STORY AND CHARACTERS:You are playing as an ordinary horror monster called “Beautiful Prisoner”.
IAF _Beautiful Prisoner
Beautiful Prisoner is an IAF (Interactive Art Form) – a robot designed for artistic purposes. Each time his charging mode is activated he’s entering the ruined paper world of Origami.
Origami Man
Origami Man is living alone on Saturn. He is the king of the ruined paper world he is building to escape loneliness.
Captain Navigator
Captain Navigator is an 8 bit hero of an unreleased Saga Blaster System game called “Saturn Quest”. The prototype of the game when run on emulator installed on discharged IAF _B. P. forms a portal leading to the ruined paper world of Origami.
Vertical Ace[_???_]
Mysterious voice coming from inside of the ruined paper world of Origami. He is the creator of IAF _Beautiful Prisoner and a love interest of the dark muse Barbara. Claims to be a God.
Dark Muse Barbara
The antagonist of Romantic Horror Nights. She was created from the dark affinity of Vertical Ace. She’s confronting Beautiful Prisoner believing she can use him as a vessel to reach the world of Vertical Ace.
Light Muse Angela
The opposite of Dark Muse Barbara she was created from the light affinity of Vertical Ace. At least in theory she must exist somewhere in the ruined paper world of Origami. Vertical Ace believes he can save his IAF, guiding him to Angela.
To close the portal for good Captain Navigator must reach the true ending of “Saturn Quest”. This however will create a massive black hole, that may destroy an asteroid or two.
WORK IN PROGRESS (1 month):
Drawing backgrounds usually takes a lot of time, so I'm mostly drawing backgrounds at the moment. Next month I plan to make a short demo with a little bit of everything.
Romantic Horror Nights will be my best game so far and may be my last. I will be trying to write at least one or two updates a month. Pictures, gifs, videos, music... All the stuff blogs always have.
