Moriko! Thank you so much for playing and for the playthrough!

I actually started this project months ago, even before the bigfoot game, but I had abandoned it as I had no idea of what to do with it. I finally decided to turn the project into something playable and decent and this came out.

I agree that some of the mechanics definitely are underused, like the ethereal clock or the closets. I even thought of adding some sort of combat mechanics, but I didn't really want this game to be too long. 

This was supposed to more of a short spiritual succesor to "A House for Alesa" (even though I have more Alesa games planned for 2025). I think it definitely has some of the vibes from the first Alesa game ( and Imelda is pretty much a Greta ripoff) but the game itself is definitely on a smaller scale.

I also agree that it lacks a certain punch. Like, I'm happy with the atmosphere, sprites, music, aesthetics, death scenes, etc, but after replaying it, it definitely feels like it needed something more to really feel complete. Perhaps a better antagonist (like Mr. Bob), documents (or VHS tapes that explained certain things, as you mentioned) or more detailed endings. I guess I was also a bit out of ideas at this time of the year, specially after the "Julia was Alone" saga.

I'll also keep in mind the outfits suggestion for future projects (being able to alternate between them in-game). People enjoyed that in A House for Alesa 3, I definitely should have taken a bit more time and implemented it here as well.

Anyways

As always, thank you so much for playing the game and your feedback, Moriko! I'll definitely come back with more games next year hahahha

Have a great 2025!
