Новая жизнь. Новый город. Новые знакомые.
Ты просто хотела учиться и рисовать… Но оказалась втянута в пугающее расследование.
В городе происходят странные исчезновения. Твои сны становятся кошмарами. Кто-то из близких тебе людей уже не тот, за кого себя выдаёт. Кто-то... Очень тщательно следит за тобой.
Останешься ли ты собой… Или позволишь злу приблизиться слишком близко?
_____
A new life. A new city. New acquaintances. You just wanted to learn and draw.… But she found herself embroiled in a frightening investigation. Strange disappearances are happening in the city. Your dreams become nightmares. Someone close to you is no longer who they say they are. Somebody... He's watching you very carefully. Will you stay yourself... or will you let evil get too close?
Особенности визуальной новеллы:
1. Сюжет с двойным дном - на первый взгляд сюжет кажется вполне себе понятным, но чем больше погружаешься - тем больше трещит по швам начальное видение.
2. 50+ выборов, которые будут иметь последствия.
3. Возможность выйти на различные ветки отношений с персонажами.
4. В демо версии имеется как минимум четыре концовки.
5. Элементы необычной игровой механики и моменты тонкого разрыва "четвёртой стены" (совсем чуточку)
6. Нестандартный подход к структуре демо-версии - это не просто "введение" в историю, а цельный и насыщенный отрезок истории.
7. Новелла для тех, кто любит копаться в деталях - небольших и малозаметных деталей очень много, что будут влиять на ваши теории и догадки.
______
Features of the visual novel:
1. A plot with a double bottom - at first glance, the plot seems quite understandable, but the more you immerse yourself, the more the initial vision bursts at the seams.
2. 50+ choices that will have consequences.
3. The opportunity to enter into various branches of relationships with characters.
4. There are at least four endings in the demo version.
5. Elements of unusual game mechanics and moments of subtle breaking of the "fourth wall" (just a little bit)
6. An unconventional approach to the structure of the demo version - is not just an "introduction" to the story, but a complete and rich segment of the story.
7. A novel for those who like to delve into details - there are a lot of small and inconspicuous details that will influence your theories and guesses.

Downloaded this last month after seeing the advertisement on tiktok and I just want to say I. am. HOOKED! The number of outcomes there are based on the choices you choose is amazing, your choices really do feel like they matter, and I'm obsessed with constantly playing just to find dialogue and scenes I've missed. It's so refreshing to see how many different paths you can take. The suspense is also hooking me as well; I want to find out what's happening SOOO bad. Especially the problem-solving puzzle near the end of the demo. You're storytelling is amazing! Every character holds a certain place in my heart, I absolutely LOVED trying to romance all of them. I could go on a whole tangent about what I love about this game and how excited I am for more in the future, but it would be never ending. Do you have a discord server for this game at all? I would LOVE to join if so!
Thank you sooo much for your opinion! I am very glad to hear that you liked it)
unfortunately, there is no discord server for a moment(((
"...she was squinting like a chinese person.." What? 😭 I'm enjoying the game so far but I want to let you know that could come off as very offensive. You could choose to change the dialogue or not but as an asian it does just come off a little stereotypical;; :(
thanks for your comment. I appreciate you sharing your opinion.
this phrase was written on behalf of the main character herself. she is not a "morally pure" storyteller, and some of her thoughts reflect her flaws, stereotypes, internalized biases, and etc.
As an author, I do not support or agree with such views. I didn't want to make fun of or offend any ethnic group, but I understand that it could be offensive. I'll think about how I can rephrase the text more correctly.
Of course. Thanks for understanding!
I'm aware you want to portray the MC a certain way, but I think focusing on her flaws in handling relationships around her with other characters is a better way to go about it. Since the game mostly revolves around the MC and these relationships with the new people around her, there's no reason to bring a racial group in and throw comments towards their way. I don't understand why China is repeatedly mentioned unless there's a large influence of this country in the setting, while no other groups are mentioned at all. I think it's unneccessary for development of the game and plot, and could come off as problematic.
Of course this is your game. I'm not one to talk. I can barely code lol. Just some input from a player of your game hehe. :")
let me tell you, i've been playing for hours and i can't get enough !! i'm so glad i saw your tiktok on the game. i'm not finished yet but i can't wait to see where you're taking us ! truly amazing, i have no words !

THEORY WHICH MIGHT BE A SPOILER
i can't shake the feeling that Sarah hides something from us. like i can't help but think she might have some form of control over our environment/our perception of the other characters and that she tries to make us do what she wants. i've had the feeling since early in the game i thought i was crazy but the more i'm advancing and the more suspicions i have ! i can't wait to finish the demo to see if i'm right, and if it's not confirmed/denied yet, can't wait to see the rest of the game, i'm so excited !!! :D
Wow, thanks for your comment! And good luck in continuing the story and developing new theories. :)
hey it's me again. i'm absolutely loving the game, it's been amazing so far!
SPOILER AND QUESTION
I do have the code but it's still wrong when i put it, what am i missing? i've been searching for hours, plz help !!! :')
Hello again!
I understand where the confusion with the code came from.
SPOILERS!

First, you had to find three things - a note with numbers, a key, and a flash drive, followed by the right office.
If you tried to enter numbers, that's not exactly how this puzzle works. The code is not a numerical combination but a specific sequence of letters.
The game hints that the main character cannot (or does not want to) handle it alone, so the solution expects you to intervene. Some things are not meant to be solved strictly in the game itself - they are meant to be noticed and interacted with on your own, after finding them in the game files.
If you understand the above hint and have reached the text files themselves, pay special attention to the order in which you read the text files and how some letters stand out when viewed correctly. The last file "E" contains another hint about the format or way to enter the letters... I can't find the right word to explain it.
Sometimes, a single glance is enough to understand how the fragments fit together.
Omg thank you so much !! I really suck with computers so i hope i'll be able to find and understand but your explanations truly help !! Thanks a lot, i'll come back when i'll get it (and also if i don't lol)
Wow, I literally have no words. Everything about this game is so amazing: the storyline, the details, the build up, I love it soooo much. Wonderful wooork<3
thank you!
This is my first time writing a comment, but I’m absolutely in love with this game! I haven’t finished it yet, but I can’t wait for more. No spoilers, but it's just amazing :3
thank you!
This game is awesome. I can't fully describe how good it is without giving spoilers, but I can say it’s amazing. I can’t wait for future updates.
thank you!
Oh my god, this game is amazing! The events are moving at a great pace, and the drama and the routes are blowing my mind! I'm completely engrossed in the story. God, this is a truly suspenseful game. Just one question: when we go to Oliver's house and MC goes into the living room, the game crashes. Is that part still in development? Aside from that, I'm going to actively follow this wonderful project!
Thanks for the feedback! I noticed an error in the novel - the problem is in the code, but it's easily fixable. if a white window with an error description pops up, just click the "Ignore" button.
Thanks for replying, I'm having a different problem; in that part the game freezes for a few seconds and then closes. I don't get the white error screen, it just crashes. But I'm really enjoying the other routes!^°^✓
