Hahahaha and that's not all. The typewritter and the phonograph, as well as photographs, were invented maaaany years after the year this game takes place in, so yeah, this game has pretty much no historical accuracy at all. It's all about the schlock, specially since it was mostly inspired by other schlock media.
That specific twist near the end....uhhh...yeah. It wasn't my original intention, but I had to do it to avoid getting the game removed or something

Thanks for your quick response!
Not to worry on that front, though. We all do a lot of Inaccurate History hiccups considering that I have a series that *should* be set in the 1980's but I try to add so many modern things that were more hip and trending in the 90's that my collab partner has a massive field day with me (note: I didn't grow up in the 80's while my collab partner did.)
But yeah, that B-movie schlock is something I hope to strive for in a future game! Lmfao. Honestly ignoring the whole 'Adoptive Daughter groomed into a Surrogate Wife' angle that might have been hinted at more earlier on, I was down for the endings where Mia just runs off to marry a farmer and start a family of her own. It's very cute and honestly I'm glad you gave players the choice to do that! The ending I think was the coolest though was the 'descendants becoming vampires' which many are hoping pops up in a spin-off of sorts. I would play it for sure!
The vampirism ending is the canon one and it's supposed to be the best. Actually, Mia will come back for A House for Alesa 3, as a vampire who helps Alesa. Pinocchio and Gepetto will be some sort of bosses, and Alesa will be able to kick Gepetto's gigantic cake (he deserves it, I hate that guy). So yeah, the Pinocchiogoria cast will be back really soon
By the way, once I have free time, I'll be sure to play and rate your entry for the jam!
