A downloadable game for Windows

Mind Her Manor is an action-adventure with management elements. Young Henrietta finds herself as the newest prisoner to be taken into the manor of Fay Shadowrend, the Matriarch of Witches. Fate seems to smile upon her as she is released from her cold cell, selected to do Fay's bidding. Free to wander the manor, Henrietta must find a way to escape Fay's clutches as she keeps her satisfied. She must hurry, however, as she has limited time to find a way out! Henrietta will encounter numerous characters, ferocious enemies, and perplexing puzzles as she works for her life!

Mind Her Manor is the first project of Mindbridge Games, consisting mainly of two developers, and is made on GameMaker. It features anthropomorphic animals as its characters and a high fantasy medieval setting. Its gameplay is inspired by Zelda, Dead Rising, Secret of Mana, and Resident Evil.

Game Features (as of demo):

  • A top-down perspective with 8-directional movement, both keyboard/mouse and controller support! (analog movement available on controllers)
  • Explore a lavish medieval manor as you accomplish Fay's tasks. Manage your time wisely!
  • Plentiful randomization including random loot and periodic enemy spawns.
  • Copious puzzles to help ease your journey or offer the keys to freedom!
  • A set of four weapons to help defend against the monsters of the manor. Build your charge bar and release powerful charge attacks!
  • A terrifying creature of the night that persists across rooms...
  • Brew an array of potent potions from monster parts and acquire temporary buffs of all kinds!
  • Cutscenes featuring full body pictures of speaking characters!
  • A bevy of curious items to help you in your quest.
  • Maintain your weapons and other gear.
  • An original soundtrack, most tracks composed by Anna Maria Olsson.

Demo Notes:

The game is currently in a beta state, with a demo curated to take up a certain type of gameplay not reminiscent of the final product's end goal. In the demo, the goal is to survive as long as possible, with tasks becoming more numerous each day. Survive past 7 challenging days and be presented with some fun secrets to seek out!

FAQ:

Q: How do I select things in the title screen?

A: Press "F" for basic confirmation.

Q: Is there fetish/NSFW content?

A: This game is SFW, and the player being eaten by a number of enemies on death can probably be construed as fetish content.

Q: Will there be a (X) port?

A: Ports may occur later in the game's development, most likely after full release. Ports can be expensive and/or time-consuming, and we need to see that it's worth doing before committing.

Love the game so far, only problem is a very consistent crashing problem when trying to turn in tasks. Oddly enough saving, experiencing the crash, and then reloading the game will prevent the crash from happening for a little while. But by the time I'm ready to turn in the next batch of tasks I have to save again and have the game crash before I can turn in.

Please download the latest version which should fix this.

Are there plans to translate the game into another language?

Localization is being considered. It would cost a good amount, so we're trying to figure out how to fit it into our budget.

Basic control explanation definitely needed, I can't seem to get the main menu to even accept any inputs and I've tried nearly every key. There seems to be no default "select" button. 

"F" is the basic activation key.
