I did a little more testing, and I am now so, SO mad at myself. Changing the language to Japanese through the Game Maker Engine then changing the in-game language to English makes everything make SO much more sense. Game Maker did not do the work that Zell put into this justice whatsoever.

EDIT: Here are some examples outside of the menus, so it doesn't seem like I'm rambling mindlessly.

This changes the game entirely for me xD
For some reason mine was default set to english. no idea why. Now i know what things do!

Supreme Dumbass of Thyme said:
It's set to that by default for everyone, and everyone here has been lost as a result. But thanks to the trooper that got curious, the game actually makes SENSE.

I feel like there is a misconception here.
Whenever I start the game it is in-......Japanese?
-and I have to go into the settings, tab key, to change it to English.
Now that there is progression the save system makes sense and works so that I no longer have to do this.
I don't even have to use the engine menu at all for changing language!
So either there is a misconception here, people messed up something by using both menus or for some it is just fucked from the get go.
Ok so for everyone now so that it works; you got to change the engines language to (Chinese? Japanese?) and the in-game menu, tab key, to English and everything should work.
I hope this works for anyone.

It's Japanese you have to switch it to, I'm not sure if it works in Chinese too. But yes, all those steps are correct. You do still have to change the language in-game to English, but the engine itself started in English for a lot of people for whatever reason.

First off...not gonna say anything to that, except fair enough. Second off, the reason I'm asking for a screenshot is because M wasn't bound at all for me, and I can't tell where it's SUPPOSED to be bound.

No bees are not cappable.

The grey-ish hearts mean you can't capture them while the black ones mean you haven't captured them.
Those being Bees, Harpies, Fenrir and the mush girls. (these 2 mushroom types really need to be renamed)

EDIT2:
Anyone got the resources for the music? It looks like the bgm files are encrypted. :/

Refer to this post please.

The files aren't corrupted, they are just encrypted. Here are the resources from the january build: Pixeldrain

shield breaker is best girl, plague doctor is close second

I think you quoted the wrong message there. (laughing sweat emoji)
I do like Vestel - Junia and Plague Doctor - Paracelsus.

Tho from what I heard “Zell“ consists of 2 different person, not only one (one responsible for pixel-art and animation and the other all coding and polish).

MrNice88 said:
The "we" in both posts are referring to work on Shiratane Tower which is being worked on by Zell and Ansala, Ansala does the coding and programming as he did in SA too and Zell the animations.
FOBS is Zell's baby, he works on that alone as far as I'm aware. I could be wrong but I know coding isn't Zell's forte even if there is two people, I pretty sure that still stands as he usually works with Ansala for that side of things.

Kisama33 said:
No, Ansala works on Shiro no Yakata, that was made by Zell alone before Ansala joined, because of some disagreements about some aspects of the game Zell made a new horror game, Shiratane Tower, this can be confirmed by checking both official pages for each dev and notice that we are indeed speaking of 2 different games.

Kisama33 said:
I just want to let you know that I'm not saying that I'm right and you wrong, it's just that I find some changes from the time Zell worked in the original FOBS and the horror games from the new FOBS Remake a little strange.

It's possible that it may be a mistake from the Machine translator, Japanese is complicated and many works don't have a literal translation and need to be replaced with something similar, but I don't know if that is the case here.

During the development of Shiratane Tower each new update only gave us 2 or 3 girls and a respective door and room for each of them. No new gameplay, no new areas, no story, no new mechanics and items (with exceptions).

But then the Remake of FOBS “started“ and with it we not only got the usual 2 or 3 more girls but we would also get proper gameplay, new areas, items, mechanic, QoL features and more. Idk, maybe it's only me but that transition it's a little too sudden to not consider that “We“ really means someone else helping the “original“ Zell. But there could be other reasons or I'm just overthinking.

millyrainbow said:
All of this is just silly. You are definitely overthinking it.
Even if FOBS is getting halp from a number two or more, Zell is still Zell. hes just one guy xD When he uses his blogposts or w/e, its him, not his number two or three or whatever P:
Thats just silly.

I think this all stems from the 2 user names Zell23 and Zell999.
Probably an alias, idk.

Supreme Dumbass of Thyme said:
Yeah, no, I was talking about Zell--wait. Why do I hear knocking at the door and the looming sound of "Baby I'm Yours?"

I don't get the reference. ._.

ah might be because of my recent factory reset then. I'm not really into stuff like that. So what do I exactly need to download for C++?

The fact that theres two kinds of mushrooms makes it all the more confusing xD

Hello, sorry for the bad English, after playing a little and closing the game I realized that I didn't save anything, how can I save my games?

Press up on the pillars with green orbs. To load a save file, click on the second blue button on the main menu, not the first one.

I hate to ask again, but I might be a little dumb. I've set that button to M, and it brings up the pause menu. But I do not understand how I'm supposed to access the map. I partially feel like there was a step I missed to properly get a map because of the item that looks suspiciously close to one.

The new girl in the dog house can't be captured right?

Spatus · Mar 3, 2025

I was recently trying to give a shot to the game but apparently the MSVPC120.dll file can't be found, any suggestion. I have this porblem with other games so an advice could be usefull
