I played Stay? before and loved it to pieces, so when I saw you had a new similar game I was so excited because I just *knew* it was going to be good. I just finished my first run of the game and now I know for sure I want to play this again and again like in Stay?. Your way of writing and telling a story really just resonates with me because it's like a warm, familiar hug I am experiencing for the first time. Thank you so much for creating, you sincerely inspire me in my own creative ventures.
In the beta version of the game, the jello was infinite. It never ran out. One of my beta testers is still mad I killed "Infinite Jello Vending Machine"
just want to say this is a great game!! all the characters are so fun and quirky and i love them all sm but especially bec!! angry girls in leather jackets hold a special place in my heart <3 i played until i got all the endings. some of them were funny, some of them were bittersweet and others heartwarming.
i love this so so very much. i got the ending where you become a spider demon and roadtrip with gwyn and bec (i like to think that tam and mc are in a qpr :])
I remember playing "Stay?" and holding it fondly to my chest for hours on end. I can certainly say this - More a Haunting than a History - will be held with the same fondness. You end up feeling connected to each character, in a way. The polyamorous inclusion was lovely - I expressed romantic interest in all the possible characters, but Chris certainly stole my heart. His ending felt like home.
I’m so glad! I loved writing Chris’s full story— I think in some ways his, like Suzette’s in Stay?, is the most potentially transformative. He’s got range :)
Just binged a playthrough and wow. Kind of at a loss for words tbh... what a story. I was so immersed in it and I NEEDED to do everybody right and see it through to the end. I was so confused for most of the playthrough, and even now after finishing, I am honestly not any less confused lmfao. Yet, I'm still coming away from it feeling cathartic.
For real, excellent game and excellent story. I've been trying, but I can't find better words to describe it than the commenter below. Haunting, heartwarming, and sweet(?). Perhaps even sinister? Am I crazy for feeling paranoid about what was going on? Lmao.
ngl this was fantastic from beginning to end. I just loved how the story intertwined in every way and besides the romance was a beautiful tidbit. Thank you for making such a sweet(?) yet haunting yet heartwarming story.
This is so amazing!!! I will definitely have to play through again to learn more, but this run was very satisfying.
Spoilers Below
I got to romance Daisy, Bec, AND Gwyn, and I’m besties with Tam. Traveling the world with Bec and Gwyn is so nice, and even if I don’t have Daisy with me I have her gift of being a spider demon, which I think is so sweet! Chris isn’t my type but I’m definitely going to try and learn more about him next time around.
I do have a question though - Do you think Bec and Gwyn will ever be satisfied with their travels (for now at least), and settle back in town for a little while?
I think they will be satisfied and settle down eventually— but I think it will be in a new place, one of the portal towns they travel to and fall in love with, and not where they grew up.
This choose-your-own-adventure game lets you explore who you used to be so that you can decide who you want to be....(not really you, but playing as someone else).
this was absolutely amazing, stunning, lovely, thank you for making it <3 all your work, whether it be your games or your writing, touches my heart so deeply
i loved this but the ending was actually somewhat depressing lol is there alternative endings depending on choices made in the dreams or will it always lead out the same just with different characters
The ending doesn’t depend on the dreams— it depends on your relationships with the characters and what they’re willing to help you with or offer to you. The more friends you make, the more options you will have. There’s quite a few different possible endings!
Be kind to him! Also make sure to befriend Gwyn as well— there’s some content with her that will unlock Chris content. Daisy also unlocks some Chris content.
Thank you! There are ways to get *more* memories, but I wouldn’t say there’s a way to get *all* of them.
Depends how much you know already! While you can learn more about Aunt Bev and her choices, I wouldn’t say this game will ever give you the “full” story.
i really enjoyed your other game, stay?, and was very excited to see another piece of work from you! I've spent several hours playing through this over and over by now, and every time has had something new to surprise me with. All of your characters feel alive and three-dimensional, and I love the entire story. Thank you for making this, and sharing it.
holy mackerel! this was absolutely stunning I have had so much fun the characters were so moving and I love them all so much, I love Tam, Bec and Gwyn the most I ended up with Daisy mostly on accident but I desperately want to try romancing Bec, the relationship they Had with us was just so... good. I adore how much they all meant to each other. thank you for this fantastic story I look forward to playing again and again and every new thing you write!

Just got emotionally destroyed by Stay? and I can't wait to be emotionally destroyed by this.
I hope you had a good time!

Inspiring creativity is one of the best victories! Many word-hugs for you :)
The most cursed/haunted thing about the town is the hospital having a vending machine that sells jello... lol
In the beta version of the game, the jello was infinite. It never ran out. One of my beta testers is still mad I killed "Infinite Jello Vending Machine"

also yes july is def a festive month ;)
I’m so glad you liked it!! Bec and her snarliness are very near and dear to me.
There people who are smart, there people who are dumb and there is me who simple didn't knew we could apparently date people in the game.
Well i got the ends where i go to the realms and become besties with the sweet boi Tam
Besties is the height of victory tbh
i love this so so very much. i got the ending where you become a spider demon and roadtrip with gwyn and bec (i like to think that tam and mc are in a qpr :])
Delightful! That’s a wonderful ending and a wonderful QPR.

Loved Tam btw. Good characters all around.
Thank you, I’m so glad! My wife loves Tam :)
I’m adding an update soon that I think will make play a little smoother and also add trophies!

Thank you so much! Sweet with a question mark works very well :)

I loved the game
But how do I romance Chris?
I could only choose Bec sob
Be kind to him! Also make sure to befriend Gwyn as well— there’s some content with her that will unlock Chris content. Daisy also unlocks some Chris content.
Thank you <3
I’ve tried everything and the world doesn’t want me to romance Chris apparently
I played a few hours and liked your game very much 🙂
Do we have a way to have all the memory back ?
And what about aunt Bev ? Is there a way to learn more about her and who she was ?
Thank you!
There are ways to get *more* memories, but I wouldn’t say there’s a way to get *all* of them.

Romance Bec! You can do it!
Thank you for exploring this world and caring about these characters.
Wow this was incredible
Thank you! You’re incredible
