hello there! Just had to make an account finally to leave a little fan message. I just wanted to say that this has been an extremely incredible trip. I don't wanna get sappy/overly complimentary but I've loved some of your past work but was one of those that fell out of your particular niche of game dev over the years (blame personal tragedy + struggling through college.)
I stumbled across these games after a long period of total creative stagnation without realizing that the same person who's work inspired me to dick around in RPGMaker over a decade ago had made the new thing I was obsessed with. Your work has rekindled a spark in me that I kind of thought had died a long time ago, and inspired me to give making games and art another shot after so many years.
Someday soon I will make a horrible game about ghost stomachs in hell, as I should've done a long time ago before life beat the shit out of me, and it is in no small part these games that have caused me to rediscover that I like making things. Thank you, genuinely, for that.

P.S.: Was that final shot inspired at all by Mark Beyer's Agony? Some of the particularly dark humor in this part reminded me of it, and it seems like something that would potentially be in your wheelhouse... I hope I'm not being a "getting a lot of Boss Baby vibes from this" guy about it, haha.
So i'm beyond surprised with the conclusion that had this game series. The fact that BB turned into the new Killer of XX City was the biggest plot twist of all time, and i'm very sad that she'll never get the chance to see her sister again.
That's such a dark way to end the a magnificent series like this in my opinion. But that's not the only good thing i liked about this game.
The previous antagonists from the previous games returning as undead was memorable, like, holy moly i wasn't expecting to see them here. Even Marcie! BB's Classmates returned which was really wholesome since their dynamic was pretty dope on Flesh, the new songs made for this game were fantastic! And god flippin' dangit i loved BB and Director Bosso's final climatic duel. It was funny, it was intense, and the music used was honestly fitting!
Ever since i've meet this series i was always captivated by its unique style and story line. I mean this game sure had a pretty unique, original and pretty captivating story that made every single game feel connected to each other (which is proven on this game), and this finale wasn't disappointing in the slightest.
Just.. Wow... What a perfect conclusion to the Anthology Of the Killer.
And i hope for the lord of sakes that this isn't the last we'll see of BB and... i could say company but. I'm afraid she doesn't have anymore... But yeah...
Hope we atleast get a continuation for this series in the future. With completely new characters and more crazy plotlines.
That's all i have to say about this game. It's amazing, you know it's amazing, it's Face Of the Killer, Babyyyy~
It doesn't get better than this...
A completely deserved: 10/10
It's a shame that this series is coming to an end, but it's great to see how it grew and was charming the whole way through!
Are there any plans for more games in this universe or plans for other games in the future?
What an ending... and of course, in true Strange Town style, it leaves us with more questions than answers!

From what I can gather, BB is now revered as an icon of murder just as the Killer was, to the point where the Killer has taken on the form of XX City's twisted mental image of BB now...
I guess BB really has managed to achieve the American Dream-- from struggling art student and failed zine producer to pop culture icon and possible god.
i am so happy about the final game and i am the 1st to play it!
All the dogs are laughing - there is talk of a new play.
As fireworks burst over XX City, BB finds herself staring into the face of the Killer.
9th + final of the "of the killer" series. Arrows or WASD to move around, return key to confirm.
