The Doctrine of Perseverance is an indie horror and mystery game currently in development. It is being developed in RPG Maker MV and includes visual novel elements. A freeware demo was released in 2016. At the time of initial demo release, I was a senior in high school. Since then, I have spent many years developing my art and have returned to my first project. The game is still early in development, so everything is still subject to change, but I still hope you find interest in my project! I'd like to showcase some updated portraits from the 2016 version.
Melrose, the main character. The story begins on her thirteenth birthday (this portrait not yet shown), where a traumatic house fire takes place. Three years later, on Melrose's sixteenth birthday, the events of the past manifest themselves once again, showing that what happened on that day is far from over.
Suzetta, a childhood friend of Melrose. A stark contrast to Melrose, she is upbeat, mischievous, and more often than not, the most mature in their friend group. Her father is a close friend of Melrose's mom, Florence.
Silas is a friend of both Melrose and Suzetta and also Suzetta's neighbor. His family harbors distrust toward Melrose's family and the renowned 'founding families' in the city of Noxton.
For those interested in the previous rendition of the game, @flareblitzedyt has a great playthrough and playlist featuring it on Youtube. Although, I must advice that many story elements have changed since then.
The previous demo was taken down a couple of years ago, but the game page for it is still up. I intend to update it in the future. Thank you for reading, stayed tuned for additional information and screenshots!
Pov you try to be nice but clients think you're a free therapist...
I am officially off my break ( yeah told you i'm not good at taking long break ) which mean apple bag content ! A lot of stuff will change in the future update and this screenshot is just to showcase a new character you'll encounter in game, wonder if her name seems familiar...
You were always obsessed with a specific love... not one advertised in romance novels or movies, but a love that consumes and corrupts... One of obsession and possession. No matter what you did, you could never find that love...
So you decided... why not make this perfect love instead?
A game that was suppose to be made for the Yandere Jam 2023, but I didn't have enough time to finish, so now I'm going to try to finish it by the end of the summer at latest.

I'll try to give progress updates at least once a week so people know that I'm working on it. We'll see how it goes.
I'm sure everyone has the species of Ohse's lizard at the top of their minds. Luckily for you, I'm here to help.
Ohse's lizard is first introduced to us in episode #15 (A Ghost's Chamber), seemingly free roaming around Ohse's room, and conveniently has a small visual:
On first inspection, this strikes us as quite similar to a Komodo dragon, however for all crsm has it's more,, fantastical,,? elements, I'm not entertaining this.
However no worries. This is just clickbait.
Thankfully we have two far more helpful visuals:
Ohse's bedroom presents us with a far more realistic pet lizard (+ setup) but even better comes the twitter accompaniment visual, showing us what looks like a fairly clear skink!
Yay! you're thinking, We did it! A Skink! but hold on. there's more.
Skinks belong to the Scincidae family, which contains over 1500 described species, and is one of the most diverse lizard families overall.
From the more detailed episode visual, my initial (cliche) impression was that it could be a blue-tongued skink - good temperment, common pets, legal in Japan - and visually, it would arguably fit. However, considering Ohse takes his lizard around during season 2, I would consider the slightly smaller pink-tongued skink as well.
Both exhibit the characteristic stripes, the cute baby big head, and the pale/potentially yellow-ish main body colouring.
To pick between the two, I would say that while blue tongued skinks do make more common pets, and the banding is more similar to that seen in crsm, the pink-tongued may have a slightly more accurate face shape, and build. However. Am I lizard expert? Clearly not. Take from that what you will.
Anyway. Less eventful than I hoped but Ohse's lizard is a skink truther here. enjoy
