A downloadable game

GAME IS NOT PLAYABLE! Please stop adding them to collections for streams u will be disappointed. Enjoy the screenshots we added tho!

So far we only have an explorable map with no npc interactions. 2 of the rooms have dialogues  -- please dont go to the end of the map (far right) until you're sure that you want to exit :)

TW for hints at suicide, bullying, slight eye strain.

'Your classmate has gone missing, and you take on the duty of investigating their absence. Some clues hint to not-so-pleasant possibilities. What happens when you find out that you were one of the reasons?'

Inspired by OMORI, Erased, and Project Kat -  Paper Lily Prologue.

Made as a college project based off a poem, by a 3-person group. (Backgrounds + map plans: @menmaarts on twt, programmer: Arc, director/character and map art: Gumfizz)

Does anyone know if a comic of this came out! I've been scouring the Internet for a half hour for ANYTHING of this game, I'm so invested and have only seen the photos!

Even a playthrough someone did is enough for me :') if anyone could help I would appreciate it so much<3

there's no playthrough i'm so so sorry!! honestly this was just a silly school project completed in 6-ish weeks when I was 16 so it's very unfinished ;-;

AAAA i didnt expect anyone *actually* wanting the comic !! I've been unfortunately drowning in uni work so I haven't been able to work on it yet, at this point it may take me a good few years to get anything out ;w; thank you so much for the comment it really made my day !! <333

I’m glad you liked it! It was a school project so I’ve moved on from it but I might make a small comic of it over the summer if you’re interested (i’ll update on this in the devlogs) ! My final project is kind of similar to this so you might like it :) we’re planning on publishing it around the end of this week or next week

OMG I JUST SAW THIS >< i see, looking forward to the comic then! will keep up with devlogs! also very excited for the final project, will be checking it out for sure, thank you so much !

Wow, this looks really awesome, hope it's still getting worked on!

We stopped production last year </3 but I'm thinking of starting a comic of it over the summer with a better storyline!

Damn, that's sad to hear. I'd definetly read the comic, perhaps one day you'll be able to adapt the visual novel too.

My final project is also (kinda) a visual novel too!!! It will be out around the end of this week or next week for playtesting if you’re still interested :3

hi, may I ask a question? Can the game screen size change to windowed? I wonder if it works since fullscreen is kinda inconvenient srry:[

Sorry for the inconvenience! Unfortunately I’m not sure since I’m the artist BUT!!! It’s very unplayable either way so I recommend keeping an eye out for the light novel/comic if you’re still interested in the story :) I’ll start updating it soon ! 

I’ve read the manga and can tell u what happens ;>

LMAOOO not the manga 😭

Hi i downloaded it but it keeps popping up with "windows protected your pc"

there should be a button under it that says 'read/learn more', once you press it, a button should pop up at the bottom that says 'run anyway'!i hope that helps :) it happens sometimes when you download from itch lol
