Re: Moe Escape [Escape the room, Psychological, Horror, Cute
It was a fun game - I wasn't disappointed by the ending cos hey, it technically makes sense, and also it was a short game.
But all in all, it was a fun game! Gonna check out Ellie.
Congrats for shooting the shaggy dog. XD
A minor nitpick, but I think you shouldn't mislead players with the "psychological" in the thread tag. There's nothing remotely psychological about it - a psychological genre is one that concentrates on the stark realism, motivations and psyche of the characters involved. The loli girl's reaction to being trapped in a strange room is all but realistic. Yep, it's the charm of the game, but it isn't psychological. I'm saying this because more and more games have been misusing the word "psychological" lately and it isn't a very good idea as it heavily dilutes the genre and people stop knowing how to use it. But all in all, it was a fun game! Gonna check out Ellie.

Re: Moe Escape [Escape the room, Horror, Cuteness]
Played it. Loved it.
Fabienne is so cute :3 The sprites you made look really good and her interactions with the environment are great. I also liked the way how to use the objects.
I really enjoyed this game and I think you did an amazing job! The puzzles were really well done, especially the last one.
Just one thing that didn't make quite sense for me:
I would love to see a sequel of this game or a longer version or...actually I'm ok with whatever you plan for the future, because I've seen your potential.
I will keep my eyes out for the games you make in the future

Just one thing that didn't make quite sense for me:
Why does the key float to the surface? Aren't keys usually to heavy and sink down when they fall into water? I think if an object that normally floats on the water would be attached to the key it would make more sense. At least for me. But I still liked the idea
I have to admit I wasn't quite satisfied with the ending and I was like "nooo, this can't be the end". I wish the game would have been longer I would love to see a sequel of this game or a longer version or...actually I'm ok with whatever you plan for the future, because I've seen your potential.

Re: Moe Escape [Escape the room, Horror, Cuteness]
Loved this, especially the final puzzle. ^_^
It took me a couple of tries to work out what to do, but not so long that I wanted to give up.

I'm surprised more people haven't asked about that. I don't know... It must be a plastic key.
We'll see what happens. Right now I'm gonna take a break. I think I overworked myself making this game xD After my break I'll see what happens-

Alright, I understand that. I think there's no need to push yourself anyway, because you did a great job so far

Re: Moe Escape [Escape the room, Horror, Cuteness]
This was an adorable, creepy, and beautifully made escape the room puzzle.
I am in awe of your inventory system. Is there any chance of you adding how you did it to the ren'py cookbook?

Re: Moe Escape [Escape the room, Horror, Cuteness]
I don't know if it's worthy to go in the cookbook, but I'll post the code here so you can see itFlowers from Nowhere wrote:This was an adorable, creepy, and beautifully made escape the room puzzle.
I am in awe of your inventory system. Is there any chance of you adding how you did it to the ren'py cookbook?
Code: Select all
elif result == "items":
voice "load.ogg"
show items6 onlayer pie
$ result = renpy.imagemap("ground.png", "selected.png", [
(835, 389, 1280, 800, "key"),
(416, 400, 823, 800, "crate"),
(391, 0, 798, 360, "bucket"),
(0, 0, 426, 400, "nothing"),
(0, 400, 426, 800, "rock"),
(798, 0, 1280, 400, "glass"),
])
hide rockicon onlayer pie
hide crateicon onlayer pie
hide glassicon onlayer pie
hide keyicon onlayer pie
hide bucketicon onlayer pie
if result == "crate":
voice "equip.ogg"
$ item = 3
show crateicon onlayer pie
hide items6 onlayer pie
jump eighttwo
if result == "nothing":
voice "equip.ogg"
$ item = 0
hide rockicon onlayer pie
hide items6 onlayer pie
jump eighttwo
if result == "rock":
voice "equip.ogg"
$ item = 1
hide items6 onlayer pie
show rockicon onlayer pie
jump eighttwo
if result == "glass":
voice "equip.ogg"
$ item = 2
hide items6 onlayer pie
show glassicon onlayer pie
jump eighttwo
if result == "bucket":
voice "equip.ogg"
$ item = 4
hide items6 onlayer pie
show bucketicon onlayer pie
jump eighttwo
if result == "key":
voice "equip.ogg"
$ item = 5
hide items6 onlayer pie
show keyicon onlayer pie
jump eighttwo
Let's take a look at what we have here then. So when the item icon is clicked, this code first loads the inventory image(which is just a jpg with pics of the items) and then erases any picture of an item that is currently equipped(the little pic of the icon during gameplay). Next, the imagemap is set in place, so when you click in a certain area, that item is then equipped. So say we clicked on the picture of the rock, it would play the equip sound first. Next it would set the variable "item" to 1. What this does is tell the game what item the player currently has equipped. So when you go and click the mirror, it will only break if item==1. Then the game hides the inventory and displays the rockicon.png picture to show you have the rock currently equipped.
That's it really. It could've been done much more gracefully, but I took the easier, more convoluted route. ^_^
Let me know if you have any questions.
Re: Moe Escape [Escape the room, Horror, Cuteness]
Very short game, but enjoyable nonetheless. For most of the stories, I was pretty sure that :
The girl was the madwoman behind all of this. Look at it: the main character is chained in a strange room, when she is free to move. She does not take any initiative before we wake up, but does everything we say, except unchaining us. She is clearly toying with us! She is using her moe power to manipulate the player! Actually, the ending does not contradict this: she could be lying and faking an attack from an imaginary other culprit.
I actually think there is a potential for a sequel or an extended version, with more rooms, and perhaps, also, more plot.- xavimat

Yeah, 100%! As soon as it mentioned we were still chained to the wall I instantly jumped to the girl being the culprit. Why wasn't she chained too!
WHY DAMMIT! I just tested this:PinkPoison wrote:Just one thing that didn't make quite sense for me:Why does the key float to the surface?

But I still liked the idea
I threw 4 of my keys into the sink and my West Coast key (football team) floats. I can tell now that, quality-wise, it wasn't worth the $8.99 I paid for it XD
Edit: Thinking about how this is how I'm spending my midnights is beginning to worry me XD-

I thought the same thing! I'm also pretty sure that she has to be involved in all this >.<

And don't worry it was for research purpose after all xD

Re: Moe Escape [Escape the room, Horror, Cuteness]
I tried to play, but after the part at the very beginning where she says "What should I do?" I couldn't do anything! Everything was dark and black and there were no options of anything, or am I to click around everywhere until there's light? (I was clicking around but....nothing was happening).
