Merry Marras

It's holiday time and you are full of holiday spirit, but again you left gift shopping to last minute, great job. You noticed recently abandoned former youth center and decides to scout it for possible "gift ideas" that might had been left behind. Unlike your other life decisions this one surely won't backfire, right?
Just do your best and try to gather something, nothing more is expected from you.

This was crazy thank God I read that note before facing pigman!
Video has chapters, this is the last one I played!
Good game! I like the concept, the atmosphere and the lore in this game.
One thing to mention; the enemy in the second floor was a bit unclear to understand on "what to do", so I had to resort on watching someone's video for that part.
But other than that, I really liked it! Tho maaayybe the NSFW mode option should be disabled by default, I don't know what or if it does anything, but you know lol
Happy Holidays!
Hi spookster, thank you for the video and feedback. The chase scene was hastily implemented and served primarily as filler, so sadly not much details nor thought was put into it.
As far as I remember, the NSFW version simply removed a few sexual related non-gameplay-related objects, so nothing of value was lost there.
I´m currently working on a sequel to Merry Marras, hoping to address the feedback and expand on the lore.
Very very cool game! I loved the style, the atmosphere and just everything in general!
Hi Tyv, thanks for the comment and the video, glad to hear environment did it's spooky jobn
THIS GAME WAS TERRIFYING. YOU'VE BEEN WARNED!
Hi Naten, thanks for the video and glad you found the game spooky enough.
Thanks for the video! Glad to hear you enjoued the game
Great game love it, scary and creepy, i wsh if there more of it, good job dev really thank you
Hi GM, thanks for the video and glad to hear you enjoyed the game. Upcoming game later this year should have more of everything.
Fun atmospheric game ! Could of used more spooks but if that's not the style you were going for, then that's alright too. Game still manages to make you think about what could come around the next corner.
I made a video on your game if you're interested :)Always enjoy watching videos, thanks! All current games (Urban Morbus, Merry Marras and Bleak Delivery) were rush jobs to test different things and get feedback, so honestly game had no real direction. That said, upcoming game later this year hopefully will do everything bigger and better.
I see. Excited for what comes next 🤞🏻
awesome game just finished playing with my friend ...<3
Hi Alli, glad to hear you enjoyed the game
Rather enjoyed this the mannequins made me laugh a bit to much. For a short game it was great 👍
Haha, glad to hear game made you laugh. Indeed, it was bit short game, upcoming game (later this year) should much more of everything.
LOVE THIS GAME! BUT ADD MORE JUMPSCARES :)
Hi Kuya, next game should have more content including more creepy and dangerous moments.
I really like your game, the story is good, but the game itself could have been a little scarier, with some small jumpscares in the main scenes
But anyway congrats on the game :)
Gameplay PT-BR
Hi Wiindy, thanks for the video. I do agree some more danger could had given game more content. Next game will continue the idea and is set to give you something virtual to fear and worry, hopefully.
For nothing I thank you. I will be looking forward to your next game xD
I enjoyed this game a lot. A few more jump scares and more chase scenes and it would have been near perfect!
Thanks for the video. Merry Marras had quite many missing things indeed, but all is not wasted as next year game "Dried and Dead" will continue and expand the idea of Merry Marras. This time Mannequins (assuming you can call them mannequins) are not quite... static.
I am looking forward to that. Merry Marras was still a great game, and I'm so glad you are continuing and expanding it!
Just played. video will be up sooner or later. channel name: ZestyZoocumber.
Hi CH, glad to hear. Wil be checking youtube later on for the video
Some damn creepy animations and graphics in this one. Never quite knowing who is gonna just go at you.
Hi Kev, glad to hear animations and visuals did their creepy job good enough
It feels like spooky Lego collecting)
Thanks for the video! Spooky lego collecting is perfect description indeed.
Really enjoyable little horror game. Lot of unique creepy designs here!
Thanks for the video Robb, honestly was very surprises to see this video on my youtube feeds, but it was very lovely surprise!
You're welcome.
The game actually showed up pretty high when searching for popular horror, so might get a few more :)
it doesnt work :( it doesnt start
Hi, can you see any errors or warning popups when starting game ?
None
Thanks for info. Do you have antivirus software ? If so, There is chance that your antivirus software is blocking the game from starting which is known false positive. In this case you can disable antivirus or add game folder/.exe file to your antivirus sofware whitelist.
Thx ^^
I really loved this game! Thank you for just an amazing short game!
Thank you for the video TimeTell ! Glad to hear you enjoyed the game.
It was a holly jolly spooky gift shopping 🎁🎄🎀
I'd love to be on a screen in your next game if you feel like it 🧡💗💜💛🖤💙💚❤👁👄👁
Hi Yuna, thank you for the video and glad to hear you enjoyed Merry Marras !

Thanks for doing second part !
😘
hi, big thx for the great scary game. this is my first part. greetings from rosti 🙏👍😘
Hi Rostriger, thank you for the video and happy to hear you found Merry Marras scary enough !
Hi itchio Horror, thanks for video and playing Merry Marras ! Glad to hear you enjoyed the game.
Thanks for playing Merry Marras, glad you enjoyed the game. While nothing worth to play again, there was small extra nod to you in "computer room" at computer monitor which had "google searches".
Funnily enough, I ran through the game again to get some better angles for the thumbnail and I happened to notice that. I actually laughed out loud when I saw it LOL. Thanks again for putting me in here, I'm honored! Sorry it took me so long to respond to your email LOL
Glad to hear you found it funny and no worries on delay, it was written in good spirit and as a joke (after chatting with you in one of your streams). Thanks for the video once again !
Thanks for playing Merry Marras. I can see how keycode part could be annoying / hard to spot, noticed that trend with other gameplay videos. Something I'm looking to improve for next release.
yeah dude if you want to put me on game or don't I don't mind
Show post...
VERY GOOD HORROR GAME DEV
Thank you for playing Merry Marras !
Nice horror game! I think it could use a little extra work like the sound design and stuff to make it more ambient later on in the game. But for what it is I really enjoyed! :)
Thank your playing Merry Marras. Sound design is indeed something which I have always found quite troublesome, hoping to improve upon that in future.
Okay so right from the beginning this was creepy, and it just got creepier the more I played! Would've loved maybe one more chase scene though! But overall, it was a great experience! Well done!
Hi swift3dge, I was actually just watching your video, thanks for playing Merry Marras ! About chase scenes and such, many of them were removed as I thought they would had been annoying in such limited space. Near the end originally mannequins were planned to come after you from the closed rooms (two larger rooms with double doors).
No problem! Ooooh that would've been so creepy and I can see why it would have been a little frustrating
Hi moooon, thanks for the video and glad to hear you found game to be scary enough.
Hi ezez game, thanks for the video.
Hi deebs, thanks for the video. Jump scares were bit limited indeed as I wanted to focus on different aspects this time around, mainly working on cutscene workflow for next project in mind and this smaller scale game worked as testing grounds for that. Glad to hear you enjoyed Merry Marras.
Probably one of the best Christmas-y horror games of the season. Definitely had a really good atmosphere. Thanks for sharing it with us!
Thanks for the video WildRozen, just finished watching it. Glad to hear you enjoyed Merry Marras.
That was a really cool experience. Creepy and weird. I love it! And thanks for the shoutout, dude! That's hella cool of you. I love the atmosphere in this game. It left me always wondering what was gonna happen next.
Thanks for the video, glad you enjoyed Merry Marras ! Not sure if you managed to see it, but your face was also featured in computer room (middle monitor).
I think I missed that but I'll go back and take a look!
Hi Viidee, thank you for the video ! I did watch your video and left little comment there earlier.
Creepy loved it.
Thanks for the video, glad to hear you did enjoy the game
Thank you for the video and feedback ! We did chat a bit over discord about feedback, some good points there indeed.
Thank for the video, glad to hear you enjoyed Merry Marras !
thanks man I like it
Hello. This is a great game! Highly detailed and the atmosphere is awesome! Game here:
Please subscribe!Thanks for the video and glad you enjoyed Merry Marras !
This game wasn't very scary, at least for me. I will admit the atmosphere was pretty solid and enjoyed the overall design of the game. The mannequins were absolutely terrifying...definitely kudos on that, especially appreciate the little tributes to the youtubers. Keep making games man, definitely enjoy them and look forward to more from you guys.
Happy Holidays
Hi Puppy Floppy, thanks for making video and providing feedback. I do admit I had problems trying to balance "scare factor". Most of the jump scares and loud noises were removed which might or might had not increased level of scary for certain people (I personally find them annoying, so decided to remove). Every feedback helps towards next projects, thanks again.
I appreciate the response, I personally hate constant loud noises and jumpscares around every corner. So finding a balance can be tough, I honestly can't imagine being a game designer. Your game was really well made and ran smooth which is already more than most can say. Keep me posted on more projects, always looking to link up with devs to try and get their work out there. Again man awesome job on the game and look forward to more from ya. Happy Holidays stay safe out there!!
PS im also on twitter and feel free to message me anytime on there about future projects
