NOOOOO I NEED TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS. My interpretation is that something she did accidentally led to her parent's death. She repressed this, which is why she always seems so calm, despite the monster and everything else. It's the only way she can process this as a child. Since then, she's just been feeding this "monster" hoping for it to go away, rewarding herself for making it through the day without actually moving forward. Eventually, this monster threatens to take off its mask. She believes herself to be the monster. She isn't one, but she can't understand this. Honestly, great job on the story telling. Embry's design communicated so much. She was very non-chalant, just sort of existing. The only emotions were pangs of anxiety and guilt. So great job on the character design! Thank you for sharing your talent!
Conheci esse jogo pelo Theux, e realmente é bom, bem sinistro e "triste" o jogo.
SUPER RECOMENDO!, se você está procurando terror suspense e mistérios, tá aí uma obra boa para te entreter 😎👍.
scary, sad and good. I enjoyed this!
plss make it browser play so chrome users can play ;(
Es muy buen juego, me gusta mucho el estilo de dibujo y su historia aunque sea triste. Si quieres un juego que no dure mucho este es ideal ヾ(•ω•`)o
It is a very good game, i really like the drawing style and its story, even thought it is sad. If you want a game that doesn't last long, this is ideal.
Amazing game! It was nice to see a nonbinary character too! 10/10!
Yooo, jeżeli polski działa to I love u sm!!!!
<3<3<3<3<
SPOILER!!! I REALLY LIKED THE DOCTOR, i was really shocked when we pushed him in. I do wonder what would've happened if we let him 'help' us though. Also, the "THANKS FOR PLAYING" Art was ADORABLEEE!!, I love their height difference.
Good game.
lov this game bro and also dark i feel bad for her wish i could took care of her such a cute game lov the artstyle i would lov to play another game by the same artist
I'd recommend using proton over the Linux builds for this game cause the Linux application formats are terrible right now (and this game doesn't work because of it, but its hardly the dev's fault). Maybe in the future Linux will have a better format but for now just use proton. (Add the windows executable: Game.exe as a non-steam game, then force compatibility tools.)
If you want to make the game playable for Linux users natively, I recommend the AppImage format, it works basically the same as the macOS .app format for your purposes.
I tried to play the game in Spanish but it always crashes, and when I log back in, I can't load what I saved previously. I tried to pin the game to the windows bar so this doesn't happen but upon entering, a gray screen that says NW.JS pops up and I cant play, It's a shame because I love the game. Is there anything I can do to fix it?
the game is fun
Dr. D. Light my beloved <3
MAN! Ik we get like a few minutes of Dr. D. Light but he's my fav tbh! He's just so happy and willing to help others
I love the doctor. But I need answers now! What the hell was that thing in the basement? D: I really liked this game, otherwise.
Hello author! Do you allow me to translate this game into Chinese? Although this may take some time. If you agree, how can I send you the translated game? (The above is the result of machine translation)
First of all, I LOVE your art style. Secondly, I need answers! Jokes aside, this game has created a truly unsettling atmosphere that I really appreciate
Hey! I've seen this game online and thought I would check it out. MacOS user and I can't get the game to open, even when following your steps. The folder nwjs is just a bunch of code lines. Having the same problem w/ the game Crow scare. Could download/open Cemetary Mary fine tho. Any tips?
Wonderful game, i mean delightful.
Amazing game
I wonder if this could be made EASYRPG compatible so that it can be played on mobile? I did see it was on arcadespot, but the sound wasn't working there :(
Please do not support websites that stole my game. Arcadespot does not have permission to upload my game to their site.
o shit, screw them then! I did not know that. That sucks, sorry to hear it! Won't be supporting that site going forward then
You can play it in JoiPlay, it's an rpg maker emulator for phones(it just doesn't work on iPhone), just search the website and download it, I play several rpg makers there(even Dead Plate) and played this one there too :D
emm,非常好,但我需要中文。
IM CRYING I HAVENT SEEN THIS GAME IN YEARSS
LMAO
THIS IS SO AWESOME
Cool!
hey you can kind of clip out of bounds if you walk right walking down the staircase, I did this on complete accident so

Thank you thank you for this game I had so much fun and here is my gameplay
/// СПОЙЛЕРЫ ///
А какой по итогу сюжет?
Чел с ума сошёл, грохнул родителей и упёк трупы в подвал? И он придумал себе оправдание, что они в монстров превратились?
Если это так, то как бы мда...
how do you play?
tap game.exe then extract all
HOLA! si a este juego le pudiese dar calificación, sería un 10/10 :D
PD: pobre doctor... ojalá poder evitar su muerte :c
Этот мужчина клоун такой классный, он мне так понравился, но !!!СПОЙЛЕР так жалко его было в конце😭
