Hello everyone \o/ Im writing a quick post to let you know that Ive released a shiny VN, My Confounding Cat is Criminally Cute (thats such an extra title lmao)
Criminal Cat is a relatively short BL VN without any choices or branches. It follows a grumpy wizard, Aster, who lives a reclusive life deep in the woods and brews potions to get by. Aster is taciturn by nature, and he swears he isnt lonely! Hes perfectly fine keeping to himself, thank you very much Until a black cat tumbles down his chimney one day, throwing his whole life into disarray! After taking the black cat in, Aster soon discovers this clumsy kitten is no ordinary feline. He is, in actuality, a young man called Blaise, who has been cursed by a witch to assume the form of a cat during the sunlight hours but why? What did Blaise do to get cursed, and can Aster help him? Itll be a huge pain, but Aster will (reluctantly) do his best. Hell never be able to get rid of Blaise if he cant, and all Aster really wants is a quiet life. Its not like hes going to fall for his catboy companion or anything, right? Right?
Criminal Cat is a pretty sweet and light story, and it doesnt contain any explicit content. The steamiest thing youll find here are a handful of kiss scenes (well, how else are you supposed to break a curse?!) The adorable art is by Ekkoberry, who handled the character sprites, CGs, and the UI! I usually work with multiple artists per project, so having one person manage all of the art-related tasks was a pretty new experience for me. Im really happy with how this VN turned out: I think it looks very cute and cohesive! Please consider checking the VN out if you're interested! It's not that long, so it's pretty cheap! And, as always, feel free to leave a review to let me know what you think. Reviews are very helpful for small developers such as myself, as they help push my games to more people and can boost discoverability! https://store.steampowered.com/app/2685600 - ebi x

Hello everyone! I'm writing a quick announcement to let you know that my latest VN, Rain and the Wolf, has been released!
Rain and the Wolf is a BL visual novel inspired by Little Red Riding Hood. The story follows Rain, an aloof young man, who works as an apothecary with his father. One day, Rain's father sends him into the woods to gather some herbs, but Rain finds himself entrenched in his childhood memories and wanders off the beaten path. While Rain is resting by the riverside, a sudden storm blows by and he gets caught up in a downpour. In the confusion, he falls and sprains his ankle, and passes out from the pain as the hour wears on. It seems inevitable that Rain will become food for the hungry wolves that prowl the woods, but fortune smiles on him. A passing young man, Zero, finds him, and takes Rain back to his home to recuperate but there's a catch. Zero is no ordinary man. He's a werewolf, and his designs on Rain might not be as innocent as it first seems.
This is a visual novel with choices and branches. Guide Rain, and try to unravel the truth behind Zero without being chomped on. Though (generally) good-natured, it's possible to antagonise Zero, which can result in a couple of pretty grim endings (including one Very Bad Ending). It's easy enough to avoid the bad endings if you don't want to see them, however. If you only read the good endings this story is relatively sweet and light. I would advise people to read the content warnings on the game's page carefully before deciding if they want to check it out, however, as I don't want to upset people by subjecting them to any content they might find upsetting. You can purchase the game on Steam here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3016500/Rain_and_the_Wolf/ I've also put my other BL VNs on sale to celebrate the release of this VN, yay You can check the sale out here if you're interested! - ebi x

Hi everyone, Just writing a really quick devlog to let you know I've uploaded a new build of In Fair Spirits that fixes a handful of typos which were pointed out to me by eagle-eyed readers, plus it fixes a minor bug with Lisbeth's blinking animation. I hope you enjoy it, and feel free to let me know if you find anything else strange in the game! - ebi x

Hello everybody! I'm writing a quick devlog to let you know that my most recent visual novel, My Lovey-Dovey Demon, has been released! Yay \o/
You can check the VN out here, if you're interested: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2183430 MLDD is a VN that's been in process for quite a while. I wrote the script back in 2021, and it took me a while to piece the whole story together. The Steam store page was up for over a year before I finally released it, so some people have been waiting on this one for a while haha It might have taken me some time to finish this project, but I tried to use this time to ensure that it's as polished as possible! The main artist, Kimoreen, did a great job with the character artwork, and all of the cute chibi cut-ins by Konayachi are adorable! I also had some help from Harmonie of Asminae Games, who created Reborn a Zombie (available for free on Steam), to do some work on the various visual effects in this VN. That means this VN has some fun effects during the CGs which I've not added to any of my previous projects such as light rays, animated particles, and moving fog. I think it helps the VN pop, and it brings the story to life!
Speaking of the story, it's a pretty cute, light affair which takes a lot of cues from typical BxG slice of life VNs. It's quite chill and relaxed, and there isn't much in the way of conflict (which might be a bit of a rarity coming from me lol), so this should be a good read if you're looking for something cosy. It's pretty similar to The Language of Love in that it's a wholesome BxG romance story, though it has a bit more of a comedy focus like My Dear Prince. Everybody put a lot of effort into this VN, so I hope you all enjoy it! As always, let me know if you find any typos or bugs in the VN, and I'll try to fix them up within a reasonable timeframe! - ebi x

Hello everybody! It's ebi \o/ I'm just writing a quick announcement to let you all know that I'll be releasing my cute romance VN, My Lovey-Dovey Demon, on Steam in a few weeks!
My Lovey-Dovey Demon is a cute story set in modern day Japan with a young male protagonist, Taiki. Taiki is spending the summer vacation at his grandparents' home in the countryside alongside his younger siblings. During his vacation Taiki's sister, the naughty Nene, sneaks into their grandfather's study and starts rifling through his books about the occult. Taiki tries to stop her, and in the chaos, he inadvertently ends up summoning a demon from another realm. This demon has horns, wings, and a tail, dresses in black, sharp teeth... And she also happens to be utterly adorable! This demon, Elisabeth, is immediately attracted to Taiki. Now, he's stuck being buddy-buddy with a cute demon girl, when all he wanted was a bit of rest and relaxation. What's a guy to do?!
My Lovey-Dovey Demon is a romance VN with a male protagonist, which feels pretty rare coming from me. I think the last time I wrote a cute BxG romance story was The Language of Love, so I hope people who liked LoL will be similarly charmed by this story! The premise of My Lovey-Dovey Demon pretty goofy and it doesn't take itself too seriously. Tonally, it's pretty similar to My Dear Prince or Strawberry Vinegar, so anybody who enjoyed those stories might like this. The VN is more or less completed, and its build has been approved by Steam. I'm still waiting on a few more assets, but I should be able to release it in early January. I hope you'll enjoy My Lovey-Dovey Demon when it comes out! If you want tbe notified when it releases, you can either follow my Steam developer page or wishlist the game here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2183430 - ebi x
