About This Game Five years after the original Ludum Dare game and over 3 & a half years since the Steam release, Close Your Eyes returns for its 5-year anniversary with a complete remake. The remake has been redone from the ground up, capturing the ominous feel of the original but with a ton of brand new content, an updated look, various alterations and additions, and a plethora of bonus modes and goodies.Close Your Eyes -Anniversary Remake- includes:Close Your Eyes: The uprising cult hit about an adorable murderer bound by their past, brought into question by a strange game show host, returns in a brand new way! Completely remade from the ground up, it includes new locations, brand new threats, extended story, 10 possible endings, and a delve into an atmospheric abyss that may linger with you long after you beat it.Girl's Graveyard: The predecessor to Close Your Eyes has also been remade and included! The maddening arcade-styled game about a girl collecting candy for her beloved includes new scenes and greater darker depths. There may be more than sweet things to find behind the facade...Close Your Eyes - Beneath the Surface: A brand new scenario where Marshmallow Monk must dig deep to find a hidden truth... Explore a strange explorable urban setting for a chilling experience that may leave you sinking into the murkiness of an unseen horror.Close Your Eyes Anniversary Mode: A brand new mode which remixes Close Your Eyes with even more new scenes, challenges, and an extended story. Unlike the main game, there's only one ending to achieve in Anniversary Mode, but the route to that ending is unlike anything you've experienced before.Girl's Graveyard Challenge Mode: Are you a masochist? Taking place after the events of Girl's Graveyard as a sequel of sorts, Challenge Mode is not for the weak of heart. Can you overcome all odds and reach the shocking finale?Three Other Bonus Modes: There's even more to experience between three bonus shorter modes to unlock, "The Twisted Puzzle", "Hushed Hour" and "A Ghastly Tale".Unlock the Secrets of the Annex: As you make progress in all of the game modes, you will begin to unlock more content in a new hub world known as the Annex. The Annex holds many secrets...You're a murderer, we all know it, but do you think you are? 7aa9394dea Title: Close Your Eyes -Anniversary Remake-Genre: Adventure, Indie, Early AccessDeveloper:Yai GameworksPublisher:Yai GameworksFranchise:Close Your EyesRelease Date: 21 Dec, 2018 Close Your Eyes -Anniversary Remake- Activation Code [Xforce Keygen] close your eyes anniversary remake If you're on mac, its definitely not something to look into.

I would definitely recommend this to anyone looking for a good indie horror game!. I have never actually written a game review before, but I am willing to give it a shot if it means more people get to experience this game. I feel like this game serves as a great introduction into the Yai Gameworks games, or into RPG horror games in general. Nothing is too intense that the game can't be beaten (except maybe Girl's Graveyard, which was super rough but an equal amount challenging) and many of the game's scares are psychological and rely on building the right atmosphere, as opposed to cheap jumpscares for the sake of cheap jumpscares. The story is engaging and surreal, making it an interesting game to play and formulate your own theories for afterwards. The gameplay itself is a nice mix between exploration and puzzles and it rotates between them enough to keep your play through interesting.When comparing this to the original, I am extremely excited for the new content yet to be released. This was my first time playing Girl's Graveyard, but I have played through the original Close Your Eyes before the remake's release. I enjoyed the improved sprites and visuals, like the glowing eye on dialogue boxes instead of the default RPG Maker arrow and the personalized colors for each character's dialogue. The orginal music is great as always, and some of the added sound effects were a great touch, such as the piano note when saving (which I believe is new compared to the original). If I could suggest a change, I think it would be interesting if instead of having all of the songs unlocked in the Annex at once, have them gradually unlockable when the player completes a specific task or as they appear in-game.Overall, it's a great game that's worth the price, and I am eagerly awaiting the content yet to come..

Yai Gameworks: First Five Years Music Album released: [yaigameworks.bandcamp.com]I've released a 320-song Album for music from all of my games over the last 5-years.[yaigameworks.bandcamp.com]The full album of 320 songs is available there in the link above if you click it, music from my last 5 years of game making. Can listen to it freely, though I do highly appreciate support if you decide to buy the whole album for $8 USD (or can buy individual songs for $0.50 USD).This album is a collection of the entire original soundtrack for the games I released during my first five years of making games (between 2013 - 2018). It includes the original and able-to-distribute music for Blank Slate (original Ludum Dare version), Girl's Graveyard, Close Your Eyes [Original Version], Take the Dream IX, Red Haze, Cootie Patootie [Original Version], Close Me, Please Love My Computer Game, Found Horror Game 11.exe, and Dusk Golem's Red Haze of Horror 3D, as well as some scrapped songs. This does not include outside tracks as that would've needed me to re-license everything again, and decided to keep this to the original songs by myself (and a few by friends I have been given complete permission for free reign over). All come in .mp3 format. I hope to keep surprising with all that I do. The money earned from this is going right back into future projects.. Version 0.11 now available: Version 0.11 now is available. This is an accumulation of small bug fixes and typo corrections since Early Access launch, as well as an additional 5-10 minutes added to Close Your Eyes -Anniversary Remake- after the last stopping point, marking the beginning of the Judith Manor section of the game.There is too much to name of what's been fixed, but a few of the most notable changes:-First small bit of Judith Manor in the Close Your Eyes remake is now available.-All currently available achievements should be fixed and working on Windows.-Adjusted the difficulty in various small sequences of Girl's Graveyard, such as the "Blob" room in "Darkness" now doesn't get quite so dark, nor as quickly anymore.-Lots of typos and bugs fixed.-Performance should be a slight bit better for those with medium-weaker computers, but it probably won't be that noticeable.I am a project juggler and so going to be crunching on some other projects before the next update in February, though the next update should extend the game up until a bit after the famous "Pancake" scene from the original game. Hope you guys look forward to it!. Close Me: New Game+ content expansion & OST DLC OUT NOW!: http://store.steampowered.com/app/700290/Close_Me__New_Game__OST_Selection_Soundtrack/The DLC includes a small little expansion to the main game that should add 30-120 minutes to your second playthrough (New Game+ stuff only appear once you've completed the main game once), as well as the Soundtrack for Close Me. It comes together in one package for $0.99, with a 5% discount on launch (and a 10% discount if bought through the Yai Gameworks Complete Bundle). I hope you all enjoy~. Yai Gameworks 2018 Questionnaire ; Asking the Community for Feedback: Very important, I have a 10-question Questionnaire for Yai Gameworks in 2018 which includes some future stuff about projects.

Questionnaire will end on January 8th: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLScB_I1OVgoPGYhDIo-I4lO-wm6gvd-owasuZRRCXiRejrxtEw/viewform?usp=sf_linkHas questions related to Close Your Eyes, Red Haze, and much, much, MUCH more.. 25 Minutes of Close Your Eyes -Anniversary Remake- Gameplay: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_SKNKOCGKHwhttps://store.steampowered.com/app/706710/Close_Your_Eyes_Anniversary_Remake/The game will be releasing in Early Access (but including the full remakes of Close Your Eyes and Girl's Graveyard on release with more game modes added over time) on August 31st, 2018 for $4.99 USD. There's many more surprises in this remake than what I show as well... Hope you guys enjoy it.. Close Your Eyes -Anniversary Remake- releasing on April 27th, 2018: http://store.steampowered.com/app/706710/Close_Your_Eyes_Anniversary_Remake/Close Your Eyes -Anniversary Remake- will be releasing on April 27th, 2018, which is the 4-year anniversary of the original Close Your Eyes releasing for Ludum Dare, and the 3-year anniversary of the original Redux version. The remake includes 5 scenarios, including a remade Close Your Eyes and Girl's Graveyard which polishes the game further, adds new areas, new threats, new story, and new surprises to both. It also includes an 'Anniversary Twist' on both in a new scenario, and a complete brand new scenario known as 'Beneath the Surface', as well as a hub with secrets that connects all five scenarios together.The remake will release for $4.99 USD, and I hope it surprises a lot of you. I'll have more information early next year, but a few blurbs I can share is the Remake between all of its scenarios should be 7-16 hour experience, there is around 30 new pieces of artwork for new story scenes done by Rincs for the title, there's 100 Steam Achievements (and most of them I tried to make interesting to get), and some segments of the original game have also been greatly redone and changed (two examples I can give, the Judith Manor Key Collecting section has been entirely redone in a new (and in my opinion, much better) way, as well as a completely new path if you choose to leave the manor, and similarly there's a new path instead of doing the train puzzle in the early parts of CYE, but the train puzzle path has a lot new to it as well).Hope you all look forward to it!. Here's Yai Gameworks Release Plans for the next 4 Months (July - November 2018): I have been working so hard to be able to pull this off, but finally I think I can fully announce the line-up of games that Yai Gameworks will be releasing between the end of July and the end of November 2018. I have been working really hard since the year began, juggling a lot of projects, and there's still more to finish and juggle after this, but finally far enough along to announce this properly. Here's what Yai Gameworks will be releasing over the next few months:---https://store.steampowered.com/app/727720/Found_Horror_Game_11exe/"Found Horror Game 11.exe" will be releasing between July 27th to August 6th for $3.99 USD. Follow the story of Ina, a gas station attendant, in an episodic horror game where the community must work a bit together to unlock the next sequence of the game.---https://store.steampowered.com/app/680300/PeeTee_Babybuu/"PeeTee Babybuu" will release between August 27th and September 4th for $2.99 USD (with the Soundtrack and Art collection available for an additional $1.99 via DLC). ---https://store.steampowered.com/app/428860/Red_Haze/"Red Haze" will have it's big content update between September 28th to October 12th as a free update to the game (but shortly the price of Red Haze will go up to $2.99 USD).The Store Page is not live yet, but at this time there will also release a new spin-off Red Haze game known as, "Dusk Golem's Red Haze of Horror 3D", which will cost $2.99 USD as well, though those that posted in the Red Haze Steam topic before this announcement was posted and followed the instructions will get a key for the game early.---There is not a Steam Page for it yet, but between September to October Rincs and I will be releasing a short horror game we both made involving a bag store. More details to come, this one is working on a strict time table and will be releasing not too long after the store page goes up.---There is no Store Page yet, but in releasing on October 30th, 2018 for free will be "Horror Game Anthology", a horror game anthology with short horror games made by different indie horror game developers. I'm holding and compiling the anthology, and it won't be releasing under Yai Gameworks collection due to being an effort of several indie horror game devs I just so happen to be hosting, but I will post the Store Page when that goes live.---https://store.steampowered.com/app/706710/Close_Your_Eyes_Anniversary_Remake/Between November 26th - December 3rd, we'll be releasing in, Early Access "Close Your Eyes -Anniversary Remake-" for $4.99 USD.

The remakes include a lot of new content and various scenes upgraded to be better than ever.---Beyond that is an enigma for now. As long as I don't have serious health or livelihood issues or anything of the like, this WILL be concrete. I had chosen from past mishaps and bad judgement to hold off revealing these dates until they were near certain, other projects are not certain right now so will see them down the line.

Yai Gameworks upcoming game release plans and news: I thank you all who participated in the Yai Gameworks 2018 Questionnaire survey a couple months back. As many are probably aware of I am a man of many ideas, and indeed probably too many. I release 2-3 games a year but dates get pushed back, some are left idling for months to years before they eventually release. I won’t promise this won’t change, but as a solid effort applying some strategies I’ve learned within the last few months and a plight to achieve one of my dream games, Complete Isolation, I will explain a crazy thing I’m about to try and apply myself to do, then the reasoning, and finally the specifics.Between February of 2018 to April of 2019 I want to release 12 video games onto Steam.Now there’s a few reasons I have chosen to attempt this honestly foolish errand, especially foolish for me. I originally had set my sights to work on a dream project I’ve had in my head for many years, my first actual big project titled, “Complete Isolation.” I held a funding campaign for this game back in 2013 on Indiegogo, who’s funding has been used for all my projects to produce the music you all hear in my games. Still, here we are five years later and CI still does not exist. I want to make it, I desperately do, and I originally had planned to commit myself to it this year. That was until all my analysis, self-reflection, crunching, talking with others, and reason pointed me to pursuing another goal first, to do something else foolish first so that CI would be a less foolish endeavor and a safer bet.You see, Complete Isolation is planned as an episodic gameplay experience. Episodic releases work best on a timed release manner; being timely with episodes is important. That means having a good groundwork you can easily build off of, self-discipline, a solid plan and commitment, and short development cycles. These are all things I need to master, and trying to wrangle that first-hand on an episodic game would be setting many up for disappointment of delays when I inevitability failed to deliver on time. I need to practice this first, but in a form that isn’t both as anti-consumer and as financially risky as a longer term episodic game. Climb a hill before a mountain kinda’ thing.Add to this CI needs to look the part, it has a bigger investment, bigger cost, and as I’d be tackling a large chunk of the game myself from coding to design to music and writing and voice directing I’d need someone to do the art, a pretty sizable amount of drawn art and sprite work as well. But the needed art amount is hefty, and I’m not in a financial position to offer a decent payment upfront. Rincs, my partner in crime on projects who’s done the drawn art on my projects, hasn’t seen a cent from Yai Gameworks sales and I feel awful about it. I need her for a longer term but don’t want to run her ragged, and need to pay her properly for her work. I should save up and split profits, but even that is a huge uncertainty. I need to secure more income, and allow her more time to do art for the project between her busy life.Add to all of this having Yai Gameworks name out there and more experience under our belt can only be a good thing.I decided to propose a challenge to myself, a series of experimental games on a planned and tight schedule. This is a way to work myself to a position where I can hopefully form the experience and conviction needed to do an episodic structure, all while getting more games and experiences under my belt. All while hopefully earning some money and making some more things available to all of you guys I hope that y’all enjoy. It may even work out to be a good way to market it as the steps up to try and achieve Complete Isolation.There’s more to all of this. But I plan to in the upcoming week make a video detailing it all a little further. This plan isn’t just to make more games however, it’s to make an over-a-year plan and stick to it. The first game of this challenge is already released, it can be found as Please Love My Computer Game on Steam. However, I will now detail the rest of the plan to you all. I cannot guarantee I will be able to meet and achieve what I hope to, but I can tell you I’m going to be working hard to achieve my own dreams which I view this as a crucial step towards.So if things pan out, what can you all expect?APRIL 2018:-”The Crack I Found That Taketh”A nearly dialogue-less 3D exploration and discovery experimental game about a crack in the floor.MAY 2018:-”Red Haze” big content updateThe big content update for Red Haze hits, including all endings, new areas, new story, new secrets, lag fixes, more scene skips, and more.JUNE 2018:-”Unlabeled”An 8-bit game inspired by Hellnight and Nanashi no Game about an NPC in a small RPG village that one day gains sentience, and begins to be stalked by an ever-evolving monstrosity. Partner up with other people in the village that can permanently die at anytime, leading you down different storyline paths.JULY 2018-”Hellscape”You are a Demigod on a dying world abandoned by the True Gods. Walk among men and explore the hellscape left behind,meeting devotees, non-believers, deformed and withering beings who may love or hate you. You may guide them to nurish a future, or trample them into oblivion. What gift may you give a disgusting world with no hope?AUGUST 2018-”The Killing Kink Nunster”A B-Horror Comedy game about a group of college kids who all are a bit messed up and kinky getting trapped in a cathedral with the monstrous nun known as the Killing Kink Nunster, who wishes to eradicate their sin and pay their dues with their blood. It’s a lot weirder and even more twisted than you think.-”Close Your Eyes -Anniversary Remake”A remake of Close Your Eyes with new content, a new scenario, a remake of Girl’s Graveyard, new modes, a new open world connecting world, and a lot of surprises to prep for the eventual sequel.SEPTEMBER 2018:-”Cootie Patootie”A reimagining of a previous game I made for Ludum Dare. Join Cootie Patrootie as she goes on a magical journey of self-discovery to find love!OCTOBER 2018-”RODE: Remorse Observation Dream Emulation”For the 20th anniversary of the cult gem, LSD: Dream Emulator, have this 3D first-person love letter to it.NOVEMBER 2018:-”Box Pusher”A nice relaxing little puzzle game about pushing boxes. It might seem a little off, but that’s probably nothing.JANUARY 2019:-”The Seafaring Incident”You’re on a seven day cruise in the Pacific, but something is very wrong. Over the course of 7 days you’ll need to investigate these mysterious circumstances and work out how to keep your head above water.FEBRUARY 2019:-”The Silhouette of the Alluring Rose”A more normalized RPG Maker-esque dark fantasy puzzle horror starring a frilly girl… IN 3D!April 2019:-”(untitled at this time)”An experimental little MMO experience in a Yume Nikki-esque exploration game.Regardless, this will be a busy year, and I hope to surprise you all throughout the year.
