This project is the continuation of the first episode, I won't be changing the features much (RPG battles / Exploration) but will try to add a debate system as you counter your opponent's words when you solve the crime.

Story:

After defeating Lust, your self-claimed detective duo is back to hunt demons and solve cases along the way. Mike's luck has landed her to a hot-springs resort and the chance to meet a classmate, but of course things doesn't go so well. They had a flat tire on the way and is stuck on the mountain, in an estranged mansion, along with some people who don't accept common sense as a way of communication.

Features!
- Those awesome stuff you've seen in the first game (RPG battle, click and point adv)
- Shorter investigations
- Longer word count, probably
- Branching paths!
- Some murders
- Was trying to add debate system like in Phoenix Wright where you counter people with evidence
- More randomness
- Cue guest Doppelganger character appearance

Characters

Available fighters :

Michelle Vinson / Mike (17)
re_set_ep_2___mike_by_azurextwilight_rllz-d6fs9zf.jpg
Michelle Vinson is still a playable character, she is silly, happy-go-lucky and decided to fall in love with her companion (somehow) because she wanted to have a more "exciting life". She is also a high-school student whose normal school life has to halt for a while because of demons (and her own fault)

Gerald
re_set_ep_2___gerald_by_azurextwilight_rllz-d6fndtt.jpg
Second playable character who still has no clue about his memory because the demons are being jerk-asses for not telling. In this episode we get to see some things he is hiding from Mike. Passionate about cooking, is holding the role of caretaker/the one with common sense/the lancer/token snarky guy and somehow forced to be the token love interest even though he prefers calm and mature women.

Grace Lancaster (21)
re_set_ep_2___grace_lancatser_by_azurextwilight_rllz-d6jc4cv.jpg
Grace Lancaster is a playable MC whose route opens after a certain requirements. She is a short-range attacker whose weapon is a rapier. Grace is the owner of the mansion everyone got lost to, and is quite quiet and reserved, well, except while listening to Savan's stories.

Savan Roughknight (20)

AKA the guy who came from nowhere, is generally clumsy and sometimes can be self-righteous. But generally he's a nice person/whatever species he is since he protects the weak. It's something that's common in stories, right?

Miki Kusanagi (19)
re_set_ep_2___miki_kusanagi_by_azurextwilight_rllz-d6i2h9v.jpg
Mike's senior and ex-student council president. Since the Kusanagi family is a subordinate of the Ryuudou family her duty is basically babysitting Ryuudou and keeps him outta trouble. Calm and reserved, but is afraid of ghosts. Good at changing diapers for several reasons.

Ryuuzaki Ryuudou (17)
re_set_ep_2___ryuuzaki_ryuudou_by_azurextwilight_rllz-d6ftjc6.jpg
Mike's classmate and biggest rival who got dropped out from school due to never attending class, however people believe it's due to his idiocy as well. Mike calls him "Baldy" and he calls Mike "Flatcheston". She also believes him to have a foe yay tendency over her.

Wang Jianyu (28)
re_set_ep_2___wang_jianyu_by_azurextwilight_rllz-d6glbns.jpg
Someone who is also got lost in the mansion. He always sleeps at random occasions, even in the middle of a conversation, and seems to be taking too many pills for his own good. It is not known as to why he is wearing dark glasses indoors, but he says it's due to his migraine attacks which cause fotophobia episodes.

Mae Fontanne (27)
re_set_ep_2___mae_fontanne_by_azurextwilight_rllz-d6hrdqs.jpg
Mae is quite bright and cheerful. She doesn't mind to remind Jianyu to eat his medicine or wake him up every time he fell asleep, and is overly dedicated of him. She claims to be a pacific, but has the tendency to be excited around blood.

Frank and Teresa Archer (46 & 18)

Father and daughter, they are the only ones who are still working at Grace's mansion.

I really can't wait!!!

Oh just a question will it be similar to the previous ep 2?? I mean the story (like it was with the old ep 1 and the new ep 1, that the central part was the same) or will it be something completely different????
Just wondering :P

I don't want to change the majority of it, so the central part will be mostly be similar But the relationship between characters will change, and of course some new characters like Miki and Ryuudou will reappear in the next episode so you might want to play this to know them first.

You need a bit of randomizing coordinate thing for the cursor to be shaky, That'll be fun if you managed to implement it!

Ah, in one of the exploration scenes there will be a timer, you can't visit all the places / meet everyone in one go since people move to other place when the hour changes :)
