I’m a bit stuck, after you escape from the moms house and get back on the street where are you supposed to go? I keep getting captured by the monsters and running back to the start doesn’t seem to do anything, I just get stuck on a tree

Edit nevermind found it, turns out I had to go upstairs

I recall two scenes from the earlier version that I haven’t been able to find / unlock yet:

  1. Eating from the bin in the diner and falling through the hole in the diner bathroom.
  2. The second dream sequence with Alex in her / your home.

Are those still in the game?

There may be an error with the numbering of the chapter 2 endings. I got the endings “00 of 02” and “01 of 02”. I have searched and found no hint for a third so I guess they are labeled wrongly.

During the snak run a door burst open but if you go to it you can not enter nor can you interact with it and afterwards it is shown again closed but you can not interact.

The kitchen event can be started from the north of the dining table. The event softlocks than because the player character blocks a path.

I only found 1 new end in chapter 2 any suggestion?

Lots of small nice touches over the last demo. I assume the two endings in the dinner sequence were taken out. The new art assets really help sell the experience and made it feel a bit more done even though there wasn’t a lot of raw gameplay added between the last demo and this one. The small tease at the end was interesting, even though I didn’t like one implication it has. Chapter 3 just focusing on the new character (I know its her current boyfriend, but he is newish to the player) would be a bit of a let down, mostly cause of how invested I am from the perspective of Frankie’s personal horror. Ah well, it’s a small concern.

Those were indeed removed from the Redux version of chapter two. Something very similar to that scene with Alex will show up again down the line, but I didn’t like where it was placed and I wanted to build up to it in a different way.

I wasn’t too happy with the two endings that I removed. They were more a result of feeling like I had to have more bad endings, but from a narrative point of view I felt like they were too out-there, too quickly. I want to build up to the supernatural elements taking place in ‘the real world’ a bit more naturally. There’ll be similar bad endings down the line, though.

There are two endings in the entirety of chapter two (the one in the restaurant has a slight variation now, depending on if Kimmy has joined up) and it should display ‘02 of 02 endings found’ if you get both of them in a single playthrough.

Is the pursuer enemy spawning for you? You aren’t meant to go in that door, it’s sole purpose is to jumpscare you lol

Thank you, will get this fixed for the next release!

There is only one new ending in the ‘new content’ section of chapter two.

Thank you for the kind words! And don’t worry, the demo for chapter three is not indicative of the entirety of that chapter. It picks up exactly where 2 left off after a short interlude! It’s definitely going to be the longest chapter so far.


Thanks for all the feedback everyone, and all the itch.io follows you’ve been showering me with!

I got ending 00 for finishing chapter 2 with the protein bar eaten and ending 01 with the hospital food eaten.
Ending 02 in the drive through I avoided.

I manuvered the Pursuer so, that I could get back to the door. And despawned it by entering the twins room.
The main error remains, that afterwards the door no longer shows that it is “Locked.”.

I wouldn’t actually mind if we switched to Frankie’s boyfriend’s POV for some time (with some fattening shenanigans perhaps?). More male content is always appreciated~

This is really well done! Wonderful horror atmosphere, and really nice art.

Finished up to the end of Chapter Two. Hoooooh, can’t wait to see where this goes.

I’d like to report what seems to be a minor bug :0
If, when the creature breaks in through the window in the Big Patty you try to move before the “RUN!” prompt, Frankie will turn around and face the direction you were trying to move in, only to then step back. If you happen to be facing down/south, she will step towards the monster, essentially making it impossible to escape (or forcing you to use the bat if you have it).

Also there’s an item shining in the freezer but you can’t interact with it?
You can interact with it after re-entering the freezer, and it’s the broken baseball bat again.
Another thing, but not sure if this is a bug but most likely, but doors that are locked are interacted with multiple times if you try to examine them while holding down an arrow key, resulting in “Locked. Locked. Locked”.

Was quite sudden with all that happened recently, I could only wish you a Merry Christmas though.
I’m certain there’s some reason for your departure, I simply see it as another long awaited return like last time…
