Well thank you for playing it! It was a blast watching you play our CS and to be honest, that is the whole reason we made it! Watching people play our story just makes our day.

I said this in my stream and I'll say this again, this was by far the best custom story I've played. You guys nailed the style of the original game and that's genuinely what I loved the most about it. There is so much more I could say about this custom story on how it's great but you guys probably know already based on how much I was invested on it. Either way you shouldn't stop with this custom story, I know for a fact every single one you guys'll have in mind will be better than the last. Thank you for making this.

We are loving the streams man! Really, really entertaining.

I'm not even gonna lie I got extremely surprised after I realized that one of you (or both) were watching my stream (and I feel stupid for not realizing sooner). Either way alongside that silly chandelier bug and the monster in the library being sorta broken that was genuinely a fun chapter! Looking forward to finishing this custom story off tomorrow!

Great Man! We appreciate it! There are 3 Chapters in total, around 3 to 4 hours of gameplay :)

Managed to do a lil stream for today and did chapter 1! So far I like it and flinched twice which makes me happy because I love it when something can actually scare me, so I think it's safe for me to say you guys nailed it there! I'm just curious, how many chapters are there in total?

Gotta push it to this weekend since I'll have a busy week unless I'll find some time in the midst of it!
JesusYourFriend  [author] 20 Sep @ 3:43pm 
We're hyped!
rusrus 20 Sep @ 2:18pm 
It would right be in my user! (cylindrusic on youtube) I don't really care too much about my viewer count I just stream for fun and whenever I feel like it (plus after some therapy it's been nice to want to do things more so that happens more often)
JesusYourFriend  [author] 20 Sep @ 2:03pm 
Oh nice man! What's your page name? We are definitely checking it out !
JesusYourFriend  [author] 20 Sep @ 2:00pm 
Thank you all for the kind words! Pablo & me appreciate it!
rusrus 20 Sep @ 1:27pm 
Okay scratch that I found out how to make it pop up! Will stream it starting next week so keep your eyes out >:D
rusrus 20 Sep @ 1:17pm 
I might be stupid but I don't see the custom story in the Custom Story tab even when subscribing, do I just manually download from ModDB?
Domenikus 20 Sep @ 1:10pm 
It's not a big deal, but you can get stuck under the 2nd flight of stairs in the library leading to the black and white tile floor.
Domenikus 19 Sep @ 6:40pm 
really good! I love all the items hidden around, makes you want to look everywhere

JesusYourFriend  [author] 17 Sep @ 11:33am

This is such a breath of fresh air! I enjoyed it thoroughly, and so must have the devs. I can tell this was made passionately
JesusYourFriend  [author] 15 Sep @ 11:44pm 
And yeah, we didn’t pull any punches 😎
JesusYourFriend  [author] 15 Sep @ 11:41pm 
I just watched some of your stream - it looks really professional, and you’re super entertaining! I’ll definitely be watching every single minute of it. Can’t wait for episode 2!
VendettaDylan 15 Sep @ 1:34pm 
Gonna be honest I'm really enjoying this custom story so far!! :D Definetly 10/10 on my books can't wait to carry it on!!! :D :steamthumbsup:
JesusYourFriend  [author] 15 Sep @ 9:35am 
Thank you! Pablo and I really appreciate the compliment, and we’re definitely excited to check out your stream!

Amalie was definitely real! She just practiced a bit too much witchcraft :D trying to make Edward fall in love with her, which didn’t really work out. Her presence adds flavor and a bit of magical intrigue, but she’s not central to the main plot.

The portal is super important. That’s where you find the “Vessels Bloom”—these flowers are tied to Abaddon. On the surface, they seem like gifts of respect, but really they act as a seal, keeping Abaddon’s rage and destruction contained in that dimension. Given by otherworldly entities to Abaddon. If the portal opens into our world, he and his soldiers could cause chaos and death. (Creatures found in the sewer) The only way to stop it for good is to close the portal AND complete the ritual sacrifice, which completely banishes Abaddon and his lesser legions.

So yeah, Amalie was real, and the portal is all about containing Abaddon and reversing this disaster.

Checked MODDB and this one actually looks promising :) Cant wait to stream it! :D

This custom story is close to being in my top 10. It feels like DLC for the base game, both positively and negatively. If it had more physics based puzzles, it would have felt too much like the base game.

I enjoyed the story but got confused towards the end. Like was Amalie real, or just part of a fairy tale? The note was hard to read, and if she was real, what happened to her? Also, what happened in the portal? That part was unclear. I'd love the story explained to me in case i missed something.

The gameplay was solid overall. Most puzzles were easy, except for a few. The monsters were never hard to avoid, except in the sewers, where they were annoying. The room design was well done, and the atmosphere was great.

Overall, I give it a 7.5/10. Excited to play the second mod when it's available! :steamthumbsup:

Tutorial/Walkthrough Live on Moddb
JesusYourFriend  [author] 14 Sep @ 1:23pm 
Thank you very much! We appreciate the reviews very much, we love that people actually share their opinions with us! I'm working on a tutorial right now but I'm a bit late I see hahaha.... We are planning on creating a new Custom Story which we are planning out more carefully now. More on Moddb.

7/10.
Very good job for a first mod, yet the vanilla feel is what lets it down. Grunts, suitors and brutes feel really stale. However, the parts with more custom assets compensated for it - Amadeus part was the highlight of the mod for me, and you should definetely focus to make something in a similar fashion. Was not particularly scary to me, a frictional games veteran, and machinery puzzle honestly nearly made me ragequit - it could do with a touch of less cryptic hints.

Overall, amazing for a first mod, keep up the good work ^^.

Its strange..usually the mod appears in the CS list in game
JesusYourFriend  [author] 12 Sep @ 4:39am 
Weird! You could always download another version on Moddb, that may help.
Volcanis 12 Sep @ 4:23am 
I did sub but ,its not under the castle, or letter C alphabetically is what im saying
JesusYourFriend  [author] 12 Sep @ 4:22am 
If you subscribed to the mod, it should just show up in-game, like all the other custom stories. I don’t know why it isn’t working for you but i’ll take a look at it.
Volcanis 12 Sep @ 4:18am 
So...it won't show up in the list as normal custom stories do?
JesusYourFriend  [author] 12 Sep @ 3:51am 
Thank you! We’re happy you liked it!
JesusYourFriend  [author] 12 Sep @ 3:51am 
There are kind of “2” endings. One where you fail your mission and die by Abaddon, and one where you successfully complete the ritual.
Xot 12 Sep @ 3:09am 
anyway i really interesting story thanks i enjoyed it
Xot 12 Sep @ 3:09am 
But the ending is strange. I don't know if there is another ending.
Volcanis 12 Sep @ 3:06am 
I use the list of custom stories in the game itself
JesusYourFriend  [author] 12 Sep @ 2:44am 
You mean your custom story folder? Steam workshop maps go to another folder. You’d have to search the amnesia id for that. I hope that solves the problem? Otherwise let me know.
Volcanis 11 Sep @ 9:44pm 
Not showing up in castle,or the letter G in my custom story list
