Saw this game recommended on reddit, and I don't really know what the hell I just played but I think I loved it...

Gameplay I have to say was pretty basic, but the game as a whole was so creative I couldn't stop! Gave me real strong LISA vibes - have you played that?

I really liked the art style, it was really consistent and really shone with some of the weirder stuff later on - especially the ghost town, loved the ghost town. And I thought all of the music was really nice too.  

And I have to mention that *spoilers* final first-person spaceship scene. That was really clever!

Anyway, just thought I'd make a post to let you know I enjoyed the game, no matter how trippy it was!

Thank you! I really appreciate the kind words. It was fun to make,  a year prior I had no idea there was game engines out there  for dumbie's like me lol. I haven't played Lisa, but I've seen screen shots and I totally see what you mean.  Thanks again! :)

P.S. Wait you're the creator of "Ancra" I've been wanting to play your game, I had a wedding recently so my plates been full lol. Your game looks amazing, I've been wanting to make a horror game on that level. 

You should totally give LISA a go, I think you'd like it if you can get on board with the humour. It's also uses rpg maker in a really unique way, it's pretty interesting from a developer perspective. 

And thanks, Ancra's nearly finished! I'll send you a steam key when it's finally done!

I just got a chance to play your demo,  It's one of the best horror experiences I've played in a looong time. So moody, and silent hillish/ lovecraftian. How did you make that GUI for items? I've been trying to do that kind of customized menu for a year lol. I love the artwork, LOVE LOVE LOVE the sound effects. Everything about this game is unique and draws you in as a player. Very well done :) you should be making games for a living with this skill. With so many rpg maker games and pseudo horror games flooding the internet nowadays, I really hope this gets the attention it deserves. Can't wait to play the full version!

Well thanks very much!

The items menu is a custom plugin that I made... It was my first plugin so I think the way I went about it is a bit messy, but it works! I'll send you the plugin if you like? 

Anyway, thanks for the support, feedback like this makes all those long hours working worth it!

I found this tutorial pretty helpful too, from what I remember:
