Exe tries to save the holidays

“Exe tries to save the holidays” is an extra Friendship Test story that takes place a few months after the events of the game. In it you play as Exe, who has accidentally caused a power outage and begins a journey to make everyone happy to make up for her mistake. She is joined by Spike, who doesn’t help much but offers her the emotional support she very much needs. Meet up with familiar faces to see how their lives are going after their adventures in Friendship Test. Give them gifts, help them with their personal struggles and make sure Exe interacts with the least amount of life forms as possible, cause she is not having a good time It is recommended that you only play this game AFTER you have completed Friendship Test! Visual warnings -Interacting with the game with your mouse creates flashing boxes when you click on a character, object or tile. It's adviced to play with your keyboard or controller if you wish to avoid this. -When navigating through the menu or choosing a dialogue, there is a flickering light that highlights which text you are currently positioned in. Should not cause too much trouble, but a warning just in case doesn't hurt. -There is an issue with some sprite animations and text box sprites, as they flicker for a second on occasions. -There is a running option, so it can show some fast movements on the screen. -Numerous scenes include a shakey camera effect. -Some rooms are entirely lighted in one color (red, blue, green, etc), which might cause eyestrain for some. Content warnings -Discussions of depression, agoraphobia, OCD, intrusive thoughts, past abuse and suicide -Animal endangerment, kidnapping and implied experimentation -Unreality, related to a nightmare sequence -Character comes close to panic attacks -Internalized ableism -Aphobia -Family abandonment Content warnings are provided in-game, with longer details as to how these themes are presented. Viewer discretion is adviced. The game let's you skip dialogue and fast forward scenes if you hold down the (X) key on your keyboard or hold left click on your mouse. Music The game includes free-to-use music made by many talented people. None of the music belongs or is created by me. All artists are credited at the end of the game. Compatibility I decided to only release this game in Windows since that is the only platform I can test and the one that gave Friendship Test the least amount of problems. I apologize for the inconvenience! Other issues English is not my first language, while I believe to have a good level, it might be noticeable sometimes that this was written by someone whose first language isn't English. While the game has been playtested multiple times, it's always possible there can be a couple of typos, as I am only one person (+ a friend of mine who was my playtester) working on this game. Don't be shy to let me know about any typo or error though. Controls -For keyboard: Move around with arrows. “Z” or “Enter” to interact with objects or characters. “X” to open your menu and to fastforward conversations and scenes. -For mouse: Click left to interact with objects or characters. Holding left allows you to fastforward conversations and scenes. Click right to open your menu. -The game also works with controllers! I hope you enjoy this small continuation!
