You are Ariette. You ran away from home after an oddly violent argument with your parents. Other than that you can only recall the sound of your mother crying.

As the sun goes down, you light your lantern. Your village has never let anyone leave the safety of its walls at night; they say demons and other creatures stalk the woods in the surrounding area. What a ridiculous excuse.

You walk the path to the village. You are so close to arriving, but then you see it: the figure spasms towards you. You feel your head get lighter as your feet pound against the hard dirt. Your lantern shakes wildly, singeing your arm when it makes contact.

You feel the trees clawing at your face as you come to a small field of grass; your pursuer isn't far behind. You hear the grass rustling but you continue down the narrow path deeper into the woods.

In this game you play as Ariette. You will visit many locations in the dark forest with one goal: getting home alive. Many odd puzzles await you through the trees; some are based on trial and error whilst others will require very precise actions. Apart from these puzzles you will also have many encounters with the demons that stalk the night, from unseen terrors to your own reflection.

There will be multiple ways for your story to end, be it dying at the hands of the demons or making it home safely.

So I was almost finished the latest section of the game (Riverbed path to Mountain) and I get a freaking Unexpected File Format. I tried fixing it by doing what I normally do but it didnt work. Luckily I didnt encrypt the last version of the demo so I dont need to start over completely, but considering the fact my first exam is on Friday dont expect a demo or anything.

There should be more screenshots of other maps in the game, instead of just this one
map with different dialogue. Also, is this in the horror genre?
This sounds good, kind of reminds me of the one I'm making for RPG Maker VX Ace. I'll look into this, looks really good, judging by the screenshots. It has a lot of potential, I think! If you need any help with tilesets or maps (or anything, really), let me know :)

*Here are some tips*
  • You might want to change the window graphic from the default one, it's easy if you download the generator (Don't remember who it's made by)

    You should use different sprites besides the chibi type VX sprite. Try the loose leaf generator or something, it's what I use.


    Other than that, the game looks pretty good.

I really need to start making more screenshots when I test the game so I'll make sure I get some screenshots each time I play the game. And yes it is in the horror genre, it's my 2nd attempt at a horror game (my first attempt never even got submitted)

I don't plan on keeping the default window, I never knew there was a window generator though. Thanks for letting me know !!owo
I didn't plan on using the basic sprites either, so I'll check out the generator you reccomended. ^^

Room 1: Use the only mirror there
Room 2: Use the right mirror
Room 3: Use the right mirror
Room 4: Get the Small Knife from the chest, then use the only mirror in the room and then exit

Ah, I discovered a glitch where the very first monster chases you.
If you talk to the magic circles, the monster goes right past you,
and the game is not progressable from that point.

His move route is set and I'm not sure how to fix it since if I change his move type to approach then he glitches and doesn't move right QoQ
Oh wait... I could just make it that you can't interact with the circles .3.
Thank you for reporting a bug >:D

Just set his event priority to 'same as characters'.
There is no need to change his move type.

Y'see I'd never be able to think of that on my own .-.
Thank you °A°
This game is quite challenging. I'm stuck in the room with the cannibal
lady. I haven't faced a hard RPG maker game in a while do so don't change it :)

I'm actually surprised you're enjoying the difficulty ^^
Even when I was testing it I found the game difficult .-.
Here is how you can escape her though
Hide in the room with the dead bodies or use the chopping board in the kitchen

. . .
You cant speak to the demon he kills you you have to run to the southern exit, not the southeastern exit...
Southern, southeastern, no one let me pass ._.

You need to run (Shift key) to the exit at the bottom middle of the screen...
