The Muffin Man - An RPGMaker Strange Man Saga Fan game: Prologue Showcase

Just posted a showcase on the Prologue for my future project.

If you guys could take a look at it and make some comments about said Showcase, it would be greatly appreciated

!!EVERYTHING SEEN IN THIS SHOWCASE IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE FOR THE FULL RELEASE!!

Showcasing the Prologue of the fan game entry for the Strange Man Saga, "The Muffin Man", that Ive been solo-working on for quite a bit now.

Synopsis: After being forcefully paired up in a group project, Regan Blumberg and Anne Flanagan are kidnapped by the so-called "Muffin Man", waking up in an abandoned and remote location. They now have to avoid the lurking man while solving games and puzzles he left out for the two to solve with the help of others in the same conditions.

Creator Notes: This fan game is a passion project after not liking the way both Anne Flanagan nor Regan Blumberg were seemingly written by the end of the Sand Man, leaving a lot to be desired, yet never being followed up upon. And considering Richard Grundler got another major role in the next entry, why not do the same for Anne and Regan? They're personally my favorites to come out of this franchise, so being able to finally develop them by my own liking.

“Any human has a personality, a body, and a name, it's what makes an Identity

Now if you were to replace its personality, then its body, and finally its name.

Would said person still have the same identity?

Or would it display a new one?”

I've challenged myself to write a fanfic that features Sato (shocker i know) and Yasuke Matsuda, someone I haven't written for before this. I wanted to try and make something kind of unique that subverts expectations in a sense and one that challenges my writing skills. The hardest part was writing a Sato that loves a man.

Guys, Kodaka himself has just sent me the death order for the next remake after 2x2. the dr1 remake 1÷1.

Ok but fr, I thought it would be fun that if there were ever a remake of the first game, full commit to an Alternate Timeline, and what more fun way to do so than to make it reference back the obscure side entry, Makoto Secret File? In which we get to learn a girl was meant to be the SHSL Lucky student before the events of the entry happened and it ended up being repicked and landed on Makoto. But like, what if in this AU that never happened and the unknown named girl got into Hopes peak? I think it could be a fun timeline to use.

dont mind the death order, I was going for what I found funny and cool and silly

What if Class 76 was a full batch of characters: REMAKE

This is ADORABLEEEEEE! 💖💖💖💖💖💖 I LOVE THEMMM

That face when your favorite character has their sickest moment in a side manga. Sato never had as much aura before or after this moment.

Genuinely it surpasses any moment of danganronpa 3 that included Sato. And that is saying a lot coming from someone who really REALLY REALLY likes the characterization they give her in that entry. Like, the fact that Sato just appears inside the game itself and seems to be self conscious AND THEN LITERALLY HAVE CHIAKI REPLACE HER ROLE IN THE GAME?! Come on dude, if that isn't awesome af then i don't know what is.

It also brings questions as how this happened? Like is this the real Sato somehow in the game? Is this Chiaki imagining things? or is it something else? Also not to mention, second best design they have ever made for her, with first of course being dr3 (no surprise).

Just a completely normal and very nice screenshots of SDRA2 Chapter 5, nothing wrong! Nope!

Hey y'all! The Surviving Melody AU guy here, its been some time since the last post and I do apologize, Ive just been busy with some other personal projects and Uni to really have time to develop the AU that much. BUT I decided to take this time today to do as so! And I am very happy with what I came up with.

As you can see, a lot happens here, one of the main things is Hibiki and Yoruko argument. It takes place as a semi-replacement of the Sora and Yoruko argument, happening before said happens. It serves as both more screen time for Hibiki, and also more for her to do! I think the fight was gonna happen at one point or another with how I was developing Hibiki and Yuki's relationship, both being close and there for each other when their respective "big sibling" figure dies. And with the way Yoruko treated Yuki in chapter 4 and 5, Hibiki was going to retaliate one way or another.

So what better way to do it than in the worst moment Hibiki could find Yoruko and Yuki in? In this timeline, Hibiki joins Sora after she cant find Yuki, thats because throughout the first half of chapter 5, she acts as some sort of guardian to Yuki after the chapter 4 trial and the reveal of Utsuro in Yuki, so she constantly is trying to bring that out of him. That is why she and Sora team up to look for the two.

And after finding out whats happening? Hibiki snaps at Yoruko, basically telling her off at how hypocritical and mean she has treated Yuki in comparison to the rest. Which in turns causes Yoruko to pretty much tell Hibiki what she told Sora in the original.

And then we have the final part, which... I'm actually going to leave it to you guys to theorize about! I thought it would be fun to leave some parts unexplained for now so people could come up with their own theories about it. It will definitely be explained, and I already do have why this happens, but this gives me a way for me to interact with anyone that follows these posts and to also get inspired by any ideas to develop said AU!

Anyways, this is all I have to say for the time being, hope you guys liked the more experimental path I am going for this Universe as a way to give Hibiki more to do. And I will try and come back to more regular posting, no promises though!

They are each other's gender swap version of themselves.

I feel like Spike Chunsoft wanted to do something with these two being related in a way, because how are they so similar in almost every aspect? I mean, they both get introduced in dr3 (Sato is a dr2 character i know, but she got PROPERLY introduced in dr3), they both have green hair with purple eyes, their personalities consist of being cold and easily angered, and not to mention how gay asf both of these guys are. That, with the combination at how Sato was just never given a first name ,not only in the anime itself but in literally any other promo art there is of Sato, makes me think that originally they had the idea to make these two siblings by retconning Sato's last name into a first name and giving her the full name of "Sato Sakakura", but somewhere along they line they scrapped said idea and just never bothered to give Sato a new first name.

I think its kinda sad if that was the case, it would have made Sato just a tad bit more relevant in the story, which she was pretty robbed out of being, but it would have also given Juzo another reason as to why he hates the ROD members, as one of them was the reason his sister got killed, and now Makoto was "saving" them too. I'm honestly super happy that many fans have made them siblings, as they really do fit together. Myself included, only that mines a bit more complicated than the others. Though if I try and explain it then we'll be here for a week.

Danganronpa Killing Game if it was actually really awesome (basically if it consisted of my favorite DR characters + ones that have potential for a/another KG)

There is no genuine reason for the death order other than "it just sounded cool" so like there is no real logic behind these deaths.

Also, yes I know I have possibly the weirdest fav roster of all time, no its not because I wanna be unique, I just really found myself enjoying them despite most having next to no screen time/are really unpopular.

[brunellio]

Dont mind me guys! Just posting my very normal SDRA2 Chapter... 3 playthrough? wait what.

Hey guys! I know this is a pretty surprising twist from me, but before I continue on with chapter 5 of my Living Melody AU, I thought it would be kinda fun to go back and develop some of the changes that I think deserve a bit more of attention, so expect this one and maybe the next one to focus on the execution and the talk everyone has after Nikei reveals he is a void.

As for the execution, I thought I would take a more creative and unique approach than other Hibiki survives AUs. Most of them feature the fact that the key actually does bring one of them to safety, or that since Hibiki was being controlled it doesn't count. My problem with both of these reasoning is that Mikado would never let this happen intentionally, he is expecting 3 people dead by this case, so deliberately forgiving Hibiki on his own accord feels odd.

So the way I fixed this problem is instead make it so that its something OUT of Mikados control, and what better way to do it was with the way Hibiki was able to remove Kanade off from her? Instead of hitting Kanade a few times with the mic to let her go, what if instead something inside of her snaps and decides to finish her off and kill her right then and there? And since there is never said to be a timer on the execution, Hibiki after finishing her kill just freezes on the spot from shock. It fixes the entire problem of Mikado intervening for some reason to save one of the sisters when he needs 3 people to die.

Its also an awesome idea IMO because of how nobody wins this time:

Hibiki doesn't win because she now directly caused the death of her own sister, quite literally killing her and getting her own hands dirty. This, as Ive explained before, worsens Hibiki's mood throughout most of chapter 4 moving on.

Mikado doesn't win because now the entire case is ruined, there were 2 killers instead of 1, 1 victim instead of 2, not a void kill, and now after a lot of pressure from the others, the 2nd killer gets spared too.

the other guys don't win because now they have a broken Hibiki on their side, basically going back to not trusting anyone again and being distant, putting a strain and main cause now for Yuki to start to doubt the bond they all had.

And even Kanade doesn't win as she is now instead brutally killed by the one person she was controlling, not getting to see the death of Hibiki before her and I even wanted to make Kanade show actual genuine fear on her lasts moments to kind of emphasize that Kanade is still human and can experience said things.

So yeah, no one wins. This one is a lot shorter but that's meant to be the point, they're meant to be more lore building to past things I've mentioned before and felt like they needed a more in depth explanation. If I do continue doing this, next one might be related to the talk of Nikei and bonding right at the begging of Chapter 4, where Hibiki would take Yuki's side on not being able to trust people anymore.

[brunellio]

Yet another SDRA2 Chapter 4 screenshot! Nothing to see... OK yeah, no one is falling for this anymore.

Part 3 of my Living Melody AU: (Hibiki Survivor). Last post I explained how I wanted to touch more on Yuki and Hibiki's relation and here I'm doing just that. I wanted to do this specifically because I genuinely love these two together, ship or not, with just how much in common they start to have once chapter 3 rolled out. And I want to use it to its potential.

So, as I've stated before in other posts, Hibiki would take Yuki's side in this timeline when he goes on a tangent about not being able to work together after the third trial. Considering the closest person to her turned out to be a horrible person and the second closest one died by her and technically your hands as well, so i say its obvious she doesn't agree that bonding will make them not kill each other. The other reason as to why I made it so that she agrees with Yuki is to that they themselves can get closer, having someone take Yuki's side during chapter 4 ESPECIALLY after Shinji's death can honestly help him out. I doubt it would have stopped Yuki from experiencing the things he did in the original AU, but it would at least give him something to hold on to, which I think is cute.

I could see Hibiki staying close to Yuki after the talk shown above, which would happen when they're still trapped under Teruya's control in the room. In a sense, Hibiki starts using Yuki as a way to move on from Kanade and stop depending on her. As I've stated before, Hibiki feels responsible for the way Kanade started acting as a result of the harassment she inflicted on her from Hibikis inferiority complex. Having someone to just talk it out would feel refreshing and would mark as a good step in the right direction.

Another thing she would do is honestly call of Yoruko on the way she was treating Yuki this chapter, and saying Yoruko never showed the same resentment when Hibiki was the one crying instead. She basically works as a new partner for Yuki, and Yuki works as a new partner for her, they both have each others back. So you know she is going to get absolutely furious at Nikei when he reveals the truth about his plan to the rest and how Yuki was meant to be the culprit of the case.

But I think the most shocking part for Hibiki will be the reveal of Yuki being used as a vessel from VOID for the creation of Utsuro. Hibiki reacting to this and to Yuki slowly turning into him, knowing that she was also in that position and that its now happening to the person closest to her now, it absolutely freaks her out. This is my reasoning as to why Hibiki would stay relatively close to Yuki at all times during Chapter 5, trying to bring the old Maeda back and attempting to stop the transformation into Utsuro. But more on that when I reach chapter 5.

Anyways yes, this was an excuse to post Hibiyuki, but I tried my best to not be as biased and just make both of them survive all happy and dandy and live a happy life as a couple.

Throwback to that time I had a mental breakdown over seeing her again in chapter 6.

Just another completely normal SDRA2 Chapter 4 playthrough! nothing wrong at all.

Hey, here's another little scene i thought up for this completely normal SDRA2 playthrough, AKA one where Hibiki survives her execution, AKA Surviving Melody AU, AKA Hibivivor, AKA me wanting to rant about the lack of care she got after her death and how I would have handled her, whatever you wanna call it. Since I went through what I thought Hibiki could go through after chapter 3 and what development she should go through, why not go for smaller details like... How does she react to Nikei's reveal of the digital world and that everyone is "supposedly" alive?

Before that though, I should probably clarify HOW Hibiki survives her death. As someone pointed it out last post, and I responded with this:

"I thought an interesting Idea would have been that instead of reaching for the key, Hibiki fully finishes off Kanade off my slamming the mic against her and killing her on the spot before falling to the ground in shock of what she did unable to move. From what I saw in the Original, one of them grabbing the key and using it meant the end of the execution by having the other one hanged, so if none of them could grab the key, it potentially goes on forever. Mikado eventually just says "screw it, this case is already going horribly" and just decides to spare Hibiki and bring her back. I mean, with how she is right now, she can barely do anything."

So to clarify, in this timeline, everything goes the same right up until the execution, where instead of Hibiki running to get the key after slamming Kanade with the microphone, she gets a sort of urge to just finish her off right then and there and kills Kanade herself with the microphone. From looking at the execution, grabbing the key and using it implies the end of the execution, there doesn't seem to be anything else that could kill them. So if potentially neither of them grab the key, it goes on forever. Of course, were not having Hibiki get stuck in the platform; after a bit of time and a lot of pressure from the rest of the survivors, Mikado snaps and complies to spare Hibiki from the execution. I know this wouldn't really happen per say? But I see it as Mikado thinking "This case is already fucked up enough, and also this girl is so dead inside she might as well be dead overall" Not the best reason, but it works.

Now then, how does Hibiki take the digital world reveal? Not good as you can see, not at all. I like the contrast between everyone else feeling so relieved and Hibiki just STRESSED OUT, I mean its obvious, after everything that happened with the twins last chapter, she wouldn't want to see Kanade again. Not just because of what Kanade did, but because what she herself did. She killed her sister willingly, and she is still trying to bear through that. Not to mention how I made implications that Hibiki was trying to move on from Kanade and not be needlessly dependent on someone else, and here Nikei says that it will all revert back to how it was before. She would absolutely break further, just like kicking a nearly dead horse who is cold, losing blood and has 40 different deadly viruses on its body.

Though, in a weird, twisted way, Hibiki does miss Kanade in this timeline, not because of what she did, but because she still wishes to have someone when she is scared, when she is in a moment of need, she had someone by her side. Its the same reason why she would miss Setsuka, but from what I also described last post, she would deny anyone trying to do so, because she doesn't want to see them die from (what she believes) her fault.

In the end, her story in chapter 4 would be about leaving the past behind, and Chapter 5-6 would be about moving into a new future. Even if Hibiki did want to stay behind and be comforted and catered, she knows she has to move on and develop as a person.

If I ever do more of these, next one will most likely be about Hibiki and Yuki's relation going from chapter 4 onward, how it affects Yuki and the others, and how it continues Hibikis character arc. If you have any more ideas on what could happen, leave them on the comments, I will try and take them into consideration.

I just realized I accidentally left a Sora textbox when it was Hibiki talking in image 11… Oopsie! we will just say it was a game error, kay?

[brunellio]

Just going through a completely normal SDRA2 Chapter 4 playthrough! Nothing to see here...

I'm still super bummed out about Hibikis fate ngl. I'm still gonna hold on to the fact that I believe she could have been a sick survivor. Like, for me its just a thing that should have happened (not biased at all...) considering that her death quite literally gets glossed over, and that she gets mentioned like TWICE throughout chapters 4-5. I also don't get the whole "she would have not done much after this" or "her character arc doesn't fit" when it very much can, its just that people usually think that Hibiki has to stray away from Kanade when you can make her character arc now focus on self reflection.

Think about it, by technicality, Hibiki is both the direct and indirect cause for cases 1 to 3 to happen, case 3 is obvious, but case 1 and 2 could have potentially not happened if they hadn't tried cheering her up, cause the two murders happened during the planned gathering to cheer her up. While obviously a murder would have happened anyways, its VOID and they need to recreate the murders, I can 100% see Hibiki making such connection after case 3, especially in such a moment where everything she had just fell apart. This leads to a new Hibiki, one that still pushes people away, but for their own safety as she doesn't trust herself to let her guard down and cause another murder to happen. While she is going at it the worst way possible, she wants to start and stand up for and take care of herself without the need of other people. Heck, do we want more self reflection? How about make Hibiki question the fact that SHE was the reason Kanade turned out to be like she is? Her own inferiority complex and need to stand out from her sister lead to her sister becoming insane. Whether its true or not, Hibiki cant possibly know, and that's what the fun part is, true or not, have Hibiki reevaluate her entire life and choices she did. Her arc can revolve around self-reflection and becoming more independent by forgiving one self and turning a new leaf.

Also, I could see Hibiki, just right after the events of the third trial, not only agree, but maybe even defend Yuki in chapter 4 when he has his moments of falling out, because she KNOWS that Yuki isn’t far from the truth, her literal most closest person is outed to be manipulating and killing your second closest and all of that shit that Kanade did? Yeah, I would agree with Yuki too if that were me. It makes the group feel like its starting to actually split apart instead of it feeling like Yuki vs everyone else. It also sparks a new dynamic between the two considering just how IDENTICAL many of their traits are.

Anyways, Hibiki x Yuki for life. Yeah this was an excuse to both post about how much I love Hibiki and Hibiyuki. SO WHAT?!

[brunellio]

I'm not gonna lie, I think Nana and Yoshiki are adorable together

I wouldn't go as far to say, ship it, but i think their dynamic is actually adorable. The fact that Nana might be one of, if not the only person in this damn game to really treat Yoshiki with genuine respect and admiration just MELTS my heart. I really wanted to see more of these two together, its actually a shame that these two seem to be the punching bags for the writers 🥺
