Okay, time to address the elephant in the room: partial nudity and sexualization.
I just wanted to represent how over the top the 80's horror films were because, as you can probably tell, this is supposed to be a homage to 80's B-horror films (and they certaintly had a good amount of unnecessary showers, lack of clothing, etc). But I also wanted to show that, despite being humilliated and how vulnerable she might have looked, Alesa was a very strong person determined to overcome all these obstacles and escape (that's why she gets a shotgun and kills her tormentors).
It seems some people feel offended by these issues. If that's the case, or if Alesa's sprites ruined your experience/made you feel uncomfortable, I apologize for that. Perhaps I should have added a SFW mode, a censorship option, a different costume option or something like that. I'll definitely keep that in mind for my future games. However, I also understand that everyone is entitled to their oppinion and their preferences and that it's impossible to please everyone. So I guess in the end it boils down to: if this is not (or you believe it might not be) your cup of tea, you shouldn't play it. And always pay attention to the content warnings. On the other hand, if this is the type of content you expected and you enjoyed it...that' great and I'm happy for that!
Also, this game wasn't supposed to be taken seriously. I had a lot of laughs while I made it (it's too damn cheesy and some events don't make sense at all. And Alesa's legs look like chicken legs)
بعد انتهائي من المذاكرة فتحت يوتيوب واكتشفت لعبتك!مثيرة جدًا واعتبرت اكتشافها مثل مكافأة لي لأني استمتعت بها وأحببتها، بعض النهايات غير متوقعة بالنسبة لي
I really enjoyed your game, it's very well done! The OST and the design of the sprites of the characters also gave me Lisa vibes, in a positive sense xD
Wow! I feel honored! Thank you so much! I wouldn't say it's a 10/10 though, hahaha. I still have a lot to learn as a dev, and I definitely should have done more with the family members (and I feel Mr. Bob was underused). But still, it makes me really happy that you enjoyed it! Thank you! And great video! :)
trusted greta too many times... i dont know if its intetional, maybe im reading too much, but she kinda resembles alesa, killing her sounds like a methaphor for alesa leave her trauma behind, not getting stuck to a shadow of her past
anyway loved the game, the graphics are very unique, cant wait to see the next works!
Another great piece of grotesque and surreal horror by A. V. Dossow, you are truly getting better with each game, this one actually got me scared for a hot second there.
The story is really good as usual and the fact that is pseudo grounded on things that COULD happen makes it more unnerving. The main character this time around was really likable which ended up making things...worse, specially with the abundance of choices we can make and the consequences...(I loved the multiple endings and choices!)
Ending E: get the shotgun, kill the twins, kill the mother, kill Greta. Go to the second floor, to the stairs near the family pictures. It should take you to Mr. Bob's room
Ending F: get the shotgun, kill the family, but also have the ball and the holy candle in your inventory, and watch the videotape in the studio room (one of the rooms in the hallway where you were captured by the mother). Then go to Mr. Bob's room
When you watch the video tape, little Alesa says: "I want a new family, I want a new house". Mr. Bob was the one who recorded that video and wanted to grant Alesa her wish: a new house/family for Alesa.
I would say he's a demonic entity with limited reality warping powers who is obssesed with Alesa. His ultimate goal seems to be to turn Alesa into an amorphous blob and be with her forever...or at least until he gets bored of her and looks for another victim.
The inside of the house is actually in a different plane, that's why the police can't find anything.
I'm not sure myself though. And Mr. Bob might return in some of my next projects, who knows...

Thank you! Cool video, really funny!
I really enjoyed your game, it's very well done!

Thank you so much!
I love Lisa: the Painful, so I guess I was partly inspired by it
Oh my god, ending E must be my favorite. The developer took "don't let them know your next move" to another level. Loved the game!!
Thank you so much! :D
Nevermind it said in the intro :)
Hey you guys are there any jumpscares? Just wondering
Is there anywhere i can listen to the soundtrack alone? I really like the main hallway music and the eerie feeling it gives
Hello! I just uploaded the soundtrack. The main hallway music is called "Humanitarian" (track 5)
oh you are so amazing. thank you so much!
Great playthrough! Thank you so much! : D
🤍AMAZING GAME🖤
I cannot express how much I enjoyed playing it. I love the art style, the characters, and the story! 10/10! This game is so criminally underrated.Wow! I feel honored! Thank you so much! I wouldn't say it's a 10/10 though, hahaha. I still have a lot to learn as a dev, and I definitely should have done more with the family members (and I feel Mr. Bob was underused).

never mess with a social worker

Wow that's an amazing interpretation! I hadn't thought of that! But it actually makes a lot of sense. Nice!
Thank you! : D
This game could blow up and lore could def be abundant.
In hindsight, I think the family is underused, specially Mr. Bob. But I could bring back the family (or just Mr. Bob) in another game, who knows!
Excellent game! Had an issue with the piano not picking up the combination but otherwise amazing!
Thank you so much!
I hope you still managed to complete the puzzle despite the problem with the piano keys
yep! we got all 6 endings. Rec'ed to my other streamer friends. Can't wait to see what you make in the future.
Thank you so much! : )

And that message after Game Over...it hurts.
Keep up the good work!
Hikiyami Moriko, thank you so much for your feedback and your support! Your playthroughs with commentaries are not only awesome but also very helpful!
Finally the dialogue between alesa e mr bob
Macabre aesthetics and interesting history!
One of the coolest and most fun RPG maker horror games I've ever played!
Woow! Thank you so much for your words! Great playthrough! : D

les go
Very good game
Thank you so much! Great playthrough!
My pleasure
Yeah! I got all endings!
Awesome! :D
scary game
Thank you for playing! : )
***The game has been updated. Fixed some typos and now you don't need to watch the video tape to get ending F.
I must say, when I see how fast you're making your games - it's so inspiring!
Thank you so much! : D
I got endings from A to D, how to get other 2?
I found password, but what is it for? TvT
******SPOILERS*******
Ending E: get the shotgun, kill the twins, kill the mother, kill Greta. Go to the second floor, to the stairs near the family pictures. It should take you to Mr. Bob's room
Ending F: get the shotgun, kill the family, but also have the ball and the holy candle in your inventory, and watch the videotape in the studio room (one of the rooms in the hallway where you were captured by the mother). Then go to Mr. Bob's room
********************************************
Ok
Now I got all endings, but still don't understand - who's mister Bob? What's his connection with Alesa? And a lot more:>
When you watch the video tape, little Alesa says: "I want a new family, I want a new house". Mr. Bob was the one who recorded that video and wanted to grant Alesa her wish: a new house/family for Alesa.
I would say he's a demonic entity with limited reality warping powers who is obssesed with Alesa. His ultimate goal seems to be to turn Alesa into an amorphous blob and be with her forever...or at least until he gets bored of her and looks for another victim.
The inside of the house is actually in a different plane, that's why the police can't find anything.
I'm not sure myself though. And Mr. Bob might return in some of my next projects, who knows...
Oh, that's more or less what I suspected:) But why was he waiting 18 years?
again??!!! what the fI mean - new game, yeaahhhh!!!
