Yuri VN The Fairy's Secret released on Steam

Hi everyone! \o/

Im writing this announcement to let you know that I've recently released a sequel to my cute yuri VN The Fairys Song called The Fairys Secret! The Fairys Secret is a linear visual novel set in modern day England which centres around the relationship between a grumpy goth and her medieval knight girlfriend.

The story is of a similar length to the original Fairys Song and it has a similar tone. Its quite a light-hearted story, for the most part, though there are some fantasy elements and a few moments of intrigue and mystery. The VN is available in both English and Simplified Chinese, and a German translation might happen in the future if the sales are strong enough to support it.



If you enjoyed The Fairys Song and wanted to read more about Marnies adventures, then you should enjoy The Fairys Secret!

You can buy it on Steam here, if youre interested:
https://store.steampowered.com/app/1994760/The_Fairys_Secret

And Ive also put The Fairys Song on sale on Steam to celebrate the occasion, along with a few of my other cute yuri VNs. You can check out my bundle of yuri VNs here:
https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/26031/EbiHime_Yuri_Bundle/

Alternatively,, you can buy The Fairys Song and The Fairys Secret bundled together for an even deeper discount than youd get buying them individually here:
https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/30485/The_Fairys_Bundle/

I hope youll enjoy reading more about Marnies time in Fenchapel with her cute knight girlfriend!

Yuri VN Dreamy Planet released on Steam

Hi, everyone! I'm writing a post to let you know that my newest yuri VN, Dreamy Planet, has been released on Steam!



Dreamy Planet follows a troubled young woman called Haruka, who feels trapped in a loveless relationship with a man her parents introduced to her. Haruka is determined to make this relationship work for her parents sake, who are desperate for grandchildren, even if it kills her. Secretly, however, Haruka harbours feelings towards her childhood friend, Shiina, whom she hasnt seen in several years.

Eventually, Shiina gets back into contact with Haruka, and suggests that the pair catch up at one of their favourite childhood haunts: the theme park Dreamy Planet, which has since closed down and fallen into ruin.

Will Shiina and Harukas relationship meet a similar fate, or will old feelings between them be rekindled?

Dreamy Planet is quite sombre in tone, but it's not all doom and gloom. It presents the possibility of a happy ending, and the leads are afforded a degree of hope.



It's a quiet, ambient sort of experience, which some people might find relaxing. I hope you enjoy it, if you do decide to check it out!

Salome's Kiss released on Steam

Hi everyone!

Im just writing a post to let you know that my newest yuri visual novel, Salomes Kiss, has been released on Steam!

Salome is a kinetic VN which shares a few similarities to Emmeline Burns, in that it's a historical story with lesbians, and some very pretty art. Like Emmeline, Salome is also written in quite a mannered way, which some people might find appealing.

Unlike Emmeline, however, Salome is quite a grim story. It touches on some dark subject matter (like sexual abuse and abortion), and it doesn't have a happy ending. If you like sweet, light yuri stories, you might want to give it a miss.

If you like the idea of a more unsettling yuri story, however, it might be to your liking!

You can check it out hre, if so inclined:

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1779960/Salomes_Kiss/

And I hope you enjoy it, if you do choose to take a look at it!

The Fairy's Song released on Steam

Hi everyone,

I'm posting to let you know that my newest yuri VN, The Fairy's Song, has been released on Steam!

It's a cute fantasy story set in England, about a goth girl who meets a female knight born many centuries ago. Together, they explore the countryside, learn about an ancient curse, and slowly fall in love.

It has some similar themes and plot beats to Emmeline Burns, so if you enjoyed one, you might enjoy the other.

The Fairy's Song is $9.99, but right now there's a 10% discount!

Rituals in the Dark released on Steam

Hi everyone,

Just letting you know, my latest yuri VN has been released on Steam!
It's called Rituals in the Dark. It has some mild horror elements (though it's more atmospheric than downright creepy), and it's set in modern-day England.
If you liked Emmeline Burns, you might enjoy this story, too.

If you're interested, please consider checking it out!

A Winter's Daydream released on Steam!

Hi everyone,

I thought I'd let you know that my latest visual novel, A Winter's Daydream, has been released on Steam!
A Winter's Daydream is a cute story about an elderly grandmother who magically transforms into a young girl! Wacky anime hijinks ensue.

A Winter's Daydream is a relatively light-hearted story, but it has some more serious elements akin to those found in Emmeline Burns. Though A Winter's Daydream does not contain any GxG content, if you enjoyed one of these stories, you may enjoy the other.

A Winter's Daydream can be found here, for anybody who might be curious:

AIdol released on Steam

Hello everyone,

I'm pleased to announce that my newest VN, AIdol, has been released on Steam! You can take a look at it here:

https://store.steampowered.com/app/829210/AIdol/

It's rather cute and light-hearted in tone, and its interface is very pink. It's a mostly comedic slice of life story with some fluffy friendship scenes, so it isn't too similar tonally to Emmeline. However, if you liked my writing in Emmeline you might be interested in this story, too.

I hope you check it out!

Blackberry Honey now on Steam!

Hi everyone,

Just letting you know, my newest yuri visual novel, Blackberry Honey, has been released on Steam!

It's set in the Victorian era, and has a vaguely similar aesthetic to Emmeline Burns. It also has more mature content, a happy ending, and it's quite a bit longer than Emmy is.

You can check it out here, if you want! It's $12.99, with a 10% launch discount!

New build

Hi guys,

Uploaded a new build of this VN to fix a few more typos that were pointed out to me, and to swap out a couple more of the low quality SFX.

This should be the last update I make on this VN, unless there's something catastrophically wrong with this build.

New build

Hi guys,

I know it's been more than a year since I released this VN, but I released a new build of this VN today.
The artist, Selly, has improved a lot since she did the art for this VN (especially the backgrounds), so she decided to redo a few art pieces.
The old sound effects were also bothering me, so I updated a few of the SFX so they're cleaner and of higher quality.
I hope you enjoy it!

As the VN has been translated into a couple of languages, I'm not sure if this update will break any of the patches or not. As I only swapped out a few files, however, this (hopefully) shouldn't be an issue!

Lily of the Valley release

Hi guys,

I've released a new visual novel on Steam with artwork by SillySelly (the same artist as Emmeline Burns). If you're fond of her artwork, please check it out!

http://store.steampowered.com/app/628460/Lily_of_the_Valley/

Lily is a short, gloomy story about a young man who meets a mysterious young girl. Set in Wales, its main themes are: the importance of family, the inevitability of death, and the deliciousness of doughnuts.

Given it's a short VN, it can be purchased for $2.99. I hope you enjoy it!

As a side note: the artist for Emmeline has improved in the last two years, so she decided to redo a bunch of the old art assets for Emmeline. I'm going to upload a new build of Emmeline in a week or so with prettier, updated art for you to enjoy!

AIdol on Kickstarter + Greenlight

Hi everyone,

During the last few months of 2016 (around October-December) I was working on a visual novel script for another group. This VN is called AIdol. It's a cute visual novel standing at around 70k, about a gloomy girl called Hana who gets enlisted to help her favorite virtual reality idol, Aiko, find her missing programmer.

AIdol features choices, multiple branches/endings, and a really huge cast of characters. There’s a lot of relationship drama, plot twists, and lots of cute idols!

If you’re interested, you can back the visual novel on Kickstarter, and you can also vote for it on Steam Greenlight!

Thank you!

New VNs on Greenlight

Hi everyone,

I have a couple of new VNs on Greenlight! (I'm sure everybody is tired of me spamming the announce function for this VN for these kinds of 'updates' haha ;;)

One of the VNs, Windswept Night, is a free GxG VN which was made for the 2016 YuriJam, much like Emmy was made for the 2015 one. Windswept has some vaguely similar themes, but it's almost twice the length of Emmy and actually includes choices(!!!) If you're interested, please check it out!
http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=834750331

And the other VN... is nothing like Emmy at all. It's a commercial BxG VN fearturing a cute(?) catgirl heroine, and is some strange mixture of fanservice and psychological horror. If you're interested in potentially-Lovecraftian catgirls, you can vote for it here!

Ebi-hime bundle

Hi guys!

I thought I would let you know, if you had not seen already, all of my commercial VNs are on sale this week until October 3rd - and they have all also been bundled together, so you can buy them for a 62% overall discount.

Strawberry Vinegar, Empty Horizons, and Asphyxia all use the same artist as Emmy (and Empty Horizons uses the same composer), so if you like my stories for the art then this might interest you!

The bundle can be found here:
http://store.steampowered.com/bundle/1497/

After doing some quick calculations, I also discovered there is about 775k worth of text in this bundle, so I think it is pretty good value for money.

Thank you!

This World Unknown Released

My newest visual novel, This World Unknown, has been released on Steam!
'Newest' might not be the right turn of phrase, though, since I was working on it for a long time...

This World Unknown is a long fantasy otome game. The writing style and content is rather dissimilar from Emmy, and the art is also quite different... but if you like my writing, you might find it interesting.

It also allows more choice than Emmy does, and has an actual branching storyline with four different paths.

You can check it out here, if you are so inclined:

This World Unknown on Steam Greenlight

Hi u///u

I have a brand new VN on Steam Greenlight, that you can vote for if you are so interested! It's a very long VN that took about 2 years to make, and the process was somewhat hellish... But I survived, and it's all finished now! I just need your help!

Given it's a multi-route otome (GxB) VN, it's quite different from Emmeline Burns... But, if you like my writing style, you might like this one too.

If you're interested, you can vote
here , or check out the demo here or here!

Empty Horizons released

Hi guys,

I thought I would let you know, my latest VN, Empty Horizons, has been released on Steam! It was made by the same team who put Emmy together (same writer/artist/composer), though tonally Emmy and EH are not that similar... Emmy has this deliberate archaic-ness to the prose, while in EH it's a bit more modern. Even so, if you like the writing, art, and music in Emmy, then you might find Empty Horizons to your liking.

Also, it has achievements and trading cards, because I know people care about those.

Empty Horizons - New VN on Greenlight

Hi, everyone!

I recently finished working on another relatively short VN called Empty Horizons. It's not overly similar to Emmy, given it is GxB, not GxG, and the writing style is a bit different - but the art was done by the same artist (SillySelly), the writing was done by the same writer (me, Ebi-Hime), and the music was done by the same composer (TyberAlyx).

If you're fond of the art, writing, and/or music in Emmy, please consider voting for it!

There is also some additional information about the VN
here, if anybody is interested.


Thank you! <3

Update

Hi, guys. I just uploaded a new build of Emmy, which should have a few more fixed typos (thanks to Chazz the Elder and notonion for spotting them for me!) There's nothing else in the update other than fixed typos, so don't get too excited.

If you have any issues with launching the VN after the update, please tell me. And, if you find any more typos, feel free to tell me that, too!

[ 2016-02-29 20:36:29 CET ] [ Original post ]

Update

I released an update that fixes a few spelling errors. Everything else is the same, though.
Thank you to Chazz the Elder for catching so many of these errors for me! I appreciate it!


[ 2016-01-11 18:52:09 CET ] [ Original post ]

Achievements

I know a few people were asking about it, so I added achievements to the newest update of Emmeline. I also fixed a couple of errors in the text that were pointed out to me. If you find any more errors in the text, feel free to mention it to me, so I can polish the script even more.

Also, if any of the achievements don't work for you, please let me know. You need to read every single scene in the VN to unlock all of them.

Thank you, and I hope you enjoy!
