2024 Demo is now ready guys!!!
No voice acting or animation yet, but the core game is functional! Please excuse the long wait, complicated business, I'm afraid.
Thanks again for waiting! Enjoy!!
Fanart from my character artist, slicedbaecon! The relevance of this girl I’ll hide for now, but trust me she’s very important in the future…
The game’s first two episodes are being set up for animation, all assets but a prologue’s already prepared. Just be a little more patient and wait for June!
Hello everyone! In case you didn’t read the devlogs I’m still working on this game, don’t worry! It’s going to be about seven times bigger than what was originally intended! The release date had to be moved to June for about 3 episodes. The game is very big and I’m working with what I have since the Crowdfunding failed so please be patient! Trust me when I say you will be surprised at the unique quality when it’s out!
Heres a loading screen/advertisement picture!

I would love to play this but at the same time I'm busy making my own VN... But I'll play it on my free time and give you feedback😊😊
Would appreciate it, thanks!
I found the game interesting and an interesting idea for the game to be styled in 80s anime. The story seems interesting as well. I wish there was a proper menu and audio settings within the game.
Here's my channel for other games I have played. https://www.youtube.com/c/Levont
Volume control, got it. There is technically a menu when you hit the pause button, but I really wanted an old movie-like experience. Still though, with all else considered, I enjoyed your playthrough. God bless, man, and thanks for the critique!
Looking for opinions on this game before it (hopefully) launches on Steam! Any more opinions/criticisms are welcome!
My only uh, suggestions, would be to, if possible, use a original soundtrack, even if just a basic OST because the songs kinda felt out of place, and also personally I found the ending of the demo to be very VERY tension/immersion breaking. Should also be careful with that loud static noise, it went from unnerving to annoying real quick.
I feel this project has a lot of good things going on so I hope dev, that you can polish those edges.
Will do, thanks. Great vid, btw!
This is my first game so please forgive me if I've left something out in the process, friends. God bless.
