciation and gratitude if you could enlighten this humble soul about the date of the next update of yer most wonderful masterpiece, Xianxia simulator !
Still a bit long because atm its very hectic at work and I've been stuck in never-ending overtime cycle. And the next update is another big update.
JUST CHECKED AND IT WAS UPDATED BASED?!
WHY ARE YOU USING FULL CAPS and what do you mean?
Please fix the problem when time in negative.
There is a button for bug report
This is beautiful. Do you have a Subscribestar or a patreon? It is a lot better for recurrent subs, and I want to support it.
Also, how do I progress after level 2 of breathing cultivation?
Bugs:
- slave event, it forces "make a choice", but there is no choice offered (I failed both Charm and whatever second check was)
Requests:
- on slave event, to not intervene. Being forced into a scenario is really something game should avoid.
- will we have a proper protagonist superpower for cultivation, or is it a "normal" cultivator simulator? Both can be fun.
- somehow highlight save button? I am still not sure how to save.
Thank you for the kind word 😉
Q: Do you have a Subscribestar or a patreon? It is a lot better for recurrent subs, and I want to support it.
A: Unfortunately I don't have Subscribestar. I do have Patreon, but I don't use it because I prefer Ko-Fi. They're just nicer to small creator. You can support me with Ko-Fi here. It would really help out.
Q: slave event, it forces "make a choice", but there is no choice offered (I failed both Charm and whatever second check was)
A: If you're asking about getting "decision-locked", then depending on your resolution, it might be hidden under the toolbar. For this version, you can hide the toolbar using keyboard shortcut "H" or even change the text size using the "setting".
Q: on slave event, to not intervene. Being forced into a scenario is really something game should avoid.
A: Almost all event still need to be improved, so yeah, there will be choice in the future. Including the servant event. Even the stat check was a new improved thing from the previous version. Hopefully, it will be more robust and better as I keep working on the game.
Q: will we have a proper protagonist superpower for cultivation, or is it a "normal" cultivator simulator? Both can be fun.
A: In the future (not sure when), you will have the options to pick which one you prefer. But the "Novel MC" route would have harder difficulty.
Q: somehow highlight save button? I am still not sure how to save.
A: You can only save in your "home" screen. It should be screen with Your Name - Year.
Thank you for the answer.
Though,
> Novel MC
> hard difficulty
Made me laugh a bit.
