Just found Unleash recently and it's been fun so far for a relatively simple game. I will admit I am struggling to get past the Vipers Moan, as I'm stuck trying to figure out the password, so far my only clue is that Saturday's Brew sounds familiar to the bouncer, but still won't let me pass. I can't think of anything else that might work. Any hints or suggestions would be helpful and greatly appreciated.

All the loops were made specifically for the game either by the games composer or myself!
Also, I am outrageously flattered you'd do fan art! :0o
I haven't drawn more than diagrams in twenty years before this.
Nine hours solid working on this. I read the description in the game, and something in the back of my mind said yes, do that, and I didn't even question the thought but just went and fetched my tablet and pens, and set to work, and did not stop. I only even managed to pause once, and that only lasted until I moved ahead in the game a little and hit the "tunnel" loop. Five seconds in, I knew I wasn't going to be able to stop again, not even for a minute, until the work was done.
But then that's entirely apropos, isn't it?

This is absolutely amazing! :0o
Do you have a twitter or a tumblr? Because with your permission I would love to show this off, and I wanna know the best way to credit you!
Thank you! I wasn't wholly displeased with how it came out, myself. ^___^
You're certainly welcome to use this drawing however you like - I claim no rights in it other than I'm probably going to hang the original on my wall. If you can use a version without the text overlay and/or a transparent background, let me know, and I'll send them along! As far as credit goes, I don't have either of those things, but if you want to say that a little alien thing drew this, and link people to my profile here on Itch, that works!
Something else I'd have liked to say about Unleash before, too! Quite aside from the game's well-turned and ample horny, I really got a kick out of the whole noir theme, and out of the way your take on it plays with the genre's tropes - I haven't read a lot of hardboiled-detective stories, but those I have read are uniformly characterized by a kind of grim humorlessness, maybe because their authors felt a lighter tone wouldn't wear well on their steely-eyed but rather despairing protagonists. It was really great to see the genre played with a wink and a grin, so thanks for that! Five stars for narrative especially doesn't feel like enough...
