About:

Patches is a Surreal Horror RPG game in development inspired by the classic story, Alice in Wonderland. Based on a short fantasy horror story written by Carillon Nightmares, it presents a new surreal atmosphere to explore with creatures that can only be found in fairy tales. The deeper you travel into these surreal worlds, the darker they become, and the more you begin to realize that even the brightest of dreams can become the most horrifying of nightmares.

Story:

Gilbert Warrens, a young orphan boy in the Victorian Era who sees creatures and visions that no one else can see. He is mocked for his gift and the other orphans tend to stay away from him. So, he turns to the hidden creatures as friends instead. On his surreal journey he meets many different creatures such as talking night butterflies and a mysterious owl who controls time. However, not all these creatures that he meets are friendly. One, known as Mr. Raven Needlework, the Man of Surreal, invites people to a world of his own creation, and once a person enters this world, they never return to reality.

Remake of Patches Released (Otherland Demo)

https://rpgmaker.net/games/11434/

Otherland is a pay-what-you-want interactive visual novel made in RPG Maker VX Ace. It is a complete overhaul of Patches, which was a puzzle game cancelled in the middle of 2017 (2020 on this site) due to the author being overwhelmed by such a massive project.

Taking critiques on the previous game into account, the story and characters have been severely altered and organized more structurally, so that there is a way to make a whole game without an entire team to back up the director.

Otherland focuses on telling a story, instead of a puzzle and is more of a passion project than the last game. It is a whimsical horror based on Alice in Wonderland (book) and inspired by other horror titles like Little Nightmares, Fran Bow, Ib, and Pocket Mirror, while still having its own personal charm. It tells a story about how nothing can be ever be perfect and perfectionism isn't always perfect - this includes life not being perfect itself. That no matter how beautiful paradise may seem, it still has its flaws.

Just saw it got cancelled. :`(

Whatever the case or situation, hope you're doing well and that someday we can see more of your gammak.

Cheers!


I tried to post the new game twice and both times it got declined for two different reasons without telling me both issues the first time. (Honestly don't know why they expect a visual novel to have more 'gameplay' than text and images.) It's been several days since the last submission and I've given up hope of them ever accepting it. You can find the new game here, however!
