Trivia
- Is debatable that Valeria is effectively a heroine or a villainess, despite her "good" Actions, Valeria says this on the original Final Episode: "I'm doing this 'cause these guys are making things more miserable." but in the Reboot she says: "I am doing this 'cause these dudes are so ******** Annoying." . Her big character development will not happen until the sequel.
- This game is based on the Reboot rather than the original, in where there was many writing and spelling errors.
- This game is the first attempt at In-Verse Productions to create a true 'antihero'.
