it's so fun getting the different posabilities, choices and 'bosses' the character interactions and different things you can do. The character designs are cool and the different enemies gets me thinking of the game. 10/10 so Glad I played this
got a 100% till skin thing, a very interesting game u have, tho i dont understand whats happening with the dream diary it is still fun to see and the music is nice to hear, only thing i havnt done is translate lunas words using the translator and havnt broken the mirror (if anyone would kindly send an image of the translator that would be very nice), and the bosses are nice and easy to cheese which i like (cigs + nightshade rule)
There's no typos aside from you being yov (which they know about and know to fix), the times you thought it said 96 was actually a % so replace the 'wt' with a 'd'
When dying as Luna and beating Real Mary, I got a bunch of snake scales, which I used on 60%, getting me to 98%, and I assume I wasn't meant to do this, because I got into a fight with No-Eye Soft. Beating them unlocked the Noire memory
Luna and Snake Scales are usually the last things that players unlock in the game, that's why they're so op, this is intended. It's like a way to unlock and see everything you missed in previous runs
Ok I have to take a moment to comment on this because I did not expect that!- I'll try to say it as subtly as possible but-
possible spoilers ahead!:
I did not expect you guys to be so prepared for a "smartass" scenario. I was shocked by how well-thought-out it was! Glad to have known ya, I promise to be kinder with my scales next time ;)
P.S- while I'm here, that unexpected video gets me every time! I wonder if it has any relevance... thank you for your incredible work I am so mesmerized by it! Amazing!
I honestly enjoyed this game, very good and also I love the fact you get to see so much during this demo! Graphics are good, the fact you can easily learn which room gives what is also decent. Also the fact that you can damage enemies with cigarettes with right upgrade is amazing!
Only issue is; I don't really know how to be prepared well enough to fight bosses. As you'll see in my gameplay, I did one crucial misplay at the end of the video, but I don't know if it would even matter.
In the end I think it's a bit challenging game; hp is an important resource so using bullets at the beginning is not a bad deal; just make sure to use it efficiently (you won't be able to always finish off the opponent without it damaging you, so you might as well do it with the knife).
Also, just started playing Livid Meadow. Anyone who has not played it yet and likes No skin absolutely needs too. I will not spoil anything but I will say its worth your time :)
What does the 96 mean its like sorta combined i have the picture of the translator and it isn't on there also the 8 should be a 7 maybe, ps this in the luna fight
If you do ever port this to switch in the future it will be something I buy right away. You did such an amazing job on this game and as a 3D animator I have found it extremely inspiring! I am so excited for the full release and NoEye-Soft forever has my support. 5 star rating from me and I know more will discover this masterpiece! (Also checking out your other work and cant wait to see what else you have made)
I downloaded the demo on steam, and ive gotta say... this is the best goddamn demo ive ever played! I played for 6 hours straight right after downloading it and im pretty sure ive completed everything! I loved it to bits and its much like other games such as undertale and inscryption which i loved to bits! I can't wait to see/play more. NoEye-Soft You've got all the support in the world from me!!
I don't know where I could report bugs (or typos) but I'll put it here I guess, during the initial combat start text with Luna, there are two times where =18 should be replaced with =17, these two instances are in the third line of dialogue before the fight actually starts.
Now I normally don't like rougelike games, I like my progress to actual be progress, but this? This is a gem of a game that I now enjoy greatly and plan to continue more for those sweet, sweet recollection. The story/plot idea is great, the implementation is fantastic, even the hardness/RNG hits just the sweet spot - I was AGHAST at the very end of the second level/area and the sheer audacity of it. Already used all my stuff and BAM, reminder that someone's waiting for their skin and this time they're angry.
Will definitely be keeping an eye on this game, and I wish you all the luck on the full release and porting it to other places (this would be great on the Switch, I agree).
like the story and the art style but the game is there a way to increase the difficulty i have to keep playing but i won the first run and i dont even play turn based games and is it intetional?
Difficulty is subjective, some people may find it too hard and others too easy, and luck plays a significant role in this game! However, the final game will be much more challenging
I love love LOVE the vibes and the potential this game has for modding... I would love to see mod support or even a mod builder in the game at some point, but even without it, I'm a huge fan<3
Just fully completed the Demo, I'm so excited to see more!! (Yes, I did skip percentages with the Snake Scales item with the Razor Blade) Even if the support isn't added, I might have to dabble in programming to try because the game is so captivating. I love the art style and the mechanics, I really hope you're able to see this game to its fullest!!
I just recently got into the playdate scene and think this would be an amazing game for that platform! I dont know how hard a port would be, but i would love to play this on the go
this is an absolutely amazing, fun, and unique game :). as a fan of roguelikes, I can't wait to see what this game has to offer in the future. I downloaded it yesterday and didn't really stop playing until I unlocked all of the content present (which are called memories). even though the game is at such an early stage, it really already is a blast and has decent replayability.
feedback I do have:
* possibly implement a seen-text auto skipper (if there isn't one in the game that I'm missing) to avoid having to spam Z all the time
* when staring into the mirror in the 2nd area, the text that displays AFTER selecting the staring option says you get 2 poison, when it should say 4.
* maybe display your character's abilities/passives in the game? idk if it does, but for example when I first played Luna I wasn't able to really check what her Axe's effect was because I didn't look at it beforehand.
* balancing feedback, but it's really easy to abuse Luna to get the skin percentage threshold for fighting Her. I would give a limit to how many times the player can fight The Real Mary before they just die for good. However, if this is intended, I understand and think it's fine. then of course there's the really strong things and combos that people have already posted here that need tuning down to keep some challenge in the game.
amazing game and I'll be sticking around to see what's new :)
Absolutley an amazing game, I cannot even imagine the amount of work, talent, and passion went into this one game. The story is extremely interesting, I'm still trying to peice it all together, the characters and character designs are incredible (my favorite being the Crimson dancers), the images, despite being pixilated, have never failed to disturb me. The foreshadowing in this is crazy. Everything connects and it's honestly crazy how NoEye-Soft was able to do this. The actual dread I felt during certian events (which I won't spoil ;)) is unlike anything I have felt before. I actually felt my stomach drop and I sat there for a moment in pure awe, curiosity, and fear.
This game got me absolutely hooked, and it's only the demo! I really love the athmosphare, the horror aspects of it. The randomness doesn't feel frustrating at all, which is a very nice surprise!
Absolutely incredible! I haven't played such a perfect roguelike since the binding of isaac. Keep up the amazing work! The more I play the more intrigued I become
Amazing game! I have a few personal feedbacks (currently only gui wise) that could be considered later in development (cause its just details). I think it would be nice to add a bar that fills up when holding "x" to go back, so that it feels more tactile. Also, is there perhaps another way of displaying the long monologue of "noeye-soft" (maybe you could investigate fonts that gives a corrupted look). Cause personally, not fluent in binaries lol and typing it in a translator takes a little bit of time.
All in all, I love it (especially the design). Totally worth grinding until 2am for the 6th memory.
don't listen to him, the binary stays!! maybe make a character who can read all the messages without needing a translator / a cheat setting once the game is beaten?
I love it! I find it super fun, not only the mechanics but the hidden story and all the secrets there are to discover, I specifically loved how the last memory is unlocked, I found it super intelligent and well thought out and it very pleasantly rewarded my curiosity when experimenting with a demo. Much love from Spain!
i really, really love this game. awesome stuff. can't wait for the full release.
that said, there are a few errors with the grammar. i think i saw somewhere that english isn't your first language, so i understand. but did you want some feedback on the errors, or someone to proofread it? sorry if this has already been mentioned!!
Your English is fantastic! It's mostly minor things.
Just gonna list some here so that other people can chime in if they think I'm wrong:
- "Choose the character" might be considered a bit awkward; "Choose your character" is standard (but "the character" has a certain detached charm...so I'd argue you should leave it as is). Other options are "Choose character" or "Character select/ion". (edit: I noticed it says "Choose the location", so you can probably ignore me)
- "When you are about to die, you lose X percentage of skin finding instead" or "Lose X percentage of skin finding instead of dying" is more natural than the current version.
- I think there was something that said "Your aim have greatly improved", when it should be "has greatly improved".
I had an amazing time playing the demo, I just sat down for 6 hours and did just about everything I could possible do save for using the special knife on the mirror. I wanted to let you know that in the Luna fight, two of the "you" in the secret code is actually spelt "yov". If this is intentional or I missed something that is fine too. :)
this game is awesome man. the atmosphere, the sound and character designs.. can't wait to release on steam! also, when it's time, in mobile! (I saw you don't have plans to port it to mobile, but as I said, please consider!) xD
Just finished (what I believe to be) all the secrets in this demo. This is an incredible amount of gameplay and lore for a "demo." Serious props for the whole thing, from ost to artstyle and just the whole idea in general is brilliant. Can't wait for what's to come.
I do have one question for the dev:
Slight spoiler warning from here:
Are there any more secrets other than all of the memories including noire and root, giving the lighter to rugs and recruiting the fossil, that I've missed? You don't have to spell it out in binary for me but just so I know if there's more content to be explored in the demo, because if so I'll get right back into secret hunting. I've gotten all events in the rooms and killed and talked to all bosses too.
If there was something else to be discovered, my best bet would be that it's revolving around a special interaction with an enemy and predator and prey, though it seemed like there were no unique interactions with it so far.
With that out of the way, once more well done on the game so far!
1) If I buy this here will I get the full version once it is out?
2) If purchasing it here gets me the full version and all subsequent updates once the are released, what is your current price idea for Steam? My reason being, that I would then like to match that price here.
I think that everyone who has already purchased the game will be able to download the full game when it's released, but I'm not 100% sure, so don't purchase it yet if you want to "preorder" the game. I think that the final price will be around 5/6 dollars
Man I'm having a blast. I'm just missing one recollection which I'm guessing you get from normally fighting NO-SKIN.
What I'm trying to figure is how to get the NoEye-Soft boss again and the HER boss at the end. I got it by accident and can't seem to replicate it... any help?
Edit: NVM just got it... just gotta get that last item from the frogs in the second part... bring a lot of heals and nightshades lol. Can't wait for more!!! (that "unexpected event" where it was the dude doing weird shit with it's eye had me sweating man)

Could not recommend a better game
it's so fun getting the different posabilities, choices and 'bosses' the character interactions and different things you can do. The character designs are cool and the different enemies gets me thinking of the game. 10/10 so Glad I played this
Thank you for your feedback!
got a 100% till skin thing, a very interesting game u have, tho i dont understand whats happening with the dream diary it is still fun to see and the music is nice to hear, only thing i havnt done is translate lunas words using the translator and havnt broken the mirror (if anyone would kindly send an image of the translator that would be very nice), and the bosses are nice and easy to cheese which i like (cigs + nightshade rule)
Here you are at last little sister are yov still cnvincd you are me such a failure doesnt deserve to live
die youre jvst a pitiful copy im the original (that is exactly what luna says, typos included, idk why theres typos but i translated it directly)
There's no typos aside from you being yov (which they know about and know to fix), the times you thought it said 96 was actually a % so replace the 'wt' with a 'd'
ah that makes far more sense, thx
I got that screenshot for you
When dying as Luna and beating Real Mary, I got a bunch of snake scales, which I used on 60%, getting me to 98%, and I assume I wasn't meant to do this, because I got into a fight with No-Eye Soft. Beating them unlocked the Noire memory
Also, when using the scales on 28%, I completely skipped the boss. This item is broken.
Luna and Snake Scales are usually the last things that players unlock in the game, that's why they're so op, this is intended. It's like a way to unlock and see everything you missed in previous runs

thank you for your incredible work I am so mesmerized by it! Amazing!
Thank you, I appreciate your kind words
so so SO good
I'm absolutely amazed by the vibes this game has - can't wait for the full version!
I'm hooked. Can't wait to see the full version, it's insane how much there already is in the demo
How do i beat the game? its taking a long time and i don't know if what im doing is useless
Lots of experimentation, listen to what each character says and try everything :) It will take some time but it is absolutely worth it!
Thank you so much for stopping by and chatting in the stream! once again I can't wait to see more! <3 <3 Made my night! ( A truly unexpected event!)
actually goated, finished it in one sitting
Only issue is; I don't really know how to be prepared well enough to fight bosses. As you'll see in my gameplay, I did one crucial misplay at the end of the video, but I don't know if it would even matter.

What does the 96 mean its like sorta combined i have the picture of the translator and it isn't on there also the 8 should be a 7 maybe, ps this in the luna fight
That's % I think, it means "D"
could u just say the entire secret message im kinda done wit the game
Fired lol
If you do ever port this to switch in the future it will be something I buy right away. You did such an amazing job on this game and as a 3D animator I have found it extremely inspiring!

Difficulty is subjective, some people may find it too hard and others too easy, and luck plays a significant role in this game! However, the final game will be much more challenging
I mean it is a demo so
this is rogue like
difficulty comes from your luck on your runs to get resources.
can you say that you get every run done?
I only did 2 runs so far but yes
I love love LOVE the vibes and the potential this game has for modding... I would love to see mod support or even a mod builder in the game at some point, but even without it, I'm a huge fan<3
Thank you for your feedback! Mod support is not planned at the moment, but it's not unlikely

I just recently got into the playdate scene and think this would be an amazing game for that platform! I dont know how hard a port would be, but i would love to play this on the go
I think this game suits portability well, but I was thinking more about something like the Switch
Definitely can see that as well! I just like the idea of the playdate because more money goes to developers which is always a bonus
I started playing this last night and uhhh i was a lil addicted. I stayed up almost all night. I'm excited for the full release. :)
Already have three hours of gameplay and I'm in love with this game!
pretty sure its an unexpected event
this is an absolutely amazing, fun, and unique game :). as a fan of roguelikes, I can't wait to see what this game has to offer in the future.

Much love from Spain!
i love the game, i have been playing for hours. i cant find the last memory and the "Her" enemy does anybody have some advice?.
Seek the one the headless man fears.
who is the headless and how do i find who he fears
talk to him in the 2nd area
To battle Her. you have to go past the 62% skin threshold.
it took allot of time but i killed her
i really, really love this game. awesome stuff. can't wait for the full release.
that said, there are a few errors with the grammar. i think i saw somewhere that english isn't your first language, so i understand. but did you want some feedback on the errors, or someone to proofread it? sorry if this has already been mentioned!!
keep it up dude!!
Yep, I'm an Italian dev and my English is far from being good. Feel free to contact me to report any grammar issues, I would appreciate it!

I'll let you know if I find any more.

With that out of the way, once more well done on the game so far!
Have you used the The Translator cipher to figure out those secret messages?
Yup Luna's cipher and no eye softs binary I've deciphered.
Edit: or are you saying there are more messages for the cipher?
Based on what you said, I think there's still something you haven't seen ;)
Dang how big is this demo lmao.
Any hints perhaps? :o
MORE? Has it smth to do with the Rhinoceros skull, or where do i need to search?
Man the game is fun, wish could be played on the go (phone) since it had simple controls and all. :)
So I have 2 questions.
1) If I buy this here will I get the full version once it is out?
2) If purchasing it here gets me the full version and all subsequent updates once the are released, what is your current price idea for Steam? My reason being, that I would then like to match that price here.
I think that everyone who has already purchased the game will be able to download the full game when it's released, but I'm not 100% sure, so don't purchase it yet if you want to "preorder" the game. I think that the final price will be around 5/6 dollars
No worries... will support it anyway. Will just hope for the best. :D
Hey, for some reason itch don't send me the notification. Thank you for your huge support <3
Sure Thing. :)
Went with 6 Euro... should be a bit more then 6 dollars. :D
Seen gameplay, linux version pls
This is such a fun game and I cant wait to see where it goes :D
Man I'm having a blast. I'm just missing one recollection which I'm guessing you get from normally fighting NO-SKIN.
What I'm trying to figure is how to get the NoEye-Soft boss again and the HER boss at the end. I got it by accident and can't seem to replicate it... any help?
Edit: NVM just got it... just gotta get that last item from the frogs in the second part... bring a lot of heals and nightshades lol. Can't wait for more!!! (that "unexpected event" where it was the dude doing weird shit with it's eye had me sweating man)
Same!
Is it possible to do a pacifist run of this? I've tried doing it for a while but I've only gotten to about 40 percent
I don't think so because you can't run from No-Skin Man at the end.
I would absolutely love a mobile game version of this.
