Unnatural Occurrences
Unnatural Occurrences: The Events Culminating in the Invocation of the Soul Reaper
An occult management simulator.
Sell potions to make money, spend money on equipment and other items to improve your abilities as an occultist, with the aim of summoning
the most evil demon there is... but be careful not to arouse too much suspicion whilst doing so, and keep an eye on your mental health, the
dark arts can have a severe effect on it....
UI:
- Click on the buttons at the bottom of the screen to access the shop and actions available in a given room (not all rooms have actions) (and the menu button).
- Click on the buttons at the top right to switch between the 5 rooms.
- Stats in the shop and action menu are red if they are a cost that you cannot afford, white if you can afford it, and green if they are a reward.
- Actions give one-off bonuses, items bought in the shop increase the rate it which your stats increase every tick.
Basic Guide:
- Money: Make money by selling potions in the Lab. Upgrade the Lab and read more books to make better potions and more money!
- Suspicion: Selling potion, casting spells and summoning daemons increases your suspicion, don't allow it to get too high otherwise you may be punished...
- Foreboding: Upgrade the chapel and read some books to increase your foreboding score.
- Vital Fluid: Can only be attained through goat sacrifice; upgrade the butchery to increase your vital fluid.
- Madness: Take care when meddling in the dark arts, the more you meddle, the worse things get...
- Dark Lore: Purchase more books from the library in order to increase your knowledge of Dark Lore.
- Expedience: Upgrade the Lab and read books to increase your expedience.
- Malevolence: Read books and upgrade the exhumer in the the graveyard to increase your malevolence.
BUG FIXES:
- Madness and Suspicion will go yellow then red as you get closer to losing the game, so you know before you lose
- Music now working properly
- Candles now working properly
- Shop now working properly
- It's possible to summon the Soul Reaper (Satan)
- stats balanced
- UI fixes

Couldn't really figure out the point of the different things.
Also didn't like the idea of being a character of the occult.
Check out my game if you like!

The only real criticism I have is that the menu design could maybe be improved, and I came across a few bugs:
- "money" menu in the first room stuck open on my second run
- bug when exiting settings menu, couldn't figure out how to get back to the game
Other minor criticisms:
- button icons could maybe have been a bit cooler (considering how cool the rest of the art is)
- Font a little hard to read sometimes (though it does suit the theme well)
@jason-kennedy Have you tried the web version? We'll try to sort a linux version if there's time!
Your game shines with it's great graphics and the atmopshere of mad widzard facility which is exceptionally restituted. That's definitely a great entry.
