About the Game

This is an independent game, a purely independent game. The story and text are written by myself, and the graphics are drawn by myself. This is a visual novel with approximately 500,000 words, including some gameplay elements. Currently, the plan is to have both a story mode and a gameplay mode. However, the story is the main product, while the gameplay is a complimentary feature. I guess the results may not satisfy you, so please focus on the story.

As for the shortcomings, they are also quite prominent. The personal style is overly obvious. There simply isn't another text game like this. Firstly, the writing style of this game is colloquial, reminiscent of storytelling scripts. Secondly, the author of this game is short on funds, so all the illustrations are crudely drawn by himself. However, I have done my best. I also wanted to use AI, but the style doesn't suit my writing. Therefore, players, please forgive me! [I have heard a saying in the gaming world: as long as there is love, the illustrations will look cool.]
