Small intro:
You are now Ayexore Elyeux, a character who according to the original lore has probably been dead for several centuries, but is completely alive for the sake of making the game! You are a Pre-Cadet, which means protecting the front part of a building where certain people live. It is in your best interest to protect these people to the best of your ability. So try not to forget that. Whatever the circumstances may be...
-----------------------------------------------------
I'm going to be less fancy with my wording here, because I can't be bothered, plus English isn't my native language.
- First off, you HAVE to be 18 to play this game. I'm not fucking around, this game IS NOT appropriate for anyone below the age of 18 and it's also not for people who are faint of heart. Or sensitive to topics such as abuse and any sort of dead dove-ish content type. The warning at the start is so important I included it in the screenshots here, it's the first one, but also read it and respect it. If you're genuinely uncomfortable with anything listed in it, then DON'T. PLAY. THE. GAME.
I refuse to take responsibility for those who know they can't deal with these topics, yet chose to go through it anyway. That sounds like some kind of weird form of masochism, ngl.
- Second, please make sure you pay attention to these little dolls that pop up here and there throughout the game. Everytime one pops-up, there is a good reason for it, so please pay attention to them ad what they're saying, it will improve your viewing experience immensely.
- Thirdly, the game as of now does have a very simple walkthrough, for when you get stuck with the fights or event order. You can FIND IT HERE. As for the endings however, you must still explore and find out it's secretss on your own.
- This game has 10 different endings (9+1 secret ending).
- It's PC only and likely Windows only too, unless you know how to play RPG maker games on Mac. As far as I know though, it's not that easy to do that with Mac but idk.
- INSTALL THE FONT PROVIDED IN THE FILES, even though it's in English, the ingame font still looks whack so do yourself a favor and install it.
- Controls are arrow keys, X to decline, space to confirm, enter for menu.
------------------------------------------------
That's it from me for now, any bug reports/language issues can be freely reported in the comments. I will be moving onto other projects now, so expect updates to be slow and infrequent.

Important instructions before you play the game, READ THE README.txt FILE !!!
Without it you're likely going to have an even shittier game experience. So read it and follow it. The correct file to download first is the one with the game's version in it (example: a small nightly prelude beta 1.0.2 etc.).

Hi - quick comment! I wouldn't mind helping proof the game in the future.
contact - InkingTrouble @ twt
Sure, thanks! What do you mean by proof though?
looking through the game + translating untranslated text, then smoothing dialogue mostly!
alr! thank you. im not planning on working on this game anymore in the future though, so if i were to do this, it would be with a different game likely? or youre free to give me some corrections for this game, its just that the wonky way its made it might take me forever to fix/i might just give up on it. i can dm you on twt later just so you know my handle on there
actually i wanted to dm you, but your dms arent open so i cant message u.
should be fixed now!
I noticed that some of the texts were not translated. What's going on?
yeah that can happen when you don't have a beta tester and the text is originally in a different language. tell me which ones aren't translated nd i'll fix it.
noting down however, the text that happens after the window cutscene (transition from day to night that should say "Later that night..." has already been fixed in the beta 1.0.3 version)
next time you encounter an issue, please specify where the issue occured. especially with text based errors. it is not within the realm of possibility for me to magically know where they are.
also the dialogue where the protagonist refuses to help the person in the bathroom is also problematic.
Thanks, Spike - fixed it, an update should be uploaded soon.
Also you should really stop changing accounts to pretend you're someone else, it's not working. Might as well just own it, since I can't block you on here.
Just curious, are all the characters male or are at least some nonbinary or female, trans or otherwise?
As far as the characters that have talking sprites go, Life is agender/non-binary. Some of the other PreCs are also NB/female.
Do any of the NB characters or girls have cocks?
I haven't thought about any of the ones that only have the overworld sprites, but Life does not, no. They lack any typical reproductive organs.
Can there be a sex scene with that person in the shower in a future update, a foursome with the three idiots, and/or various sex scene options at the Sabbath?
Oh, and can there be the option to take advantage of the red cadet sexually?
I found several game issues.
First, after I learned Whirlwind in the trash can in the Southeast corner of the library, I found that using it during combat would cause the game to quit unexpectedly because the game files could not be found.
Also, when I went to battle for the second time, I found that I couldn't use Blue Fire of Doom at all. What happened?
(i m not a eng naive speaker, so sorry my bad eng)Regarding whirlwind, I checked and it's an extraction issue. If you play the game directly from the .lhz file without using the setup.exe file, the font in the file names won't export properly and the engine won't be able to read it. I'll be fixing the file names so they don't have any non-base latin symbols in them (and therefore rpg maker will always be able to read it), but as far as I know, this is what's causing it.
But in regards to the other attack, in order to be able to use that attack, you must acquire a gun. It's intentionally unusable until you beat the Red Cadette and get his gun. If that still doesn't work for you, then I might need screenshots, since it worked for me without problems when I tested the game and I specifically tested for this.
There will be a patch released later today for the Whirlwind issue though. Thank you for letting me know.
By the way, I want to ask what perfume is used for? I have no idea.
It's an item that unlocks special events if you use it. With that information you are free to explore what it may do. Or just keep playing the game as usual. Also where you found it may help with figuring out what or who would be affected by using it.
perhaps it's a skill issue but the second fight seems kinda impossible. any advice?
depends on which fight youre talking about. if you mean the one against the trio, i would suggest exploring the game a bit to find healing items or items that improve your stats. since idk your stats when you got to the fight or the state of your inventory, i cant tell the issue. so ill need more details to know what the issue might be.
also addendum, i have just now included a simple spoiler free version of the guide on how to best beat the fights. hopefully it can help you regardless of which one you were stuck on.
Where do you get to each sex scene?
Play and explore the game please. All I can say for now is there's two animated scenes and some endings have a sexual still image.
Hey, if I already have this game translated into Brazilian Portuguese, can you help me upload it? if u have time^^
If you mean you have the game files and the translation already in the game, then yes, I can upload it here and I'll edit the credits to mention that you did the translation. However, if you only have the raw text for the tranlastion, then no, I will not be putting it into the game myself, as the game is wonky. It would be time consuming and I really wanna start focusing on the new project.
If you wanna reach out to me on discord regarding the translation, please let me know your handle and I'll add you. I won't be sharing my own due to issues with the recent re-emergence of stalking.
