    Sorry about the quality of today’s story, it slipped through the cracks. Human writers sometimes means human mistakes 😢 Expect our regular higher quality stories moving forward :)

      I am glad the author tried something new. Sometimes new works and sometimes it doesn't. This onr just did not. I hope you encourage authors to experiment.

    I'm kinda torn. I like this new narrator's voice, but the stories he's given aren't great. I've listened to three or four of his stories and quit halfway through. They just didn't hold my attention.
    Im simply not sure. Although I want to say he's ticking all the boxes. Is my issue with his narration or the stories he's being given?
    That said, when I encounter other stories, Frayren for example. I expect to hear Larissa. So don't be giving him an existing series. I suppose I'm trying to say that this narrator would do well with a top end story, but something entirely his own. Don't waste his talent, simply give him something worthy of it.

      I think it's the stories he's been given. Unlike you, I've listened to the stories I've come across that he narrates all the way through. Some are better than others. I think he would do well if they found a well written series just for him.

    Hello everyone! The author here. With this story, I was trying something completely different from what I've seen before, just as an experiment. A new and different style, which is why I decided to write about kids. The point of the story was that in the end, they would realize that the alien they released was still there with the guard, even after the portal closed. This meant that, in fact, the kids made a terrible mistake by freeing it, which would leave space to build a continuation.
    However, since this style isn't really HFY, and I need to bring consistent results for the channel, I will go back to writing in my previous style and work on my old universe.

      Mate it's good to experiment. If you don't you will become stale and your talent will suffer as a result.
      Keep going mate.

      I am glad that you experimented with this one. Is it one of the weaker ones lately? Yes. But when you try new things some work some don't. I would encourage you to keep trying new things.
      I can't even say why I bounced off it. It feels like the kid sci-fi movies from the 80s or early 90s.

    Well, that was strange. Looks like there's going to be a couple of scientists in hot water over this. I hope the guard was able to shut the pod. Just in case that was one of the immortal ones. The new guy needs to work on his voices, but, not a bad job for a noob. But the story needs a better ending than it got. At least something letting us know what happens to the kids for being somewhere they shouldn't have been.

      Hi, it's the author of the story here. I was planning to make a continuation of this story, which would have a very different approach and style. Something like Stranger Things or Ender's Game. The kids would face some consequences, such as the alien that was released, which actually managed to escape. This would open up space for the story to continue, with the aliens making their way back to the Earth's surface, all because of a silly mistake made by these kids. However, from now on, I will focus on the previous universe that I was building

      @@harfen6997 Hell no! This was a good start. A continuation with consequences would be great. The idea was pretty good, it's that chopping things off at the end that hurts. I'm old enough that I got to see reruns of the old space serials like Commando Cody when I was growing up. They always left you with a cliffhanger, but also gave you just enough info to leave you anticipating the next instalment. So many of these stories just chop off and don't pick back up that you don't know what to expect. If you plan to continue with more stories, try something like as the portal closes, you have the guard say something like "Oh hell, the boss ain't going to be happy when he hears this." That hints at the idea that there's going to be more. I love to write myself. But, I've broken both of my hands, and well, arthritis sucks. But you keep up the good work!

    Excellent narration! The story is technically well written, but doesn't really appeal to me. Of course, that's mainly my loss. It's also clearly written to be continued, and may grow on me. Yes, that means I'll definitely listen to a part two. I need my twice daily Starbound dose, so help me!

      @@harfen6997 I'm very much in favor of experimenting and exploring different styles and approaches. It'll necessarily be hit and miss, especially with regard to the tastes of individuals. It's the best way of developing yourself, though, and the only way to create something unique. Take what you can use from the feedback, ignore the rest. Even if this story didn't appeal to me, I still found it far ahead of most HFY, and you have a guaranteed audience in me.

      I quit after a third of it.
      It's poorly written: not credible characters, a story telling/explaining one (a technique I haven't seen for maybe 20 years outside kid's programs), predictable, some logical errors.
      I bet the rest of the story is also highly predictable! The boy does something he's but supposed to, but then he saves the world with his gaming skills..? How creative; Disney want their cheesy storyline back!
      Also, has the narrator a hiccup?!
