LMAO XD I can see why there are 30 games in total for this year's madvent calendar. Just played Day 25 - Merry Crisis and (spoilers?) I frickin love the storyline that is happening here with Bitey, Gifty, and the whole city and how the main hub of the game itself actually auto-updates to show what's going on. Now, the rest of the games up until Day 30 are available to play in order to see how the in-game storyline concludes for this year's madvent calendar.
Oh, and Merry Christmas to everyone!
See, that's the kind of vibe I got from Peace on Earth when the ending cutscene rolled around. (Spoilers, probably) looking at the color of the Earth itself and how the main character just kind of had a lack of enthusiasm in saying "Merry Christmas... everyone..." makes it seem like there's some sort of hellish scenario going on in this game entirely. Nice take on the horror aspect of indie games.
Anyways, kudos to you OctalOtter on this submission and kudos to you Vladimere for organizing this entire project as well. This is a one of a kind type of Christmas gift for the whole itch.io community :)
Dude, that's great to hear that you're making a continuation of the story about what's going on in Peace on Earth. Really left me in shock and confusion as to what I even witnessed in game itself. Can't wait for the next (installment?) HPS1 game when all the pieces are in place and the anticipation for the story of Peace on Earth doesn't leave me hanging when early 2023 arrives. Also, nice job on the execution/cliffhanger vibes (maybe?) that Peace on Earth gave off overall. Really sets the tone of the setting/plot of the game as a whole.
Day 18 - Peace On Earth had me really intrigued with the plot/story of the game itself. (Trying not to give any spoilers here) What happened to Amara? What kind of circumstances are the characters even talking about? What happened to planet Earth? And what is the severity that this situation poses on the setting of the game?
I mean, it's not like much crucial information is given when the player interacts with other characters, which leaves so many questions unanswered, but still leaves the game up to (maybe?) interpretation or so.
If there's even a true answer as to what is going in this game, I'd be highly interested in knowing and I would really appreciate as well.
Yeah, that kinda confused me as well, but I thought part of the dialogue said to collect all of the gifts around town from every character on day 1 and the go back to your house and rest and then start to give everyone their proper gifts for day 2. You don't give each character their gifts when you collect all the gifts on the first day, which is why the "talk" option doesn't work after the player has the items each character wants in this case for day 1 because it was probably intentionally designed like that.
I don't know what's up with Day 6 - Petra Theos, but, to me, it seems like this game is kinda unfinished cause:
1. When I clicked on the strange rock and tried going back to the house, I thought of letting myself get captured by the floating dark humanoid figure that chases the player during that sequence. When the floating dark figure got to me, it didn't do anything at all and just basically walked into me without any new screen popping up or any indication of the figure "capturing" me.
2. There's no way to move, interact, or advance in that area sequence with the white void and the two rocks. It just stays like that for seemingly forever, and I've seen some peeps down in the comment section that have gone through this same experience as well.
So, again, not sure what's going on here, but I hope that this game gets updated or fixed in the end. If not, then I guess I can live with that reality as well.
Apologies for spoilers or for anything of that nature, but:
When washing the dishes, choose the "Hannah threatened to betray a friend's confidence" choice.
When doing the laundry, choose the "Nancy didn't want to be branded a snitch, so she lied to preserve her confidence" choice.
When turning off all the electric candles, choose the "it's always important to be truthful to others" choice.
When putting away the video games + console, choose the "keeping the agreement would have placed greater value on honor, loyalty & friendship" choice.
When taking out the trash, choose the "it might have given Christy a chance to help fix the situation & be saved from punishment" choice.
Here's how I did it (sorry for bad video quality):
you kind of have to jump until almost at the very edge of the ground, then maximize your first jump by holding the spacebar until you start to fall down/hit the pentagon boost thingy, and then maximize your second jump as normal.Took more than enough tries to get it right but at least it worked out in the end.
I saw your review on that guy (Dilvanrage) who took your game. I don't know if you did this already, but I reported his stolen game page in case you haven't done that beforehand. I'm not sure if this is just him trolling or what, but it seems pretty lousy to steal a horror indie game like yours as so.
