MOCA'S PROFILE

I just started playing this earlier today (I meant to get around to playing it before, but life’s been catching up with me!) Anyway, obviously, the pixel graphics and sprites are beautiful; I love the pink and purple palette you’ve used and overall trippy aesthetic of some of the backgrounds. The gameplay took a bit of getting used to, with memorising the layout of the sewers. But I overall found the whole concept really interesting! It took a few game overs to get an ending

(I got the one where you don’t pick up the guitar, enemies don’t spawn and you get a doppelgänger of sorts?)

But I’ve almost managed to complete the game normally, it gets quite difficult with the enemies getting quicker and having more health, and the time limit (again, memorising and speed run strats).

I was just wondering if there is a way to save in this game, considering the Snore option on the title screen? I thought it was probably left out intentionally, since when you know what you’re doing the game is fairly quick to play through (or I’m too dumb to find it). The gameplay style really reminds me of Ghost Suburb, by any chance did you have any inspiration from that? And the

gave me some Yume Nikki vibes.

It’s nice to see another game from you! After playing Momoka, I was interested to see more surreal horror and cutesy stuff.

I'm glad you're enjoying the aesthetic of the game! There is no save option, there just isn't a way to remove the load option in RPG Maker 2003 (without hacking, but I didn't want to do that) so I just renamed it to 'Snore'.

I'm glad that you noticed the Ghost Suburb 0 influences! You are correct, I was heavily inspired by the gameplay of Ghost Suburb 0, I am such a big fan of that game. I was inspired by Yume Nikki as well, but to come up with the different worlds, my friend directed me to a random Homestuck planet generator haha.

Thank you, I hope you look foward to my future projects!

Congrats on completing your first game! I like the title screen! And I just gave this a try. But my gosh - there was too much text. Please remember the authors' lesson: show, don't tell. The first time, when you told us Momoka was blindfolded, it was alright to an extent - but even then please be cautious with how many words you use in a game.

Thank you for playing my game! I'm sorry that you felt that way about the word count. I didn't think that it was too much, and this is the first time hearing that there was too many words, but I'll keep this in mind for the full version. Thank you again!
