welcome to the official [????] blog of the at-some-point-up-coming game Love Loveless!! you'll also see it be referred to as "aavn", which stands for aroace/aromantic asexual visual novel.
the game is about the player, named sophie by default, and their journey through their own figurative hell as theyre pursued romantically by seven different people- buttercup, poppy, chicory, rose, camellia, daisy, and aster.
feel free to shoot questions to the inbox!!!! i loveee talking about these guys :]

Characters
Protagonist: Default name Sophie. Not particularly interested in the going-ons around them. Tired of everyone's shit. Not an asshole, just exhausted from dodging everyone's advances.
Buttercup: Protag's relatively recently made friend. Extremely relaxed and difficult to provoke. Incredibly interested in percussion and will constantly reference it. Protag believes there's something off here.
Poppy: Protag's childhood friend. Sweet and kind, but easily falls into a rage. Constantly changes lifestyle, but not for any specific reason. Mostly just trying to have fun.
Chicory: Moved in next door to Protag recently. Has caught the attention of many residents around with a skaterboy-esque charm. Very into anything with wheels; skateboards, rollerblades, heelys even.
Rose: Tries to act cool. Mostly fails. Somehow still has charisma. Incredibly violent but somehow not particularly set on the idea of intentionally hurting people.
Camellia: The Hot Girl. Serial complainer. World's number one hater. A lot smarter than most people assume.
Daisy: Anxiety-prone and extremely self-aware. Moved up from the south and trying to adjust.
Aster: A reclusive bookworm. A particular fan of horror and experimental novels. Kind of a dickhead.
ok so i do actually need plots with different sets of characters because my idea for the game is that like. as you progress through the story and your bonds with characters level up, if you go to the right places at the right times with the right bonds with the right people then you unlock like super secret scenes and story n such and man. you know what just happened. i need to create an Incident........... i need to create a Thing that happened the characters dont elaborate on until you form a strong enough bond.....
I want to cry I have spent three days and two borrowed devices trying to get android studio to run a simulation of this dumb app I need to test and It just Won’t ughhh fifteen downloads heeding stack overflow and studio’s docs and just why is compatibility so complicateddddd
Being the absolute worst at doing art, not being able to draw a straight line, circle, match colors, etc. I'm deciding to give it one final hoorah and work the next few months on art. Daily. So I'll start posting ( hopefully weekly ) "improvements" on here. It's going to be miserable and I don't feel hopeful at getting better since my art has been limited to what I called "advanced stick figures"* since elementary school.
So here's week one...
* A square with a circle on top and two circles floating around to resemble hands. No feet were ever involved. Infact I still have my "best" one hanging on my board from elementary school. I'll post that sometime.
Aight, events are now in the game! But sadly that's just code... so nothing to show. I have this looming feeling I'm going to be redoing a large portion of code soon...
