Once a year, Punxsutawney Phil crawls out of a hole in the ground to tell you how far away Spring is. Not long after, sake-bento also crawls out of a hole in the ground to tell you how far away NaNoRenO is. And the answer is: SOON.
NaNoRenO 2024 starts March 1st. Join the annual game jam where you make a visual novel from scratch in a month!
Parfum Nostalgique is a kinetic visual novel series that details a small but eventful window of time in the life of 265 year-old therapist-by-day, dom-by-night vampire, Valdemar Andressen.
A story of friendship, tragedy, and unconditional love that explores the conflict between moral personhood and the human necessity of wearing different masks, Parfum Nostalgique is a coming of age for those who have already come of age, or what some would call a “midlife crisis."
Strap in for a wild ride of twists, turns, and tears accompanied by a vintage shoujo manga-inspired art, an original soundtrack, and a robust cast of voice actors!
I'm holding a short, anonymous survey for visual novel developers to see what social media sites they're currently using and how Twitter changes have affected them.
the results will be compiled onto my blog as well as another post here.
There's plenty of fun to discover while hopelessly lost in a labyrinth!

Hello Tumblr! This is a blog for my new visual novel, Celestial Crowns.
I’m not giving up on Arena Circus, but I need to take a little break and this idea has been on the back burner for a while.
So please stay tuned for sprites, excerpts, and more!
Premise:
Celestial Crowns is a medieval fantasy/romance visual novel that features political drama, war, magic, and more! Set in a world where they worship the stars, play as the king or queen of the kingdom of [unnamed], newly crowned after your father has passed. With the kingdom on unsteady ground, the king of your neighboring kingdom [unnamed] has an offer you can’t ignore:
Marry him, or go to war.
(wasn’t supposed to rhyme oh well xD)
Features
Based on the current outline, I’m guestimating this will be a little over 100,000 words.
30,000 (estimate) words per each unique route. Every love interest has their own story that will greatly change and take you to new locations, and allow you to meet new people.
3 love interests
9 endings currently planned
Side sprite MC
Side character sprites
Optional 18+ scenes
Choose your personality: Your choices will add stats to the MCs personality. Mix and match different traits to shape different scenes and find your ending. (Players can choose choices based on 9 different traits:
Strengths: Confident, practical, witty
Flaws: Impulsive, naive, spoiled
Rule: Aggressive, strategic, gentle)
Endless replayability: As you shape your destiny choices are never locked out. Your choices will continue to unlock different facets of the MCs personality, offering a variety of directions for the story to twist and turn.

Customization
I’m currently playing around with how far I want to go with customization for the MC. So far you can change their body type and pronouns.
Conclusion
I’m very excited for this game and hoping it inspires me to dive back into the VN world. I’ve been gone for so long and I really need something fresh to give me that kick in the rear.
Hopefully you guys are just as excited as I am!
I will make the tumblr prettier as I create more art for this WIP.
Did you miss us? We're coming up to the end of the week, now, and we'd love to introduce our final character of Seraphim Slum.
👼 Meet Oriel, a knight who has fallen far...
Just in case you're out of the loop, we are taking part in the #SpooktoberVNJam and we've shared a character a day for the week. We're so excited for you guys to get to know these characters on a deeper level, and for our game to be experience by you all!
Hey, hey! Here's a sneak peek! The reference image for Kanatsune Ame's design in Entropic Float 2! Isn't it just awful? Isn't his fashion just the worst? Before you think he might have improved, consider that this scarf has three ends.
A vintage shoujo-inspired kinetic novel series about a 265-year-old therapist-by-day, dom-by-night vampire made entirely by one 5' tall trans guy with an unhealthy amount of dedication to this project!!
do you like...
Vampires?
perhaps...
Vampire doms?
blond ones, even?
Do you need a
Therapist
because your perception of mortality and the meaning of existence is
Fucked Up
beyond repair?
do you need an eccentric band of
Gay Little Freaks
to remind you that the pain of living is worthwhile?
Or maybe, just a
Fucked Up Little Cat?
THEN YOU SHOULD PLAY THIS GAME THAT I HAVE DEDICATED LITERAL YEARS OF MY LIFE TO WRITING, ILLUSTRATING, CASTING VOICE ACTORS FOR, PROGRAMMING, AND GENERALLY SLAVING OVER ALL BY MYSELF.
