That's an interesting take. The most "cutesy" game I had pre-Christmas 2010 is the Wii and Mario series. Also, sucks about the "men's game" situation. That itself shows their childish side, and I've seen very bad cases of it in real life. :/ |
Don't get me wrong, they're not particularly mean or hurtful about it. They know I've been playing games all my life and they've accepted that I just play whatever I like playing, I suppose they just feel a bit shaky watching me play a game that looks overly simple for someone my age. They don't tell me what I should or shouldn't play - in fact they're the ones to come to me for suggestions and advice for games - they just whine a bit when I play something that looks like it would appeal only to really young children.
Anyway, I'm sure they'll get used to Kirby over-time. You could educate them a bit about how the game plays so they'll understand it a bit better, explain to them that it's not so easy completing levels while holding on to all your gems. If you have an extra Wii Remote you should give them a chance to try it out themselves. Since Mario and Wii family games are all they've seen from you prior, I'm not too surprised by their reaction to Kirby's Epic Yarn. I'm sure if you just inform that it is a great game they'll accept it in no time.
How technical is your game?
