Winter Dream Announcement

After not saying much about, it's time I finally reveal some more information about my next visual novel! I've been wanting to make a visual novel like this for a while and I finally got around to it. Development has gone as fast as I'd have liked due to me now having a real job and some big projects going on at home. In my upcoming visual novel, "Winter Dream", you'll be following Caron Duff who moves in with his uncle during his winter vacation. It won't all be relaxing though, since his uncle owns a restaurant and will be putting him to work. While he stays with his uncle, Caron meets three interesting girls.

Velda Penn

The first of the girls he'll encounter is Velda since she works at his uncle's restaurant. Unfortunately, she's not the most pleasant person to be around and won't hesitate to say the rudest things to just about anyone. 

Gwen Coy

He'll run into Gwen not too much later. She's pretty shy around new people but the more often she sees someone, the more likely it is she'll be comfortable around them as long as they don't upset her.

Rose Sherburn

The last of the girls is Rose. She's very nice and often putting others before herself. Most of her time is spent taking care of or helping children.

Since this is still in development, I have no idea what the difficulty is quite yet. I'll figure it out after it receives more testing. There are several more features I want to add before this out too. One thing I'd like to point out is that despite it being called "Winter Dream", which I don't know if the name will stick, there isn't going to be a whole lot of snow and that's for two reasons. The first being that I don't have enough backgrounds with snow and the other is because where I live, it's totally up in the air how much snow we'll get when winter hits. Sometimes we'll get a lot and sometimes we get next to nothing.

This visual novel is going to be a bit different from any of the stuff I've worked on previously. In terms of length, I'd say it's definitely longer than School For The Friendless. Unlike School For The Friendless, when you complete the three routes, either with a friendship or romance ending,  you'll unlock an all new "true" route. This is because the visual novel is based on stuff from Key/Visual Arts like Kanon, Air, Little Busters, and Summer Pockets. If you've read any of their stuff than you've most likely figured out that this visual novel is one of the saddest I've written. I'll admit, I did get a little choked up when writing some of the final scenes. Anyways, you can look forward to this coming out Summer 2021, as long as I don't have to delay it for whatever reason. Hope you look forward to what I consider one of my best.
