This is a game about clearing out your mother's home after she has passed. You have three days before the creditors claim it and you must decide to take what means the most.
The game is played over the course of 3 days, each with a Morning, Evening and Night. During those days you have different actions you can preform during each segment, and depending on what your current stats are, you may be forced to do one over the other.
The three stats are Boxing, representing how much of the house you have packed. Pain, representing your emotional state, and Exhaustion, representing your physical body. Each day your action will determine how much of these stats are filled out. For example, if pain goes over the threshold you must spend your action comforting yourself.
Each day also has you answer various questions about your relationship between your family, the state of the house, and your emotional state towards your mother's death. You can read my playthrough HERE
What does "outcomes engine" mean?
Hello, I am interested in seeing your "No one Lives here anymore" game. I am a funeral director and I feel that this could be a therapeutic avenue to direct certain clients to. As someone who has experienced both deep personal loss and deals with the loss of others every day, I could benefit from this resource. The description of the game mentions that I can message you directly for a free copy. May I ask how to message you please? Itch doesn't seem to have a way to do so. Thank you so much!
Message her on twitch like I did, I'm not sure she comes on itch frequent as in daily. Her name is " Goat Song Publishing " here but on Twitter she is " Mids Meinberg, the Void and the Flame "
This was my first experience with a solo rpg. I did horribly. :(
Please explain? Solo RPG? as in like an offline console game Roleplaying but just you and NPC's only and like no other human players? If so my Steam Library is basically 60% of those that I would play by myself solo, the good news is because it's solo usually means, what you do is safe from other players wrecking your work/progress etc.
They mean a solo ttrpg, which is a tabletop roleplaying game that you play alone.
