we're all here for different reasons
hello, little birds. I've missed you so much
i'm really not sure what to say here. nothing seems adequate. things have stayed rough-- depression, anxiety, hormone adjustments, being made to go off meds, going back ON meds, all sorts of stuff. some days I'm so tired I can barely think straight. but all that said, I do think I'm finally starting to get back to some kind of balance. gears are turning, there are ideas urging me to make them real. I don't want to go counting any chicks, but I was stable enough for the past few weeks to get this thing here made, so that's something right?
I'm sincerely sorry for being so incommunicado these past few months. the truth is, I reached a point where the thought of posting yet another update to the effect of "I said there'd be something but there isn't, I'm sorry, please keep waiting" just kind of made me want to curl up, so I waited until I had something to show. I'm going to do better about not leaving you all hanging going forward. and yet, despite my silence... wow. here you all are. if anything there are MORE of you! I always say it, but it's always true: I'll never be able to adequately express my gratitude. The fact that I have an audience of such amazingly kind, supportive, loving, understanding people is like... it's a dream come true. It really is. I'm humbled, and I'm grateful, and I love you. Special thanks to those of you who reached out to check in on me and offer words of encouragement and assurance. I really believe I'm the luckiest artist alive. I'm going to keep saying it.
so then, this thing here... I don't want to spend to much time introducing it. I'm happy with it, and I think it's a pretty quintessential PHANTOM_HOUSE experience, sharing genes with Scarlet Bough and Dust-Of-Her-Mouth and Seven Days. for a change, I allowed myself plenty of time to add in all kinds of little details and fun things to find (I'm already whole months late so fuck it, right?), and the result is one that I'm very pleased to present to you all. ALL of you. it's been a while, hasn't it, dearhearts? as usual, please check the readme for controls and content warnings.
I may still be shaky for a few months while I get the gears turning again. I might not be able to cling so tightly to the 'game a month' pace I've set, as I need to set aside time to be working on some public releases, as well as just continuing to recover physically and mentally. but I'm not done, little birds. I have so much still to make, and my heart still howls, even if sometimes it's too quiet to hear.
thank you all so, so much. you're the actual best and I love you. talk to you soon~
EDIT: Forgot to put in the readme, but the scrolling text speed can be controlled with the - and = keys!

Feels good to revisit this haunted world after all this time. You've been gone awhile at time of posting this, but your work has an enduring quality to it, so that's ok. I hope you're feeling good wherever you are. I hope you're safe. I still think this is one of your best works and will probably continue to revisit it into the future, hoping you release a soundtrack one day. No one else makes what you make. Miss u <3<3<3~

ah frick, I thought I had a debug key bound for that but I guess I took it out. sorry!! so unfortunately if your game's developer is a dingus and doesn't include a deletion method, you have to mess around in the registry to delete the game's playerpefs file. fortunately though, Tenement in particular resets itself completely from one day to the next-- give it another shot, it should be good now! if it isn't let me know and I'll upload a fixed build!

hey, its really great to see you back! i was hoping though you or someone could help me out. i was real excited to play this one and i loaded it up and played it for a bit before i discovered what f5 does. long story short i spammed it too much and i cant figure out how to delete save data so i can properly play the game. i even deleted and reinstalled the game to no avail :(
