Nothing Here
A downloadable game for Windows
My 2nd game. It's also an interactive story and it was made over the course of a few months.
It is about trying to remember something. Something important that shouldn't be forgotten, no matter how painful it may be to remember.
This game is a tad longer than my first game was. It lasts about 2-3 hours if you take your time and check everything and about 1-2 hours if you go as fast as you can.
The controls are:
Esc. = menu button
Arrow keys = walking
Shift + Arrow keys = running
Enter= talk/check something
This game was hard for me to finish. After about two months of working on it, I gave up and a month or so later I re-made the whole game. I almost ended up giving up on the game again, but decided that I had gotten too far into it and needed to finish it no matter how bad or how dumb I thought it was.
This game has voice acting. Why? Well I wanted to try it out and see if it was possible to do voices in an RPG maker game. I found out that it is possible and that it is also a lot of work. I voiced every character in this game and I am not a professional voice actor, so um... It's not great. But it's not absolutely terrible either.
If I ever make a third game, it most likely will not have voice acting in it.
Is this a sequel to my first game? Yeah... Kind of.
I mean, you can play it without having played the first game and still somewhat understand what's going on. However, if you play my first game (How Happy Are You?) first before playing this one, you may understand it a bit better. However, a lot of people complained of that game being confusing and having annoying audio so maybe it's best if you just don't play that game...
There are 3 endings in this game: A "Bad" ending (which results in a Game Over), a "Neutral" ending, and a "True" ending.
None of these endings are particularly hard to get, though the True Ending does require a bit more exploration and puzzle-solving than the others.
Important Note: CHECK EVERYTHING. Seriously. Tables. Boxes. Pots. Almost anything you see can be checked on with the enter button. If you get stuck, check stuff. Also you can talk to some characters multiple times, so even after talking to them a first time, you may want to talk to them again as they may say something new. Checking certain objects, carrying certain items, or talking to certain characters about certain topics, may allow you to talk to a character about something new. Talking to characters can give you hints about what to do next, though most of the time talking to them will only result in pointless dialogue that has nothing to do with anything, but it can be fun to listen to.
Also this game is kinda sad. I wouldn't play it if you're currently happy because it might make you sad.
If you need help with anything, I might help you if you leave a comment. I'm also very socially awkward so I may shy away from conversations sometimes. Sorry.
Also if something is severely broken about my game (which hopefully nothing is... I've played my game many times over and I haven't run into anything serious...) please let me know and I will try to fix it. You shouldn't need the VX Ace RTP to run it and if for whatever reason you do need that to run it... Please tell me so I can try to fix that.
Lastly the game is free and you can donate if you want to, but you don't have to.
Lastly x2: In my first game people told me that the audio was too loud so in this game the audio of everything has been lowered a lot. It actually might be too quiet now... So you may want to turn up your volume a little before playing the game.
...I am terrified of submitting this but here goes nothing...

So I just finished streaming this game and just wanna put this out there. This game was absolutely awesome, absolutely amazing story. and was touching and sad and also funny. really my only criticisms would be that the voices that you added echo or reverb to just needs a little less of that and it was a little quiet but nothing that couldn't be fixed by turning the volume up a bit. otherwise that was actually really good. you definitely should be really proud of this game. I going to be playing the first one some time on Thursday. Also if you are interested in collaborating on a game I would totally be down. I'm a programmer and I have a couple really good ideas but I cant really do any story writing because im bad at it haha. so if you are interested my discord is walrus2224#7771. Keep up the good work!
I just checked my email for the first time in a few months and saw that you had left this comment on my page. Sorry it's taken so long to reply but I was embarrassed of this game and didn't want to look at my game page for a very long time. Thank you for the kind words and for the tips. You've actually made me want to replay my own game which I haven't touched or even looked at since I released it to the public. It's really cool that you're a programmer and I would be very interested in helping you out with anything you think I could help with. I myself aspire to be a programmer, but uh I'm still working on that. I am super anti social however, super shy, super bad with talking. Typing is good, talking not so much, and having discussions with people online or off, is something I struggle with so it may be a bit hard to work with me (sorry). But if you're still looking for a story writer, I'd be glad to work with you as best as I can. Thanks again.
seriously no reason to be embarrassed it's actually really good. One of the better indies I've played. I'm going to be starting a project shortly that will be taking a lot of my programming time so atm I can't really do anything else in that area. But in the future I will definitely hit you up if you are still into story writing. However if you are looking to start getting into programming and haven't yet just go for it man. There are a lot of really good and free resources. What I would start with if you haven't already is either codeacademy.com or a program called scratch. Scratch is a program made by MIT which is drag and drop programming so it's a great place to start and learn the basics of programming without having to worry about the syntax of any specific language. But seriously it's never too early to start that stuff.
Thanks! I'll be sure to check out codeacademy.com and scratch. They sound very interesting. Good luck on your project.
