Ethel Briggs is a shy, self-conscious girl in her final year of university. Though she should be working on her thesis about Romantic poetry, her well of inspiration has run dry. After a nasty break-up with her former girlfriend, Clementine, Ethel is feeling very blue - and it certainly doesn't help that she's spending the winter holidays in the depressingly drab village of Oxbury, while her family are off holidaying in sunny Australia.
Left to her own devices, Ethel struggles to finish her thesis while the cold, wintry wind blows outside and the days continue to get shorter and darker.
Staying inside proves to be unbearable, however, and Ethel escapes the confines of her family's home for a breath of fresh air. Going for a walk in the woods should be enough to invigorate her, and fill her with newfound passion for Romanticism.
That was Ethel's plan, at least - but she wasn't counting on meeting a mysterious, dark-haired beauty in the woods, who is much more than she seems.

Hi everyone,\r\n\r\nI\'m writing a quick post to let you know that I\'ve been hard at work these last couple of months on my cute yuri visual novel feat. a mermaid girl, Out of the Ocean. The VN is very close to being finished, and it\'s been fully coded and edited save for one ending out of a possible five.\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\nI\'m still waiting on one art asset and the finalised trailer, but other than that, the VN is done. I\'m hoping I\'ll be able to release it some time in December, but as we\'re nearing the end of the year and the winter sales will soon be upon us, I\'m not sure if I\'ll need to push back the estimated release date until January 2026.\r\n\r\nI did upload a shiny new demo of the visual novel to Steam, however, which is a little longer than the older demo. In addition to have a few extra scenes, the new demo is a little more polished in terms of visual effects and music placement, and there\'s an early \'bad ending\' you can unlock if you make certain choices.\r\n\r\n
\r\n\r\nI hope you enjoy the new demo, and I hope you\'re looking forward to the final release! I\'ll keep working hard to make the visual novel as polished as it can be!\r\n\r\nIf you\'re interested, you can check out the demo (and wislist the VN) on Steam here:\r\nhttps://store.steampowered.com/app/3616970/Out_of_the_Ocean\r\n\r\nAs always, thank you all for your support! It\'s appreciated!\r\n\r\n- ebi x
