Horu and the girl at the machine
The name search is “Horu.” Steam’s ACM3 page is the sentence I can stand on: you play as Horu, a work-from-home game artist. The earlier games introduce a mysterious girl and do not hand me her biography.


What not to add
The official Modder calls the transforming character Horu; ACM3 explicitly names the artist protagonist Horu. The ACM1/2 storefront introduction calls her a mysterious girl without a biography. No source cited here establishes an age, surname, or school.
Who drinks
ACM1’s text allows the girl to drink or you to drink. ACM2 community notes talk about player forms. I have not verified a full player-form list in 0.6.6.
Questions
Is the girl named on the official page?
The storefront introduction says mysterious girl. The developer's Modder documentation calls its transforming character Horu. That is the named primary source, not an inferred biography.
Who is the ACM3 neighbor?
The Patron-only v0.2 devlog added a neighbor. That is not confirmation of the same extra character in public v0.1.2; no canonical name is established here.
