A fun little visual novel! I especially enjoyed the scene featuring the titular Serial Killers Anonymous. It reminded me a lot of Finding Nemo's "Fish are friends, not food" scene with the sharks - so I had a smile on my face the entire time.
My favorite ending was the second, by the way. What can I say - I love tragedy...
Thanks for making this!
Thanks again for your feedback! :)
A fun horror game that places our protag Mikee in quite unfortunate circumstances! The UI was really fun to interact with (especially the basement part- where I was delighted to find that I can select the stairs, leading to my fave CG) and the story unravelled in a way that was engaging. The characters were written in a really compelling way- though if I had to pick a fave it would def have to be Pancho haha.
Great work team! ( ´ ▽ ` )
Thank you very much! Horror is one of the best genres for subjecting our characters to the most unfortunate situations, isn't it? We're so glad you enjoyed Pancho's character and the CG featuring him!
So much fun--this game really captures the feeling of watching a campy slasher flick with good friends and some popcorn! Mikee is a delightful and charming protagonist, Pancho immediately feels like a true-blue friend, Julia is alluring and unknowable, and the entire premise is so exceptionally well-balanced between suspense and entertainment. I really admire the crisp pacing of the story, and I found all three endings immensely satisfying in their own respective ways (I mean, I did see the first one coming when I decided to be uncooperative, haha). The UI is stylish and still clear and easy to navigate, and I adored the background art, which has texture that gives an attractive depth to the stark shapes and neon highlights. Overall, I found it far, far more fun than a life-or-death situation should reasonably be--excellent work!
Thanks again! :)
Brilliant idea and good execution!
Your graphics looks beautiful (with few exceptions). And your story intriguing from start to end.
I truly enjoyed playing it.
Thank you very much for taking the time to check out our entry! Much appreciated.
You can check our game, if you want :)
This was so fun! I really liked everything, the writting was so vivid and the characters quite colourfull. Mikee and Pancho, how can you not love them from minute 1? And everyone's designs, so good and funny!
As for the plot, hadn't been for the title? I would have never expected that, but still, all with medieval helmets? Nice touch. Also the music really went side by side with everything happening!
Thank you very much! Glad you enjoyed the experience. I've passed along your praise for the character designs and the music to my teammates!
The very second you open the game just *chef's kiss* that main menu/title screen is to die for <3 Really love it!
One of the early scenes reminded me of one of my favourite Dark Brotherhood quests in Elder Scrolls Oblivion, only far funkier :D
I, uh, didn't do so well on my first go and got ending 1, haha, but I like 'bad' endings, so I thought it was pretty epic :P Got ending 2 next, which I loved even more cos I was hoping that something along those lines was gonna be an option, so I was super stoked that it was, which is pretty fitting given the ending name x3 Gonna have to try and get the 3rd ending as well when I have more time!
From what I've seen without getting that ending, it's a lot of fun, the story is nifty, the art is awesome (the logo is so cool it's like something I would get tattooed if I were a super fan!), and I really like Mikee as an MC in general :3
Thank you! Happy you liked the endings you got, including the "worse" one! In any case, Mikee's in such a sticky situation that it would be unlikely for any of the endings to be unequivocally "good"! But Mikee's always trying her best!
I'm sure my teammates will be very pleased with your positive feedback about the art, logo, and main menu. Again, thank you very much for checking out our project!
Oh, believe me, I love sticky situations, and the darker the endings, the better :P Not that I have a problem with sweet & happy endings cos they can give me lovely fuzzies, haha. But I just gravitate towards the darker stuff, so this was right up my alley :D
In fact, that particular ending that I got the 2nd time around still stands as one of my favourite endings I've come across so far in what I've played from the jam <3 It's very rare I find a game that actually lets me do exactly what I would want to do if I were in the character's shoes, haha. It was such a satisfying ending, and I feel like it'll stick with me as a favourite ending for a long time! :3
The team is filled with horror fans so we do share the sentiment of enjoying deliciously dark endings to stories. <3
