Deep Night Detective - Hurry & Solve The Mystery Before Someone Else Goes Missing

hey everyone this is manly badass hero and welcome to deep night detective chapter one a mystery horror metroidvania where you play a spooky detective solving spooky mysteries father martin hill grove and i still get letters usually around the same time of year they stop being intelligible or coherent at some point in the lay knots before they became a fixed stew of expertise and promises they were angry confessions funny enough february 1997 father hill grove walked into my office swinging through his clerical collar putting a cassette tape on my desk and not saying a word for five whole minutes i shouldn't be doing this the tape was recording of the hank boyd in a confessional this is the last time father the very last time void contune is shaky mudders now stop i'm told it i've just got to do this one last girl not a member of hell grove's congregation but modern was understandably concerned for her nonetheless he should have gone directly to the cops i could only get two of the right people and through the right channels so quickly i wasn't able to keep hill grove a secret and we didn't make it in time to save her nobody came out that one happy and refuse the money hill grove was excommunicated and void regrets apparently very loudly ever having trusted anyone in his whole life a rare quiet day something about the summer heat makes people suspicious i guess because spooky private investigations pulls in great business this time of year a cheating husband job came up totally dry and the wife is suspicious enough to pay for another week's investigation it would take a pretty big idiot to turn down an easy job and even bigger he had to waste his time on it so i sent callaway to tell the guy it's pretty far below his pay grade too man oh well i sent him not because i don't have the time but exactly because i do he needs something to do and i need to enjoy a summer's day for once besides i'm sure it's only a matter of time before the phone starts ringing again then or the other thing happens i'm hoping it's the phone this time the ever looming idea that such a rude interruption could be right around the corner makes me want to get as much sunlight as i possibly can i'm going for a walk interesting we have like a ghostly punch [Music] my mini bar i hardly touch it keep my flask in my desk this is for show for high cast can't tell even though they never actually show up at my office [Music] i keep records of all my cases i've been detective a little longer than most these aren't even all my files i have some in storage [Music] my desk a bank lamp and admittedly old-fashioned telephone no computer web offer i do most of my work with my phone zeus is a computer person around here can't select that one yeah weird oh well hey susie how's trixx slow day for once no calls are you today mr spooky feeling pretty spooky how you doing you know what i'm kind of relishing a quiet day is that so yes in fact it is i think i'm going to go out for a walk would you like me to bring you back some lunch i'm a little strapped right now i shouldn't be spending the money it's my treat oh pick up a gyro and a small coke then we'll do be back in just a bit thanks mr spooky case dennis office walls are pretty good at keeping out the drill sounds the screaming not so much a therapist office or some guy with phd i don't know advanced services technical solutions i think it's a call center bathroom some company that works with computers as susie about them she doesn't know him i go to her for computer stuff i don't understand it at all oh no not again damn it well being taken to the shadow realm well this is a pisser i think summoned against my will let's at least hope it's a plank paying client this time so where am i in the underworld interesting you can become a ghost boo hey hey well i assume you're just summoned as we usual if you're going back i am hang up your coat on the astral coat rack you can retrieve them on the other side as well thanks yes you were able to pass through it because of that it's quiet there seems to be some kind of dusty shack like an old backyard shed but bigger without gardening supplies ah that's so spooky is it a raspy voice caused from behind me a bundler it appears he must be the one who summoned me take one last contemplative silent look around to make sure i'm not in any danger before i give the guy a time of day the same how can i help you my name is edward manheim i am a servant of winterfield manor and of the owners june and july abernathy i'm afraid we're in need of private assistance he says in the practice we'll not see it growl his voice is charred and gravely but well spoken easy to understand like an expensive organ with rusty pipes do you have a phone need to call my secretary but of course the phone is in the main house we can discuss the details of your potential employment inside unlike that potential employment it means i'm allowed to decline and that they plan to pay me good it also means he's not one of these kids who thinks that the high price of me summoning in the old book refers to their soul or something like they can pay me magic money that comes from inside you i'm already here might as well hear them out lead the way man i'm right this way sir i wonder when this is going to come in now they label a metroidvania but i'm not sure if it's a literal metroidvania or that's going to come in like later kind of thing wait one second edward before we go inside i stop him from walking any further he told me that mindham is fine in lieu of edward what's the general gist of what's going on here i wonder from you first before i hear from anyone else manheim's face doesn't change the butlers are never that expressive we believe mr spooky but the house may be haunted lots of houses are haunted manheim most of them in fact only house i know that's not on his mind which is arguable seeing as i live there the police have 20 several disappearances in the winterfield manor we would very much appreciate if you would investigate the manor before the police made a mess of things july abernathy believes the cause to be spectral nature that's his first guess i feel like there'd be pretty convenient explanation right why is that what he jumps to the abernathy family has always had an interest in the supernatural i believe you may have assisted the late augustine abernathy in 1984. i may have mr abernathy is curious to see if you can now confirm his suspicions regarding the strange nature of the household i respond perhaps someone's short of my approach quick question what if he's wrong oh it's not ghost making people disappear i cannot begin to speak on his perhaps something mr spooky if he danes to return soon you can speak to him about then it seems to be manheim's last word on the situation before he leaves and turns back towards the house well there goes here yes obviously i could feel them around here but these are seem to ghosts the answers to the anthony's problem let's hope so for those sake so where are we going in here are we just going over here hoppity hop hop here we go deep night detective book one sympathy for the devil oh sweet are you sure you can't tell me anything else regarding the case i've given you all the relevant information i have mr spooky how about some irrelevant information with respect mr spooky you are a member of the private sector i should hope you not insist i infringe upon my employer's privacy fine so what are you giving me is essentially the police told you people have disappeared here that's not allowed to go on you are also free to investigate the home within reasonable limitations you believe that's not enough to justify your time i'll make do thanks anyway manheim i pray that you not take it too personally knows what it was impractical i'll take a look around maybe this is pretty much where being a part comes in because it's got like the layout like a platformer and look we can punch and jump pardon me i see the woman blocking the entrance of the southwest wing hello there detective valerie bordeaux i'm afraid that might not be the best moment don't mind me saying could you come back in every time why is that it's being fumigated or something yes it's being well though i mean no no it's not being humiliated but you can't go in right now june is unwell right now the direct approach really works on a wilting violin like this one unless you're willing to scare them off or upset the fragile ecosystem of a suspicious house verily bordeaux you say may ask you to what your relationship to the owners i'm a a friend of june's abernathy we've been close for some time now my apologies valerie i didn't realize that the abernathy said company this evening i'll try to be discreet no it's it's no problem at all detective may i ask that you come by to continue investigation later i will return later then that's reaction i'm wondering about she's ashamed of her relationship to june abernathy but is open about her closeness with her this means she's likely a living houseguest fascinating thank you for your time again miss bordeaux manhunt didn't say anything about a sick wife can't go there dog hey pooch bark how you doing buddy all right got a case note about a dog great we have help too see it it's like what's gonna come after us [Music] this door doesn't go anywhere go above our developer the case to get that too developer i'm bothering you about right now developer huh something else to get away from this crown i better stick around a moment see what everyone can tell me this door doesn't go anywhere i approach a butler who seems to be guarding out wing of the manor his eyes are narrowed and intense i find myself immediately put off detective spooky i start off in a harsh and yuling tone i recognize her stare i've been around the block a few times and i'm not letting you make a single assumption about my work here i've been hired by your employer to investigate the manner salazar he says because i say here not shifting i'm certain he's impressed with my poems but doesn't want to appear over here last name herrera i can each step aside mr pereira i'm afraid my employers have not given me word to allow you to passage detective we have other locations that are of course open for investigation i implore that you explore them i'm going to require unprohibited access to the mandate of people investigation i say a little more relaxed now that i know the act isn't going to work on her it's almost a relief that's going to be quite impossible detective he spits the words mean like he's offended i'd ask and then stand stood faster from the door damn so i can speak to the owner what the bundler says goes otherwise owners find out i've been mistreating her staff and barging into restricted areas then i get fired and i'm just wasting my time here and this case is actually kind of interesting so you're taking the chance that the murder weapons not behind you then never be worried about obstruction of justice uh your boy determines murder have your detective you have known better than the used unqualified hypothetical from a payment getting old haven't determined that's not really could be anything mr pereira [Music] when you have made a determination i assure you that i will be more than willing to assist you with your investigation it gets off of this i can tell giving you time to personally prepare to be cooperative my criminal investigation sounds like something a professional would do to be sure i'll be back later then he scoffs under his breath with this his piss and reaction gave me a stronger sense of shadow freud than my therapist would be happy with i wonder if this guy ever gets a migraine pushing his brow down like that all day long there's nothing over there hop over here oh look we can float sweet it's locked like a lot of doors around here except it smells like a graveyard like first remote grass like asphalt and rubbing alcohol like death somehow like condensed anime conventions so it doesn't go anywhere off the developer hey there manheim mr spooky i'm afraid then i cannot let you into the north west wing why am i gonna investigate you guys ain't really under any wings he drops me as i attempt to scoot past him mr abneffy has received access by anyone but immediate family in the police you don't say i'm afraid that i do i think i catch him twitching his eyebrow as he says this illustrating an uncharistic amount of expressiveness on his part he did say something about restricted access fine if this turns out to be too great an obstacle for my investigation i'll need you to charge it for time spent understood detective i slip past people like this then is that how this works [Music] let's roll around in here i see now i say here young man so he must be one of them uh how you say one of the proper proprietors of this you're fine establishment i do say okay look i know i'm tough to hold a smile for a whole painting that doesn't mean you shouldn't try do politicians ever try not to look like politicians you just start looking like that when you sign up hey there's a ghost [Music] maybe i should put my alpha back on i have like a ghostly punch combo oh no no you didn't yeah that's right [Music] got some ghost juice go this way case note checkpoint hey there buddy you have coloring unlike all of us this is a very big ghostly mansion like a thing ow go this way hello person yeah it's a little awkward i should have switched back before i came over here maybe we'll find one around here somewhere why this place is big oh crap not sure where i'm going but i'm going somewhere okay here we go i can switch here what does it matter man oh hey there man i can hardly see you in there detective what the hell is this place i grumble no particular direction trying to squint through the darkness this room seems by all appearances to be the source of the trouble no kidding there's nothing in here no ghosts no spectral manner no artic residue not even a common george spiritual murmur nothing allow me to get the lights you know jump scare me taking manhattan's footsteps approaching the back wall uh the powers that be seek a vessel for the darkness dark ambitions of mankind the powers that be seek a vessel for the darkest ambitions of mankind manheim when an elusive manhattan clears his throne like a wood chopper digesting a stone we should vomit shortly after the please visit it it raised supernatural suspicions i mean i guess i picked your pardon sir the one semitone raised in manheim's otherwise totally monotone voice tells me i caught him off guard it's just that we don't even start at least i'm just going to trust that he can help me being a little frank this is the dumbest thing i've ever seen in my life someone's playing a prank on you man i'm asking explain give him the common sense analysis so this is some kind of demonic resonance i'm assuming is that what you're thinking man i'm shrugged rarity looked at me and communicated i shrugged through his silence ghosts don't require blood demons do demon is implication so then why in god's name would demon die clean up after itself manheim interrupts for a moment i've never personally known a demon to be a fur cleaner mr spooky was that a joke was i expecting that huh what would it even get out of scaring someone or anyone it's a million miles away from a demon's best interest to be scary or at least scary in this extremely specific way and why is that so questions mine i'm talking as if he's beginning to suspect i'm spewing nonsense you know that the quickest way to get a person to start praying is manheim doesn't respond put a gun another head these brawns with short ah give me the inside knowledge little hand i am there's no reason for this thing to uh in your mind why is this all here i imagine you're the best person to go for today for that kind of information detective spooky okay be that way then first instincts man island or that this is a summoning he said there's no ritual here it's just a bunch of stuff a summon ritual is there to draw power of creatures toward a point in our dimension but this is just like a star and a picture of a person and you summoned me manheim you know what you had to do draw a very weird symbol and put in a really specific point above my summoning place then put a candlelit specifically with lithium chloride behind it manhattan drops his head to think for a moment he then nods his head well this is a star not even a pentagram with a silhouette above it that would mean there's a small chance of something every time someone drew a guy above a star that would be a lot of bored kids accidentally summoning demons with their notebooks manhattan is head not responding vocally amps gray i'm going to keep exploring thanks man ivana if manhattan interrupts me a little more hates than usual if you have to speculate as to understand this i'm going to stay with armistead cerny that's not a ghost such a problem it's either a demon or a prankster or both demonic pranksters oh ghosts and demons not the same thing detective spooky i was laboring under the assumption that they were the big difference is that a demon wants something from you man i'm whether it's your blood your word or your soul they're selfish creatures not to sigh look at this place would be funny that weren't so stupid and senseless i'm retired by this criminal or he's sick of him or her thank you so much detective spooky victor's fine just detective five away this allows me to leave all righty then punch whoa just gotta chill there's something in the next room it's been dangerous now knock your feet out [Music] okay on that one [Music] go oh whoops the first one that shines that means it's a i got hit by all the way down [Applause] [Music] they're likely on the damage before i get killed by a christian got her peacock i don't know why you're hunting this place or what you're doing but whatever man i hate hearing scream poor thing it'll be a piece sooner there's something to be said of regarding the cajones of the bastard springs demonic crap doesn't make me like him any better the peacock stuff give you some of its demonic energy pouring into me it's not a totally unpleasant feeling that doesn't make me feel completely wholesome either demons have this thing where they love to kill each other for power so the way it works is that the power finds his way to whoever murdered its last inhabitant this is some avian agility thing a big and double jump now that's definitely what this feels like if i press the jump button while airborne should be able to jump once more interesting should keep looking around this bird thing was a side effect that related to my case probably locked door swore didn't see that beyond the peacock before damn the door thing again we have to run and wait for that double jump will help there was some areas i couldn't get to before because uh well i couldn't double jump hey buddy punch what am i having a dash skill like a dash skill be really helpful [Music] okay whoa i said i want to change my outfit what's this oh something speaks you started me there's a figure in front of me it probably he but who knows in this line hasn't moved an inch i don't get the idea i stalled him my apologies the demon popped up no it's fine it's totally fine the man creature scratches his chin with his left hand i can't see his right hand he seems to be an amputee of some kind i knew cues afterward might be mistaken for a breath that eventually the proprietors of the house would send a problem solver maybe a policeman or a pest control guy would you happen to be that problem solver yep you the problem i am the thing red moves next to him that didn't catch my eye before turns to face me uh i don't think you should try to stop me his face is a gaping void somehow darker than the pitch black walls around him i'm given to the suspicion as to what he might be exactly i imagine you wouldn't want me to stop here it's not about want my friend have you considered what it would mean to stop me are you going to think about what kind of precedent that would set no but you should know that i don't play morality games of demons you and i both know it's a waste of time how do you know i'm a demon mister detective victor spooky and made it clear enough downstairs too clear frankly that whole song and dance was more confusing than anything okay fine the response of a huffiness voice like i've offended him somehow his tone shifts from moody to petty so quick it makes my neck ache since you're so smart if you know i'm a demon then you also know as well that i do that you can't kill me for i a small inhaling cell enters and exits the large swimming vortex in his skull i'm deathless he's gonna flare for dramatics i don't want to kill you i just want to stop you and go home shockingly naive perspective from someone who gets paid to find murderers i thought you know better you only think you don't want to kill me how would you know when you yourself haven't killed even one person for sport i wonder if you're not worried that you might enjoy yourself i have to roll my eyes well now that just sounds like something a psychopath would say sure victor you can go ahead and keep telling yourself that i probably will you know if you want last words so badly you can just ask for it last word god i hate to be you i tell him too what is presumably his face i've got to run unfortunately but we'll meet again soon victor we'll meet again he disappears into a black mist what an it's only called me my first thing that pissed me off goddammit isn't working i switched i feel like making that hole in this face a few inches deeper i've got to find out more before i make a move against this guy i better keep looking around hey look at that a key not a little key a phasma conceptual key the idea in permission is grabbed by a key the physical becomes the spiritual return to physicality again i should unlock a door of this sweet well i mean it's obviously gonna unlock the door behind the uh peacock all right unlocked let's go shortcut back or just complete new area [Music] looks like i see like a garden or something greenhouse you know what i mean slimes checkpoint [Music] okay nothing there ouch hey buddy don't do that i see wait that's not good don't mess with the eyes holy cow don't mess with those eyes why is the killer eyes [Music] got that for heels you give me a get behind something [Music] ouch ouch [Music] oh oh hey salazar i say just approach him as there's just someone i should even be the least bit comfortable around i can't help it i dove this type so often it feels like an old friend detective what are you doing down here i could ask the same question maybe a stupid question investigating this one a few places i'm allowed to investigate if i recall our earlier conversation correctly i suppose you've got your work cut out for you then my ears perk up not only at the implications that things up ahead may be more complicated than they currently appear then it sounds like salazar wants me to tell something wants to tell me something rather easy spooky i'll be teasing you go on we're missing a housemaid not teasing that's a shocker you someone who expressed as much contempt from you would love to dangle information on my head like a cat toy hell i was expecting it can you say missing the other made friday claims i've not seen all day after afura's search she's missing from the very every room except one then she's that one or taking a break outside the room is locked always has been but it turns out that the maid constance has been secreting it away all this time well we the staff would all be very surprised perhaps if you're in corporeality detective maybe i'll do investigate the room on him doesn't work that way ah he says clearly no need of or desire for an explanation what's the explanation issue that human constructs have an effect on the spiritual vampires of old can enter homeless invited and i cannot float through a wall that has been closed to me [Music] if the doors open or getting more complex here it was closed off to no one's desire like a cave and then i can flow through it so if someone even from a thousand years ago wants to keep me out they damn sure can regardless salazar i'm a little surprised when we investigate something being pretty clear upstairs how unwelcome i am as a man who is hired and paid to do things precisely as his employees instruct it's uncommon that i should hope to see the same out of you he's called me a bad employee i might get low offended by that one no no if my employers inspired me the non-veteran area i'm certainly have the dignity to tell me themselves or at least tell me what the chain of command is but right now i'm going to assume you're on top of that chain but i'll find out wrong you won't i'm certain if you don't mind of course detective [Music] uh hey there buddy well i can't go back we're in um sorry it's staring at me sit down at me on the edge from the angry breathing to the tense posture top his invalid legs this one is priming himself to attack me no doubt demon that's clear enough face shaped like a crescent moon eyes too broken never wasn't unusable legs laid breathing twitching fingers seeing multiple signs of having become a slave of sloth on layman's terms and then basilic demon not to be taken lightly though that maybe 10 seconds of best before he attacks there was some peaceful way on this i'm sure something would have hit me no choice but the cowboy up let's have a row [Music] that's all you do it kind of bounces as long as i stay over here i'm good i can even just like tank out hits [Music] you're almost done crack no likes are hard that last time you awesome right in the brain matter that you was reading more of a fight it's the only reason the crawdad whatever pity came from the money hot whole crescent moon faces a minion it's doing the violent bending of someone or something else that will whisper it but it wouldn't have found nerf over wise can you talk replies with the same back of the throat gurgling that's been coming from its keeping hands as we started fighting then begins to leave i'm more than okay with i scared it off anyway if i really want to completely do this thing add the wheel on a little more if it comes back though then we've got a real problem but for now i'm touching my pearls praying that i can investigate for five minutes without some goddamn nightmare trying to catch me on left foot just hoping yes i just brute force that fight i didn't look like it's too difficult if i had a second phase i was in trouble but i was just making the call like this is not a second phase game that could be wrong so health i needed that all right we're good [Music] you like nick me on the way out nothing a rake still let's handle apparently the wood comical mishaps but they have to worry about that really some wood nothing like my soul [Music] nothing small spade painting on some wood huh a pair of crutches not just enough to have not been used in the past couple of years who's using these perhaps at the elusive miss abernathy who barely claims it's sick but then why is she not using these right now is it worth asking around about got a clue no no no no no no no no no no [Music] there's some kind of like item there i feel like that gives me a major boost wow you guys came out of nowhere [Music] okay my alphabet we get around that eye i'm not sure what the item is but we got [Music] it excuse me everybody excuse me excuse me i'm just blitzing through the high road me key bats hmm is that pimple oh me [Music] oh not bombless pit anyway [Music] it's down here which area do i want to go in first [Music] demons over here too i need like fun like a checkpoint or something if i die [Music] oh hey easy victor hello it's miss bordeaux i've seen a slightly cheerier tone than my usual with this little anxiety it's good to spell as quickly as possible now dude that an anxious person is all in trouble with some such detective hello spooky's fine detective spooky how goes your investigation ups and downs you might not keep poking around do you she shuts up quickly i just can't tell where the line is with these kind of people detective i hope you understand that i'm not preventing you from seeing miss abernathy out malice real well never even occurred to me it's very important that you not bother her we can discuss this later miss bordeaux you prefer i would great what brings you down here down here right right this is the awkward house to become no one ever does until you show them i mean here to the greenhouse you know like how your house is my giant metroidvania maze just looking for moment of peace and quiet detective i hope that's not an issue with that valley's problem with me becomes clear miss bordeaux i'm not the police i can make you do anything that i can't make you do anything that you don't want to do if i ask you any questions and i would like you to very much just take to the house you won't be illegally obligated to answer any of them your face softens slightly we didn't tell her that what she needed to hear i put a fiver and having at least gone in close i'm sorry detective spooky this nonsense regarding the disappearances that put me on edge i could blame you she smells a lot of that her smile fades quickly she hardly switches to a worried and travered frown like it was a coach she had forgotten in the midst of a real winner detective any questions you have there are not regarding the lead of the house i would be willing to answer directions to the bathroom wouldn't go a mess and a quick stretch of genuine smile i never even fast returned a guarded house the only please silence winning on questions might as well lose your occupation what do you do for a living i used to be a wedding planner actually she can't keep the pride out of her voice if she says this it was a very successful one too now she played mr mrs abernathy's wedding we held it right outside the manor it was a pretty small get-together neither one of them has a lot of family to speak of but mr abernathy and sister and extravagance wherever he deemed appropriate multi-tiered cake both the abernathy's love carrot cake she kills her a bit regarding the winning i don't mind at all she's talking openly for the first time even tidbits like miss abernathy tried to talk mr aminati down from genuine super utensils but insisted have a hard time bombing went so sincere whatever valley is guilty of she's undeniably guilty of loving the art of winning planning more importantly he's speaking genuinely and leaking important information small families on both sides and allow contact to the world outside this corner and they've conquered themselves making winterfell manner remote not exactly a hub of activity i only interrupt valerie from a moment to ask about a pet that doesn't show up in the house before they came to nothing a straight cat that you bought july was taken care of that doesn't show up anymore eventually sooner than expected actually valerie's anxiety reasserts itself and she sets up like she's accidentally giving me nuclear launch codes you know the same thing strange about the house's geography let's go with constance disappears what do you know about constance the maid i don't know much i don't really talk to mates here jude always tells me there's no harm i didn't know them but i mean they're not my servants and i hate being waited on right where the consuls has gone missing i wasn't for how long long enough to be strange a few hours maybe not long enough to get worried over should i be worried detective i think you worry not 10 people miss bordeaux we'll find her don't stress yourself out about it she can take the crack as well as i was hoping didn't really focus half is all i get before she's done the question you know what's the house i got extremely miss bordell miss bordeaux mr dill right sorry um like the house itself no not really why wait is the house haunted i am a ghost she truly doesn't know us a thing i'm not going to freak her out about too much then possibly though i wouldn't have been on it everything here seems to have a perfectly logical explanation oh i've never been good of ghost stories um i just mean like scary stories no but thank you miss bordeaux i'm personally event i'm a good ghost story on occasion myself let me tell that when she goes back to room so brian took one or two experimental portals walk up several different upside down staircases number everything about a separate worst headache what good would that do you could live here how long are you staying miss bordeaux i suppose indefinitely would a living house guest be an appropriate moniker for your relation to the abernathies it would miss abernathy seems to like having me around and how would you describe living with the abernathies uneventful at least until recently referring to its appearances detective and we describe it as good bad i'd say good i don't feel it'd be right to complain about my circumstances miss abernathy likes having you run you said how about mr habenda or july rather i don't talk a lot actually he always offers that buddha dream mix for me he seems kind june july for what little time i spend together seem to be his happiest couple i've ever met notable junior aligning on good terms comes off strange to me i can think of three reasons why either the immediate hostility of the house made the news of a happy uncomplicated relationship seem odd in comparison they always lied to me and i caught her deception subconsciously or the confidence in which valley said this concentrated too harshly for usual welding subconsciousness no it's none of these no more thinking again just don't the irregularly then come back to us eyes on the prize spooky back to the conversation perfect thank you brooke could do my investigation miss bordeaux let me know there's anything else you detective i will she's more guarded than even the most naturally anxious people i've spoken to but she's less guarded than she was before i imagine we'll make that way until like you don't want to need anything from her like getting to move out of the damn ways and explore southwest wing really need that save point [Music] wow i'm fading fast [Music] here we go sweet oh my health increased okay so he's back this is a genuine problem and the most i probably did to him last time was waking him up a little bear cowboy up [Music] pick you up [Music] ow the tentacles actually make you more vulnerable in my opinion because just a number of chance for me like beat you up [Music] now stop this nazi and gurgle comes from somewhere inside his skull he has a skull i wasn't sure last time i felt it this time there's a round sitting in there too cause he's taking his time getting up but does eventually get off looks like it's going to be a little more cooperative now better make a demon signal in a hurry unless you want to summon something you didn't mean to or you want your arm locked off by a closing portal my personal apprentices have been in troublemakers enough to make them still long enough to let me do my work unless i miss my guess that day's look in his eyes tells me he could use a prank let me blame him no no damn at all no well supposed to miss my guests in not the end of the world could have gone far this isn't anything special that soft head of his is just taking a bigger bean than i expected to but yes i'd really better track him down now i don't think he tends to leave without a fight yeah you've taken over this area okay spooky i know his weird squishy skull is no fun to punch this time you really need to hey he's leaving well this is bad i really got cornish goddamn thing oh we left the key that's convenient watch my fingers that crescent moon faces behind the door this unlocks okay that was a little farther back so we'll have to go a little ways away but i remember that locked door just have to validate more joe calls onto this enter the room yes miss bordeaux well her how was your investigation in the wing of the house that's not what she meant to ask me fine i think i've almost got everything that i need we be needing to search the recreational wing of the house of course would you be so kind as to return tomorrow let's give me some time to speak to the lady of the house and confirm that she's feeling well enough to have well company i'm a ghost i can't come tomorrow i'm afraid i can't do that manheim impressed on me everyone they probably meant to the urgency of this investigation i'll be meeting everyone's cooperation in order to get to the bomb these disappearances detectives spooky her voice takes on new pleading tone her guard nature quickly gives way to what could be unterribly referred to as begging please understand your professional you got everyone's best interests at heart i understand and appreciate that but it's a personal favorite could you could you please come back tomorrow ah enough to not get my goat to be asked for a personal fever it's a matter of life or death regretfully i'll have to refuse my sincerest apologies miss bordeaux why what why why can't you come back tomorrow i you're right i should come back tomorrow another body might be the evidence i need to wrap this case up for good there's no need to be rude yes i have to be rude i am a ghost some in this place although you don't know that there's no reason for you to play stupid i've had an overwhelmed since the guy who did my job miss bordeaux that's not my idea of pleasant summer stain investigate a house that doesn't want me here you have to forgive me of being summoned to a house for the sole reason of investigating a potential murder spree only be told to not be too for about and offense my professional sensibilities detective i've only asked for a day's absence and something tells me you're not the one fronting the bill for me to be here so i'm gonna go ahead and take that with a grain of salt i've had too many easy cases lately i'm going soft elvis nuts gonna be cracked unless i start applying a little force she's staring shaking a little fine uh if that's i she sets up again she's not overly practice a sudden confrontation she doesn't say word she turns away from me to leave walking straight to the wall this house is so deeply corrupted i wouldn't be surprised if she was already far gone enough to start stealing walls yep there it is walking casually upwards probably still believing that she's walking down the greenhouse she's used to and she's gone okay i'm gonna lock that door oh would you look at that an actual demon summoning an abyssian summoning sigil four candles one unlit extremely specific locations a blood letter presuming the maid hung up in the ceiling corner he's probably still having blood stuffing oliver which explains how this little fella keeps growing more powerful thankfully he's sitting on top of his recall point there's no one teleporting away from this time duke's up crescent moon face last call for blood time for me to go home okay i'm down now i'm down now just keep wallowing on [Music] i said any every time it adds more attacks to its faces it's just more chances to wail on it [Music] plus the final hit of the punch goes upward so it just takes out those missiles i think he's going to stay still this time no never minds evil i don't get it's a teleportation there shouldn't be anything painful about it and yet every time i send a demon home they'd ride and scream if they're capable and act like they're in great pain the only explanation i can think of is that they're faking it that's it i sometimes get a little numb teleporting somewhere it never hurts the crescent moon face is doing it like all the others whatever kind of pain he's in he sure isn't a lot of it the day is saved are you hanging in there constance fine i know that i've had a moment to catch my breath just about blood i give up on getting any work done today perhaps i shall normally put up a fight i'm just sure of it for whatever reason though i find myself ill-equipped to disagree for whatever reason she says thank you ever so much for saving me detective again you can stop thinking me constance i'm just glad you're okay i found myself overcome with gratitude though you asked that i should simply ignore these intense feelings and pray they leave on their own i'm unless you understand that i'm only doing my job constance at the end of the day i'm getting paid for this regardless you saved my life thank you this woman is being extremely kind regardless she's a handful clearly has a lot to say i'm sure she's a different lady when you haven't just saved her life a grateful voice is nice to hear though just let me know there's anything i can do to repay you there is we let me know the moment you're feeling up to answering some questions i'm ready right now constance i don't argue detective i prefer the story to me and lay you know what i'll take it what do you remember about the attack consonants i understand you must be feeling none of that detective none of that you saved my life the least i could do is answer your questions you're too kind would you recall the past couple hours what do you recall rapper i've been trying to answer that same question since i came too i'm afraid that the answer won't be very gratifying or helpful regardless i was cleaning here in the greenhouse this room a different room i believe i was wiping down the orchid planners if it's all relevant it isn't the last thing i want constants to do right now is skim on the details my mind was serenely blank canvas i was as focused on my job as i am on my best days just my luck that something would go so dreadfully wrong i remember that i was frozen with terror before i understood what was happening to me a pair of hands gripped me by my shoulders from behind the two hands were so different though as if belonging to two separate but equally terrifying men go on my right shoulder a firm unfuelling cold grip that locks around my bones the same way manacle might on my left shoulder a human grip but cold and clammy thin the faintest heartbeat sickly but strong they moved with synchronicity i suppose you would call it and i then felt as though i were dragged into slumber i had horrid dreams none that i can remember too well the dreams are never ever helpful if you could attempt to forget whatever dreams you had during that time you'd probably be better off i concur and after that and well you were there for the rest of it detective spooky got it thanks notice anything else strange we notice anything different about the house at any point recently other than the changes to this room yeah besides the don't name it yeah besides that i suppose not if i notice anything detective i'll be sure to contact you as soon as possible would you of course perfect you won't notice unless i point it out constance i mean it seems as though you've got decent birds out of you the manners are made and a hard-working one is that detective agreed the ghosts come fill if she were able to clean up the filth around her faster than the ghost can reduce it she would be the first what are your impressions on winterfield manor it's inhabitants it's general dynamic disagreeable disagreement you're the first to tell me that of course i am detective i'm the only one who's seeing things as they are this is pertaining to the residents or to the staff both both the staff sort of lacks a sense of unity i tried my best to rally troops as when my say but my ever made missed foster and whom i must depend until i convinced miss abernathy to her additional help seize herself above strict regiment and hard discipline it's a disgrace salazar is a hard worker yes but he has bedside manner adequate of a fishmonger with a cold edward mai he would be a great butler if he went so solitary 10th of july with openness since hospitality for the rest of us residents and staff alike have trouble fighting him most of the time tell me about the residence well simply put it's time to get down to brass attacks regarding miss valerie bordeaux wait wait wait wait brass tacks i shouldn't gossip but mr abernathy believes valerie bordeaux to be a bad influence of miss abernathy however the lady of the house prefers having her around i find that the two may be avoiding an argument about it but argument may be the best thing to have instead of this terrible sense of unfinished business that seems to surround the young miss bordeaux if anything particular against mrs bordeaux she's no social butterfly but i'm not the slightest reason to dislike her i only wish the best for the house it's miss abernathy that seems to have negative impressions in miss bordeaux fascinating the moose constance thank you think nothing of a detective and come find me if there's anything else i can answer for you i will well now what demon's gone [Music] quick weapons we happen to know whose crutches those are in the other room i'm sorry no no idea none that's suspicion that they might have been missed above it miss abernathy's madly imply that she may be sick i'm not sure why miss bordeaux would say such a detective miss abbott nappies in perfect health no kidding valley won't allow me to pass the southwest wing of speaker perhaps the leader of the house certainly doesn't want to speak to the help at the moment detective miss bordeaux is making excuses for her i could hardly imagine why not without what they're paying for my time as with me detective don't mind don't let me stop you i haven't talked to you yet hello there that may create me in the darkness hey there uh can we get the lights in here suppose price it gets in here blasting their heat lamps the old wiring here turn on one light and never goes off gotcha it's detected victor spooky let me ask a few questions miss friday foster pleasure what can i help you with her voice is sweden aaron jack a little more open afford than most maids her helpful wolf practice tone reminds me of susie's back home nice to meet you friday so you're made here i asked her not merely noticing my redundancy response no i just wear the outfit for fun while i clean thankfully the owners paid me for it how long have you been made here miss foster rise perfect sideways for a moment and come back recalling time that you've got the mark it must be about two or three years now and friday is fine just be at least mildly familiar with the house as residents by now right arise from sideways for another moment to see the nonce great i just have a few more questions for you you might tell me about valley bordeaux i believe it was her brow drops a little bit none of the implied disagreements toward valley but not the implies shaky situation oh oh yes sure i'll tell you whatever i can any pers she's a little jumpy huh valerie she seems maybe a little friday's eyes perk up a little bit to catch the falling into my sentence yeah i guess she's kind of on edge erotic i guess this is i say say the word normal for her then she's jumpier than normal i've noticed it too so has everyone else including june i think great good to know thank you what's relationship involving the owners so valerie is she a relative or a gaze for a moment no she might she's not a relative i don't think i think she just might just be a friend of jones what's her relationship to july abernathy i've never seen them in the same room together i don't think i'm not positive they have a relationship in fact i don't know for cern if he's aware she lives here i mean they try to have breakfast and dinner together june july but july is a really busy guy i'm not sure he would have noticed this catches my attention so she does like her that oh yeah definitely she's always in the house often she's with june sometimes she's not she sleeps in one of the guest rooms confirmation this makes things interesting valerie's easily here enough to be just as much as suspect as anyone else ghost included her perfect thanks for the info friday any personal opinions oh i don't have any i wish she would act like she lives here more and ask her stuff directly she has june tell me stuff on her behalf a lot this gives me pause for fun i wonder if she's a living guest my valley wouldn't step up to a plane and act like a resident here well she doesn't like to talk about her living situation to me or anyone i don't think maybe she came from somewhere bad before maybe she's afraid of overstaying a welcome who knows what if it's like one of those silly things where it's just the same person and she's just like switching outfits like i'm a different person i'm valerie not the the head of the household owners but you might tell me more about the owners during july certainly we need to know what they like generally as far as you're aware at least it's a telling gesture that she makes looking upward and reaching for a thought i can only imagine the owners don't cross her mind very often at least not as individuals she knows but rather is simply her absentee employers i don't know they're nice i guess nothing wrong with them they pay me on time unatrociousness perhaps they'll suspect them all the calm status quo in this house that everyone's fine with the same status quotes resulted in the disappearance of two people maybe more tell me about their health i spoke to what's her name valerie bordeaux earlier she oftenly mentioned something about june mavernathyself are you aware of any illness she may have contracted hmm she's careful about her words she seems to rely on vocal affirmation before saying anything concrete no i've not heard anything detective sorry i wouldn't know if jun's sick at all though i hope she's not i know it slowly i suddenly mull over the idea that perhaps june is sick but secretive about hmm all right good to know any personal opinions you have any strong opinions regarding the abernathy's just you know personal thoughts or not really i don't see them all that much also don't know don't do much work in areas where july is i know june bear though what's your opinion on june then she's fine i always get the feeling that she's ruder to the other people than she is to me great where's the staff there's myself manheim salazar in constance you're talking about asking about specifically [Music] i spoke with the manheim he's interesting guy do you know him oh yeah i think about manheim what do you want to know wow it seems like he's hiding something we describe manheim as a secretive kind of guy do you think he's up to something this one takes her a second she's really mulling it over not nothing i know of i can kind of see why you would think so but i couldn't imagine he's hiding anything good thanks for your input man i might generally pretty boxer and butler of all things concern right i asked expecting she will confirm and correct me i suppose he's always been really kind to me he probably comes off as cold to a lot of people though but i mean that's his job i don't blame him gold is actually the last word i used to describe my experience at manhattan so far he's rigid but i can't help but feel as though he's far too close to the problem on her hands it's worth noting how friday how highly friday thinks of him great thanks personal opinions well i guess he really said to your left i mean everyone seems to like him so that's nothing surprising that's so hmm okay thanks salazar the seller's our guy i'm not spoken to him yet tell me about him her expression darkest notably uh can we everything okay friday she speaks up after a pronounced moment of silence could not talk about salazar we've never really gone along but i have a thing about talking bad behind people's backs he always returns in a bad way for sure yeah i don't think that he likes me much if it means anything that's helpful thank you it is helpful i'm not screwing she may have said something useful now talking about their experiences but it's a good thing i'm not the only fellow that she treats that way constance haven't met constance yet another housekeeper her eyebrows raised but her expression doesn't seem to brine at all she's ever been waiting for or dreading talking about whatever she's about to talk about yes let's talk about her briefly i'm currently assuming she's another housekeeper friday excels are the size tinge of frustration this constant ladies already speak up to be some kind of character yeah she's i never made we have rotating duties i don't respond to that verbally it's unhelpful i'd like to move on to the next question i don't seem to talk about her feels like you're excited to talk about her friday should i be worried well she's choosing her words especially carefully now kosta is a little hard to work with sometimes i'll not be surprised to learn that she doesn't end up cooperating with you friday says is much quieter than she was before as if she were speaking some grave insult to this constant lady would be shocked to hear if friday's right then friday wouldn't be the first person constantly with your criticism from i'll keep that mind then thanks opinions and constance what do you think of constance personally i well um he starts to stop like an old motor tough question i don't think she'd be surprised if she heard me say i am not overly fond of her i hate to talk behind people's backs but this isn't exactly a secret understood i appreciate your candor i'll be all for now friday thanks you so much she perks up and gives me a week before suddenly returning to her cleaning okay we got some more clues there i don't know what the clues are for if they come up later or not we'll see [Music] detective birdness lines her voice like she's had time to rehearse her lines and remind herself she's right to be pissed off he took her out of the way i don't think i've got enough hell on things to make her bunch this can require long talking to so give it a try anyway yes let's have it out then i i see all the stuff we got this for you seem on edge my friend is terribly ill detective i'm sure you can understand my discomfort undoubtedly would you mind if i swing a few questions your way you know because i've got you here ask away detective i'll answer whatever i'm at liberty to discuss i know we both got nothing but time dandy so one more time for the record june abernathy's under the weber without question what's the doctor's diagnosis none yet we live in a pretty remote area mr spooky it's going to take some time for a doctor to fit us all in for a house call that and it hasn't been that much time since she's come down with her sickness a little extra time to rest and receive a diagnosis would be this is what the doctor ordered yeah thanks you know a power play when you see one victor don't engage around this point no matter how infuriating it is miss bordeaux let's discuss this sickness what are our symptoms now let me discuss them do i throat runny nose fever headache off remember let me discuss her symptoms detective damn she knows what trap looks like unless she says the bear for her i don't love that she recognizes that she's being evasive let's get to the point let's depend on something she can't wiggle away out of yeah so okay it makes sense now why we've been collecting notes here she's not sick and salazar says that's it valerie let's talk i've been hearing rumors from the staff do you hold frivolous rumors from the clean crew as a high priority detective oh she should have not said that that was a slip up i can use i do in fact miss bordeaux information is my business and the staff here are just as much people as you or i or do you disagree no i agree of course i was only seeing them close of june i would hope that you take me on my word when i regardless of your opinion of the working class miss bordeaux it's come to my attention that there are some who believe june abernathy he'd be in perfect health mr spooky i was only implying that direct reports on both one friday foster and one salazar pereira but june seemingly fit as a fiddle or should i disregard what they have to say yes you should you uh i mean no not because you're the staff but that's not what i mean i keep my traps shut never interrupt your opponent when you hear shoes make a mistake no instead of spooky listen to me i continue to catch your gaze i had nothing against the staff that would you believe i was implying this bordeaux june and i are close friends and she's the only reason i'm not on the street i sympathize with the stuffed gravy i do sympathy huh miss bordeaux we're working pretty normal jobs or just people i don't know why you have so much trouble getting that easy spooky you were playing your hand because you got your goat eyes on the prize stupid detective you're being unremarkably unkind i think it's pretty unfair that you'd like rumors spread by our busy employees out with the word of her friend i went to the one that says she's a picture of elf i understand that detective but while the staff was busy doing their jobs i was tending to her it's absurd that i should even be feeling these obvious falsehoods let me through so i can see her at least let me prove i can keep investigating it i will not detective so there i understand all right miss bordeaux my sincerest apologies for being so rude as you may understand this is a matter of life and death understand when you've got stand up to a friend especially when they're sick as soon abernathy must be i know a good friend when i see one i wait what i'm sorry to have upset you miss bordeaux truly oh it's it's quite a right detective spooky i understand you're only doing your job thank you miss bordeaux i'm very grateful you because you would be cooperative despite my manners it's no problem detective and valerie's fine okay fine she wants to corner herself in a hole and it's just someone to lie or be it for me to stop her dude is probably totally fine but assuming she's sick is how we're gonna play this i can use it i put my cards right and valerie just handed me the rose i'm going to hang her from figuratively speaking of course on to my next question mr uh valerie 26 summoning it valerie you said there have been strange happenings in winterfell is late i do be aware of an attempt at something in the basement no i wasn't it's not pretty it appears to be bloodstains and extremely cryptic dangerous messaging i know damn well that's pup kiss summoning the question is do i tell her that do i play off the fact that it was clearly a spoof by an unwelcome guest but i use their demonic implications to her offer god they always someone very stupid estimated to scare the houseguests you argue like spooked easily between your assistant demons summoning valley someone's trying to summon a demon this location you're kidding right i'm not it's definitely serious i'll just leave someone here it'd be just as easy if not either someone something very dangerous oh oh oh no that that is bad yes is there how can i help or is there is there any question i can answer regarding the summoning the kind of anxious don't you like to ask what does have to do with me that's definitely the idea well valerie and there are a number of strange things going on here if someone's assuming to let's say change the ecosystem of the house something overwise i would naturally question everyone's motives and i'm having a hard time believing that june abernathy's recent illness isn't somehow connected wait connected to the summoning yes during what the story is downstairs someone's not acting in good faith if june's sick it's very very likely that it's someone's fault [Music] didn't like that at all give any evidence that it could point us to a possible perpetrator the question was distinctly not given a such sex he knows i suspect her within the frame of return sickness though i release up here right now is lying i do a scrap of evidence anything even a character witness that points to the valley's direction might be enough to give our damn heart attack right about now and i think i know exactly what to use i'll play bad influence that's it speaking of demons something's valerie constant told me there's been a friction between you and july abernathy men of the house then one day someone sums a demon downstairs and junior's deathly hell valley bordeaux what are you doing with june abernathy me no it never it's not like that you left me no choice but assume the worst valerie because now i pass you're at least responsible trying to submit a teamwork in winterfell but worst actually at best most likely she's just lying to me this is what happened to me leave under alive now no i'm not posting tuned not something a demon i'm not say it would mention poisoning things are piling up val i've been hired to clean up your mess say it no detective you've got it's not say it it's not what it looks like i swear bingo i think it's exactly what it looks like valerie especially after hearing that you're only working by one half of the household it's not july's not he and i are fine not you no not perfect but i okay okay i'm sorry i lied to you but june she didn't want to be bothering she was depending on me to keep her away they're pretty long links to give everybody some peace and quiet she's sick detective it's just not it's not what you think it is it's a point should not be bothered not as important as my making sure you're not hiring a body hiding a body about you valerie step aside [Music] fine find out i'll move she steps aside with infuriating slowness and i am finally giving access to the southwestern wing of winterfield banner for every potent and heavy wreaks of annoyance and defeat i almost feel bad for that's over with thank you so much playing deep knight detective chapter one if you'd like to support the game forever be sure to review your honest thoughts i guess that's it so that's it for deep knight detective episode one uh i think it's also maybe it's like a kind of a demo it's not like a little first episode i would say the game is pretty good it has some like i would say like polishing flaws i'm not sure it was just me maybe it's a buck okay but i did notice there was a little bit of lacking on the say like feedback of sounds so like the hits or enemies aren't too satisfying sitting with like the bosses like there's there's not like sound effects in this game so far i think so that's like more of a polishing thing mechanically it's fine i'm curious if we'll get more attacks now than just punching if we'll get like spells or tools or little weapons so we're not just um hopping and floating and just punching something in there boss design wise it's fine it's early in the game so they're relatively easy i'm not too surprised by that and i do similar question the metroidvania part i see the skeleton of a metroidvania there but it's going to be episodic for one so i'm not sure like you saves carry over do we revisit areas because as it is we don't necessarily revisit areas it looks like looks like we'll be done with the new area so right now i think it's more of a platformer like a little platforming action game with a detective visual novel aspect on the side so that's why i kind of mean like it seems like it's gonna be a pretty good game it's got the skeleton of it anyway it just needs like refinement polishing spots to to kind of bring out the potential that's there because it doesn't matter if you have like a nice stone if you don't polish it it's not going to shine you know what i mean but yeah it's an interesting mix of genres that kind of works and when the difficulty in the depth has been increased i feel like it'll kind of bring the synergy out better anyway so thank you all for watching play deep night detective episode one i'll see you guys later and take it easy you
