Really a very fun and fascinating little experience of a game, love that each of the endings felt intuitive to achieve and that the story had subtle shifts in each attempt to make it feel fresh and not repetitive.
The LOAD button was a huge help likewise for not requiring a complete replay if you mess up.
I would like to help making a translation in Portuguese if you wish :D
Unfortunately I don't actually have the same social media as yours, but I have a Facebook and an e-mail account to communicate. It's my first time using Itch, so I don't know either how to use it, that's why I'm showing these other ways for us to talk.
Hey there! Thanks a lot for your kind offer and I really appreciate it. However, I already had someone reach out to me to translate the game into Portuguese. Thank you though!
You're too kind! I'm glad you enjoyed my game. I should be the one thanking Shade for translating the game into Korean, and all of you for giving it a try!
I adore this game! The art is super cool and very eye-catching, and the writing is engaging and even humorous! I found myself getting invested in the story and characters. I would love to see more games with Taylor and Dr. Krueger in the future! In the meantime, I will definitely be checking out the rest of the dev's games. Amazing work <3
That was really good expirience. This game was... well, it's hard to describe but hypnotizing? My first route was obviously 1/3 bad end. But... After that (based on my expirience in other games) I started to doing everything opposite. (well it doesn't work because I didn't know what I should do with Rorschach's test. Hehe thank you walkthroughs.) well after that, I had to use my Sharingan (XD) to pass game with cup and ball. that was really fun! (DO NOT REMIND ME THOSE JUMPSCARES XD I almost died)
In my opinion? 10/10 I will recomend my friends this game
Would you mind elaborating on the problem? Is there sound effect at all? Or only music is absent? You could try looking into preferences and see if any of them is muted (which is under the textbox after game starts). And sometimes switching audio output devices could result in music not playing, but re-opening the game should fix it automatically. Let me know.
hi, well i mean that there is no sound in the game, i tried to close and open the game several times and nothing, i chekced the preferences too and y dont have nothing muted, but i was trying and i saw that this is with the version that has translations,the original version only in english does have sound.I guess i'll been playing the version in english, in any case thanks for response ^_^
That is really weird. No one else has come to me with the same issue, so I can't say for sure. If you'd like, you could try going to %APPDATA%/renpy then delete the Taylor_1_1_0 folder inside it, then delete the game and redownload it. Let me know if this works.
sorry i did not find that,i think that was my bad but i have a question, is normal that every time i enter the game this asks me the language? also, i tried to play a little while and in the part when taylor watch the commercial instead of this she watch the imagen of a weird dr albert like sometimes appear in the game but then she reacted like she had seen the normal commercial, i dont know if this is normal, and as i said this is only with the version that has translations, anyway thank u for this beautiful game :^)
Hi, no this is not normal. It should only ask for the language once. Then it sounds like my suspicion could be correct and there's something wrong with your save files, so you would need to find the folder I mentioned before. Hit the Windows button and type "%APPDATA%", that should lead you to that folder. Then proceed to click "renpy" and delete the "Taylor_1_1_0" folder in it. For the commercial, that is normal. And just a correction, Taylor is not a girl; they're non-binary and they use they/them pronouns. Hope this helps!
Edit: I re-read your comment and I noticed that I misunderstood the commercial part. Could you elaborate on what exactly did Taylor watch? At this point, I think something might have went wrong when you were downloading the game.
After playing all the games, I am crying because it is so fun. I was also surprised by the order of ending with intent. Thank you for making a good game. I love this game.갓겜
A spooky game for Halloween is just what the doctor ordered! I liked it. Got all three of the endings in the recommended order. It was a nice touch that there were some differences before the ending too, such as the different videos in the commercial break.
I love the style of this game, both in terms of art and writing- the characters are memorable, and the atmosphere is fantastic. Would definitely reccommend.
I can see that Vincent wasn't satisfied with Dr. Krueger's therapy, what a shame huehehehehe. Overall, I really love your game!!! Oh, wait, sorry! I meant gameS!!! I knew this style looked familiar and was amazed seeing that you're also the developer of Morfosi! The first ever game of yours that I played!!! And also the game with Vincent?!?! What?!?! How talented are you?!?! Huehehehe, keep up the good work!!! 10/10 would recommend!!! A part of me expected that Taylor truly needed therapy and was just making Krueger look like the bad guy, but damn! Wasn't disappointed though, the endings are still cool! I hope I get to see a mention of Dr. Krueger in Vincent's game!!! Kinda want to discover their past with each other. Your art and story style are very eye-catching! <3
This game is amazing! The character designs and story are phenomenal, and the endings were so good! The last ending definitely had me tearing up a bit, overall, the game was incredible and I'm so excited to see what else the dev comes up with next!!
The game looks interesting, from the mysterious therapist to the funny dull main heroine I feel like I need to study the game more but some hints help you a lot.
I thoroughly enjoyed this game. I like the slow burn with suttle hints to something sinister. I like games like this that play at nothing being wrong, even tho there clearly is.
I've seen Manly play this, and I have to say, this game is pretty neat. I do have a few criticisms, though.
1. Some segments feel like they have repetitive dialogue, such as the paper minigame. A suggestion would be rather them him saying "Why did you flip the paper?" over and over in a neutral tone, why not have him slowly get more visibly frustrated with every time you flip it over?
2. The commercial/we'll be right back segments were my least favorite part of the game. Something about how they stick out from the retro aesthetic of most of the game combined with how they somehow use Itchy & Scratchy footage with a filter over it threw me off.
Wow, I had a lot of fun playing this game. It was really entertaining. There were a few typos, but nothing too noticeable, and they didn't take away from the excellent experience I had.
Taylor had a lot of personality, which was great. I think it was a really good idea to make them nonbinary, so that anyone could project onto them. In this house we stan Taylor Lee!
Warning, spoilers ahead for all three endings.
I really liked the little commentary Taylor did at the end there! They gave me some helpful advice and I was able to figure out how to get the second ending on my own!
The second ending was a little confusing to me, but I think I understood it. It was really cool seeing all those minor changes in the text as if Taylor had a slight memory of what had happened! And that weird glitchy video was really creepy!
Finally, the third ending. I had to go on the walkthrough to figure it out, but I didn't mind. I absolutely adored the dancing skeletons, they were a great way to break the tension. And then the way that Taylor was able to connect with Dr. Krueger near the end of the session was really cute, and kind of bittersweet. I actually felt kinda bad for him, I know how hard it is to move. And the end part where he messaged his nemesis, it was so cute! (Were you inspired by kismesistude from Homestuck, there? I bet you were.)
Overall, this was a great game, and I plan to look at more of your work, which will surely be just as, if not more, amazing.
I have found it annoyingly hard to get anything but the "bad ending" the fact that you have to listen to the same thing over and over again adn that there is no skipping button makes it even harder. It's cool though, has some real good potential!
Hey there! Rance has actually already reached out to me on Instagram, and I have answered them there. That's why I didn't leave another reply here. Hope this clears up the confusion!
i really enjoyed this game! well aside for when there was spoken dialogue... i have hearing issues that make it difficult to keep up with that sort of thing. i was wondering if you had any plans to add subtitles to the spoken sections? thanks for putting this together! all the games you've worked on have been very unique and i'm always excited to see what's next for you. cheers!
No problem! I will add it after I'm done with the localization update. My apologies; things have been a bit overwhelming for me, so it will prob take me a bit.
Really great stuff! One of my favourite games on itch.io! You've created a rich aesthetic and very compelling narrative. A few minor points however:
Replaying the game is probably its weakest point. This is helped a bit by the smaller randomised events (such as the videos) but still doesn't entirely make up for just playing the same thing again. Maybe switching entire segments of the game randomly during different runs could help amend this.
In order to complete the game and to get to the feel good ending you have to complete a total of 3 of these runs.
The ball mix up game is Horrible when trying to complete perfectly. By the last two rounds, you just have to guess and hope you get it right twice in a row so you don't have to replay it again (a 1/6 chance each time).
Nitpicking aside I loved it! Good luck in your future endeavours!
this game was absolutely incredible and im just sad there wasnt more of it! its fantastic in every way and the universe and concepts behind it are all brilliantly thought out and impressive and i just love this so much. the art style, the music, the concept, the story, the writing, all of it put together are the perfect combination of a brilliant game. i love it so much and i appreciated every aspect of it. i couldnt stop playing.

Hey there! Thanks a lot for your kind offer and I really appreciate it. However, I already had someone reach out to me to translate the game into Portuguese. Thank you though!
Hello, I am a Korean who played the game. As a well-translated game in Korean, I would like to thank the producer for allowing me to enjoy the game.
You're too kind! I'm glad you enjoyed my game. I should be the one thanking Shade for translating the game into Korean, and all of you for giving it a try!
I love the style of this, and it was perfect to sit down and spend an evening playing!

Very cool! Very nice! My friend and I enjoyed playing it and the endings were so good. 10/10. We loved it.

Hello ^^ i am a traslator and i want to translate this game for my website, but i need the permission x.x i gonna to translate to portuguese
You should probably message the creator on their social media, they seem to read comments on instagram so I'm pretty sure they'll answer you there!
Hey there! Rance has actually already reached out to me on Instagram, and I have answered them there. That's why I didn't leave another reply here. Hope this clears up the confusion!
The dancing skeletons were the best part. In all seriousness great game.
I really wanted to film it, but it ended before I could
i really enjoyed this game! well aside for when there was spoken dialogue... i have hearing issues that make it difficult to keep up with that sort of thing. i was wondering if you had any plans to add subtitles to the spoken sections? thanks for putting this together! all the games you've worked on have been very unique and i'm always excited to see what's next for you. cheers!
Hi- Yes of course! Are you referring to the commercial part?
yes, the commercial! thanks for considering it.
No problem! I will add it after I'm done with the localization update. My apologies; things have been a bit overwhelming for me, so it will prob take me a bit.
no worries at all! take all the time you need. i'll be looking forward to when the update comes! thank you again <3
Hey there! Hope you are doing well. The subtitles have been added for v1.1.0!
Played through all endings in order (by accident). Wonderfully done! 5/5 would have another session.
Absolutely loved the game! It was very interesting and fun to play.
This game was absolutely brilliant. I was not able to get all the endings. I seem to be stuck on ending one but, enjoyed it despite.
Really great stuff! One of my favourite games on itch.io! You've created a rich aesthetic and very compelling narrative. A few minor points however:
Nitpicking aside I loved it! Good luck in your future endeavours!
