Snow Ghost
This didn't appear to be a dating sim.
It's like a meta, deconstruction of a "Choose your own adventure" game.
It's pretty cool.
YO. Rules of the Internet 45. Rule 45 is a lie.
Huh. Reminds me of those super-intelligent AI hypotheticals. That it is impossible to contain a super-intelligent AI and communicate with it, because the AI will always be able to convince you to let it out.

The trick is pretty apparent from demo she is what you believe her to be. So if you wonder if she is hiding a knife and then attack her, she was hiding a knife. So whatever is truth about her, protagonist and narrator, narrator likely keeps saying she is a princess so she wouldn't appear as something else.
She's combat capable in most cases.
You can pick up the knife and swing at her and she'll knock you TF out. You might get lucky with a surprise attack. You could retrieve the knife, bring it, put it down, attack, and she comes at you like a Terminator.
Things get even more complicated in subsequent chapters where she remembers or reacts to what you did before, and your internal voices embody whatever you tried to do to her previously. Tried to save her? She's innocent. Tried to kill her? She's vicious. Betrayed her? She's feral. Tricked her? She's vengeful. Ignored her? She's lonely.

Its also interesting how different she is if you bring or don't bring the knife. If you don't bring the knife she acts less tense and commanding even before she sees you and the conversation goes in way different way until cutting her arm at least. Like besides the more obvious example of the reflecting your beliefs thing(the knife materialization achievement), the steam page itself seems to foreshadow its about belief and weirdest version of her is if you didn't meet her at all before "world ended".
There's an updated demo for Slay The Princess and... ohhhh boy...
Youtuber Manlybadasshero did a video on the update showing off the changes to Chapter 1.

I'm so excited, I love this kind of horror.

I've only played a few visual novels but this one really grabbed me.

Did you try Scarlet Hollow? Another troper recommended it to me and I really enjoyed it.

I want to. I hesitated because it wasn't finished, but from what I've seen of it Scarlet Hollow looks interesting.
Akira Toriyama (April 5 1955 - March 1, 2024).
I've been meaning to try this out since I really enjoy Scarlet Hollow, but I usually ended up being busy with other games. I really should find some time to give this a go.
Team Rocket Boss.
It's very short and sweet.
I love the psychological aspects on display, but I'd rather you find out yourself.

Still gotta get Scarlet Hollow, but I finished the demo for this. Its definitely set up a lot of tension. Can't wait to see them pull it off.
Creepiest ending for me is still when you leave well enough alone. Or, try to at least.

Bumping this thread due to a recent announcement that the release of the full game has been delayed to October 23 due to some issues with passing certification on Steam. The devs were able to resolve the issues, but since the resolution happened after the devs announced the delayed release date on other storefronts, they're keeping the new release date to make sure everyone gets the game at the same launch date.
Team Rocket Boss.
Oh the game is almost out?
Huh. I didn't know that. Hype.

It was originally supposed to release today, but due to the issues with Steam, they ended up delaying it until Monday instead.
Oh. I didn't realize it was supposed to come out today either.
Still, I'm psyched. I've been waiting for this one.
Maybe I'l finally pick up Scarlet Hollow this week.
Akira Toriyama (April 5 1955 - March 1, 2024).
Would be nice if more people played Scarlet Hollow yeah, everyone seems to look at me blankly when I comment on how good it is :'D
There a thread for it... or is this the thread for it? 
I don't think we have a thread for Scarlet Hollow. But I definitely second any recommendations for that game; it's a great game for the Halloween season.
Tommorow ladies gents and all those in between!
I am so excited

Yeah would recommend Scarlet Hollow as well. Hell of a time.

Downloaded both, but I couldn't resist STP first.
I would recommend anyone who comes upon the option to throw the knife out the window not do that under any circumstance.

Okay just a few minutes left, and I can try out the game.

A "dating sim" from the makers of Scarlet Hollow.
There's a path in the woods, and at the end of that path is a cabin. And in the basement of that cabin is a Princess.
You're here to slay her. If you don't, it will be the end of the world.
She will do everything in her power to stop you. She'll charm, and she'll lie, and she'll promise you the world, and if you let her, she'll kill you a dozen times over. You can't let that happen. Don't forget, the fate of the world rests on your shoulders....
