I just had to leave a comment cause oh boy this was awesome, I really enjoyed the fact you could examine everything and it would get you a different reaction each day getting creepier and creepier, I really appreciate games like these that scare you using mostly words.

really nice! good job!

I'm thrilled you took the time to inspect everything! They say the devil's in the details, and that's the way to get the full experience out of this game! With the story focus I wanted to do more than get physical reactions out of people, like jumping- I also wanted to make them  think about what was going on and to build up suspicion and paranoia.

Really enjoyed the experience, i m glad you finished your project and look forward to seeing more someday.

Thanks, I'm glad you liked it. More on the way!

First of all, I state somewhere in the beginning of this video that this was developed for some manner of Creepypasta Game Jam. I seem to remember reading that on this page, but now I can't find it at all and I think I may have imagined it or confused it with another game. So, just in case, I apologize for potentially saying something false. That's my bad.


So, on to the game itself. I enjoy RPGMaker horror quite a bit, and it's always fun to see an environment gradually get more demented (great examples of that would be Love, Sam and Suite 776 for those interested), so you're giving me a lot of fun to work with here. and with some of the faces your main character ends up making and the excellent sound design, you do rack up some creeps.

I do find the game to be one of those that tries a little too hard, throwing as much "creepy" at the player as possible with (seemingly) little coherence and relation to the story going on - but that's actually not a bad thing here. All the more demented lines your character start to speak are so over the top that they become immensely entertaining, and like I said, the sound, the faces and some of the implications do actually manage to build up to a creepy atmosphere. It's like a psycho roller coaster ride once you get into it, and it's super fun.

I feel like maybe whatever story is being told here could be communicated just a tiny bit more clearly, but nonetheless, I ended up really getting into the game's off the wall tone, and certainly curious about the real narrative happening here.

So, good work. Hope to some day see what that stinger is about.

Thank you so much for taking the time to do a let's play and a review! As far as the creepypasta game jam thing goes, you're right-it's just mentioned on a splash screen at the start of the game, not on the website. Though I should mention that it's inspired atmospherically by creepypastas, but the story and characters are original.

I'm glad it was an immersive experience for you! Thanks again for the detailed review, and I'll have to check out those recommendations!

Great job on the video! I'm glad you had fun with this game, and I enjoyed your window reaction!

This was such a cute and spooky game. I loved everything about it.

Thank you! I just watched the video, and I like it! If you ever want to play through it again, stick around after the credits for a special surprise ;)

Had a little of a jumpscare somewhere ;)
This was amazing. I really had a blast playing this. Keep on going, you really are an amazing developer!!! I've never created games before but a humble bundle for RPG Assets I recently got is making me think about trying to learn coding, and possible create a project myself... and I've always wanted to involve dragons because well, dragons are my favorite! Now that I've seen you used RPG Maker MV, I may have to get that myself!

A few minutes later after typing what's above:
I actually already have RPG Maker MV and VX Ace! Excited!

Thanks for the kind words! As for making a game, I think you should just go for it! Ngl the first time around there will be a lot of walls you run into, and it'll be challenging to learn certain aspects of coding, but once you overcome them it's that much more rewarding! There's a steep learning curve, too, so it'll be difficult for awhile but once you get the hang of it, you can create just about anything! And if you do finish a game, I'd be happy to play it myself. To me there's no such thing as "enough" RPG games!

(+1)

Awwww, Michaela! Thank you so much! ^-^ I'd be absolutely honored if you were to play a game that I created ^-^ And you're right! There's NO such thing as "enough" RPG games! I'm always going to find Indie/2D games to play! I'm going to play a couple more to get some inspiration and creativity going :D I'm following you now so I'll remember you :)

It'd be my pleasure to try out your game! Also, getting inspiration has always been my favorite part of the creation process! I always keep a notebook handy, just in case I get an idea when I least expect it. And thanks for the follow! Even though it'll be a long time until it's ready, I'm making another game in the series, so that will help keep you posted! 

(+1)

I wonder if there's a way to keep in contact with you ^-^ Other than replying to comments on here, haha! I'd absolutely love to keep you posted on my progress, that way you don't forget about me :P Hahaha! Because, I know mine won't be ready for a long time as well :P

That's a great idea! If you have Twitter, you could DM me @MThisten. If you don't, we could work out something else as well.

(+1)

hey! me and my friend played this game together. you have a lot of potential as a gamedev, and we are cheering you on. keep on keeping on!

Thank you, that means a lot to me!  I think it's awesome that you played it with a friend; that's how I play most games as well! And believe me, I'm just getting started ;)

i think this is one of my favorite rpg games. i hope you make more of these in the future like a sequel! i've always wanted to try making one of these but haven't really had the chance. ngl the bedroom jumpscare made me jump lmao. also, did you draw the characters like alice and her mom yourself? because i really like your unique artstyle :)

(+1)

Thank you for such a nice comment! I am working on the next game, but it'll be awhile before it's ready. Think if this game as an isolated case in a much larger story. Also, I did do all the art myself! I'm glad you like it! And if you ever do get the chance to make a game again, my advice is to just go for it. I didn't think I was ready myself, but because of a contest I'm entering I had a deadline with this game, but  I think it turned out really well!

(+1)

your welcome! take your time with making the next game and yeah there's no need to rush. you have a very unique artstyle. and yes, i lose motivation easily and if something's hard to do i usually give up on it. but i'll try again! your game is very well-made! the plot was really good and don't worry it definitely did turn out well.

Thanks! That's very nice of you to say! And no pressure, but if you do ever finish a game, just let me know. I'm always looking for another good rpg maker game to play! Especially because the engine works for just about any idea. AAA developers don't take many risks, so you can expect more or less the same games from them. But with RPG maker, people can make the games with off-the-wall ideas that wouldn't normally be invested in (and therefore we'd never see) otherwise. They're original. They're fresh. And that's what makes them so exciting! 

Your welcome again! It'll probably take a while for me to make one! And yeah, i feel the same way about RPG maker. I honestly love playing them and they're really original! I'm wondering about making a horror-adventure rpg game at some point.

That's awesome! I'm sure you could tell because of the game I made, but horror is my favorite genre! I'm practically addicted XD The adventure part sounds good, too! 

(+1)

I have to say this is probably my favorite entry to the contest everything was done so well and from the ending I feel like the story isn't 100% over it feels like this was just the beginning to a story I might be totally wrong but I enjoyed it a lot. also is this your first rpgmaker game? 

No, you're absolutely right! This game is an isolated case in a much larger plot. It'll be a long time until it's ready for release, but I'm working on the next installment in the series. As far as my game making, I've worked on a few private projects before but this is my first public release! Thank you so much for the kind comment Rebor; feedback from players like you means a lot to me!

Ill make sure to watch out for the sequel to this you have a lot of great scary promise for a game creator and I made sure to go back and play it a second time around and the amount of details I can now see is amazing how much thought and care went into this even though there was a time limit. There is few questions I'm wondering what is up stairs in the house? Why doesn't she go upstairs even though the bodies are gone? WHO IS HE?  

Get ready, this is a long one! XD 

Upstairs is the other bedrooms, so you're not missing much. The story reason she won't go up is that she's taken anything of value down stairs and has no need to go upstairs, not to mention the memories of her family could upset her one way or another. The technical reason you can't go up is because one of the contest guidelines was to make the game 10 to 20 minutes long, so I left it out to shorten things. 

As for who "HE" is... Well, it's hard to describe. It's a supernatural entity, and in the game it manifests itself as the thing outside the window, as the peeping wall (that background on the seventh day) and as those Alice clones with too many eyes. While the figure in the basement and the skeletons are unusual, those were spirits from the well victims. "HE" is also one of the contributors to Alice's insanity. 

There's a bigger story at work, especially concerning the forest itself, so things will make more sense once the next game comes out. Anyway, it makes me glad that you enjoyed my game so much, and that you're paying attention to all the details!

Found any bugs? Got any compliments or constructive criticism?

Drop me a comment here! I'll be releasing updates in the near future, and I'm working on other projects as well. I'd love to hear what you have to say!

Heya, I know it's been two years since you asked, so you've probably moved onto other projects. I love the concept of your game, even though there were some things that could've been improved, like the artwork and how the story was told for example, but it's still a nice little scary game!
