Each ending was an interesting game. If my legs weren't numb in seiza, I would have wanted to complete all the endings... The grief of losing a child is immeasurable, but will another child fill the grief...?
Currently making a multi part series of this for the endings, love how refreshing this horror experience is for me narratively and visually, Lovely so far!
I loved the style for this game! The silent film look fits very well and adds to the creepy atmosphere of the game. Can't wait to see what else you create!
Double thumbs up to the dev. Hope to see more from ya. If you ever decide to do something that isn't horror Tia Panchita's stories could do for good source material.
This is a nice take on folklore! I love how dying is actually a mechanic of the game! Still I don't know if I got all the endings (I think I got three). Anywho this is a great game! If you're a YouTuber you should definitely try this!
Mind telling me a bit of lore, on this spirit, and the overall vibe...? I've so far have seen nobody look at this with some in depth analysis, id love to hear whatever ya willing to tell me!
Hi!! The tale of this spirit differs on who is telling it/ which area it's told, so there are many tales as it was passed on orally. From the description, the tale takes it on from Costa Rica, which may differ from what I will tell you, as I am Mexican, and am going to tell you what I have heard.
Overall, there was this beautiful women, Maria(that's what some people say is her name), who one day fell in love with a man (usually he was a merchant, ranchero, or conquistador) from outside her town. The two eventually married( or not in some tales) and had two children (number of children vary in some places, but there's at least 1 kid). Here's the part where the story changes depending who's saying it:
-One version goes that over time, the man started to fall out of love with Maria, and only starts to dote on their children, but ignores Maria completely
-Another says that the man starts to lose interest in Maria and his family overall and pretty much cheats on her, with some saying that he at one point completely abandons the family to go marry a richer women
Either way, Maria is overcome with a blind fit of rage and ends up drawing her child(ren) because of it, yet, she immediately regrets it and tries to save them, which she fails to do so. Because of this, she ends up drowning herself out of guilt, but because of her actions, she can't enter the afterlife and is forced to roam the earth until she finds her children. Because of this, she usually takes any children she comes across, which is near any body of water.
It's interesting that the game puts in the tales that have been told onto here, like for example, in one of the endings (MINOR SPOILER)
when la llorona jumps into the river, it's just like how the tale goes, as well as residing near bodies of water, although this take of la llorona is very interesting, as usually, people depict her in white clothing, so seeing her in all black was interesting! I have never heard of the Costa Rican tale either, and many people associate la llorona with Mexican roots, which isn't a lie, but I like how it's more diverse with the settings instead!
I dunno how the mexicans retell the story, but this is the version told in Costa Rica:
As most of the older legends, it's set in the early towns where spaniards, amerindians and mestizos lived in defined areas. Legend goes that a creole (white born in the new world) fancied a tawny (common slang for amerindians and more-tanned mestizos) girl.
He fooled around with her but once she got pregnant he ghosted her (heh). Having kids out of wedlock was still a big deal, so the girl concealed her pregnancy. The rainy night she felt herself ready to give birth, she went out into the forest and had her child (gender varies). She threw it into the river and went back home. Eventually, the guilt got to her, and a few nights later she went downstream looking for her baby. She didn't come back home, so she was assumed to have been taken by the currents.
As a punishment for murdering her child, the girl's ghost is bound to the river, cursed to search for a baby she'll never find.
I managed to get all endings except for the second ending.. I know its called "the good child" but I'm unable to get it. I really enjoyed this game tho and thought it had crazy good atmosphere!
Hi! Just recorded this game for my channel and I gotta say, easily one of my favorite games that I've played in a long while. Absolutely terrifying, made me jump more than once, but still with a great mythological story to tie it together. I love the branching paths also, although I have to admit that one of the endings has eluded me. I got the runaway ending, the ending where you reject her after midnight, and the ending where you accept her after midnight. I also found a strange scenario where if I let her chase me and then activated midnight, she would disappear, and when I encountered her later she wouldn't give the accept/reject dialogue but simply stare at me until I got the first ending again. However, after getting that scenario, she simply disappeared from the game and wouldn't show up unless I started from the beginning. It was very creepy, but I think I'm missing the last ending and have no idea how to get it. Are there any tips or hints you could give me as to what I'm missing that could unlock that last ending, so I can add it to my video? Sorry for this long comment, but this amazing game is absolutely worth getting everything I can out of it. Either way, thanks bud! :]
fr just made an account JUST so i could comment on ur game ,, man it's every once in a while i encounter a game SO good and SO hard hitting. the story being inspired by la llorona rlly hits close to home as a venezuelan girl and the visuals?? the FUCKING AMBIENCE?? god this game was such an experience. i've been replaying it all ovr and ovr again ever since i played it for the first time. bro ur a genius developer lemme tell you. i'll look forward to what u put out in the future. have a gr8 day <3

I had a lot of fun trying to find all the endings!

Each ending was an interesting game.
Language:JapaneseIf my legs weren't numb in seiza, I would have wanted to complete all the endings...
The grief of losing a child is immeasurable, but will another child fill the grief...?
