Marupok
Story and Features
You play as Maricel, a kind-hearted woman whose simple act of friendship is misinterpreted by her former classmate, Joaquin. Years later, he returns, obsessed, unhinged, and dangerous. Trapped in her own apartment, Maricel must outsmart him before it’s too late.
Marupok is a Filipino horror game about the emotional vulnerability of people who fall in love too easily, only to get hurt or saddened when rejected.
In Filipino, marupok means "fragile" or "weak," but in a romantic context, it refers to someone who is easily swayed by love or prone to heartbreak.
Estimated Playtime: 15 to 30 minutes
- Love Story Gone Wrong
- Creepy Atmosphere
- Walking Simulator
- Filipino Dialogue
- 2 Endings (True and Bad)

Thank you so much Travis! I appreciate this ^_^
J'ai adoré ! J'ai passé un super bon moment. Fin très inattendue haha, j'espère en voir plus de ce petit développeur <3 // I loved it! I had a great time. Very unexpected ending haha, hope to see more from this little developer <3 //
Thank you so much Cassilie for playing Marupok! I'm happy you loved it. We got two new games after Marupok so if you're interested, you can check it out on my page ^_^ (Don't Sleep and Kawalan)
The game (version 2.0) freezes randomly. I can still interact with the interface, but I can't move the camera or actually play. I've tried restarting the game twice and even tested both versions, but the issue persists. I was really hooked by the story, but unfortunately, it's not playable on my end. It's especially disappointing since I'm streaming it while playing.
Hi Meanly, thank you for your feedback. I understand the issue you're experiencing, and I appreciate you bringing it to my attention. While version 2.0 works fine for some players, I’ve also received reports from others encountering similar problems. Interestingly, version 1.2 appears to run more reliably for most, based on both feedback and my own observations.
I'm currently working on a fix and aiming to release an improved version by the weekend with some overhaul changes in the game that I wasn't able to do back then. I sincerely apologize for the inconvenience, and I appreciate your patience and support.
Edit: I’ve noticed that the player controls weren’t as stable as intended, so I’m currently working on a new control system that will hopefully resolve the issue. 😊
Pretty fun game with unique character models!
Thanks so much! 😁💯
Hi Murushii!
I happen to come across this game and absolutely loved the unique art style and gameplay mechanics! While unfortunately I don't stream, it's clear a lot of passion went into this project.
I run a Discord server dedicated to game developers where we discuss projects, share feedback, and explore opportunities for equity-based investment. I think you might find it valuable, especially if you're looking to connect with like-minded developers and potential investors.
And I would personally like you to be our first client.
If you’re interested, feel free to check it out! Here’s the link: https://discord.gg/7QwcRfADD9
Keep up the fantastic work!
cheers,

Will look into this, thanks!
GREAT GAME! I was not expecting the twist towards the end lol. The story was also really good and made me think a lot. It was a crazy experience, and I'd love to see more. Awesome Job!
Thanks so much! :D
Thank you so much Conuhh! :D
Hi Mewmewbr0! Thank you so much for your interest! There aren’t any plans for Steam at the moment since it takes a lot of requirements to get a game on there, but I’d love to make it happen eventually. I really appreciate your support! ^_^
Nasa unahang part palang po ako, di ako makaupo sa couch :'(
Hello, anong version dinownload mo?
1.2
Oh I will look into it. Also, could you try restarting the game? The hitbox of the couch is small. You have to aim the crosshair exactly at the middle of the couch. Let me know if that works. ^_^
I restarted it like 3 times already and went all of the positions and distances but still I can't see the hitbox.
I will look into this now. I'll notify you once I put out a new updated one. Thank you jaymimi for reporting this!
Hi jaymimi! Sorry for the delay, I just released the 2.0.0 update. Hopefully this fixes the issue. Thank you so much!
