Devlog #1: Structure & Release Model

Hey everyone!

I wanted to take a moment to discuss the structure of this game and how it will be released.

This visual novel is being developed almost entirely solo, from writing to composing the soundtrack, although some things, like background art, are commissioned from amazing freelancers. Aside from this, every line, choice, and scream echoing in the abyss still comes from one very tired but very passionate soul (hi!).

Because of this, the release will be made separately in four episodic chapters, rather than waiting years to release everything at once.

🧩 What does that mean?

• Chapter 1 will be the first official release, priced around $3 as the base game. I wanted to keep this game affordable, so expect frequent discounts during seasonal sales!
• Future chapters (2 to 4) will be released as DLCs, each priced at $1.

If you get Chapter 1, you’ll be able to continue your journey over time, at your own pace, and at a super affordable price.

Think of it like a weird infernal TV series, full of questionable choices, power dynamics, and probably some regrettable kissing. Each episode has its own emotional arc, but the full story unfolds across all four.

💬 Why this model?

I wanted to keep the game as accessible as possible. Not everyone can afford $15–$20 games, so I’m doing this in a way that lets you support the project little by little, if and when you can.

That said, making each chapter takes time. I’m working hard between freelance jobs and trying to stay alive in late capitalism™. There might be some waiting between chapters, but I’ll keep updating you with devlogs, sneak peeks, and character art directly from hell to keep the fire burning.

🖤 A note from me

As mentioned, this game is being built by one person, with a hundred feelings and maybe three working brain cells, so I really appreciate the patience. If you like what you played, wishlist it, share it, and spread the demonic word!

Thanks for stepping into this strange little story with me!
