Welcome HOME, dear puppeteer.

This world has been waiting some time for your arrival. The tables
of balance has been turned, and the fate of the world trusted
into a familiar face. The guardian of zone 0 himself, The Judge. Your job is to lead him on a new journey, masterful puppeteer.

This world is wrapped in an enigma, a shroud of confusion overlapped the
once peaceful zones. The true guardian of zone 0 himself has the very marrow
of his bones rattled with the feelings of Deja Vu. The day that he would become the marionette of the new world is coming, and upon your very arrival the world will undergo otherworldly changes.

Just what is going on in this world? Why has the switch been reset? Has The Judge forgotten everything that happened? Has the world been reversed to a state of pristine ignorance? Only you can find out, fateful puppeteer. You will travel the world, and meet the guardians you know so well. However, you will face enemies and foes unlike anything you've imagined. New allies will join your side, and new personalities will be explored. New places will be visited, a zone that defies the logic and reason of the world you know. Puzzles that expand beyond the game and into our world. You will become one with your puppet, and in your combined state you will bring the land to the closure it deserves. The fate, and the direction of that closure however, is up to the decisions you make. Choose wisely my friend, its up to you to save their HOME.

HOME is a non-canonical fangame created with the permission of Mortis Ghosts, the creator of OFF - the game from which HOME was inspired. You take control of The Judge in this project, and see the world through his eyes.



New characters and enemies are introduced in this story, with a combat system that's more threatening and challenging than OFF's style. HOME makes uses of the elements and status effect system and stretches is as far as possible. It's recommended you play Mortis Ghosts "OFF" before you touch this project, as this game and its entirety is connected and continued after OFF. Playing HOME without first playing OFF will not only lead to spoilers but will lead you to a path of confusion and detachment from the entire world.

The game features custom sprites, music, icons, sound effects, and battle animations. It uses as much fresh resources where and whenever possible.

In Memoriam

It is incredibly sad to have to break this news to those who may not know of it as yet, but the creator of this game, TheJudge, passed away recently.

As such we, the staff of RMN, are posting this blog informing all who knew him and enjoyed his games (both in the past and the future) of this tragedy.

Too soon we have lost another comrade to that final rest. May you remain forever in our hearts, Judge.


Rest in Peace

I got to the end of your beta demo, can't wait for the rest. But I know how time consuming it is to work on a game. I need to finish my projects on RMVXA. Very faithful to Off, I like how you did the story based around The Judge and his feline companions.

I'm really glad you liked the project so far. I'm so close to sealing the deal on this project I can't wait.
WARNING: CONTAINS MILD SPOILERS

I really enjoy this project so far! It perfect catches the atmosphere of OFF, and it takes it to a whole new level. I like how the story begins the same way as OFF, then goes it's own separate way, as if it was an alternate timeline. I like the improved battle system as well, it's clearly more sophisticated than OFF's.

END OF SPOILERS

Since I'm French, I would be interested in translating it in French when it's done. Though I still have to think about it, because translating a game takes a lot of time. (I know that because I've already translated games before)
oh right uh

This is a hella good fangame and I love it good job

I dunno if someone is already translating it or not, but feel free if you desire.

Is there any place I can get a guide for some of these puzzles? I'm on hard mode and I'm in the library in Zone 2 with the "view it as a mirror" puzzle. I've tried everything and can't seem to figure it out. I must not be "mirroring" it right...

Well that was disappointing.


So the ending is just that the Judge does exactly the same thing as the Batter, but he's praised for it while the Batter is condemned because there's now a deus ex machina to undo all his mistakes. The final confrontation is now just an extended episode of "pot meets kettle", totally absent of all the pathos from the original. The lack of self-awareness is truly staggering. And it's served with a side dish of women are crazy and evil that comes out of absolutely nowhere, because we need an excuse to kill the Queen. Just...what?


And I notice it's still riddled with grammar mistakes, which is also unfortunate. All the effort you put into the story and unique art goes to waste when players are jarred out of the experience by an incomprehensible sentence.
