I have an important message...

...But....

This is not permanent !

I’ve thought a lot about what might be lacking in the game’s design that has led to such little interest, and in my opinion, there are several points:

-The arts: The backgrounds aren’t really top-level, and I admit it (the room, the desk, and the bed are just cubes XD). I’m far from being a professional artist, but creating my game from A to Z has always been my motto. I don’t want to pay someone to work on my game, so I’m doing everything myself, which is why the quality may not be the best.

I want to improve some of the backgrounds (and notably creating my own "settings", "load" and "save" scenes.)

- Voices: The japanese voices you hear are from text to speech websites... so yeah very VERY poor quality XD. But I can't afford to pay voice actors, that's why I used those websites...

For those who played Yann, my other game, you may know that I created Yann's voice using a site called "ElevenLabs," which allows you to modify your voice. I used this concept to create Yann's voice.

The result is much more natural and realistic than the voices used in Mysteries of Twos, and the reason is simple: the voice base is the human voice—specifically, mine—then we use a voice changer that tries to maintain the intonation and emotions as accurately as possible. I plan to use this system to redo the voices of the characters (which will be in English), but it will take time.

- Cutting my game into several parts: Before posting this game in multiple parts three years ago, I had originally completed it as a single installment up to the revelation of the kidnapper (who he is), so let’s say, at the climax of the game XD. Then... I lost all the game files, which became corrupted for reasons I still don’t know. My conclusion was that the game’s base was too heavy, so to prevent it from becoming corrupted again, I decided to split the game into multiple parts (which also serves a purpose for the story).

After considering all these points...

I’ve decided to withdraw my project from public view to focus on its improvement. 

I’m going to essentially remodel and update the game, but I want to emphasize that I won’t be changing the story at all.

I made this important decision because...

I want to give my project a chance. 

I don’t want to see it disappear... I don’t want to see it die... 

It means a lot to me, and I want to put all the chances on my side to have no regrets ! 

Ideally, yes, I would like people to be able to experience the entire story (and the messages that are dear to me and that I want to convey...), but above all, I want to finish this game and include everything I wish to put into it !

I'll restrict access to Mysteries of the Twos pages (prologue and first part) on Monday, so you can all have a chance to read this message :) (you can also write a comment if you like !)

I hope you’ll understand my decision, and I plan to provide regular updates to keep you informed ! 

See you soon! MelaEliera, Creator of "Mysteries of the Twos"
