I'm aiming for more of a vertical slice/proof-of-concept that contains most of the final systems to see if the game works or not. If it all works out, I'll be in a position where I can dedicate a good chunk of my time to just making content, which I'm looking forward to.
Can we at least get some reverse sexy time in that vertical slice? :BootyTime:

Will we be able to bang the merchant lady in this vertical slice?

Love the game just wished there was more content. You have great potential. Good luck with your next game development

Really good, wish I could make it darker and the rooms were more interconnected instead of long dead ends.

Can we get a clue as to what the statues might do? I tried looking around for any and everything but nothing seems to be it...

For context, there's a chance to have the text on the loading screen saying "Watch the statues", and in the free mode room there's a weird medallion with 4 tiny statues around it, must mean something, even the developer kinda teased me about it last time I mentioned this (reacted with the thinking emoji), could be nothing but I wonder if there's a mystery to solve here, anyone got any ideas..?

I'll definitely give it a try. The main thing I need to do is get the gameplay loop enjoyable enough to thrive in a procedurally generated environment. As the game is more dungeon crawler-y though, I think/hope it'll be fine.

Hey mate, you made one hell of a game so congratulations you deserve all the recognition you can get!

I thought about this too. The only thing that I know is that one of the statues remember me of Doctor who. Maybe there is a patern in the position that they are facing like always point out to the medalion positions, but once I got a little more experience in avoid the window and map reading I kind of forgot about them.:BootyTime:

. That episode really creeped me out. Speaking of which...
Krasue do you think there's a chance for a weeping angel-type of enemy in your next game? Has potential for a pretty enemy.

I've definitely thought about it and it would be great for enemy variety. Not sure about using statues, though.

As for the Statues in HotPW, they don't really do anything. I initially made them as a way to identify where you are but due to generation shenanigans, they mostly end up in the same area of the map. If I update the game again, I might try and address this.

Also, I do check this thread every now and then and I'm very thankful for all the kind words people have left here. I'm glad people still play Halls of the Pale Widow, even with its flaws.

Imma be plain, I don't even care whether there's mechanics to them, statue titties have me going unwise so I'm gonna advocate for any excuse to include those

Your game is awesome and I'm impressed it only took you 3 weeks to make.
I checked out your patreon and the next game looks very promising! I love the witch character

you can use cheat engine which I did after I beat it enough to have the runs down enough to win around 75% of the time depending on rng and whether I get completely lost or not.

Ah, the dilemma of being too scared to play horror games yet being interested in one:HideThePain:
I've always avoided horror games mainly because I'm not good at handling the tension and stress but since playing this I've been wanting to try more action oriented horror games like resident evil and work my way down from more action stuff to straight horror. Still haven't started but this game is great.

I feel like I need to write this post or I am just going to explode. First, love the game and respect the creator's drive and passion to just move on to a new project to keep showing off what he can do. But I also think that this game is a fucking goldmine that he could expand upon and get that sweet dough, no joke.

Man, i'm gonna be real honest here, you could've made this game 100% SFW and it would still be a gem. In fact, i've been enjoying this game purely for the hide-and-seek + chases kind of gameplay, i've yet to touch a NSFW scene so far. Horror games were you are being hunted by someone or something are my absolute favorite, and i think you nailed the formula perfectly with this one, even if it's a very simple game on the surface.

I'd strongly suggest you to put your game on Steam, i wouldn't mind buying this one. Your next game is also looking fire!!!

PS: Forgot to mention this game also made me jump a couple of times as well. Never thought a porn game would give me scares, but here we are lol
