i unirronically made an itchio account just to write this comment.
omg omg omg omg omg its so good
spoilers, go play the game before reading this
i adore the dystopian vibes, and the pixel art, and just the little details that really make the game feel so much more plasticy and fake in a cool vibes way.
for example, the fact that the store has no fruits, or frozen meats, or literally anything besides bread. which kinda makes sense cause they dont need to eat as they're dead. like omg. genius.
and the subtle detail of how Michel has presumably a dead body under her roses after noting that they need more nutrients and later tells us we look good in red????? what???????? omg
and the flowers??? FLOWERS????? genuinely creepy when u find out. especially if u got the cain disappears ending before the "run away" ending. it's so weird thinking, why are people sending flowers? is this some sort of simulation? or are the flowers a physical representation of their loved ones missing them from beyond the grave, which is why cain and rapheal dont have any cause u know. family issues. or maybe i'm way over thinking this and it's just as the game says.
and when u can annoy the guard into re-erasing ur memory???? absolutely hilarious
and the way the colorful world contrasts with the dreams???? chills. chills.
and cain omg cain my beloved. i loved this lil sh*t so much. the way he's embarrassed to talk about how we were "roommates"
(and they were roommates. heh)
Cain just feels so interesting to poke around, his personality is so... i dunno how to put it. just, adorable? not in the romantic way, in the, "look at this cat slowly warming up to me, awwww" way. and i can't imagine how he'd feel when his dead roommate just appears from the apparent dead forgetting all of their memories AHHHHHH omg.
the way cain's actions and dialogue can be recontextualized with the knowledge that rapheal went missing????
it seems that cain stayed alot longer at the town then the other residents cause he recognized us, but noone else did (obviously monday recognized us). both Eury and Michel comment on there being a new mail man so they must be newer with the doctor just leaving
out of all the characters, i feel the one that has the least characterization is surprisingly Monday. i dunno why, i just think he needs a few more interactions with the other characters in order to really feel solid. right now he feels very one note. very, i'm just here to set the vibes. ya know? but from what the creator said it seems his ending got cut for time so it makes sense and im not to mad bout it
i do feel that there were quite a few ends though. mostly, ya know. the part where we got shot? and the part where someone else got shot? and the person hiding in his house who isn't receiving the 'flowers' which help u move on. and the hopital.
i do believe that the person that shot us isn't from Eury despite the figure being described as having brown hair. and the obivious fact that she owns a gun. but the fact that she doesn't recognize us makes me think otherwise. idk. i may just be hallucinating a theory together. who knows? someone debunked me sooo just ignore this part ehe
also, the figure that got shot.... uh...... i dunno. i dont't really have a theory on em. the most i got is a that it may be a neighbor that went mad or maybe a corrupted soul/piece of data if we're going with the simulation theory, which is why cain recognized them as being a 'human' but the newer residents didnt. strange how Monday didn't leave the church but maybe im overthinking this.
anyways if u've read this all the way through then u deserve to get the money glitch (atleast i think this is the glitch). basically on Sunday michel will give u berries when u talk to her (im not sure if u need friendship to get them but i don't think so.) u can sell these to Eury when u talk to her and get the option to shop, go to sell. the berries only sell for 5 coin so be ready to sit there for hours. good luck
Actually, it really was Eury. She confirms it if you go to the store and talk to her after she shoots the creature/person(?). She also asks you to help her figure out what secrets the town is keeping, and if you say yes she gives you a steamer which will allow you to open letters.
I finished the game and saved it but its not letting me go back??? I also kept the original tab open the whole time and refreshed it but its still not there it only lets me start a new game i dont know if it auto deletes after you play it or something?(im not complaining since i at least finished it and i also know it could be a problem with my device but im still confused also i love the game very much and would recommend <33)
How do you do the secret money glitch? I got all the endings, but I've only just heard of the glitch. I read all the previous comments and even searched YouTube and Google, but the only mentions are just brief hints (and I've only ever seen any in the comments). I would appreciate it if you mentioned the glitch more in-depth somewhere in the guide when it comes out (if you don't already plan to patch it). Of course, I would love it if you added everything you mentioned in the devlog. I love this game as much as I love the Silver Thread series (both are amazing). Also, I LOVE all your games (I've 100%'ed all of them so far). Don't ever give up!
not sure how many endings i got but i loved this!! ur one of my fave developers so i was so hyped so see a new release!! this game was so fun and so mysterious!! i never would have guessed the twist :D
Um, so. I yap about a lot of stuff at the end of the VOD but I also want to make a more coherent comment here.
I really loved this game! The tiny town setting is great and the character designs are so cute! Also ur art... is tasty... I love the pixel art.
I hammered through and got all four endings, I believe (want to believe) that the one with Cain is the true end LMAO. I really like him and Rafael... (i bet that's a shocker /s) and I am totally normal about their relationship.
I'm sorry if this was not your original intention, I'm a shipper at heart and I really can't help myself OTZ
The reveal at the end about... everything. It caught me off guard but like... the moment it was said, all the pieces connected together and EVERYTHING MADE SENSE... it was really good!
I hope you have... maybe... plans for this universe/game in the future? I feel like one of the downsides was the ending feeling a little abrupt. There were still a few mysteries that I'm not 100% sure on. Namely the letter that's found in the back room of the post office? I also wasn't able to look at the data for Michel or Monday... I don't know if that's intentional or if it's because of an affection thing.
Either way, game is amazing. I will continue to think about these characters for a while SJLFKGJSHSH :DD
Ah it was actually the opposite for me! I couldn't play it on the desktop version but I managed to play it on the browser version today :) thank you though! Also it's an incredible game the REVEAL and also Eury my love...... thank you so much for making this game!!
I hope an ending guide is released for this soon! I have gotten the main three endings. Can't seem to work out how to get the fourth :,) This is SOOOO good :D The music is banging
Ah yes! I had a feeling that was the final ending. I tried failing the roll but I just assumed it was impossible haha. Good to know it isn't. I'll have to go back today and try to get it hehe. Thanks for the guidance!
seriously, spicaze never fails to make an amazing game--
like, i speedran silver thread, both games, all endings yesterday, then i did all of symbiosis as well, which was pretty cool too !! (alicia, beaford, and magnolia are my favs)
anyways, i fell in love with cain so fast--
so someone, please please please, tell me the secret money glitch or whatever it is
please, i need the ring, i need rafael to marry cain so bad--
does it have something to do with the ATM? how do i get a card??
SPOILERS DOWN THERE !!
also, i've gotten 3/4 endings:
- cain disappears
- rafael and cain escape together (please let me marry cain omg)
- rafael tries to leave town too much and the guards get mad
but i've no clue how to get the last one
i think it probs has something to do with the person that's locked themselves up in that house, right? the one we can deliver the grey letter to? i tried getting a hat and makeup to make myself seem more friendly to them, but it didn't work...
if anyone has any hints/suggestions for me, i'd really love to hear them !!
Thank you so much for playing all of them! Also the secret money glitch...has to do with Michel! It will take ages to actually get it for no actual gain though (The ring currently only gives you a stat boost.) so it's easier to wait for the next patch!
Spoilers
For the last ending, you need to fail the last roll in the church!
Very fun game as usual, really kept me wanting more. I love the general vibe of the town, the music and pixelated graphics reminded me of a Pokemon game in a way.
woahhhh this was super fun to play!!!!! i loved uncovering little parts about the story by making sure to interact with everything! i think the entire atmosphere and gameplay really adds to the story, and i also LOVE the characterization in this one! i think this is such an incredibly awesome game and i will definitely come back to check out the other endings!! :D
Ohh I enjoyed this a ton! Your games always have a wonderful charm to them, but certain late-game facts about this game made this so right up my alley I'd be so excited to see more of this! (If you so decide to down the line!)
The concept is great, the dice mechanics were unique and really cool, and the characters really intriguing! There's a lot told through subtle details I'd love to see elaborated on down the line! A lot of my lingering questions were answered by the dev log, so I'll just cheer you on and hope to see you revisit this after some time! Thank you for making this!
My last lingering regret.... not being able to give Cain the ring... ;u;
This was so much fun to play! And it was delightfully complex for a game jam game!
I enjoyed the sense of... wrongness in the town when we start off. And the characters were so much fun to meet, even if they all seemed pretty suspicious at first 😅 Eurydice was an absolute delight, and I appreciated how helpful she was even with her rather sassy personality. Cain also made me smile with his prickly attitude.
I did kind of guess the twist early on, but it was still really interesting to uncover it at the end. (I'll have to go back and see if I can make proper friends with Monday and Michel, too. Is that how you get their information?)
I'm honestly still left with a lot of questions even with knowing about why they're all there. I'm also really looking forward to the added route in the future!
Thanks so much for streaming it!! Haha yeah I do want to capture the essence of a mystery of a small town, I'm glad you enjoyed the characters!
I did lay it on pretty thick so I'm happy people caught on! Monday and Michel's route is still in progress but I do want people to get more lore from them eventually!

YOUR CREATIONS ARE AMAZING IT ALWAYS LEAVES ME SPEACHLESS EVERY TIME
awesome! looking forward to a possible expansion one day (^^ cain my beloved
absolute banger <3
when will the guide will come up ?
Can someone explain me the point of giving gifts?? I don't find any use of it
giving gifts to the ppl raises their likeness meter, so choose wisely on who you give items to
All of their designs are so cool aughghghg I wanna draw all of them
This game is awesome, can't wait to see more in the future :D
The ending was unexpected who would have thought that the ending. 😩💖💖💖💖💖

REALLY oh damnnn, i never got to that part. i'll have to check it out
I finished the game and saved it but its not letting me go back???

Hello Spica！I love this game and you art is great as ever! But I'm really curious about why are Michel's and Monday's files unacessible.
I loved it
怎么进行下去？在被黑衣人杀死后难道就结束了吗
this game is definitely my favorite of yours. although im stumped on how to get a lockpick, does anyone know?
You can buy one from the shop.
thank you!
No problem!
How do you do the secret money glitch? I got all the endings, but I've only just heard of the glitch.

I KEEP FAILING THE LAST ROLL IN THE CHURCH WAAAAAA I'VE DONE IT 20 TIMES
hello...
Um, so. I yap about a lot of stuff at the end of the VOD but I also want to make a more coherent comment here.I really loved this game! The tiny town setting is great and the character designs are so cute! Also ur art... is tasty... I love the pixel art.

Either way, game is amazing. I will continue to think about these characters for a while SJLFKGJSHSH :DD
I can't seem to play this it keeps saying the graphics failed to initialize :((
This error seems to happen in some browser version for windows, in that case I think you need to play the desktop version. Sorry for the trouble!
Ah it was actually the opposite for me! I couldn't play it on the desktop version but I managed to play it on the browser version today :) thank you though! Also it's an incredible game the REVEAL and also Eury my love...... thank you so much for making this game!!
The game is really fun! Very lovely game!
OOOH this was so lovely!! The characters are so intersting and the twist? absolutely amazing!!!
Wish I could kiss michel
The game isn't even complete and people are already falling in love with the characters. Kinda goes to show how good the game is (same, by the way).

It's a cool idea, I'll say that much.

Thank you!!
I hope an ending guide is released for this soon! I have gotten the main three endings. Can't seem to work out how to get the fourth :,) This is SOOOO good :D The music is banging
Which ones did you get? I think most people missed the one where you failed the last roll in the church! Thank you!
Ah yes! I had a feeling that was the final ending. I tried failing the roll but I just assumed it was impossible haha. Good to know it isn't. I'll have to go back today and try to get it hehe. Thanks for the guidance!
Kind of funny since for me I actually failed multiple times and kept reloading saves, I think I even got a critical failure at one point
Omfg Monday must hate you bestie :(

Any more detail on the money glitch?
Very fun game as usual, really kept me wanting more. I love the general vibe of the town, the music and pixelated graphics reminded me of a Pokemon game in a way.
