There will be in-game hidden scenes and secrets, but I'm afraid I can't speak about them because they are......
...secret! So secret that not even I know what they are.
Oh I missed that, but I'm happy I discovered police man scene, I'm so proud of myself xD. I didn't think it would be real and like something would happen. My favorite part tho is Mr. Rob. It was fun and that house was actually nice except for the bathroom and that one prison room. But I enjoyed playing that part the most :D. Just 1 month and u're done and everyone can play your game! Can't waittttt!!!
Before making Mr. Rob, the game was supposed to be more serious. But I loved the idea of Mr. Rob and how absurd everything was, so the game got a shift in tone because of that mysterious individual. Actually, there's a chance that the same could happen with Alesa 3, but I'm still undecided (and I'm still considering the "Pure horror/comedy mode" options).
A House for Alesa 3 is currently on pause because I'm finishing another game for a jam (which I think will be a pretty good game, albeit shorter than Alesa and with a far smaller scope). The game will be about an evil Pinocchio doll and I could actually take some of the features I've implemented and use them for A House for Alesa 3. But yeah, I plan to have everything ready by mid september
I loved comedy scenes, but I personally prefer pure horror more. A house for Alesa 1 was pure horror and that's what made me wanna play second game yk. It was scary and it's one of those things I could watch over and over again without getting bored. Game 1 was really something so good I just didn't record it cuz game 2 came out and I didn't want to be late. But yeah I mean I like comedy scenes I think adding modes would be good I just hope it's not too much work.
I was checking out your other games and I was thinking of recording something like under the something I forgot the name, but I think it's long like house for alesa u play it for like an hour. So if this would be shorter it would be amazing! I'll consider playing under the something (sorry) after a house for Alesa 3!
"There's Something in the Anderghast Mine"? Yes, that game can be quite long, even longer than A House for Alesa 1 and 2. The main problem with that game is that the areas are too big and there are no maps, so players get lost with ease. Also, although it has difficulty options, some players had trouble even with the easiest difficulty, because some of the chases are a bit difficult. That one is pure horror and a large portion of the game is played in the darkness with a lamp (and there are like different 10 monsters that chase you and it has 4 endings)
Oh thank you for explaining! Yes, that's the game! I'd prefer to play something shorter for YouTube! I'll prob try that game without recording for fun! By how this game sounds I'm glad you improved. I was playing one game a year ago, but I have up because there was a part I couldn't go pass. It was so complicated I didn't understand what to do and how. So I think that's one of the main reasons someone stops playing the game. It shouldn't be too hard and if it is, there should be at least tutorial. But that game wasn't so popular so there wasn't anyone else playing it and explaining. I like how you can skip some chase scenes in case it's too hard. Even though I skipped after first try. I could at least try to finish it lol.
I made some shorter games that I can recommend, although not all of them are horror games
Oddrieta is not very long, has like 4 endings (I can't remember) and it's pure horror. It's the second game I've ever made and it's one of my favorites, although it never received much attention

Your Voice in the Autumn Leaves is not a horror game, but it's a very special game for me, since I came up with the story while I received chemotherapy and it reflects my feelings about cancer. It's very short and plays like a visual novel

60 days till the world ends is a very strange game. It has some horror elements, but it's mostly a bizarre experience. It's one of my favorites and it's not very long. Most of the graphics are hand-drawn (by me)

And The Grotesque and Pixelesque is a short horror anthology with multiple endings

My favorite game of the ones I've made is actually Automagoria, but it's very long and it's more of sci-fi game than a horror game (it was also the first game I made and it took me about 4 months to complete it)
I was about to ask for recommendations, you read my mind! I check out all the games. Oddrieta sounds REALLY interesting. This wind which changes people and she is deaf. It's mysterious and it makes me want to find out what happened. Idk why it didn't get so much attention. However, you should still be grateful for all people who played it and left a comment to motivate you to continue! Ill play it as soon as I can, but until I get home, all I can do is make recommendations vids or something where I don't need to play the game. I ask my boyfriend to record parts of games and put it in video. I could make him record the whole game and then put my voice over it, but I didn't want to do that cuz I feel like it's not honest cuz I'm not the one playing + it wouldn't be fun. Rn I'm thinking of making best creators on itch Io or most interesting games orrrrrr adventure games... Ill see!
I read something about cancer in your bio, I think you're cancer free now (I'm not sure if I understood 100%). Honestly, it's really sad what happened to you, but you managed to stay positive and make a game out of it and inspire people :). One of my family members died a month ago from cancer and I got really scared and thoughts like "what of I get it". Now when I think about it and think about you it makes me feel better and I have a feeling if I get it I'll be okay. It doesn't mean I will, but it just makes me feel better knowing that at least you made it. I'll play the game too as soon as I can!
60 days until the world ends reminds me of one game where world end in 60 seconds and you get to kiss and kill people idk it's weird lol. And at the end scientist takes off your glasses and you realize it wasn't reality and your family and girlfriend were watching everything you've been doing lol. It was so funny. This is different tho, I have to play it too!
Last game also seems interesting, I like the sentence "festival of horror". It sounds interesting. Ill just play all of your games lol.
Thank you for recommendations I'd love to play all your games. I know you worked hard on them and I just love these types of game like pixel, horror... I'm glad even though they didn't get much attention A House for Alesa make up for it!
