dark urban fantasy - friendship - relationships

Emma just wanted to sacrifice a goat and hang out with Artur. Instead, she's chasing an influencer and reconsidering her life choices.

This is the third of three parts. Please read the first two installments of the series first!

Content Warnings: Blood, graphic violence, death, mind control.

Summary: Following the events of Patchwork Ego where Emma made a pact with an eldritch creature, she wakes up in an unfamiliar bed. While she's been honing her new powers as a warlock with Artur's help, she's not prepared for the eldritch madness that ensues when her entire world is turned upside down and nothing is as she remembers it to be.
And then there's Stanley, whom she's never heard of, but who somehow dominates the entire media landscape.

Q & A

Can I read this before reading Perfection | Paper-Thin and Patchwork Ego?

Probably not. You can try, but it might not make a lot of sense.

What's the difference between the jam version and the full version?

The jam version is the state the game was in at the end of the jam. This mainly means it doesn't have a background for Artur's office because we didn't want our artists to have to redo an asset we already had from the prequel and backgrounds are tedious work.

Furthermore, we update our games with new features for a while after a jam, so the full version might gain additional animation, upgraded character sprites, or more expressions.

Unless you're curious to see what we achieved within the month of March, we suggest you download the full version! 

Where's Wyatt?

Sadly, we couldn't reach his voice actor for this jam, so we hope he's just busy with a lot of awesome projects right now! We even had a plan for a third, Wyatt-centered, timeline. Its story concept would have been: "Rose fuses with everyone and that is an issue."

In hindsight, this would have completely derailed the scope.

Why does [Emma, Agatha, Francis] have a new voice actor?

This being a game jam, not everyone is always available, so we shuffled around the voice actors for Emma and Agatha. There's no way we could have made this visual novel without Emma,  after all.

As far as Francis is concerned, this is actually the original Francis voice actor who sadly got sick last time around. We're happy to finally present to you Francis' original voice and hope you enjoy!
