Sure thing! Adding you to my list. Thank you!

I would love to! :slight_smile: You can send me your screenshots on whichever platform you prefer and Iโ€™ll get to your story and share my feedback here?

Hey love! Iโ€™m done reading the first three chapters of your story! Your cover is amazing, it perfectly suits the story description. But let me get straight to the issues I found.

First, your chapters are really short. The first one literally took me only 3-4 minutes to finish. I advise you to make the chapters to at least 10-13mins long because let me be honest with you, readers like me will tend to hesitate using a pass to read next short chapters even more especially when theyโ€™re not well-directed. The characters just appeared on to the screen, spotting issues like characters are placed so close to each other, layering issues like the MC getting up from the bed (make her from sleeping to standing up to walking to a certain spot). I know coding can be really intimidating especially when youโ€™re doing it for the first time but with lots of practice, your directing skills will surely improve! I recommend you to watch Joseph Evans YouTube channel for coding tips and advice, it will most likely help you.

Lastly, always have someone proofread your work before publishing anything. Perhaps you can add some punctuations to your dialogues/narrations as well. There are so many people on here who are willing to help you with that.

On the brighter side, I appreciate that you gave us a little backstory on the MC and Meganโ€™s friendship. It made me connect to the characters emotionally. I sincerely enjoyed those flashback scenes! :heart_eyes: Please continue writing!

Best of luck with your journey on this story and thanks for doing R4R with me! :heartpulse:

Thank you! I hadnโ€™t realized some of my directing errors before until people started giving me feedback and I really started to look around forums for tips Iโ€™m now fixing my directing and grammar for the next episode as well as the length of the episode.

If you want to contact me through Instagram, it would be much easier for me. I rarely get on here, so it makes it difficult to keep up with RFRs through this platform :joy: @epi.sam.writes is my username :heartpulse: @lqwalter

We already exchanged feedback and screenshots on Instagram but Iโ€™ll just be reposting it here on this thread :slight_smile:

Girl, you have such a brilliant storyline! I can tell the effort of how you did on-the-ground research to your plot. It totally makes the characters realistic and well thought out! Most importantly, it makes the story really engaging (plus the mini-games!). I was fascinated by how you executed every scenes, itโ€™s really smart and the directing was satisfying! No errors found in the chapters so kudos for the job well done!

For improvements: Though itโ€™s not gonna make me shy away to read your future episodes, but I think you need to work on with your chapters length. I took 17-20mins to finish each chapter and Iโ€™d say thatโ€™s pretty long (probably because of the customization and minigames). I would suggest to make your chapters to maximum 13-15mins (based on several polls I encountered, thatโ€™s the average duration time a person would be willing to spend in reading a chapter). This is just a suggestion tho because sometimes chapters length is one big deal for most readers on here :blush: But overall, itโ€™s one of the stories that I would definitely watch out for! :ok_hand:t2:THANK YOU FOR THIS R4R REQUEST! :heartpulse:

Okay darling, Iโ€™m done reading the first three chapters of your story. :slight_smile:

Iโ€™d say the scenes are by far pretty decent for a story that depicts the dark and dangerous world of mobsters. There was minimal character development shown for LI during the first three chapters but you really did well introducing the personality and characteristics of the girl MC! Iโ€™m pretty sure youโ€™ll be able to give us more details about her LI on future chapters and Iโ€™m looking forward to that!

For improvement: First, let me tweak your story decsription:

Meet Lenka Redstone and NY mobster Niklaus Reece. When Lenka ditched her own engagement party, fate crosses their paths. And the man loses himself in her scent.

Remember to use the same tense throughout the clause.

On imminent future, itโ€™s best to look for someone who will do beta-reading before publishing your scripts. I spotted grammar mistakes and itโ€™s kinda a lot. There are many people on here who are very much willing to proofread otherโ€™s works for free. They will surely help you to improve your narrations/dialogues!

The directing is nice, although there are few times I spotted some layering issues. But overall, the transitions and zooming effects were amazing.

Lastly, I feel like the first two chapters end so suddenly. I somehow wish they have better outros. Itโ€™s nice to have a cliffhanger that leaves the readers in suspense and or with a plot that is left unresolved. Nevertheless, I like how you ended chapter 3, it totally gave me a reason to continue reading! :slight_smile:

I wish you the best of luck on your journey with this story! Thanks for doing R4R with me :heartpulse:
