About

You play as a survivor in a future where the sun has rendered most of Earth uninhabitable. This indie visual novel blends life simulation with branching storytelling as you navigate daily struggles and relationships. Your decisions in dialogue and small actions shape connections while managing the harsh realities of the environment. The narrative unfolds through multiple paths with consequences that ripple through the story. The game’s structure emphasizes player choice with numerous branching paths leading to varied endings. Running on PC, Linux and Mac, it’s a more compact experience compared to other visual novels, typically taking under 100 hours to complete. While not graphically intensive, the writing and character interactions drive the experience. The focus on personal connections against a backdrop of societal collapse offers a quieter alternative to more action-driven sim titles.
