New game: PATTERN SCREAMERS is now released!
Hi...
It almost feels like it's been a while...
But yeah...
We got a new game here.
I'm proud to announce the release of PATTERN SCREAMERS: an adult horror thriller puzzle visual novel inspired by the SCP mythos' "Pattern Screamers".

Written by Fouzi and developed by us at Strange Girl Studios, this game is basically the culmination of our experience in the indie game industry for the past 8 months.
For starters, we really made sure that we followed what essentially is a "game development process" for this game to make the process as efficient and effective as possible. Here are a few early concept arts for one of the game's characters:
Every part of the game started on a sketch, unlike our previous games like Lovecraft Locker. Doing it this way has proved to be effective and powerful in the long run. Here's an initial sketch of the map:
What ended up in the game now looks like this:
This same process applies to the visual novel scenes of the game.
Anyway, all that talk aside, so yeah. I hope you guys will like PATTERN SCREAMERS.
Our team and Fouzi really worked hard to make this game as polished and as immersive as possible.
Like always, our loyal Patrons will receive a free full copy of the game here via Patreon's messaging system. If you at least have a subscription worth $30 (lifetime value), you should receive a message for the download link.

Awesome game so far, can't wait to see more, really like the art style as well :).
In which Patreon lvl is the game included?
Agree with Mint, be more upfront in the future. It could leave bad taste in some people's mouths. If it was just a short demo release then I'd understand more but I paid for your Patreon sub and then 9.99 on Itch for a couple of minutes of entertainment. Your version nomenclature needs to be more clear. I should know at a glance whether a paid version has more content or not.
Perhaps we need to optimize the game a bit more in terms of progression, as it seems you guys weren't able to access the rest of the scenes and story via current means.
Erm, is that it? Just two scenes? If it's a game in development that's one thing but surely you should make it much clearer that what you are getting is a WIP version? I was very excited when I tried the demo and so bought the full version, but was disappointed with how little content there is at the moment (even if it is quite high quality).
The Itch.io page for Pattern Screamers says there are "9,000+ words of dialogue", which should imply there should be more than two scenes on the current full version. The demo though only has two "main" scenes.
