Sorry for a bit of a radio silence, let me tell you what I have been working on.

First of all, the ghost ai is, for the most part, done. She will haunt you when you are close to completing the level and she will sometimes spawn to float around, to be randomly found by you.

The ending 'cutscene', along with animations has been created. It should properly trigger when you have done everything.

The last thing I was working on is the new dialogue system and window. It looks something like this right now.

Obviously need to play with colors and font, but I think it looks decent.

Long time guys, here is an update for you! 

Step 11 is done. You can currently 'finish' the game, by collecting clues and doing objectives.

Also the journal has been poorly implemented.

Also I drew a loop for 1 sex scene.

Amazing. I suck.

Anyway, with that done, we one step closer to finish this beast.

Now we need to return to ghost and make her work properly.

Wish I could show you the video guys, but at this point it will be spoilers. I want you to discover things on your own.

Here is what has been achieved:

-Full room has been drawn and created with transitions between them

-Some clue objects finilized

-Ghost at certain points will chase the player and if she reaches him, she will pull random prank out of her ass

-There are only 3 now, but I will add more, the good news, the system is in place for them to work

So with this, I think it's finally time for the hardest part. Putting all this together.

So step 11 will be:

1. Finalize the clues with proper text descriptions

2. Finalize the items with proper functions

3. Make finished gameplay (Gathering clues -> ghost phase -> proper item usage -> finale)

4. Draw S E X scene as a bonus objective.

Dunno how long it will take me, but yeah, after this is done, the game should be very close to being finished. The first level at least. Still gotta do the menu and what not, but if I can do this main gameplay loop, then we are golden boys. You'll be fucking some fat ghost tits made by yours truly. From scratch.

After some struggles and a lot of alcoholic binges, I think step 9 has been complete and I even did some more things as a bonus.So - what has been achieved:-The rooms were reworked and new ones created (the plan is of course to make it look like a normal house. At this point I won't show more so you can explore by yourself!)-More objects were drawn-Ghost may now just float around the random rooms-Several things can triggers the spawning of the ghost-The ghost may not always be aggressive and just fly around

-The ghost switches to aggressive state when certain conditions fulfilled

With that, we have most of our gameplay elements - done.

Clue gathering, objectives and ghost AI.

It's time to add some pranks (and spooks).

Damn, this is getting harder and harder. 

Anyway, step 8, through some miracle, has been achieved. Sort of. I think. Still needs some cleaning. It seemed so easy at first. Just add a couple of triggers for win conditions and be done with it. Well, that led me quite a deep rabbit hole.

So. What has been achieved.

-Inventory system is poorly implemented.

-You can select items, read their descriptions and use them

-Winning conditions have been implemented. By completing 3 objectives, you win the game

Alright. After countless battles and sex sessions with my script (and the help of my friend) I was able to implement a better dialogue system which properly interacts with clues.

For now, I am satisfied with it.

So let's discuss step 8.

Here we will round out the gameplay and create a winning objective.

It will be:

-Collect all 3 clues

-Find victims room

-Check your journal for the ghost type

-Read what actions need to be performed

-Perform those actions

-Bind the ghost in the victims room

-You win

So for step 8 we will:

1. After clues are collected and information about ghost is learned the triggers should become active for the actions.

2. Create those actions (flipping the lights, smoking in the room etc.)

3. After completing those actions and arriving in the victims room, the game should say YOU WIN.

So let's do it. Wish me luck!

Man. I tumbled down the fucking coding hole hard. How are other people developing games is a fucking mystery to me.

Anyway, step 7 is sorta done. But it's messy. And not really working as intended. 

Before I go to step 8. I want to refine this. 

And yeah, ignore the draconian quality of the dialogue box. I was ripping hair out of my ass, trying to make this to work. So making it look good can wait.

So - what has been achieved:

-Dialogue box implemented

I won't bore you with a video this time, because there is nothing that much new.

But here is what has been achieved

-Small placeholder smoking animation has been added

-By pressing a button, the character smokes a fat doobie

-By completing both of the objectives you 'win' the game

In preparation for the future step, the 7th step will include

1. Create a simple dialogue box

2. Create a clue spot

3. By interacting with a clue a dialogue box should pop, describing what it is

4. By interacting with 3 clues, a huge box should appear detailing the ghost we are attempting to hunt

Wish me luck!

Yo, check this out! Looks quite good, if I do say so myself.Lights turn on and off at the press of the button.After flicking it 5 times, we win! For now. That's just the first step of creating game objectives.
With 5th step done, let's move onto the 6th.
Let's create another win objective. Let's make it so after flicking the light switch 5 times and then finding the correct room and smoking a ciggarete in it, we get a WIN message. 

So we have to:

1. Create a smoking animation.

2. Attach a button to it.

3. Upon flicking the switch and smoking a cig in the right room, we get a win message.

Let's get to work!

There she is. In all her booba glory.Still learning how to do animation correctly. It looks slightly unnatural. Maybe a plus for a ghost? I don't know. It's good enough for now. Although I am not sure I'll go back and change. We'll see. Maybe later, IF I am better.
So now with step 4 complete, I was thinking about the gameplay loop that I want to achieve.My original idea was reading clues and finding the right items. But it seems quite boring. And once again people will just share the solution online.
I was thinking, maybe to fuck and exorcise the ghost you need to complete a series of weird and crazy objectives, which are detailed in your dads journal.

Like flip the light switch 5 times. Spit in the toilet. Light a cigarette near corpse - etc. etc.

All the while the ghost randomly chaises you. You start with full descriptions, but later levels, you will have to guess yourself, or something.
