Whoa, what's with that creepy guy?

Last week, I got my friend to test the uncompleted chapter one.

And guess what? I got him shat his pant during the finale of Kayako's part. XD

The main cause is the guy on the left. I've created 3 kind of enemies in the game. They are:
-The Red Hitodama, the vengeful soul that will damage the player and saying weird dialogue whenever it hits a player.

-The Purple Hitodama, an extremely contaminated soul. It has absorbed many dark spirit and as the result, this extremely corrupted soul was born. It has a powerful attack that will banish the player away and dealing heavy damage.

-The Possessed Corpse, a corpse that is possessed by many vengeful spirit. They are a little bit faster than zombies, and they are pretty much intelligent. Only a few of them can still run to chase the player. If  the player is caught, prepare for a gruesome screen... :D

All of the enemies above can be exorcised, except for the possessed corpse.

In order to do that, the player will have to find an ofuda (exorcism charm) and touch the soul. The player can only do this when they're playing as Yuuki. Note that an ofuda will only work once and if the player revisit the area, the soul will be back.

Taiga is the only deutragonist that can do exorcism. He will be using a katana imbued with an exorcist's soul to exorcise the spirits. Whoops! I just did a spoiler... :P

Well, that's it for today's blog post. See you guys/gals really soon :D

Character Introduction: Kayako, plus some pict so far.

The character above is the deutragonist of the story, Kayako. She will be one of the character which the player will play as. On the screenshot above, Kayako is shown wandering in the Kirihara Mansion and on another place which is not shown on the demo.

Kayako is a tsundere type. She will kick the hell out of anyone that picked a fight with her. Oh, note that she is a black belt in karate. Kayako is also the daughter of an extremely rich businessman.

Yuuki and Kayako first met in kindergarten when Yuuki was getting bullied by several other kids. After Kayako dealt with them, Yuuki noticed that Kayako was injured in the fight, and Yuuki immidiately treated the wound. Since then, Kayako became Yuuki's first friend and became extremely loyal to her.

Yuuki, Kayako, and Taiga are known the YuKaTa group in their school. The three of them are always together. Whenever Yuuki is getting bullied by another person, Kayako is the one that usually fend them off (for good) in somewhat, "cruel" way...

Kayako's relationship to Yuuki is similar to Seiko to Naomi from Corpse Party. Kayako cares deeply for Yuuki and will always be there to help her. On the other hand, Kayako's relationship to Taiga is pretty much like Kaoru to Junichi from Amagami, but the different is that Kayako has no feelings toward Taiga. Kayako knows that Taiga likes Yuuki, but she feels that Taiga is not worthy enough for Yuuki. She often teases Taiga about Yuuki and will separate them whenever Taiga tried to talk to her personally.

Currently, chapter one is nearing 80% completion. I just need to finish off Kayako's part and do some developing for Taiga's part.

About Chapter Zero

In the chapter zero, which is the only chapter in the beta version, I actually based it on Fatal Frame III's early chapter. For those who had played the game (Fatal Frame III), you surely will know that the running scene is based on how Rei (the Fatal Frame III protagonist) trying to run away from the tattooed priest (the main ghost of Fatal Frame III).

The "urban legend researching" part is actually helpful for the next chapter. You'll know why when it is released. :P

The deutragonist that you met in chapter zero (Taiga) is also a playable character in later chapter. I've planned to make something different when you're playing as him in the later chapter...especially for the horror atmosphere.

Well, that's it for the current information about chapter zero. Next time I'm going to post a few things about chapter one (which I'm currently working on) and about the main characters. See ya!

Hey! The game's still been working on!

So recently I feel that people were thinking that I've abandoned the "Nightmare Of The Snow". In order to show the progress of my game development and asking about other people's opinion about the game, I created this blog exclusively for it.

Every weekend, I'm gonna post any new things about my game. Don't worry, I won't make any spoiler :P

So firstly, I'm gonna ask you guys/gals....what do you think of this game? Is it difficult? Is it lacking more horror feeling? Leave a comment below so I can read and reply it :)


PS: I'm sorry for my english. It's not my native language, but somehow, I can speak english better than my native language (Indonesian) XD



^^^^^ To be honest, I've fell in love with my own character (Yuuki). She's so cute in my opinion :P
