I enjoyed how scared I was while playing the first episode, and I still enjoyed the second episode too! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6NIens5w8A

Honestly loved the atmosphere! Only thing is it's redundant and will get stale after a while. My suggestion is to have multiple items (not just backpacks because it doesn't make sense...watch my video :> ) I had fun recording this game, made a couple of fun bits/roleplays and jumpscare! (Although I didn't finish through all areas, still had fun!)
I made a Let's Play of your game! As a Filipino, this was fun.
I love the atmosphere and how the story played out. There were a lot of bugs but that's okay. I like how you put a couple of Filipino folklore around the map and all the "sacrificial" areas where mindblowing. All in all, I really enjoyed it!
Thanks to the developer for requesting me to play the game! I enjoyed the game and looking forward for more updates to come!
My review is all throughout my video (not really the usual review but everything I say on the video is generally what could possibly help the developer!)
This game reminded me of the RPGMaker and bit games back then that were near to my heart because I enjoy those genres and it's good that in 2019, there are still people who create these kinds of games that are generally fun to explore and mess around with.
Hope to see more! :)
Full playlist - 3 parts (roughly around 1 hour 20 mins total).
Thanks for the opportunity, Adam!
PART 1
PART 2
PART 3Only got a very short taste of the demo, didn't take me that long to finish though props to the graphics and atmosphere in the game.
Would be nice to have a couple of video settings so we can change the quality easier (getting a couple of frame issues even though I have a strong GPU) but all in all, it has potential!
Good work!
CHAPTER 6 (GOOD COMPLETE ENDING) - Rycopene (Let's Play-Full Game)
Wow. Just wow.
Amazing game! It's been a while since I've really been invested in a horror game just like this! Putting RE2 aside (I got invested into that, but ok), this is the first indie horror game in a long time that I enjoyed! I mean, think about it. The story was amazingly well written. The game had the perfect pace to reveal bits of the entire story. You had to check everything if you want to get the complete ending. There are multiple endings to your game, and only you get to decide which you want to end with based on your actions (purposefully checking everything out or avoiding some parts of the game) and overall made it a very fun Let's Play!
I truly enjoyed every single bit of it. Now, on the other hand, I have to get the other 2 endings. So I'll be playing Dark and Chaos Modes to get both of those hopefully and under the new update! InvertMouse, I'll be waiting. :)

Hey InvertMouse! What's the time frame for those extra lore books update? Can't wait to see how that plays out! :)
Will the tutorial and extra lore books be a separate update? I'm guessing there will be some changes with how the game is played with the books...perhaps?
I'll be sure to play the next updates on Dark and Chaos Modes as promised. My last episode drops today. :)
Good luck and make the game more interesting than it already is! :)

CHAPTER 5 (CELLS) - Rycopene (Playthrough/Walkthrough/Let's Play)
CHAPTER 5 (CELLS)
In this chapter, the player has to activate multiple levers to unlock cells but it isn't that easy. Just like Chapter 3 (MAZE), you had to go make sure you remembered all the door patterns to get to the right cell.
What makes this harder is that you technically have 2 enemies. One, a VERY fast Chaos Servant and an eyeball that appears every now and again! Wow!
You will also find a lot of things that you've never seen before. A lot of the backstory will now make sense because of this chapter.
...oh and kinky heuheuh ;)

CHAPTER 4 (ROOMS) - Rycopene (Playthrough/Walkthrough/Let's Play)
CHAPTER 4 (ROOMS)
In this chapter, the player had to activate all buttons in each room to lower down the podium. However, a teleporting/invisible enemy lurks as we progress into the story! We get to play new characters in this chapter as well!
I like how the story is being revealed little by little with each character explaining how the events have occurred and who started all of the chaos madness within the mansion and Clea's family.
InvertMouse, you did good! Didn't like the invisible enemy but that made it more interesting! :)
Have fun watching my video! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0jdD_1-Q7_Q
CHAPTER 3 (MAZE) Playthrough/Walkthrough
This chapter showcased the Chaos/Evil version of Clea and how a maze should be. A maze shouldn't be too confusing because that's literally the reason why mazes are hated but with this chapter, even though at first I was confused, I understood the cool aspect of the maze. There are doors and symbols that you have to remember to what each door leads to and how to progress into the story!

CHAPTER 2 (and well, final bits of Chapter 1 but ok) - July 12th, 2019 (At the time of this comment, 1 hour til premiere!)
IMPORTANT TO CONTENT CREATORS: I just want to point out to content creators, such as myself, before uploading/streaming the full game, since it is the launch week, a request by InvertMouse (dev), only put up Chapters 1 and 2. After the launch week, you can upload Chapters 3-6 anytime. Please respect the dev's hard work and decision. CLEA wouldn't be possible without the amazing dev behind it. :)
But here it is, Chapter 2 of my playthrough! I just want to say that the game gets better and better through chapters. Not to spoil or anything but the whole premise of Chapter 1 becomes a lot more difficult and fun in Chapter 2. Chapter 2's concept transferred over to Chapter 3 and became a lot more intense and eye-catching that you really have to focus and of course, having fun at the same time.
*Can we just admire the art style like omg. For a short game (technically short), it matches the same excitement I get when I play other games of the same art style and genre...or even better! I'm sucking up to much aren't I? Haha! I just love this genre. :<
-------------
SHAMELESS SELF PROMO TIME: I'll be posting Chapters 3-6 after the launch week so if you guys are stuck or anything, for those only picking up the game after launch week (or during, whatever floats your boat), feel free to check my videos out and serve as your walkthrough! Trust me, I make sure to make it funny, scary(?), playthrough/walkthrough style Let's Play so you won't be missing anything...or if you just want to watch me play this amazing game then even better. :3
(self promo sorry not sorry)

FIRST FULL GAME PLAYTHROUGH?
Hi there! I have bought the game on steam and trust me, I love the ambiance it is giving me! At the time of this comment, my video will be premiered in an hour so for those who are here right now waiting for a sneak peak of the paid version, here you go!
But after an hour (July 11th), then you can freely watch it on my channel and will be public. :)

I definitely enjoy how the controls work and how the story is being paced, not too fast and not too slow, it's literally at the middle...and you say no jumpscares...oh are they not considered jumpscares...? Haha! I love these 2D story style type of games, brings out something special in storytelling.
I'm telling you, it's AWESOME!
-----
I'll be playing and hopefully finishing the game on my channel, so with that if it is allowed Game Dev InvertMouse, I would like to post all my episodes in the comments since it'll be somewhat a full playthrough. It's okay if no, though! No hard feelings, I'll still continue playing! :)
Hello! Really hope you replied to my concern few days ago instead of avoiding it. Anyways, I had fun playing the game. The jumpscares were funny and fun to experience. Also played with the physics of the things around. Hope you guys enjoyed my video! Had a lot of jumpscares which is always great for content!
You did an amazing job honestly just the audio not being picked up sucks but overall a fun game!
