A visual novel about dealing with the grief of losing a loved one.

• three endings

• original story

• original art

• original music

Play it here:

tools I used:

• Krita for art
• BeepBox and Audacity for music and sound effects
• engine: Ren'Py

Aaaaand here it is. Finally.

Took way longer than expected. And there's stuff that I definitely want to change once the rating period has ended.

I wanted to add some ending illustrations, and I wanted the choices made in this game to affect how many critters are blocking the next choices. Since I have to place everything by hand and can't just save the critter animations simply as animations (nooo, I have to save and place every single frame D:), this would have taken me way longer than it already has.

Also, I need to rework one or two illustrations (I'm looking at you, wonky room).

What else is there to say?

I'm exhausted. And happy. Definitely happy. Especially since I have barely any experience using Ren'Py. (Who thought learning how to use a new engine just shortly before the beginning of a game jam would be a good idea??? lol)
