Scenes from the Heart is a Visual Novel about a mature but lonely boy (you) who struggles to connect with others due to his superiority complex. His life changes when he befriends Chisaki Namichi, who faces bullying for her unique eye color at elementary school. Together, they later discover Konaka Motomi, a new transferred classmate with her own quirks.

As they bond, Konaka introduces improvisation theater to Chisaki and you. Inspired, Chisaki initiates her long dream of a visual novel development project, involving the player and Konaka. Despite initial conflicts during the process, they succeed and win an award for their demo, as a menacing shadow is watching over them, hinting at challenges ahead...

The story will be split into two parts:

Part 1 is more like a prologue to introduce the starting point and the main cast.

Part 2 will be diving deeper into everyday life and branching the story at a certain point.

Scenes from the Heart is also my first game and Visual Novel ever, so naturally there will be some flaws included most likely, but those I aim to fix on Part 2, which I planned to be developed later if (and when) its Kickstarter-campaign succeeds. ]

1.1.0 Konaka's Patch Notes

Yahhoo, everybody! It\'s your favourite Ecchi artist, Melon-sensei (Konaka), here again with the new patch notes! (^^*)/

How is everyone doing?

Autumn/Fall has begun to display its colours quietly since the last patch notes. Be careful in northern countries, since it appears to be colder or cooler than elsewhere, so bring a scarf with you when going outside. \\\\(*^- ^*)

Anyway! According to Zamius, this should be our game\'s LAST patch/update, as he has now implemented the new features that I requested about in the last patch notes, and no new content should be left on the \"bucket list\". (><)

As usual, let\'s go through the new changes together:

  • MORE English Grammar Fixing!! (Pls, no more! T_T)\n(I can\'t believe somebody STILL found more grammar errors in English dialogue... Maybe NOW we should be clear?)

    [/*]
  • NEW features added: 2 image galleries & OST music player\n(Personally, I\'m SOOOO hyped about these ones since you all wanted them in the game as well! Glad to be on the same team, tehe~ () )

    [/*]
  • UPDATED the main menu\'s last BG (Park of Fame)\n(As more streamers have covered the game, the park gets more crowded. I\'m SO happy that you all seem to be enjoying our story and are eagerly waiting to see how the story evolves! Thank you for your support! It means a lot to us all! <3 ( ) )

    [/*]

So that\'s it. There will be no more fresh content for the game, so let us build up the hypetowards the formal launch date of October 24th, shortly after the Steam Next Fest!

Oh! Almost forgot! ( -)-

The game will soon be getting a PHYSICAL COPY as well, thanks to WetheIndies\'s new service for all the indie game devs around the globe! (oo)/

1.0.1 Konaka&#039;s Patch Notes

Yahhoo, everybody! It\'s your favorite ecchi-artist, Melon-sensei (Konaka), here with the first patch notes!

()*:

How\'s everyone\'s summer been? I\'ve been busy helping Zamius with his content creation and we published two new videos out already! YAY! (^^)

Also, Chisaki\'s been helping him with our game\'s dialogue since Zamius can be a bit clumsy with his English grammar from time to time. Not saying he would be bad at it, of course! It\'s always a good thing to rely on your friends\' help, after all. ( ^u^)/

Oh, my bad! I delved into rumbling about random things instead of talking about the main thing: The patch notes! Tehe~ (-)

Ahem! Here they are:

  • More dialogue fixing on all languages.

    (Maybe I wasn\'t talking random rubbish, after all? Oh well! (^w^) )

    [/*]
  • Added new main menu BGs at the end (one after reaching Kakuza Zero\'s flashback & the other after watching the Ending).

    (I also helped Zamius with these, hehe! Let him know, btw, if you all would be interested in a photo gallery where all the game\'s BGs would be displayed! I think he was looking into that stuff along with some kind of music player for all the BGMs. Wow! )

    [/*]
  • Enhanced Konaka\'s \"romantic\" moment in her flashback.

    (I felt like I wasn\'t clear enough with my intentions and situation\'s the atmosphere, so I asked Zamius to let me fix that for him. Luckily he agreed, so NOW you shouldn\'t be unclear anymore what was going on there! He-hee~! (`) )

    [/*]
  • Added buttons for two videos: \"First Streamers\' Compilation\" and \"The Main Cast\'s Commentary\".

    (-sigh- These two videos took FOREVER to complete! I\'m sooooo relieved that they are at last done, never again please... .( ) Regardless, they turned out quite nice, in my opinion! Please take a look at them and share to at least 1 friend, so I won\'t feel we did all that work with Zamius for nothing! I can give you even my cute Catto-plushie drawing if you want something in return, tehe~

    (^^*)/ )

    [/*]
  • Adjusted the main menu BGM\'s volume.

    (I noticed how a lot of you guys lowered the music volume in settings immidiately when opening the game and that causing the other BGMs sound quite low, including the OP. Zamius decided to fix that after I told him about my observations during the compilation video\'s footage hunting, so from now on your ears should be fine when opening the game. \\\\ () )

    [/*]
  • Hidden the mysterious \"Deutsch\" language option from the list.

    (While Zamius had been discussing the next language \"expansion\" (German) with AnnieverseVT, he forgot to hide the language option from the list at some point, so some of you may have been confused by this sight. But don\'t worry! It\'s apparently coming in the next patch! \n \"Mistakes are gifts.\" as we\'ve been taught in improv, meaning they aren\'t the end of the world and in an improv skit, you should rather embrace it and learn to forgive yourself and take it as a new plot twist for the skit. (^^) )

    [/*]
  • Note: Mentioned Kickstarter-campaign is still being research and not yet out!

    (We\'ve been so busy with other stuff that we haven\'t been able to research that stuff yet, but will do next on the bucket list. We will naturally let you guys know individually when the campaign is finally out! (;) )

    [/*]

Well, I think that\'s about all of it for now. Thanks for reading this far my first patch notes and we\'ll see again in the next patch notes!

Go break a leg with your studies or work or creative projects, I believe in you! You can do it!

Demo Content Update

The demo version has been updated with 2 new extra scenes to give a bit more context of the upcoming REAL story and why Chisaki's background story is relevant to the main events.

The full game's progress is going smoothly and needs the voice lines (VO) from Chisaki and Konaka's voice actresses anymore to be ready for the first beta round for content creators. So, not for long anymore! (^^)
