I'm enjoying this a lot so far! The game has a sad and not quite right atmosphere that I love.
(Mild spoilers)
I got stuck with a silver key and a ripped photo in my inventory after opening the diary in the room and checking the radio again. I *think* I've checked everything twice again, so I was wondering if you were planning on including hints somewhere. Otherwise, I'll most likely figure it out if I pick it up again with fresh eyes in a while. Thank you for sharing your game!
Thank you! I'm glad that you like the atmosphere of the game! ^^
There's no explicit hint at that part, but if you're stuck I can provide one here. (Spoiler)
After checking the radio again, a new item can be interacted with, so it won't be something that you've seen a message for before. (Look for something in a room that is suspicious or odd!) When you find that new item/message, there will be another message attached to something you have checked before to let you proceed.
Thank you very much! It was smooth sailing after your hint helped me. That was a very cool game; I loved starting with zero information and piecing it all together.
I’m glad the hint was helpful and you were able to finish the game! Thanks for playing and enjoying it! ^^
Thank you so much!
Hi! I played this game a few months ago and decided to play through it again, just for the nostalgia. Even in my first playthrough, I absolutely loved everything about it. Aside the story, one thing that really struck with me was the soundtrack. I tried shazam but got no results, so i decided to make a video of it and post it on YouTube in case somebody else wants to listen to it. Before posting it, I thought it'd be best if I got permission from you first. I don't know whether it's an ost or if it was just part of the rpgmaker audio package, so I don't know who to give credits to in case I post it. I found it on the audio files under the name of "Track 2" which led me to think that it's part of the rpgmaker audio package... I uploaded it on Dropbox for you to check out: https://www.dropbox.com/s/drualtowenfhn8j/You%2C%20Me%2C%20and%20the%20All-engul..
Hello! Again, thanks for enjoying the game and music! The soundtrack was something I made on a music-making app, and you're free to post it if you want! I'm glad you liked it ^^
It has been uploaded! Here's the link in case you wanna check it out. If you find any problems with the video lmk, I'll make changes or delete it if needed. Thank you very much! I'm looking forward to more of your work in the future.
No problem and thanks for the support!
I enjoy the game so far but I'm stuck on the book part
possible spoiler warning
I think the calendar means 70 but i don't know what the rest of the book code is uwa
I’m glad you’re enjoying the game so far! Hint: the book code is made up of the 7 and another marking on the calendar put together.
I've been assuming it's the 7 and the Y making 70(seventy) is that not it?
The Y is not the hint, but the arrow pointing in that direction is. Think about what else it could mean.
honestly I'm pretty stuck QvQ
(Spoiler)
The arrow is pointing at February.
I loved the game!! I still have to play again as I was not able to open the book in the basement. >.<
I'm wondering tho, who is that shadowy guy??? I'm 10000% curious!!
Thank you and I'm glad you enjoyed it! If you are able to open the book and get the happy ending, then you will find out who the shadow is. ^^ (If you get the other ending, it is a little less clear, but the answer should still reveal itself.)
Ooohh okay! I'll do my best to get the true ending. Thank you so much for responding!
To the person who left a rating recently, I couldn't find a way to respond directly, but I wanted to reply, so I am posting this here. Thank you very much for your feedback, and I'm glad you enjoyed the game! The story was something I wanted players to explore, beyond simply completing the game, so it was nice to hear your opinion on it. You caught on to everything so quickly haha ^^ (To answer your question, although I do not have an Original on Line Webtoon, I have posted on Canvas.)
Hi yes that was me lmao
If you don't mind, I'd love to read your work! Judging by your story writing & character design it must be amazing.
Lovely custom art and sad but interesting short story, reminds me of Forest of Drizzling Rain a little. Also VX Ace Lite, cool. Though there’s the limitations like the radio being a window and a few minor event errors like the door opening when you interact with it or only being able to check objects from certain directions. But a really good effort for a first game. Just one more thing, I’m struggling to find the page number for the book in the basement, I’ve checked everything thrice but I’m still stumped. Can you help me?
Thank you for your feedback! For the book in the basement, revisit all of the numerical hints (marks). Try the numbers that you have not used! (Hint: the formatting calls for four numbers, but the hint is written in fewer numbers.)
Thank you very much for playing and giving feedback! The video was very entertaining to watch. ^^ (If you are interested in finishing it, try rechecking some of the items. Messages may change or appear.)
You're welcome and thank you!
