Hello, could you tell us more about the MC ? Do they have family ? What do they study in college ? What are some set facts about them ? Were there any prior signs of this sudden bloodlust ?
The MC kinda has a family, but their abusive mom is dead and their dad is a deadbeat. I’m planning on allowing for the player to choose what they study in college. Some set facts about them are that they do mourn their mom despite her awfulness, they love Delilah (the player can’t change this, though they can choose if it’s platonic or romantic), and they fucking hate Max, Delilah’s bf. And no, there weren’t any prior signs of this sudden bloodlust ;)

Will MC show a little bit of red flag signs before the murder in the prologue? And show other behaviors like stalker-ish vibe to others, maybe to Delilah (to keep her safe 100%). Would Delilah feel closer to MC since they were furious enough to kill her cheating boyfriend? I could imagine 'fans' dressing up as MC's killer persona during Halloween.
The MC has a lot of anger/grief in the prologue, but that’s about all of the red flags they have at the beginning. As for if they can have other bad behavior, like stalking, I hadn’t considered that before but I’ll think on it 🤔
As for Delilah, she finds a kind of twisted gratitude/satisfaction in the fact that the MC killed for her. So yeah, I’d say she feels closer to them after the prologue.
It’s funny enough that you mention Halloween, because that’s the date that the murder goes down haha.

I ask this on behalf of all the degenerates out here... Please let us be able to call A "daddy" at some point in the story. Thank you for your understanding. 🫡
Oh man, my first horny ask 🤣
If it fits organically, then sure, I’ll include it. Though I can’t guarantee that A will have a particularly good reaction 💀

A is older than I thought .-.
I wonder what their reaction would be if they found out that some little brat is a serial killer they are hunting :D
Yeah, A definitely sticks out from the rest of the cast in terms of their age haha. But they're a seasoned, accomplished detective, so I figured that 38 was a good age for them.
As for their reaction to the serial killer they're hunting being a college kid, well, you'll be able to discover this in-game ;)

so excited to romance Delilah. toxic yuri never loses
As a toxic yuri connoisseur myself, I have to admit that Delilah's romance is not really toxic. Sure, it's a bit... unhinged, but it's actually probably the healthiest route in the game 😭
With that being said, it's still blood-thirsty, deranged yuri, which I hope you will also enjoy anon ;)

I vote for MC and Delilah sharing a passionate, fiery kiss while they’re hiding Maxs body 😌🤌🏼❤️
WORLDS MOST UNHINGED COUPLE FOR THE WIN ❗️
This won’t happen while they hide Max’s body, but who knows, it might happen down the line 🤭
The potential that these two have to be deranged little freaks is very, very high.

Ok, no weird magic that makes you want to kill people then..
I'm curious about their family and childhood. Did something happen to them in the past? Something traumatic? Do they have a good family?
The MC does NOT have a good family life rip. Their dad was a deadbeat who ditched them when they were young, and they grew up with a resentful mom who was extremely emotionally abusive (and even sometimes physically abusive). Recently, she died, which they have very complicated feelings about. So there’s been an anger bubbling beneath the surface even before their first murder.

Yeah, A’s route is definitely gonna be interesting! The cat and mouse between them and the MC will be fun. I’m looking forward to writing it!

Is the way we kill Max already set or are we able to choose how we did it? 👀
You’re able to choose how you kill Max, yes.
The three options I have planned right now are hitting him in the head with a beer bottle, drowning him in an apple bobbing bin, and punching him into blunt force trauma.

I was just wondering why there was no detective RO. Criminal x cop is such an exciting trope
Besides, I miss What Lovely Bones which has apparently been abandoned 😞
I always wanted to include a detective RO, but I wasn’t sure if it would be possible to give them and the MC a ‘good’ ending, so I held off on it. But now, I have a new grasp on A’s character, and I’m more confident that I can create a ‘good’ ending for their romance. So I’ve added them as an RO. Their route should definitely be interesting :)
As for What Lovely Bones, I also miss that IF 😭

So… Will there be a figure of some perspicacious determined detective constantly on our trail?
Yep! And the MC had better watch their step too, because this detective is like a bloodhound when they’re on a hunt. They’ll stop at nothing to find the MC when they get put on the case.
They also to be H’s aunt/uncle haha.
I’m actually considering making them an RO 🤔
Edit: so my friend just convinced me to make them an RO, I guess I’m adding them to the pinned post haha. Check the pinned post to see them!

Is the story modern fantasy? Does this bloodlust have some… unnatural origin?
The story isn’t a modern fantasy, nope. The MC is just off their rocker haha. When they kill Max (Delilah’s shitty boyfriend), they find that they actually like it a lot.

What kind of killer can we be? Are we able to choose our morals? To say “lol imma kill that guy” or can we be Dexter, and target people for specific reasons?
Yes, the MC will absolutely be able to choose their morals! Their bloodlust remains there, but they can choose whether to target people for reasons they deem justifiable and or not. For example, the MC could choose to kill a guy who beats his wife, or they could choose to kill some random guy who annoyed them a bit too much on a bad day. It’s a spectrum.

Omg…..An iF where MC can be a literal walking red/black flag, omg i love you, I LOVE PLAYING AS MORALLY GRAY/EVIL MC’S‼️‼️
Screw a red flag, the MC can be a whole red banner haha. As much as you enjoy playing morally gray/evil MCs, I love writing them ;)
Thanks for your kind words!

When I read summary I was excited that we get to be the killer (or a killer) instead of the victim. So is MC a serial killer after the prologue? And will they have certain killing methods?
I will be super interested when the prologue comes out 😊
Yep, the MC becomes a serial killer through the duration of the game. The murder that takes place in the prologue is the first of several ;). And yes, they’ll be able to have certain killing methods! At least, that’s my plan as of right now.
Thanks for your kind words! I’m looking forward to getting the demo to you 😁

you got my full attention, I love MCs that kind of end up horrible or try to fight against themselves it's always so much fun! my favorite kind of MCs❤️
and random question... do you have any fan facts about any of the characters? if you like me to pick a character maybe something about MC that's set in stone that's not a spoiler? or a random fact about Hugo/Helga maybe?
Thanks for your kind words! The MC is definitely a huge red flag haha. Whether they embrace that or try to fight against it is up to them, but it’s still a part of who they are.
As for a random fact about H, I’ll give you two:
1) If it’s Hugo, he’s his father’s pariah, but if it’s Helga she’s the apple of her father’s eye.
2) Part of the reason that H worships the MC’s serial killing persona so much is because of who one of their victims is.
