Notice: If you intend to play the win/mac version, don't overwrite the Chapter 1 folder with the new files, or you might not be able to play Chapter 2. You need to dowload the specific win/mac version of Chapter 2, extract it in a new folder and execute the "game" file in that folder. This is a different project than Chapter 1.

TL;DR: don't overwrite the Chapter 1 folder with the files from Chapter 2. Download Chapter 2 (either win or mac) and play from the corresponding Chapter 2 folder. This obviously doesn't apply to the browser version (which is also the only way to play on your phone; directly from the browser)

Notice 2: chapter 1 is also included in case you want to replay it, but you can skip straight to Chapter 2.

Notice 3: Thank you for playing, you're awesome!

The story is about to get reaaaally crazy!

(+1)

Awesome gameplay swift3dge! : D Thank you so much for playing! I'm glad you've enjoyed the game so far!
Chapter 3 is almost finished, so it might be released sooner than expected!

(+1)

LETSFREAKINGGOOOOOOO! I mean...sounds good! You're welcome and of course! It's been so awesome!

very epic

(+2)

I've played Mauseleosus and now the first two chapters of Julia Was Alone, and I gotta say you really know how to create a spooky atmosphere. I had fun playing this game and there were some parts where my heart rate went crazy. I love the whole atmosphere of this game with the pixelation and the color palette as well as the puzzles and labyrinths that got me feeling so lost at times. Great game and I'm so excited for the third chapter. :)

(+1)

Thank you so much for your feedback and for the compliments, I really appreciate it! : D One of my goals with Julia was Alone was to create an eerie/oppressive atmophere, and certainly it hasn't been an easy task, considering the limited palette and "cute" sprites. So I'm glad I've managed to achieve that atmosphere, at least for some players!
Hopefully, Chapter 3 won't be a let down! It'll be double the length of this one and there will be many surprises, new characters, new areas and grotesque imagery

(+2)

Thanks for taking the time to reply! I can tell you care a lot about your work and it really shows! I'm excited to see what you have in store for the third chapter!

dont play house for alisa 1(original not remake)

(+1)

Well that escalated. 😅 It was closer to 50 minutes for me which I was very happy with and it all plays really well, awesome use of RPG Maker - It's a great engine so I appreciate seeing people get creative/weird with it. Looking forward to Chapter 3! 🙌

Just finished watching the video, it was awesome! Thank you so much for playing and for the feedback Mana, much appreciated!

I always want to try new ideas when using Rpg Maker, specially with just variables instead of complex plugins. It's amazing how limited and yet flexible the software can be. I'll definitely try out new gameplay mechanics for the third chapter (already working on it; I hope it turns out to be the best one of the Julia series)

I REALLY REALLY like the direction this game is going keep up the good work!

 EXCITED FOR CHAPTER 3

Thanks for playing, awesome gameplay! : D
I'm currently working on Chapter 3 and I hope it turns out to be as enjoyable as chapters 1 and 2!

Chapter 2 is so crazy. I love this narrative, now I cant wait for part.

My buen trabajo me gusto mucho :D !!

(+1)

Muchas gracias por jugarlo y por el gameplay! Me alegra que te haya gustado la historia hasta el momento! : D
El capítulo 3 se supone que va a ser todavía más loco!

(+1)

Maaaaaas?! Pues entonces si que dare una voltera hacia atrás ajajj

This was amazing! I am so invested in this storyline. Again amazing artstyle and atmosphere! 


Fr. Barbathiel's sprite is bad-ss by the way.

Thank you so much! : D
Father Barbathiel is one of my favorites, so I'm glad you like him! He'll have an important role in Chapter 3

I LOVE this game.

I was really interested in Chapter 1, and eager to see where the story would go. Chapter 2 provides us with an incredibly lore dense experience, and put a lot of pieces together in this world, whilst simultaneously creating new questions to be answered.

Excited for chapter 3! I'm hooked :)

I watched your gameplay, it was really fun, great commentary!
Thank you so much, I really appreciate it! : D Chapter 3 is already in progress!

Oh wow thanks so much! Keep up the great work!

SPOILERS AHEAD!








I feel bad for that annormal kid. He is trapped by mom, has mental problems, and given a scalpel to kill his dad. Mom is the real maniac.

hi❤️

Cool gameplay! Thank you so much for playing! 

thank you!!

That was great ! I need chapter 3 !!

Thank you! : D

I like this eerie art and story! Wait for more)

Thanks!

Nice game! The story is getting more interesting & makes me curious. Looking forward to chapter 3... :)

Awesome! : D Thank you so much for playing!
Hopefully, Chapter 3 will be even better!

Look Av isn't complaining anymore I liked your games more when you released the game and the characters had big breasts and big butts that was the fun of the game but were you trying to change the style of your games maybe? the 2 games you launched are great, thanks Av I admire you =[ awesome ♥️

Thank you for your support!

I don't know what to be shocked about first. a lot of things make me surprised.

Ohhh, awesome video! Thank you for playing! : D
There'll be even more surprises in the next chapter!

Omg I didn't expect all this lore when I played the first chapter 🤩

It will get even crazier next chapter!

As per usual of an A. V. Dossow game, this absolutely slaps, really really loved it. Wasn't expecting the twist at the end with the mother. Can't wait for your future games! All our love <3

(+1)

Ohhh thank you so much for your words and your support, I really appreciate it! : D
I'm glad that most players were shocked by that revelation!

Simplemente increíble, no esperaba para nada los giros que esta dando la historia, espero con ansias el capítulo 3

Muchas gracias por jugar Kaba! : D
El 3 va a tener todavía más giros y van a responderse muchas preguntas y habrá nuevas mecánicas de juego (no algo drástico, pero la idea es que los capítulos vayan agregando cosas nuevas)

(+1)

I really love the story so far! I'm sure chapter 3 will be an absolute blast!

(+1)

Thank you so much! : D I'm glad you're enjoying the story so far! In Chapter 3, things will get even crazier!

(+1)

Thank you so much for the compliments, I really appreciate it! : D

A decir verdad me ví el primer capitulo por NicoCore, pero me enganchó tanto que cuando ví que habia salido el segundo cap no me pude resistir a jugarlo, estoy esperando con muchisimas ansias en tercero!!

Un grande Nico!
Gracias por jugar! Ya estoy trabajando en el tercero

Another Amazing Chapter. Can't Wait to play chapter 3! :D

(+1)

I watched your gameplay Llama! Thank you so much! : D

(+1)

por fin salió el cap 2!!!

tuve mucho miedo en la parte donde está la otra julia y cuando nos damos la vuelta levanta la manita, pero me preparó mentalmente para cuando sí se levantó a perseguir AKAKAKJ.

sufrí bastante en la parte donde se tiene que huir un minuto del loquito pero no me rendí.

y el final me dejó súper picada! espero con ansias el próximo capítulo<3.

(+1)

Muchas gracias por jugarlo! : D
Y está muy bueno saber de tu experiencia con el juego en esos momentos que se supone son los más tensos y que deberían generar miedo en los jugadores!
Me alegra mucho que te haya gustado! Ya mismo estoy trabajando en el capítulo 3 jajjaja

I was throughly traumatized by the end- this chapter was so good!!

(+1)

Thank you! : D I'm glad you enjoyed the chapter and it managed to freak you out a bit hahaha

(+1)

Good game

(+1)

Awesome! Thank you Bis! : D

(+1)

Scalpel :)


Very good followup chapter I loved it! 

Clock! I was actually watching your stream last night, hidden in the shadows hahahhaa
It was really fun! Thank you so much for having played it! : D

OMG I'm glad you enjoyed it!!!

(+3)

Solid chapter 2, a lot of lore revealed, a few questions answered and a lot more surface, gameplay wise is about as expected from any quality horror RPGmaker game + that new door mechanic that is really nice, love it.

------Spoilers ahead------

I was not expecting the story to go the "satanic cult" route, feels like a lot of games go that route lately, although I am now wondering if it's related to the cults seen in other A.V Dossow games; I feel like the narrative really benefits from this chaptered story telling because the cliffhangers and reveals are so good in this chapter 2.

I personally would like to see more environmental story telling instead of notes and, I am not sure if I did something wrong but having so many options in the PC menu that do nothing feels kinda like a waste (or maybe I am just too spoiled by other games that have amazing functioning PCs...).

The monsters are superB as usual and that final confrontation was really creative, I absolutely love that kind of thing where the fight is not a straight up fight.

Overall great quality, you guys work so well together, can't wait for the next part.

Keep up the good work!

(+2)

As always, thank you so much for playing Moriko!
Your suggestions are highly welcomed and valuable!

The easter eggs or rewards for exploring would have been nice, so that definitely was a wasted opportunity.The options in the PC were more like a way to show what's going on in that place (and to explain some aspects of Chapter 1, like weird entities).

I reckon the first 2 Chapters feel pretty linear, but that will change in the next Chapter, where players will be able to get a first batch of bad endings and there'll be more exploration (I felt that the linearity in the first 2 chapters was necessary so the story could progress faster, since they were more of an introduction to the world of Julia).

The discs were necessary because Julia was alone in the lab (save for the mutants and the robots), but Chapter 3 will be quite dense in terms of dialogue (I'm already working on Chapter 3 and some dialogs are ready; hopefully, they will flesh out Julia as a character and reveal more about her personality).

There's still a lot of story to tell, so Chapter 3 will probably be much longer (although not too much, since that would affect the flow of the episodic releases) and have more crazy revelations and new gameplay features!

(+1)

Loved this chapter as well...The last part erased the line between simulation and reality...can't wait to play the next chapter!!!

Thank you! : D
I reckon at times it can be quite confusing, but there's a reason for every scene and there's actually a clear timeline. But the simulation from chapter 1 is officially over, at least for this Julia

(+1)

At least for this Julia... It sounds creepy man... 

(+2)

loved chapter 2. looking forward to the next chapter. i made a video 

Ohhh thank you so much for playing!
Great job on the voices hahaha! Really enjoyable gameplay! : D

(1 edit) (+2)

man the 1 minute thing is too tough ughhhhhhh

edit: i did it finally! completed the chapter. waiting for the next one!!!!

Hahaha and originally it was even harder! Scalpel was faster, the scene lasted 3 minutes instead of 1 and the lights went off during 10 seconds each time

thank you for making it easier because i just know i wouldn't be able to clear it T-T

(1 edit) (+2)

This is very intriguing! I saw Chapter 1 on YouTube, am glad to find Chapter 2 here to play myself. Looking forward to see how the story will resolve.

PS: if you get the chance play the downloadable version. It runs much smoother than the webversion.

(+1)

Thank you so much! : D
There'll probably be 2 more chapters, and in the next one, things will get even crazier

(+3)

Muito bom o jogo novamente, tô bastante curioso pra ver onde que a história vai terminar.

(+1)

Muito obrigado por jogar! :D O vídeo ficou ótimo! Que bom que você gostou do novo capítulo!

(+2)

This was really cool. Its very much like House for Alessa but I like the different twist and developement.

Thank you, I really appreciate it! : D

(+3)

You're doing the chapter structure pretty well so far. Felt like we learned just enough new info to keep it interesting and I can't wait for chapter 3!

Thank you so much! : D Theres's still a lot of new information to be learned in the following chapter (or chapters)!
