keyboard buttons is there by default. they are a little bit confusing but they are there: - Arrow buttons to walk - Ctrl = action - Space = Aim - Shift = reload/sprint - Enter = inventory menu - Esc = pause menu - backspace = return/cancel
These buttons are already set up. just start the game and play with these
Awesome! It's really like classic Resident Evil! Thanks for making this game!
Can you make another whiter skin and make her face look like in Alice Madness Returns? (video below is not mine)
Also can you make the enemy grab you when you get attacked? Like the zombies in RE do? Strangle, bear hug, latch (like G-embryo does), etc...
Grab attacks can give the player this "get off me" feeling, making them automatically tap buttons...
Can you put hands on window that will grab the character like in RE games? and in RE2 those zombie hands that come out of barricades and hold the character?
And... there's nothing under her skirt :/ Can you put something? ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
The game definitely has potential. There are some issues - controls and voice acting, mainly - but it is effective as a horror experience. If those issues can be ironed out, and the content expanded, it could be a great throwback to old PS1 survival horror games.
I completed the demo too... I found a bug: in puzzle room, when you get the Left Hand Key and you press too fast (I think)... you can get stuck on screen like this:
By the way, nice game... That boi that trades for toothwheels has nice animations, and when he said "firepower", nice...
When Alisa responded with "The Doll House?" "No really?" is funny!
really cool game, haven't finished it yet but I spotted a minor grammatical error, in a bedroom one of paintings is described as "a painting of a children a dog", shouldn't it be "a painting of a child and a dog"?
:P I completed the Easter Edition :D (and i'm also the first and only one who did it) - Here's my video and a screenshot. P.S you and Arisa are awesome, stay safe.
My fav egg's design is the 11th one (the green one at the bottom, which is also the same design of the 6th egg), my fav 3D models are Alisa (Underwear) ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) and Alisa (Military Uniform)
for now Wine works very well with Windows version of Alisa on Mac. maybe when the game is fully released I could look back at MacOS. But I need to use different shaders because they are not compatible with native Mac.
Saw this on the Nightdive indie game stream. Was instantly enamored by what I saw cause I love the old school survival horror vibes that this game gives off. The demo was quite fun and just long enough to be a tease for those of us wanting more. Will definitely be keeping an eye on its development, and can't wait to purchase the completed project.
Great demo love everything from the concept to the gameplay the awesome music creepy enemies I even the voice acting. This is better than most of the recent so called retro games and its only a demo. Just goes to show what a couple of people with amazing skills and talent can achieve.
i was watching a youtuber play some games he found on itch.io, and within the first few seconds of seeing the beginning of this one, i had to stop watching, because i wanted to play it for myself before watching anything else. i really like it, it reminds me a bit of resident evil. i cant wait to see what this game has in store for the future, (especially after that cliffhanger at the end of the demo), and i wish you well on your future endeavors!
it's set up with keyboard by default. Check the keybinding settings to see how the buttons are mapped for keyboard and if you want to change something to make it easier for you, you can do that too. : )
You have completely nailed the PS1 horror aesthetic far beyond just having charactesr be slightly polygonal. The tone, the environents, everything fits. And the odd combination of Alice in Wonderland imagery and dollhouse aesthetics works wonders. Definitely curious to see where this goes.
I do feel like, for a demo, it throws you into the shit a little too fast, as if you go downstairs without buying bullets, you're more or less instantly screwed with five enemies running around close by, and it seems there could have been a few more choice moments to add a scare (though one doll sneaking around downstairs after you go UPstairs was a great touch) - but these are peanuts
I absolutely adored this! Its style is very Resident Evil-like, which really brought me back to when these visuals were state-of-the-art. And yet, finally, a horror game not about zombies! The music captures the mood perfectly, and I look forward to checking out the upgrades system. Can’t wait for the full release!
Hi i really loved this demo it brought me right back to 1996 playing the first 3d game i ever played i was 5 and it starts by locking you in the attic. same graffics and cluncky gameplay. unlike other comments i found the aiming to be to my liking as it was hard like the old games. were the concept is not to kill everything but conserve your ammo and only do what you what you have to. the dolls were creepy and story evolving as i play the game and make progress. i really wanna support this game so we can see a full game. wouldn't mind a hd grafics tho but that just me wining a little.
it took a while to get the controlls to work. i couln't use my steam controller and that was a issue for me. but i got the keybord to work just fine. my only advice it to make the controll settings more readable so we can set it up easier. other wise i love everything about this. video to follow
I had to play through wine as the mac version wan't working correctly (Which i see you now have removed), but this was fantastic, i loved the atmosphere and the visuals. Just 2 things, I don't love the enemy placement in the first floor, there are way to many enemies, and I wish you could implement an auto aim system for the combat as right now it feels a bit luck based when you'll line your shots correctly and when not, particularly because the turn speed is kinda' slow. Still great little demo, can't wait for an eventual full release (I imagine you are still pretty far from that) and a working mac port.
I will indeed make changes to the combat for the full version. A mac port might not come for this demo anymore. It worked better with Wine. So that's where I leave it for now.
If I download the current version, does the file get updated every time you add an update? Or is it that I have to redownload the game for every update there is? Also, any idea when the full game will be out?
you have to redownload the newer version. But I won't be updating the demo so frequently anymore. Maybe only 1 update to go, for 2 small bugs. But for now, v1.23 is the last. I'm aiming to finish the full game 1 year from now. So first quarter of 2021. I'm planning to run a kickstarter soon and it all depends on the success of this. If I don't make it, the release might take longer because I won't have the resources to work on it fulltime.
Like others, I made this account just for comment here. I loved this demo! I can't wait to play the fullgame, I never played a game like this before and it is incredible. Congratulations from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil!
I think this game is combination from Resident evil 1, and clock tower. Awesome!! for user who have problem with controller, here I share my controller setting that may suit for you too.
Took me a few moments to configure controller input but once I got that I actually enjoyed the game, well done, it has a lot to offer, I'd assume it's inspired by old RE games. Controlls well, beautiful visuals, a lot fo thought went into presentation, like cutscenes, even the intro animation before you get to the menu.
I found a bug that if you aim right after going through a door you can't use the action button (open doors or go through the stairs) and enter in any menu (the inventary or settings) but you can still walk and shoot.
The only way I found to fix it was to try go through the stairs, and then I was able to open the menu again, but if you go to a room without stairs you'll have to re-open the game because you can't open doors.
(I had to re-play it 2 times but was able to find the cause of the bug)
There is a bug too that you can't configure the walking buttons (I wanted to use wasd to walk)
Also I've noticed that it doesn't play on MacOS Catalina, however, whenever I play on MacOS Mojave, the textures for the characters don't load. They're just pure white/gray.
Mac version doesn't really work. I should remove it. The only way to play it correctly on Mac is by downloading the Windows version and playing it through Wine Emulator on Mac. This seems to work correctly.
Man this game looks really awesome! Too bad it seems I can't play it though because when I start it the game shows in my task manager like the game is on and booted but nothing happens. I'm guessing it's an OS version issue. I'm on windows 10
Version 10.0.18362 Build 18362. The pics give me a Clock Tower 2 vibe with the dolls and what not hehe. You guys nailed the 32 bit asthetic :D
Thanks for the reply Casper :D I actually did get it to work. It was on my pc's end as I suspected since I seen no one else with the same issue. I simply uninstalled the last Win 10 update that my pc automatically did, restarted and it works! Unity games always seemed a bit funky for me but they do work :) I know to expect bugs on this demo since there are mentions in the posts but it's fine as this is indie developed and I'm sure they'll be ironed out with time :) You guys absolutely nailed the ps1 asthetic on all fronts with this project though from the character models, pre-rendered backgrounds, music, voice acting. I like how you also took from Fear Effect to let player know when their aim is aligned with enemies since you opted to omit auto aim too! In-game reloading is always a plus as well!
I'm glad it works and that you liked it! ^^ And I'm trying to fix as many bugs as possible with every update. So check the update log on this page from time to time if you want to play without bugs or problems. : )

Any possibility of adding keyboard/mouse controls? I would love to play but don't have a controller for my computer.
Keyboard works. Try to close then re-open the game.
keyboard buttons is there by default. they are a little bit confusing but they are there:
- Arrow buttons to walk
- Ctrl = action
- Space = Aim
- Shift = reload/sprint
- Enter = inventory menu
- Esc = pause menu
- backspace = return/cancel
These buttons are already set up. just start the game and play with these
Thanks mate, looked like it bugged out the first time I opened it, after reopening, the keys are now working. Will post back once I complete the demo!
no problem : ) it happens. Glad I could help and have fun!
Awesome! It's really like classic Resident Evil! Thanks for making this game!

When Alisa responded with "The Doll House?" "No really?" is funny!
This game could have a great potential once completed, so keep on going
really cool game, haven't finished it yet but I spotted a minor grammatical error, in a bedroom one of paintings is described as "a painting of a children a dog", shouldn't it be "a painting of a child and a dog"?
oops XD thanks for noticing! it actually had to be "a painting of children and a dog" no idea why I wrote that "a".
Just checked my game. it does say "A painting of children and a dog."
Are you sure you read a mistake there?
You're right just misread it, my bad
:P I completed the Easter Edition :D (and i'm also the first and only one who did it) - Here's my video and a screenshot. P.S you and Arisa are awesome, stay safe.
You are fast! well done! what's your favourite one? XD and thanks!
My fav egg's design is the 11th one (the green one at the bottom, which is also the same design of the 6th egg), my fav 3D models are Alisa (Underwear) ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) and Alisa (Military Uniform)
seen it on the indie game showcase twitch stream thing had to try it and well
Damn fine game hope it gets a full release i'm buying this one for sure
The giant spook man ended up killing me cause i ran out of bullets
but
that's the joy of survival horror right?!
haha thanks! : )
And yea, not spooky if nothing kills you! XD
Keep an eye out on this game, I'm soon to announce some news for Alisa! : )
Will MacOS version ever be released? Please don't give up on MacOS community <3
for now Wine works very well with Windows version of Alisa on Mac. maybe when the game is fully released I could look back at MacOS. But I need to use different shaders because they are not compatible with native Mac.
Will we have the option to play with modern controls or are we stuck with tank controls?
I will test modern controls along the way of development but might not get into the demo.
Steam release when?
As soon as I can : )
Your game looks great! Love what I've seen already. Keep up the good work!

AWESOME demo!!! great work, cant wait 4 complete game, !! i loved it !!!
Great demo love everything from the concept to the gameplay the awesome music creepy enemies I even the voice acting. This is better than most of the recent so called retro games and its only a demo. Just goes to show what a couple of people with amazing skills and talent can achieve.
or just one guy can achieve XD haha
And thank you!
How true many thanks for your hard work no need to change anything in my view the story puzzles voice acting it all works
Wow, this is awesome. I really had fun with this and it manages to be frightening too. Can't wait for the full version.
I loveee the idea of this game! True nostalgia vibes! I would donate more money if I could!
Thanks a lot! ^^
You're more than welcome! I'm super excited to see how this project grows! ^.^
Here's my video about the Valentine Edition :D

Survival horror для русских пацанов!!!!

Ah, can this game not be played with a keyboard and mouse? I was trying to, but I couldn't seem to do anything with just those.
it's set up with keyboard by default.
Check the keybinding settings to see how the buttons are mapped for keyboard and if you want to change something to make it easier for you, you can do that too. : )
Alright, thank you! I was using my mouse to try to start the game.
I can't wait to play! It looks interesting!
oh yea, the mouse doesn't do anything. It's only keyboard or a custom controller : )
Well, this was an absolute delight to play.
You have completely nailed the PS1 horror aesthetic far beyond just having charactesr be slightly polygonal. The tone, the environents, everything fits. And the odd combination of Alice in Wonderland imagery and dollhouse aesthetics works wonders. Definitely curious to see where this goes.

Definitely wanna see more!
That was a very entertaining experience, look forward to the full game.

If it cost any cesh i will pay many cesh
Is the best gaym ever
Hi i really loved this demo it brought me right back to 1996 playing the first 3d game i ever played i was 5 and it starts by locking you in the attic. same graffics and cluncky gameplay. unlike other comments i found the aiming to be to my liking as it was hard like the old games. were the concept is not to kill everything but conserve your ammo and only do what you what you have to. the dolls were creepy and story evolving as i play the game and make progress. i really wanna support this game so we can see a full game. wouldn't mind a hd grafics tho but that just me wining a little.

you have to redownload the newer version. But I won't be updating the demo so frequently anymore.
Maybe only 1 update to go, for 2 small bugs.
But for now, v1.23 is the last.
I'm aiming to finish the full game 1 year from now. So first quarter of 2021. I'm planning to run a kickstarter soon and it all depends on the success of this. If I don't make it, the release might take longer because I won't have the resources to work on it fulltime.

Loads of Alone in the Dark vibes here!
Wonder where RE got its influence from... 🤔
"During production, Mikami discovered Alone in the Dark (1992), which influenced him to adopt a cinematic fixed-view camera system."
So I guess Alisa is a Alone in the Dark inspired game! : p
I played Alone in the Dark before playing RE games though.
Lol! Good man. Maybe I (we're) a bit older than a lot of these RE players! :)
I think this game is combination from Resident evil 1, and clock tower.
Awesome!! for user who have problem with controller, here I share my controller setting that may suit for you too.

Well done so far, looking forward to see more!
This was awesome. I hope the full release isn't far because I WANT IT! I recorded a video of it for youtube.
Maaaan you made me relive the 90s!!! What a dope game!!! Great job on this one!!!
does it work with an Xbox controller
yes
Hello.
I found a bug that if you aim right after going through a door you can't use the action button (open doors or go through the stairs) and enter in any menu (the inventary or settings) but you can still walk and shoot.
The only way I found to fix it was to try go through the stairs, and then I was able to open the menu again, but if you go to a room without stairs you'll have to re-open the game because you can't open doors.
(I had to re-play it 2 times but was able to find the cause of the bug)
There is a bug too that you can't configure the walking buttons (I wanted to use wasd to walk)
Really liked the game, keep it up.
Thanks for the bug report! I will fix this as soon as I can! : )
What are the MacOS requirements?
Also I've noticed that it doesn't play on MacOS Catalina, however, whenever I play on MacOS Mojave, the textures for the characters don't load. They're just pure white/gray.
Could anyone please assist me with this? Thanks!
Mac version doesn't really work. I should remove it.
