Developer's Note
Hi everyone! This is the very first visual novel I have ever made. I created this just for fun and to challenge myself to learn the engine during the game jam. Because it's my first game, there might be a few small mistakes here and there, but I poured a lot of love into it. I hope you enjoy this tiny experience!

A bittersweet and mysterious story! You've managed to capture a very somber mood through the sunset lighting and music choice. It fits the writing well! The use of VRoid Studio for your character let you capture a lot of emotion through facial expression.
I enjoyed that while we got small glimpses of what the world might look like, you never specifically spelled out what has happened or how the characters have come to be in their situation.
Great work!
Thank you! I'm really glad you liked it! :)
