Hey, would you like to hear a story?
Ambiguous is a story about things we can all relate to: pain, hatred, self-loathing... and love!
Trailer

(Made by lilyrose)

Plot
We follow our heroine, who's default name is L, through a seemingly abandoned city with two guys who she only met a few hours ago, Ruby and Alex. As they try to figure out why they're there and what it all means, they'll find out new things about themselves and each other.

Characters

Alex
Image
Gender: Male
Age: 20
Sexuality: Bisexual
Favorite Activity: Chess
Motto: "Always remain calm."


Ruby
Image
Gender: Male
Age: 18
Sexuality: Bisexual
Favorite Activity: Piano
Motto: "Evil never wins."


L

Gender: Female
Age: 19
Sexuality: Straight
Favorite Activity: Painting
Motto: "Put others before yourself."


Recruitment
So basically, my policy on people wanting to work with me is this: "You wanna work with me? Really? You choose this mediocre project out of all the other ones? What is wrong with you? ...JK PLEASE HELP ME." But seriously, if you want to help with this project at all, just message me or leave a post or something.

Demo
It be here.

Thank you! I made them myself. I thought they might not be good enough... It's surprisingly hard to be an artist. Or maybe it's not, and I just suck. Either way, thanks for the compliment!

Okay here is my honest critique: I like the atmosphere of the game - its creepy and scary.
The chalk textured background is a plus.! I really like it and very unique.
The characters is good at there role. They have their own personalities.
The bgm is good too, but it was lack of sound effects.

My ratings is 8.5/10

The style of your sprite is very fitted in your novel.

Thanks for your review! And as a side note, everything related to sound I'm putting everything related to music and sound in the to-do category. There is some music already, but I feel like the situation could be improved.

Okay, so I added shading and lighting to the game, as well as a few other things. You can see some examples here.

I just had lilyrose make me an awesome video. And I've gotta say, she did pretty damn good with the materials I gave her.
