Beneath the Bleeding Moon has been released!Hello everybody,
I'm making an announcement to let you know that Beneath the Bleeding Moon has (finally) been released!

I first showed off the demo of this VN 2 years ago, so getting it across the finish line was a bit of a challenge haha ;; I persevered, however, and now the full visual novel is out!
Bleeding Moon is a historical boys' love visual novel set in Japan. Follow Haru, a cross-dressing young man, as he goes on a journey with the devious thief, Kishou, to break an ancient curse.
Bleeding Moon is a little different from my usual visual novels in that it's less of a character drama and more of an adventure story. There's quite a few fight scenes, and it's (generally) light-hearted in tone, though there are a few darker moments.

There's also an r18 patch for anybody who wants it, which adds about 20k more words to the story and several animated(!!!) r18 scenes. This is the first time I've added animated adult CGs into any of my VNs, so I hope people enjoy it.
You can check the VN out here if you're curious:

Thank you for all of your support over the years! It's appreciated! I'll keep working hard to make more visual novels that people will enjoy!

Fujibayashi Reo is your regular high school student. He would prefer to sleep in than go to class, and he cares more about football than he does about studying for his upcoming exams. He’s not the best student, and he’s always getting into arguments with the exacting student council president, Sugawara Yuuma.
Reo can’t stand Yuuma, and the feeling is mutual. Both boys hate one another — but when Reo discovers that Yuuma has been crossdressing and working at a maid café on the sly, Reo gets an idea.
Reo decides to blackmail the upstanding student council president into aiding him with the seduction of his childhood friend, Chinami. With Yuuma’s help, Reo’s sure that he’ll be able to confess his feelings to Chinami and melt her heart…
So why has Reo started to feel so abashed when he’s with Yuuma? What in the world is going on?!
