In what seemed to be a peaceful night in the Hololive headquarters, A-chan works hard late in the night until she receives a distress call from Sora. Rushing to meet her, she finds her friend beaten up.

  A misterious person has been attacking different Hololive members, corrupting their hearts in the process, and now A-chan must step forward and put an end to this confrontation before it's too late.

  HoloGame Project: Corrupted Heart is a shoot em up inspired by Touhou made with Game Maker Studio 2 exclusively by me, designed to be just a small simple game that you can play in one sitting without any additional game modes, at least for now, released for Windows and Linux. I hope you can enjoy this little game, even when it's a bit on the hard side, and if you do, please let me know by posting your highscore and any criticism you may have, it would really make my day!

  Please note you can also download the soundtrack, feel free to remix any song you may like or to use them for videos/other projects, as long as you give me credit!

  You can also find a youtube playlist of the soundtrack here!

  Thank you and have a nice day!

  

Info and future:

The game has a playthrough time of around 25-30 minutes more or less.

  The linux version has been tested in linux mint and ubuntu, I'm not sure if it will work in other distributions, but if it doesn't work in yours, please contact me and I'll see if I can fix it.

  As for additional content, I don't have anything planned as of now. The only thing I'd like to do is to translate it into Japanese, but I don't know Japanese so I won't be able to do it.

  

Controls:

The game supports keyboard, controllers and arcade sticks, at least the ones tested, and you can change the controls in the options menu of the game, but in case you need them, the default controls are:

  WASD - MoveLeft Shift - Focus modeJ - Accept/ShootK - Back/Encore (Encores are the bombs of this game)L - Pause

Features:

Use your encores to clear the screen, gaining points in the process!Move close to bullets and enemies to gain gracing points!Get power notes (red) and unlock power stages to gain damage and spread!Enter focus mode to move with more precision and straighten your spread!Use your encore the moment you are hit to avoid losing a life at the cost of two encores, or one encore if it's your last one!

Hardware specs.:

I imagine pretty much anything slightly modern or not that modern can run it, since it's just a simple 2D game with a relatively low resolution. But the lowest spec computer I was able to test the game in was a thinkpad x250, if you have one with lower specs than that and are able to run the game, please let me know to update this information.

  

Contact:

If for some reason you want to contact me to send me a message or just say hi (which I'd be really happy for), you can send me an email at strellynera at gmail dot com (written like this in case some bot is scanning for email addresses).
