Apartments is an RPG Maker VX Ace project I originally started fiddling with back in 2018.
I did not get very far into it's development, however it is a project I've been longing to get back to! So, here is a page about the project in the hopes it'll inspire me ^^;;
Apartments is a surreal exploration game heavily inspired by Yume Nikki. My aim was to have little to no dialouge, and have the player figure things out by general exploration.
The game followed the protagonist, Sasaki, as she's moved into her new apartment. As she explores the rest of the apartment buildings, she finds sparling and interconnected landscapes, with unique characters who live within the apartment complex.
However, not every inhabitant is friendly, and Sasaki will find herself confronted by monsters known as Dysphoria's, that she needs to avoid or find a way to defeat.
Here's a little blurb about some of the characters I've settled on so far.
Sasaki
The games protagonist. She's just moved into her own apartment for the first time, and clearly has some self-exploration to do.
Baph
A strange goat creature who lives in the apartment directly opposite Sasaki. They run a small shop that Sasaki can buy items from.
Grimm
A strange Grim Reaper type creature who lives in one of the neighbouring apartments. He seems to enjoy tea.
Anubis
Another inhabitant of the apartments, not much is known about him currently.
