Developer Notes:

Inspiration:

The game is inspired by early 2000s and TV Shows/Games like: Smallville, Life Is Strange, Twin Peaks.

As far as NSFW stuff goes, one particular Visual Novel that’s #1 by visits in here has inspired me to try and see what I can do with storytelling.

What to expect:

This is my first project, so if something’s bad – tell me about it. As long as criticism is valid and not “Buh, this sucks just because”. Writing is bad: cool, tell me why? Maybe I have missed something. Renders need to be more colorful/too dark/lack details? Tell me, I’ll try to fix it.

Can I expect mini-games/sandbox features in the future:

As of now, my skill with Ren’Py is not high enough to make something like it. And if you can’t make something fun – no point of implementing this ingame. A few episodes deep – maybe, but if won’t definitely be “find character A at the specific time to talk with her”. I don’t want to and steal time from you just to write “Oh, it’s 2hrs of gameplay instead of 1:30.”, while these 30 minutes is you clicking on Empty Rooms)

NTR/Harem/Vanilla: As far as this goes – I do like a splash of realism in there. What I mean by that: characters around you – hero, live their own lives. They meet each other, communicate and get along with each other, set rivalries and friendships etc. Let me give you another example: if you don’t approach the girl you like – someone else will approach her. But with that being sad: will your LIs cheat on you? NO. Will you see other people having sexual intercourses: only when it will be necessary to move plots/subplots. So, no “Harry’s fucking Sally, oh my God, I’m hard”
