I can't pass Toriel idk why 😪
NO ONE TOLD ME CHAPTER 2 WAS OUT
It took me WAY TOO LONG to finally win against Dogressa man those dogs humbled me so bad lmao 😭 amazing game as usual tho. It was worth all my tears to get past the card game
I really wanna join the discord but the link is expired is there any other way I can join? :(
I gave the Snowman the carrot, but it doesn't say I received the candy... Am I missing something or do you get it, and it doesn't tell you? ALSO, where is the second dog treat :(
The snowman? You get the candy near the end of the Chapter
The dog treat? Go to INN first -> put the blanket on the bunny. Then go to SHOP -> Violet gives ya freebie to choose from her shop = choose dog treat 👍
In the fights there are times when it will show to different music notes I need to press, is this a glitch or if it is not a glitch is there any particular order/way I need to press the notes?
Like a second row note appearing after the first row? After the first row has already been pressed, you don't need to do the first row again when the second row appears
Unless you mean after the note you pressed, it switches to another one you need to press? Then no there's no particular order you need to do, just make sure you pay attention to what note comes next after so you know what to press next.
How do I get to the next chapter?? I passed all the battles with a flawless grade, smelled like vanilla, got all the candies, and ate Papyrus's spaghetti. What am I doing wrong?? 😭
How do you smell like vanilla?
When you are exploring Toriel's house you gotta enter the bathroom repeatedly until it tells you that you smell like vanilla. After that, you wont have the option to go back to the bathroom. :)
the 3rd chapter isn’t available yet
Thanks :D
Okay I didn't check the songs when I went to play chapter two. So Papyrus having El Tango Del Roxanne caught me off guard and I fucked up cause I was more focused on singing the song than I was to the fight. But oml that would've been an amazing soulmate song- You go to fight him, "WHY DOES MY HEART CRY!? FEELINGS I CAN'T FIGHT. You're free to leave me, but just don't deceive me. And please, believe me when I say I love you."
does anyone know how to get all the candies? i'm able to get the ones from the snowman and playing the game with the dogs but i've just been missing one last one! ^^
you have to go back to the bathroom repeatedly to smell like vanilla, and then knock on the door that you could normally knock on a billion times.
thank you sm!!
how do i get past papyrus😢
what is that puzzle, im normally good at those grid puzzles but i dont know where north, south, west, and east are. where am i facing??
I thought this too lol but really you're thinking too hard on it. Ignore the nesw and look at the up, down, right, left. If you want the character to go up, you choose up. And it's from YOUR (The players) Perspective. Not the character in the game. So again, if you want your MC to move down from where you know they are, you choose down. If you need help, i can tell you how to get past.
i spammed the buttons and got past but didn't understand it anyway
does anyone know how to get past l.d (lesser dog)?
for the normal notes, hit them once; for the orange notes, hit them twice!
Thank you!!
i can't continue, i'm stuck with toriel and i have no idea why??? try clicking fast, missed a little but still not passing :'(( helppp
when there are two notes on the page, it just wants you to click one. the note above is the one you already clicked. hope this helps
oh my goodness!!! you are a gracious saviorrr!!! thank you so muchhhh!!! finally passed the dance battle <3333
I cant get to the other chapters and it always says i smell of nothing how do i change that
Never mind on the smell thing but i still cant progress and i saw that Darkpetal16 said their are other chapters has anybody found them?
I'm desperately trying to figure this out, too 😭
It's in Toriel house, go to the bathroom (Be sure to check all of the thing you can press) and go in and go out a bunch of time until it tells you that you now smell like vanilla, hope this help you
I can't get pass toriel and the link for discord is not working. can there be a video of it for help pls and thank you
when there are two notes on the page, it just wants you to click one. the note above is the one you already clicked. hope this helps
I don’t think the discord link works but how the heck do the battles work on mobile I need help lol
I got a flawless fight with Toriel on the second try 👹
didn't understand the mechanics of the fight, but as soon as i realized that the 2 parts weren't separate from the singulars (i know i worded that weird lol) i got flawless on my first attempt (of knowing how to actually do it that is)! other than that, this is amazing and i love it so much!
Is it only one chapter or is there a secret second one that I can find TvT
Will goatdad be a romance route in any future AU games? (I do love the usual available characters, just curious)
I'm so happy you made another game! It's practically perfect, I love it already. I did notice some bugs though like the locket is always in the nightstand even when you already took it or that when in the scene where you can pick your prosthetic color it seems to only acknowledge the right leg even when you have both prosthetic legs. And when it talks about the ballet shoes it only talks about the left one.
I really like the game though, it's cute!
There's also this one which doesn't have a passage
Toriel was hard to beatttt T^T also good to see you back, Darkpetal! I found your games a few months ago and have been loving the storylines ever since, hope you have the best luck ever this year! edit: I GOT FLAWLESS ON TORIEL FINALLY!!
So excited to see you back!
Wb, love your new story and plz mafiafell I'm addicted 😭❤️😍.
there is a scene in a memory where I can't proceed because every time I tap the blue text the music menu comes up. I also tried to change the font size luke I saw in a comment but it didn't work. Does anyone have any advice?
OMG I figured out the battle mechanic!!! I tried what others said and I either did okay enough to pass through or failed so bad Tori yeeted me through the mirror. But clicking the first note BEFORE the second one would appear got me a flawless. You DO have to hit both notes, you just have to make sure you hit the first one before the second shows up.
huh?? can you please explain i keep trying to beat her bbut she keeps saying im doing something wrong
Honestly it's just clicking the right note fast. You have to click the correct first note before the second one pops up whatsoever. Then click the correct one there. If the secondary one shows up before you click the first one, you missed the window to do so and it's missed and/or incorrect. Don't let the second note appear after the first without clicking the corresponding correct note to the first that appeared.
Helpful tip if using keyboard and mouse, move off the notes between clicking. I ended up messing one try up by a single note cause it thought I was still on the top row note instead of the second row note.
huh, well then it might be a problem with my mouse then because i swear i clicked everything right. If only i could confirm if i pressed a button or not
Dance your way to victory. . . or face a fate worse than death. - When it said that i almost thought the end bit would be ' Or take a dance with death.' lolol
if you died that wouldn’t be so bad, but it’s instead forcing you into an ✨awkward ✨ ending and according to discord that’s worse than death.
YOU'RE BACK?!?!? Omg i thought you were gone... btw mafiafell is dead in a ditch plz update😭
dead in the ditch like your patience? 😭
I already love this game, the only confusing part was the battle but otherwise it's amazing
thank you!! It felt nice to switch up the battle mechanics.
and you did really well! I really hope this type of style continues (no pressure though) and I also love the detail to the ballet attire options, as someone that has once done ballet I appreciate this <3
Hope to romance all skeletons 🙏🙏🙏
it’s for their own good. 🙏🙏🙏
:O NEW AUUUU
Y E S XD
welcome back! I’m hoping your days have been well, and that you and your family is happy and healthy! P.S- thank you for delivering another beautiful game 😊
thanks!! This has been fun to work on in discord, happy to finally post.
And thank you especially for your kind regards re family. I hope the same to yours.
I didn't expect this the first thing I see today but omg it's made my day! :3
I didn’t expect the hyperfixation to chokehold me like it did but here we are, what a time to be alive. (: Hope you had fun with the first release.
I’ve tried what other comments have said with the Toriel Boss fight,but it doesn’t seem to work, what am I doing wrong? I feel like I’ve tried everything
There’s a video tutorial in discord in the #walkthroughs channel.

I was so Happy when i found this game today.
I love your games really
Is chapter 1 the only one out so far?
no, the other chapters are just really good at hide n seek /t
How do I find them tho
Did you find out? Plz help😭
no I have not
Ah, I love getting attacked by notifications for your new games.
You probably don't know it, but you made our day a few times more than we expect you would with your games. And I like it!
I am really enjoying the game and world so far. (Been slowly devouring your games library over the past week) However, I am having a lot of trouble progressing past the Toriel fight. I'm pressing the buttons as instructed but I keep losing and I am unsure what I am doing wrong. If anyone has any advice, please share ;-;
Im havjng the same problem
Maybe try only pressing once and wait for the top note to change. And sometimes double notes appear.
Whenbit shows 2 buttons. You dont have to do the one on top, just the bottom one
Only click the bottom note when two show at the same time? Thank you, I was wondering what I was doing wrong since I did press each button once like the instructions said.
I did what you said and it worked! I got a flawless too ^^ Thank you for your help. I had no idea when two showed up you only had to hit for the bottom one.
how??? I still keep getting the ones with flaws 😭
so here's what I learned playing it from the first and second time. first time while waiting I did as instructed, but there were times when hitting the button to show you which one to hit a second one would show up. didn't really think it was correct and maybe a mistake. HOWEVER second time I did instructed, followed note, hit the exact button but after that I went and clicked on the button to see if a second note would appear [idk if it shows it automatically or you have to press it in order to revealed]. my first play got me passable but the second time with checking for those second notes got me flawless. hope that helps and is understandable ftg
What did you click to show the second note? Cause when I tried to click or wait for the second note, Tori yeeted me through the mirror. When I clicked both notes, I got a passable.

Hi. Im having trouble clicking on the blue text on the bottom to continue because whenever I do the music selection button keeps coming up
You can try changing your font size in the menu. That helped me.
Thank you :)
You're welcome.
