A downloadable game for Windows and macOS
A child’s mind can be controlled easily, just like a puppet on strings.

Will she escape alive in time for her birthday?
Synopsis
“A little girl named Marinette, in the wake of a splitting family and a change of homes, is having a birthday. But this, her eleventh birthday, will present a deadly opportunity to fulfill a special promise.On the night before her birthday, she is drawn into a strange realm; an unnatural dollhouse, populated with dolls who are not quite what they seem.
A web of strings lying in wait, and threatening to ensnare the poor marionette; warping her perception, and twisting her every move. Will the strings attach, and force her to become an unwilling puppet, or will she escape this surreal web of strings? What will she have to do to avoid the dangers of the dollhouse, and set herself free?”

Played the demo! It was really cute! Keep up the good work!
Interesting nice little game!
Hey I played your demo, as Itch recommended it to me and it was fantastic for just a demo. Can't wait for the full release if ya'll are still working on it and best of luck with whatever! Here's my playthrough for anybody that wants to check out it out -
Hi, my name is Denice and I´´'m from El Salvador. I´'m a professional translator and I´'m studying Video Game Localization. I´'m interested in this game and I want to know if you would like to translate this game into Spanish. I would like to gain experience in this field and participate in the project if possible. Since I don't see any email, I wrote to you here in the comments.
Hello, Denice, we really appreciate the offer!
However, the game has already been translated to Spanish!
Thank you, have a great day!
-Mitty, lead dev of Marinette
Super excited for the full release! The visuals and story so far are amazing!
how do i get past the door while also trying to get past the confetti thing?! i keep pressing c but keep failing! help!
You just gotta keep trying faster! You've got this!
a)how fast?! b)NOT HELPFUL! c)provide more concrete details in game
a) faster;
b) git gud m8;
c) maybe in the final game we will make it easier or?? even more obvious? It literally says what key to press and you've done it before with a pot.
and d) people got through this part without any help, sounds like a skill issue really;
Cheers and good luck on the quick time event!
-Mitty
all it says is press c, i even button mash but fail
Damn, this is a demo? It's an absolute masterpiece!
