introduction!

Hello all! This is the official introduction post to my Visual Novel/Dating sim!

This post will be progressively updated when I’m adding more characters/things, but currently I only have the demo figured out, some art, and one of the characters!

I am a beginner coder, so I will do my very best to try and code it accordingly…

I will try to update frequently with the progress I’m making!

some of you may know me as @olinblogin!!! I’ve written a popular lmk story on wattpad/ao3 called “Fate lies within”, as well as an ex-background artist for another dating sim (which I will not name for safety reasons)

My name is Olin, I use they/them pronouns, but occasionally as well bun/bunself!

Please be aware that I am a one-person team, so it’s gonna be difficult for me to pump out backgrounds, characters, etc… but I’m certainly going to do my best!

Here are some showcases of concepts for this game!

please be aware that all of this art was done during my school hours and likely will not be the same in the demo/final game!!!

BOUNDARIES/RULES/WARNINGS

Boundaries;

I do not currently plan on making any sexual content in this dating sim, as I find it pretty unnecessary.

There will absolutely be NO r@pe/SA in this story, it’s so common in the VN/Dating Sim community that it’s genuinely uncomfortable and glamorized, sexualized, and defended.

I don’t mind people sending in asks that are genuine criticism! As long as you aren’t being rude or sending hate/harassment I will gladly answer you!

I’m okay with people asking suggestive things in my asks! Just be aware that it probably be put in the game.

Warnings that will be put in the game;

this game will contain: graphic violence, body horror, mild language, stalking, possible yandere tendencies, etc. (still adding to this)

Rules;

Please do not send ANY hate or harassment to people I interact with, this includes in askbox submissions! If you are going to come into my askbox and give me genuine critiques, please be respectful while doing so! I’m sure you all know that but I still wanna reinforce that :3

You’re allowed to have headcanons of my characters! All I ask is that you don’t mischaracterize them in terrible ways (ie, making them an “UwU-softyboy, or turning them into r@pist, or changing their sexualities for your own benefit)

Characters

Riley Woodings (the hermit in the bunker)

Harrison Vern (aka Burger Boy)

I currently don’t have any other characters set in stone just yet, THEURE still in their concept stage!

There will be a various amount of different routes you can take in the game, here’s how it will go.

A boring day - just a setup for the storyline

Call of the Forest - go to the forest, stay home, venture around town

Burger Boy - achievable by going through town and choosing to go into the burger restaurant

Beyond the Surface - If you decide to go up to the bunker

Don’t go there - Going to the mansion

Whispers of Wisdom - Go to the forest, but immediately turn back

Beyond the Horizon - don’t go through any of the character routes, just stroll through the forest

Together for a day - going on a date/outing with the character of your choice

What’s over there? - Go to the well, but don’t look inside of it

endings/ending routes (incomplete)

Bad ending - you die

neutral ending - you still have the possibility to get a good/bad ending

good ending - you can still play on

Stay Hidden - Hide hide from [no name yet] in the mansion (neutral, choose carefully)

Into the Depths - Looking into the well will get you pushed in and you will die (bad ending)

Chopping block - Getting caught by [no name yet] on the hiding sequence (bad ending)

Run Rabbit - after hiding you run out of the mansion (neutral/good ending)

Breaking and entering - go into Riley’s bunker without knocking first, how rude. (Bad ending)

there will be plenty more to come but this is just the stuff I have right now!!!

Love you all(/p)

Sup guys!

Recently I’ve made a new blog to aid in sorting my Visual Novel/Dating Sim I’ve been working on coming up with for the last couple years!

The blog name is called @l0veoftomorrow where I’ll be trying to update it frequently!

And no this does not mean I’m not updating my LMK story anymore—

I’ve had the idea of this for a good while now and decided to put it into play!

If you’re interested in that stuff go check it out, I only have the introduction/information post up so far.. but there’s plenty to come with updates!

Love you lots

-Olin

I still don't trust Stella. But I also can't trust myself. 'Cause I am jealous. I have fallen for Min Ho. A little bit. Or a lot.

my favourite character is coming back!!!!!

[alaia777]

pre-relationship! sae who saw you sitting on the curb, looking exhausted with your bag open. thinking you were asking for money, he dropped some bills in. you gave him a confused look, but he just shrugged and walked off.

pre-relationship! rin who always trailed two steps behind you at school, looking like he was on a secret mission to protect you from absolutely nothing. one time, someone tried to ask you a question, and rin stepped forward, cleared his throat, and said, “she’s busy.” you weren’t even talking to anyone.

pre-relationship! bachira who kept seeing you on his couch, thinking you were just another one of his imagination’s weird visitors. he’d wave at you, go about his day—until you started stealing his snacks. that’s when he realized you were real, and his mom was tutoring you in art.

pre-relationship! barou had this odd habit of pulling out a handkerchief whenever you sniffled from the cold, pressing it to your nose and saying, “blow.” the first time you were weirded out, but after a while, you just gave up and let him do it.

pre-relationship! nagi who would always destroy you in games, not knowing it was you he was playing against. the next day, he’d sit next to you in class, completely unaware that a few hours ago he was trash-talking you, and you were doing the same back. you’d share a look, but neither of you would say a word.

pre-relationship! isagi who tried so hard to act cool around you, but his ears always betrayed him, going red every time you acknowledged him. one day, in a nervous attempt to be smooth, he accidentally called you “your majesty.” after a beat of awkward silence, he just casually walked away like nothing happened—pretending he didn’t just say that.

Zayne is for the ones who want to be cared for

Zayne is for the broken- a hammer taken to the porcelain of your body and psychic by the people around you, whether intentionally or not, your pieces are laid out on the floor to be crushed further under the shoes of those who do not notice.

Zayne is for the ones drawn to him due to attachment. Did you really think he was so cold? His rigid exterior is what attracted you in the first place- pulling you in for the familiar, the withdrawn and distant personality being what you crave, what you remember- but then he's cleaning your apartment while you sleep. He's buying you treats unprompted. He's offering you rides out of his way. He's pressing tired hands into the knots of your muscles for hours if that's what you need.

Zayne is for the ones who will cry, not knowing why. Not knowing that it's because of him. Because of his gentleness, his kindness, his love. Broken on the floor alone somewhere, crying not because you feel alone without him with you right now, but because you felt alone before he came. Because you don't know why someone would treat you the way that he does. Because you don't know why you deserve it.

And Zayne is for the ones who so badly want every single thing that he does for them, while also still knowing, believing, that they're unworthy of what they so desperately want from him. What they receive from him. And why are you unworthy? Why do you decide what you deserve, and not the person who has decided you are worthy of the love he gives you?

Zayne is for the broken. The puzzles missing pieces under couches that won't move until it's time to leave a life behind. Suddenly. Permanantly.

Zayne is for the ones who want to be cared for.
