Summary

Prom Dreams is a freeware romance/horror adventure game created with RPG Maker VX Ace.

You are Kyle Mason, a soft-spoken, popular senior at the elite St. Giles Academy. After a traumatic breakup with a girl from his old school, Kyle is eager to move on with his life - and his senior prom, he believes, will be the perfect opportunity to do just that.

With the help of his nosy best friend and the rest of the school, Kyle must win the hands and hearts of one of three girls: the cute, bubbly junior, Neela Devar, the brash basketball MVP, Maggie Pham, or the cool, intelligent class leader, Brooke O’Keefe. It’s up to you to ensure the perfect prom night!

Or… is it?

Prom Dreams features:

-A combination of light-hearted dating sim antics and cerebral, puzzle-based horror gameplay (Think Tokimeki Memorial meets Corpse Party.)
-An original story with multiple routes and endings
-An (almost) entirely original soundtrack
-Subtle changes to the game environment as the horror slowly unfolds
-Three unique sidequests
-Multiple unique death/Game Over scenes
-A hint system for struggling players, contingent upon getting Game Overs
-A total of 9-13 hours of gameplay. (Yes, really. Trust me on this one.)

Important note: As a horror game, Prom Dreams will contain scenes of graphic violence, sudden noises, and other disturbing content. It is NOT recommended for the faint of heart or anyone under the age of 16.

This game is really unique. I must admit, I -almost- didn't play through the second part of it, I thought it was a glorified New Game +. But then I decided "Ah heck" and when I found out it was so much more, I was surprised.
Not to mention the title screen changing as you go through the game? Epic. xD
Took me about 11 Hours to complete, myself, and I felt so smart figuring out the puzzles at the end.

Thank you for the awesome game! :D I've been suggesting this to a few friends, even.

Thank YOU for playing and leaving feedback!! Lol, you're the second person to nearly be fooled by the false flag endings. Perhaps I made them a little too subtle? idk. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Thanks again; I'm so glad you enjoyed it and I hope your friends do as well!
This game looks great! I'm going to play it either way, but would you mind if I recorded myself for a let's play?

Please do, by all means!! There's a clause in the Read Me with specific rules regarding credit, etc for Let's Players (it's nothing much, just a link in the video description at the least). Let me know when you upload it so I can promo you! :D

Sweet!! Thank you friend, I look forward to it :D
I haven't finished the game yet but I can say that this is definitely one of my favorite rpg horror games I've played! You did a great job!! The beginning was a little slow I must admit, but that was necessary for the horror elements to be all the more startling. Love it!

Thank you, I'm so glad you're enjoying it!! ;w;

Honestly, I hadn't intended for the game to be as long or drawn out as it wound up being. ^^;; Even though the beginning is basically straight up dating sim antics, I wanted there to be enough of a draw to keep people going, so I'm glad you thought there was. Good luck finishing it and let me know what you think!!
I did it, I got all the endings and it was great! I even cried at the end. A great game, definitely on my favorites list! (definitely going to be some fanart, if that's okay)

Thank you!! I'm glad you liked it so much ;A; Now if you could please fill this mug with your tears, I'd appreciate it :D

YES YES PLEASE MAKE ALL OF THE FANART. ALL OF IT. <3

@Davenport: Thank you for your commentary and I'm glad you enjoyed the game; however, please refrain from posting unhidden spoilers, since the game relies very heavily on the mystery and suspense aspect. ^^;;

OK - I guess I should give it another chance then. The beginning is so long-winded that I quit for fear of falling asleep.

It takes about an hour or 2 to actually get to the horror, but the game itself is anywhere from 9 to 13 hours of gameplay total. If you go in thinking it's gonna be super short, well, it's not. :P
I don't like this game, I absolutely love it!

This is one of the best indie games I've ever played.
Story was mysterious and interesting, puzzles were smart and mapping was beautiful.
At first glance, characters appear one-dimensional: "brains and beauty" popular girl,
cute and polite girl that knows how to cook, school's sport star...
However, once you go deeper in a story you discover all of them have their secrets and are much more complex.

Thank you so much for making this amazing game and I hope I'll see many of your works in the future!:)

Don't scare me with that first sentence!! DX

But I'm so glad you liked it so much!! Thank you for the kind words! ;w; I wanted the game to masquerade as a typical dating sim before the Scary Bomb drops, so I'm glad you were surprised by the characters. :D

I do have more plans for games once I've gotten same IRL stuff taken care of, so I hope I don't disappoint! <3
Played it, liked it, but I think it could have left me more satisfied if the ending wasn't so tragic. Still, one of the best I've ever played. Hat's off to you. Took me some sweet 9 hours to complete, by the way.

Thanks! But, my friend, did you get the Good ending or one of the other two? Because rest assured only the Good ending is canon. You'll have to work for it, though! ;)

Aww, I see. I'm sorry you found it to tragic, then! I just (continued below due to spoilers):

Didn't want to make the Good ending TOO "good", mostly because as sympathetic as I made her, I didn't want Dolores' actions to be inadvertently rewarded. She made a lot of Bad Decisions that can't be undone, even with her power, and I felt like reviving people or even giving Dolores the romance she wanted would have cheapened it. I will say this, though: Kyle WILL end up okay, at least, even if he is a bit scarred. :)
