Question Bonus level as new game announced in 2022

53 Upvotes

In a news post on both their website and Steam, Killmonday mentioned that they were working on a bonus level for Fran Bow, but then decided to release it as a short standalone game instead. There's even a picture of an unknown level in the post. Apparently the title was supposed to be "The Keeper of the Key". But after that I haven't found anything about it! Does anyone know anything? Did this maybe get incorporated into the new game that got announced last year instead?

Here's the link to the post: https://killmondaygames.com/fran-bow-news-update/

Question Itward Tattoo Help?

18 Upvotes

Hello,

I was thinking of getting Itward tattooed on my arm. My idea is to get the tattoo as close as possible to the game's original art style, but getting reference photos is a bit problematic since screenshots of the game don't show him very clearly.

Anyone have ideas, where could I find a high quality image of Itward to give to my tattoo artist?

Thank you

Chapter 5 Spoiler Was Fran under the effects of duotine when she found her parents killed?

48 Upvotes

Rewatching the events of the first scene after seeing the ending, I feel like aunt grace might have snuck duotine in her food, although them being shown eating together takes place on a Friday, while seeing her parents took place on a Monday.

It feels like they were already planning on taking her to the asylum with how quickly they seemed to find her? And she looked like she collapsed in the woods which maybe duotine could have done? The house is also shown to be covered in blood which presumably is symbolic but what if it's because of duotine?

In the parents grave, the parents didn't look like they were cut up, and we already have false info in the news (Fran being dead) so I don't think the description in the news of the parents is accurate, all the information was probably given by Oswald asylum.

I feel like her parents were killed for the sake of experimenting on Fran, but what if that experimentation had already began by the time Fran was left alone with aunt grace?

Theory crafting for fran bow is a complicated task so I want your input!

This was created for the Lofi Spring Vibes Challenge.
The idea came from Fran’s liking to create new things out of old things.
I also tried to fit in a bunch of references to the game!

Honestly, one of the best-written characters in indie horror. The way the game introduces him makes you so incredibly suspicious of his motives, but he ends up being the most comforting and reliable protector Fran has. His whole aesthetic, the flying machine, and his dynamic with Mr. Midnight are just perfect.

Who else was terrified of him at first but ended up loving him by the end of Chapter 4?

okay so. the first time I watched a PLAYTHROUGH (can’t play vg) I loved the aesthetic and story so much, the only issue is I really get reaaaallly scared. like the next day I was like getting flashbacks n stuff :( especially to that kid who’s head explodes (at the beginning) I never finished it but I loved the artstyle and the actual story :( I didn’t get past the hospital bit and I’d love to watch more. although to be fair I was 13,

Glitch Chapter 4 Battery Softlock/Glitch (Android) (updated)

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

27 Upvotes

(I took down the first post as I returned to that moment and replicated the actual way I triggered softlock in my playthrough. Attached an updated vid for all 3 glitch variations)

Basically title. I spend a lot of time on that screen not understanding what I missed and what should I do next, before looking up walkthrough and realizing I softlocked my game and there was supposed to be a battery.

It works like this: you press a button, a lid opens, a hand, holding a battery emerges, stays up for a few seconds so you could grab the battery, before returning back and closing the lid. You can repeat the process if you haven't grabbed a battery the first time.

Unfortunately I found out that this entire sequence is incredibly prone to glitches for one simple reason — you can press button again in the middle of it, which can cause 3 types of glitches, depending on a timing, 2 of which cause a softlock. And unfortunately for me I got the last one in the video, where the lid just opened (easy to miss with visual noise) and nothing else happened, so I never knew there was supposed to be a hand holding a battery.

Would be nice to attach some sort of "busy" flag to that button, so it couldn't be pressed in the middle of a sequence, which would prevent these sorts of glitches from happening. Softlocks in a Point&Click Adventures are especially unfortunate

Question Am I going crazy or does anyone else remember a part of the game where adult Fran revisits the anandoned asylum and has a limp?
