Thanks that you liked it.

I chose this scene because it was one of the scenes with the least spoilers.

Good for you Relux! Keep up the good work. I have a soft spot for projects that refuse to die. ^_^...even if HOME is the only horror RPG I've ever enjoyed.

I don't even think Duke Serkol would let me abandon the project. The time that I took a year long break and almost threw the project I checked my e-mail and saw that he e-mailed me for one entire year at least once a week hoping for the project to not die. XD

Also, tHotSA would be the first game that ever included all 7 arts as part of the gameplay, ambiance AND plot, which is one of the reasons I decided to make this game. Also, if I finish it this year, this will be the first project that I ever managed to bring to an end.

Lastly, on lesser note, I will be finally able to change my title from "Bloody Beginner" to "Master of the Seven Arts". XD

Oh wow. Re-reading my last post made me cringe in the depths of my soul.

Anyway, the project is now alive again. I have also ported it now to the Steam version of RM2k3. There is now is a trailer: https://youtu.be/XqeC1QPqyjs (https://youtu.be/XqeC1QPqyjs).

And a new longer longer demo as an apology: https://rpgmaker.net/games/5539/downloads/13267/

Nice, it's impressive you manage to stick with a project for so long. I usually gets bored and move on to something else within a month or two.

Haven't had time to check the demo out yet. But I watched the trailer, I really like the part with the scribbled over faces.

Haha,  I wouldn't say I really stuck to it since before the start of this year there wasn't really much work being done on it. And to be honest I am the kind guy who never really let's a project die but just goes on hiatus because leaving something forever unfinished would just consume me from the inside. This was always in the back of my mind in the years I didn't work on it. So as I finished my master's this year I am using the extra free time I have now to finish it and some of my other projects.

But I have been working on other stuff too, like a deep-dive series on the entirety of the Digimon Franchise, fanfiction, doing some VA stuff and even began to stream a little bit(mostly just working the aforementioned digimon deep-dive series, since I found to be more productive while streaming due to the feeling of being watched, even if no one is watching). So this helps avoiding getting bored on working on just the same thing all the time.
