A Shot in the Dark Character Spotlight

We will be doing weekly character spotlights from A Shot in the Dark in preparation for our upcoming Steam release! This week, we are excited to introduce Ashley.

Introducing Ashley

Back in her college days, Ashley was the heart and soul of the Zeta Omega Chi sorority. With her partying college days now a distant memory and her own daughter now starting college, Ashley yearns to relive the thrill of her youth. Ashley finds joy in guiding our young protagonist, becoming a source of dating advice, a confidante, and potentially a not-so-secret crush.
Ashley's flirtatious turns of phrase and provocative clothing might be what initially grabs your attention, but it's her genuine care and motherly affection that will eventually steal your heart. This seductive MILF will tempt and tease you with a slow-burn romance.
Likes: red wine, classic rock, candlelit dinners Dislikes: instant coffee, modesty, being told she's "too old for that" Quote: "That's ancient history now! Best to live in the present, don't you agree?"

A Shot in the Dark is a choice-driven adult visual novel about new possibilities and dark secrets. Navigate romance, relationships, and rivalry as a young man during your first semester of college. Can you make a fresh start, or will the past catch up with you?



A mystery to solve
You play as a young man hoping to make a fresh start in college. But when a sorority girl goes missing, any hope of a normal semester disappears along with her. Will you be able to solve the mystery of her disappearance before it's too late?



Your choices matter
Choose wisely. There is no right or wrong. There is no one "happy path." From the first chapter to the last, your decisions can have permanent impacts on the story. Many branching story paths—each with its own joys and tragedies—will eventually lead you to one of the multiple endings.



Compelling characters
Ten main love interests represent a variety of body types, personalities, and skin tones. Your choices will decide how each relationship progresses and whether lewd scenes are revealed. Additional romanceable characters will be included based on Patron polling and requests.



Transparent gameplay
The mystery is in the story, not the gameplay. You will always know what aspects of the game your choices affect, for optimal replayability. No grinding or pointless minigames to stretch out the content. Every mechanic is designed to move the story forward, not to slow it down.
