I'd like to see more from this Marcus guy and get to know more about his morality. Does he have no problems killing but is specifically moral about being a good roommate or is he not bothersome so he has nothing that could stand in between him and having a peaceful living space? Stuff like that.
Hi!! Please thank your friend for me— 谢谢! <3 I'm really happy they enjoyed the game honored they want to make fanart! (Also, thank you for taking the time to pass this message along for your friend!)
They're absolutely welcome to draw Marcus! Fanart is totally okay and appreciated.
As for the questions:
1. Nope! As of now, he only has the front facing sprite from the game itself.
2. There's a few details I can answer here!
Likes: His roommate, blood
Dislikes: Untidy places
Age: Mid-20s
Personality: Polite, charming, considerate
Hobbies: Murder
3. The current game works as a complete experience on its own, but I may expand it more in the future!
Thank you again for the love and encouragement! Please tell your friend I'd love to see their fanart if they share it. <3
Hi Mich, thank you for the reply! My friend has drawn some fanart and has other questions as well. Here is their original message:
"I've drawn some fan art of Markus 💖💖 I really, really love him! 🥰 Besides that, I have a few questions for you:
1. What is Markus's background story like? When I'm creating fan works, I often find it hard to let my imagination run wild because there isn't enough information. The creation part is secondary; I'm mainly just really curious about why Markus became the way he is, and why he chooses to live with the protagonist (some people speculate that Markus might like the protagonist. He never kills the protagonist, he's willing to leave evidence openly, and he helps the protagonist get rid of annoying people...).
2. If it's convenient for you, could you please leave me an email address? I'm afraid of troubling my friend by asking them to send things for me all the time :(((( It's completely fine if you can't! Thank you so much for answering my questions and for creating this game."
Ahh!! Sorry for the late reply! The fanarts are so cute (I want to hang them on my wall.. TT). Thank you so much!!
As for the questions again!
1) I plan on exploring Marcus's backstory in the extended version, sooo it will be a secret for now. But I love that you're very curious about this serial killer's past!!
2) No problem! I don't mind leaving you my business related email, feel free to contact me on uncookfish.dev@gmail.com ^^*
Thank you so much for enjoying my game and taking the time to draw Marcus <3
Hi!! So sorry that I just saw this comment. Thank you so much for the kind words and I'm so so glad that you liked the plot and endings!! Thank you for playing and taking your time to leave this lovely comment <3
The background is really cute (so is Marcus) and I love the pixelation :3 This game makes me wonder what I would do, if I found out I was living with a serial killer. I'd probably be too scared to call the police, in case I end up on a kill list. At least he's a decent roommate...
Haha thank you!! I'm so glad you liked the background (and Marcus o-O). And true! I think most of us would be way too scared to do anything in that situation, and that's one of my inspirations for the game LOL. But, at least he keeps the place clean+ ^^
Thank you once again for playing and the comment!! Hehe
just finished playing your game and I simply wanted to tell you that it was so nice ! I love to play O2A2 games and yours definitely wasn’t an exception at all ! Your art is gorgeous, the story while simple is an interesting premise and you managed to make a good dynamic between Marcus and us in such a short time which definitely shows you’re indeed very talented in the creative field ! The fact that it’s your first game makes it even more exciting to follow your progress and since I’ve read your devlog I’m happy to know we’ll hear of Marcus again :) anyways just wanted to congratulate you for doing this well have a nice day （╹◡╹）♡
Ahh!! Thank you so much for your kind words, Asuna!! <3 I'm very flattered and genuinely honored from your compliments HAHAH
Thank you for reading the devlog as well! I had a lot of fun working on the game itself and also their dynamic. I'm really looking forward to sharing more of Marcus soon ^^
Thanks again for taking the time to write this, it made my day! (≧▽≦)
you fully deserve the praise so no need to thanks me after all I’m just sharing facts ♪(๑ᴖ◡ᴖ๑)♪
We totally see that you had fun and honestly i think that’s the reason why the game ended up really enjoyable which is awesome o(^o^)o
And you’re welcome I’m glad it made you happy then ! I wanted to make sure people reading the comments before playing knew they were in for a good moment (๑>◡<๑)
HII I just wanted to stop by to say that I LOOVED your game!!
For a short, limited vn like this one you sure did such a great job at creating the eerie yet alluring atmosphere. The choice of the sound efects and background music were also so immeresive and made 10 minutes feel like 10 seconds :')
Absoulte fan of your artwork btw, would love to see more of your work in the future!!
Hi, Alex! Thank you so much!! <3 I'm super happy and honored that you loved my game
I'm glad that I was able to capture the eerie and alluring atmosphere! I've always enjoyed games that had a similar setting and I was inspired by them. :] HAHAHA I'm also so glad that it was immersive for you! Unfortunately, due to jam restrictions, the game had to be very very short :'>
Ahh!! Thank you so much! I'm really happy to hear that you'll be looking forward for my future works!
Once again, thank you for playing and your lovely comment!! <3<3
A little late to the party here, but I wanted to give my compliments to the chef for this clever twist on serial killer tropes and moral dilemmas. For a first go at a visual novel, you really knocked it out, and in just 3 days, no less. Super impressive
Reading through your devlog, I could tell how much care went into orchestrating the dynamics between Marcus and the player, and getting this whole project flight ready. The little splashes of humour do a lot to seal the absurdity of the situation, while also oddly humanizing both characters. It makes for a tense yet entertaining ride all around, heh
Rest in pieces, Brad
I’m glad you found the spark for this and saw it through. Whether you decide to expand on this premise or dive into something entirely new, I’ll definitely be keeping an ear out
Thank you so so much for the kind words and playing the game!! <3 I'm really flattered and honored that you liked it, it means a lot To me TT
I'm glad the humor landed alongside the tension, it's one of the trickier (but fun) parts for me to balance. And also, thank you for reading the devlog as well! I'm especially happy you noticed the care that went into the devlog details too.
Brad deserves it, shhh
Whether I end up expanding on this idea or experimenting with something new, it's encouraging to know you'll be keeping an eye out. Thanks again for playing and taking the time to leave such kind words!!! <3
Thank you, Ren, for checking out my game!! I'm very honored that you're interested in seeing more of it TT Thank you once again for playing and the lovely words <3
Nice! I liked Marcus a lot, tho I wish the game explored this weird dynamic between him and the MC more, but again, I understand it was created for a short jam. Keep up the good work!
Thank you so much for playing, and I really appreciate the feedback! I definitely would've loved to explore more of that strange dynamic between Marcus and the MC too, there's so much potential there. The jam time limit kept things pretty tight, but I'd love to extend this game sometime in the future! Thank you once again for your lovely thoughts and encouragement! <3

Yes, yes (nods)! He is indeed respectful and classy. Thank you for the comment and for playing, Rei!! <33
这么美的立绘居然没有mac版，我的心好痛！！！
谢谢哈哈！心痛的是我啦,目前还没有 Mac版,但我 会努力想办法的!～
Hi, my friend from China saw your game and liked it a lot, but they couldn’t access this website so I am writing on their behalf ><
They would love to fanart your character and wanted to ask for your permission. They also have some other questions:
1. Does Marcus have a full character model (front, side, and back views)?
2. What are Marcus's other character details? (For example: height, weight, likes/dislikes, age, personality, etc.)
3. Is the current game release the "final version" or is it "still in development, with more chapters planned for the future"?
Thank you for making such an interesting game!

Here's a little extra thanks from Marcus
great game >////<
tho, I hope we can really date the serial killer
Thank you for playing and for your kind words!! <3 + You say that now... wait until he tries to kill you..! o<o
awwww 😭
I like the game very much, the graphics and sound effects are very good, I hope the author can continue to do it.
Thanks you so much, this really means a lot to me! <33
Totally get the MC, it is hard to find a decent roommate. Well-executed tense and uncomfortable atmosphere.
Thank you for playing!! And yes, exactly, I'm so glad you picked up on that! The roommate dynamic was definitely meant to feel tense and unsettling.
hi the art is gorgeous and i really like the plot and endings !!
