I just finished watching the entire video!
As always, another amazing video by Hikiyami Moriko! I have to say: I really enjoyed when you got surprised by David's mother and the zombie hahahaha
I was really worried of going back to pure horror games, because my latest games have been so different. Like, maybe I can't make pure horror anymore and I'm doomed to make random bizarre games forever. But it seems I still can make some spoopy stuff!
And Kazu's art is absolutely amazing, their illustrations take the game to a whole other level and I'm really happy to have worked with such an amazing artist! Kazu also helped with the story and the characters, specially with Iris (Iris was a pretty blank character but Kazu gave her a backstory and suggested adding inner thoughs and more dialogs, which was a great addition to the plot)
I really appreciate you took the time to play a second time to get the other endings, thank you so much! My games tend to have instant endings through a choice at the end, but this time I wanted to make something different. I'm really glad you liked the variations regarding the choices you make. Like, for example, the flashback with the model. If you're nice to Iris, that flashback seems pointless, but if you're cruel, and you already know what David does, it makes a lot of more sense.
I reckon some puzzles were pretty random and had nothing to do with the plot hahaha, like that final moving puzzle. I was losing my inspiration for puzzles and there were few days left for the deadline.
I don't think I'll continue this story, but I do want to keep making more games similar to this one: pure horror, hidden details, variations regarding choices, stories that need to be pierced through different playthroughs, etc.
By the way, that really cheap scare near the end, the guy that appears at random, he's supposed to be David's father, the leader of the cult. He only appears if you read the entry mentioning him, that's why he didn't appear in your second playthrough.
Thanks again Moriko, I really enjoyed watching the playthrough and your feedback is very valuable as always!
And sorry about the rats hahahhaa (there are like 100 rats in the game)
