Hello world!
This is Throgolin, the creator of Sci-Fi psychological Visual Novel "Thoughtless". After a bit of preparation, I'm finally able to reveal the demo for my game to the world. This demo includes the first two chapters of the full game and takes around an hour to complete.
What is "Thoughtless"?
It's an English-Original Visual Novel set in a dystopic future where the aliens have invaded the Earth. Hipher, one of the many people who locked themselves in their houses after the Thoughtless arrived, spends his time on his PC, immersed in his online games, when he gets a message. It's his ex. But then, she suddenly stops answering. Did something happen to her? Will Hipher find the strength to check for himself?
Features
- Peculiar aesthetic - One of my main goals with the game was making an aesthetically pleasing and interesting experience. The city of Las Menas is dreary, the characters lack expressions, but all of it is expressed in a distorted water-color
- Haunting score - the OST for the game was made with both minimalism and strangeness in mind, creating a range of peculiar tracks that go from lo-fi pianos to a disturbing drum 'n' bass
- Surrealistic writing - Hipher, much like us, lives in a world dominated by inconsequential interactions, online posts and memes. Can he really be the hero of this melancholic story?
- A psychological test - The choices in Thoughtless scan the player much like a personality test. What is *your* view of the world? How do *you* approach such a situation? Whatever you'll chose will reveal the outcome of Hipher's adventure
I wish you'll enjoy the demo, and hope seeing you when the game gets a full release!
