I like your game very much; I haven't enjoyed anything as much in a long time. It's a great story that will entertain anyone who aches for a game like the Mother games produced.
That said, mechanics-wise I felt a little underchallenged, even on the highest difficulty. The damage adjustments are too minimal for a seasoned roleplayer, and I had to force myself to use my health items because I never felt in danger of losing. Additionally, I had hoped that on the highest difficulty, status ailments would linger after battle.
All that being as it is, I still had a lot of fun with this game, and am currently on an Achievement run on Steam.
Grinding for fortune tickets in the Mind Mines SUCKS. It gets really boring really quickly. What if you could pay a multiple of the entrance fee to multiply the tickets you find?
I've had this as something I've wanted to play for years, never really finding the right time of my life until now and god, I am so glad I finally pulled the trigger. I am SO fucking in love with this game. Charming, engaging, painful, spooky, it's everything anyone could ever want out of an rpg and more! I love the mechanics, the characters, the aesthetics and vibes...I was delighted to meet every new enemy and explore every new and horrible location and god the music!!!! I was grooving the whole time! And the combat got me amped as hell, there's something so satisfying about working out the perfect way to smash any enemy comp that never got old, as a fan of smashing shit with a baseball bat IRL it felt particularly good playing around with those mechanics and making them truly monstrous free damage haha. A magical bit of art to experience at a time of my life where burnout with work and adult responsibilities had me convinced I might really never enjoy a videogame again. I'll hold Daybreak and it's survivors in my heart for the rest of my life...and not just because I can now never be normal about Alicia and Miriam, sorry, sorry, their chemistry is too good, what if they had to be room-mates, what if they had to share a bed, what if they had to endure the friction of mundane living together as two very independent and willful women, what if they got so mad about it they kissed???????? These are thoughts that have kept me up at night, and will for many nights to come.
Thankyou so much for making this wonderful experience and thankyou for continuing to make things! Hopefully it will not take me four years to work up the right mindset to play the next one ehe. Truly an unforgettable and beautiful little ride.
Thanks so much for your comment, this totally made my day! I'm so glad this was so enjoyable in a time when you really needed it, that's so awesome!! And your idea of what happens to Alicia and Miriam afterwards might not be far off at all haha

I don't know if this is intentional, but if you use the secret code, Miriam's dialogue complaining about drinking from the pools is gone.
The Mortis Bat should be strong against ghosts.
lol it really should
Update the game, then.
How does the magic number work? Is it a percentage, or a count? What qualifies as a "secret"?
Here's a link to a translation key I made in mspaint. https://imgur.com/a/7290215-rZ3jDcv
Z is never used in the second font AFAIK.

BUG REPORT: When I go to check on the kids in the bunker, they don't disappear from the building near the school.
Thanks for finding that! Seems there's a small window of time where they both exist, I'll have to figure out what I messed up
Hi can anyone give me a hint on where to use the key of regret and where to locate the right triangle?
