TLDR; Right now, since this is a soft launch, I will be offering all the rewards for free throughout June, at least those that I can manage (mainly polls and game WIPs)
Welcome to a place where I post game dev updates, exclusive art, polls and more for my game characters! Currently I'm working on:
CLUES CLEANING CREW
A half dating sim half mystery visual novel where you'll be playing as Evelyn and finding your true self alongside the intriguing past of the mansion you work at. Find out more about your co-workers in the cleaning crew, and discover who you are.
DEATH NIGHT SHOW
You are offered a new internship as Death's assistant, band member, light crew, live sound direction (and more!) on the Death Night Show, a late night show hosted by, well, Death himself. Learn more about his secrets and the way of hell in this fun comedic mystery visual novel.
(A Spooktober 2024 Off-Shoot Game about Death and his antics will start development in September 2024, as per jam rules dictate)

it's a festival on the front page of Steam ran by indie VNs devs for visual novels and other narrative-driven games, with a heavy emphasis on VNs. there's a ton of visual novels there including some more higher profile & budget ones, but by in large its by indies for indies.
go check it out if you want to see some cool visual novels you've never heard of!!!!!
First and foremost, we're sorry for the lack of updates here on our blog… even more so because we'll be putting the production of "When The Ocean Meets The Sky" on hold.
We've been quite busy with our lives recently, so we thought that putting the production of WTOMTS on hold will be for the best- HOWEVER!
We'll be back around May - June 2024 with more updates!
We thank you for your continuous support on "When The Ocean Meets The Sky."
When the Ocean Meets the Sky [Demo] is Officially out!
Date: December 8, 2023
hihi !! it's ezz here, i've hijacked the tumblr account <3 thank you so much to everyone who has followed our progress so far !
we haven't been able to give consistent devlogs for a while due to school matters and etcetera. etcetera. ; _ ; but ANYWAY i'm so glad to announce that we've finally completed the demo of our visual novel, 'When the Ocean Meets the Sky'!
even if it was difficult keeping up at times, i really loved working on this game with everyone here at the team, and i hope everyone enjoys this first taste of our work too <3
Pink Pro - [Pink]y [Pro]mise - is the union of "the pink-colored game" and "the sweets-themed game" that I've wanted to make for ages. All with a smattering of yuri and monster girls to garnish.
The demo covers the first ten or twenty minutes. It depends on how much and what you want to read.
«Chantal and Janet are the two best bakers in Rhodopolis. Once rivals, they are now engaged, but they continue to have separate and competing businesses.
Accompany Chantal, meet customers' tastes, search for the right ingredients to create customized sweets and defeat Janet!
... At least until Janet is kidnapped by one of her clients.»
You can find it at these coordinates:
🍰 Available on Itch.io (Click me! Click me!)
🍰 In English and Italian
🍰 Features an all-female cast, a lot of sweets and a lot of pink
🍰 Major warnings are sort of body horror and, for the full version, abduction, attempted choking, hatred for "the different one" that can be interpreted as racism or homophobia
🍰 4.000+ words (Flavour texts and NPCs included)
🍰 About twenty minutes of reading, walking simulator and cooking minigame
