Just played the game! Never in my life have I loved a game so much; game seemed appelling cause I'm in a family with trukers (ironic), I love how detailed this game and I may or may not have motivation to write stupid things about this game, like so many things will be written..
this is such a sweet comment 😭 thank u sm!! i’m honored to make a game that unlocked that kind of love for you!! and please feel free to let your imagination go wild w/ writing, i'd love to see!
HELLO???? i just read it and OMG?? this was so so good, you captured ilya’s voice perfectly, he’s so calm and tender but so unnerving too (which is exactly what i love about writing him). that last line gave me chills deadass thank you for sharing this with me omg!! 🫶🩷🩷
of course! I am honestly admire your work..so I had to put in the work! I’m definitely working on more later in the morning—I’m so happy you enjoyed it:3
AWW ♡ ৻ ‿ ◕〃)ა>{ jax is tragically taken </3 BUT don’t worry, i’ve got plans for an emo-adjacent love interest in a future otome game project that i'm working on, so your time will come !
LMAOO cookin more movie as we speak (๑•̀ㅂ•́)ง✧ tysm, so glad u liked the vibe and the art!! i wanna flesh that out the story a lot more as things go on hehe ♡
Obsessed! Found the game through HelloYinny and I LOVE the vibe of this. I was yelling at the screen at MC like a horror movie and it was so much fun. MC has some classic horror Final Girl vibes but also feels realistic too. The game setting felt both comfortable, compelling, but also unsettling. Incredible work! I am excited for the Captivity route! Love me a good yandere and Ilya scratches a good itch 😊 (with a knife 😂)
AAA tysm ( ; o ; ) her playthrough was so entertaining to watch so i’m really glad you found me through her! your words are really motivating me to push forward and continue working on the game
YESSS i love jax and loretta, i'm planning to make a small extra/side story for them at the very end of the game (and for 2 other future NPCs as well) they're actually quite wholesome
OOOO YAYY !! loretta reminds me of a japanese kogal !! shes sososoo cute im not kidding, also i lovee the fact that shes like very pink very cutesy and then theres jax in full black right next to her ?? SO EXCITED FOR THE EXTRA !!
if i was actually the truck driver i would DEFINITELY get kidnapped by ilya, i have too much empathy to drive past him or be rude especially when he looks like such a cute puppy boy SKOZDUZHFIJD, SO EXCITED FOR THE FULL GAME !!!
hehe, ill be waiting very very patiently !! at first when ilya mentioned the serial killer i was like 'its you isnt it ?' but then i grew to like him. YOU WOULDNT IMAGINE HOW HEARTBROKEN I WAS WHEN HE KNOCKED US OUTT !!
i made an account just to comment here. I got hooked like, instantly. the art is gorgeous, the vibes are perfect, the writing is great... I'll be keeping an eye out for any future updates!!! Good luck and take care, I'm rooting for you!! ( ˶ˆᗜˆ˵ )
Out of curiosity, the player character is i think implied to be female based on the photo on the ID, right? Do you plan to expand on that at all, keep it ambiguous, maybe add options for masc players, etc? Or will it be mostly unmentioned in the rest of the game?
omg tysm for making an account just to comment that ( ; ω ; ) that seriously means a lot!! yep, since this is my first game and the player’s gender doesn’t really affect the story, i’m keeping it mostly unmentioned for now! other than the ID photo it’ll stay pretty neutral for the rest of the game (i mighttt redraw the ID for the final release? maybe) i'll definitely try to be more considerate about this for future projects tho!
:0 awesome to hear!! I of course would still play even if the PC had a confirmed gender, but it's always nice to find stuff that allows for ambiguity. especially because I am.... down so bad for Ilya. legit couldnt sleep for a sec last night bc i was thinking of this game lol >w<. thanks so much for replying!!
aaaa this is amazing!! i love that it feels like your choices really do matter. the atmosphere of the game sucks you right in and keeps you there, i love it. Ilya is such an interesting character and i cant wait to see more of him <3!!!!!
POTENTIAL CHOICES SPOILER WARNING IF PEOPLE WANT TO FIGURE IT OUT THEMSELVES!!
I got the 3rd bad ending/all endings, if I remember correctly, the best way to get it is to act neutral. Not nice, or overly suspicious, just SUPER neutral towards him.
Before you let him in the car, ask more questions and THEN let him get in. Once he’s inside, don’t pry or ask him about his family AT ALL or try to “confirm his car problems”. When there’s an option to change/divert the topic, always change it. Just focus on the college life and road isolation questions only, even if you have to choose and re-ask them multiple times.
Options I chose:
“Pays the bills”
“yeah, it sucks”
“someone would”
All college life questions are safeIlya “this kind of weather” question
Choose: “Annoyance”
For isolation of the road Always choose: “Like we’re the last people on earth”
Once you finally get to the MC saying: “So, Oakhaven” Ilya will mention “Car troubles. Out of nowhere.” choose the “hesitate” option. Once he tries to explain the “inside joke” about maple street, choose “stay silent”. After the interaction, immediately try messing with the radio.
Once you get to the green sign, take the exit, head into the gas station to ask for help or rethink in order to ask for help. DO NOT PLAY IT COOL OR COMPLY WITH ILYA, grab the cashier’s wrist, and then try to run.
That’s how you’ll get the 3rd bad ending. It’s the saddest ending IMO T_T
(´｡• ᵕ •｡`) thank u sm for helping each other out! i will have to fix the 3rd bad ending though since its kind of buggy + i want to illustrate another CG for it, but i hope you both enjoyed the game!
This game literally eats! The 3rd bad ending and all of it is so well-written and realistic, I love this game and the art/CGs so much its so addicting! Plus Ilya is so fine ( ◡̀_◡́)ᕤ. Its super rare to see a red haired guy with freckles FINALLY get portrayed as a yandere. This game is legit a dream game for me (cuz hawt guy…and freckles). 16/10 because he’s fine, red-hair, and is a craycray yandere. I super can’t wait to see more!
Hi, I don’t want to be too spoilery, but just be suspicious of him and choose to be super adamant about meeting his parents/family. It will lock you in the sequence to that ending, just make sure not to choose the “apologize” options when asking about them. Once you get to Oakhaven, there will be a choice you can make that leads most people right into danger…Fail to fight him off and you will get the 2nd bad ending.
Just responded for 2nd bad ending, but for #1 out of the first 2 bad endings, just be mean, hyper-aware/inquisitive, and CLOCK HIS TEA ALOT! T_T Focus mainly on “Confirming his car troubles”, Observing him, and playing with the radio. Don’t ask about his family or pry too much about his college life. Just create an overall negative tone/atmosphere with him and you will get that specific ending.
The art style of this game has me hooked! Ilya is super duper cute!! I really want to see the full version! Also, I’m curious if this game will have a relationship system in the future?
aaaa thank u so much (⸝⸝ᵕᴗᵕ⸝⸝)!! ilya would be so pleased LOL and yep!! there’ll be a relationship point system in the full version but i’m still deciding if i want it to be invisible, or if players should see when they gain/lose points. i think i might lean into just making it invisible so players don't feel pressured(?) if that makes sense
Made an account just to tell you that I am absolutely in love with your game! Went in suspicious of ilya(and I still am lmao) but now I love him so much! I can’t wait for the full game! Is there any way I can keep up with the progress and updates? :)
omg thank u sm ( ˘͈ ᵕ ˘͈♡) ilya would be so smug if he heard that LOL i’ll be posting updates here on the itch devlogs + tumblr, so feel free to follow if u want! so glad u enjoyed the game ♡
Omg I love this, ive never played a visual novel with so much interactivity. I love how the different choices so obviously affect the gameplay and results, I feel like other visual novels ive played felt like what I choose didnt really matter anyway. Ive been playing for 5 hours its insane how im still entertained! Ive gotten all the endings but the 3rd bad ending, if I could get some kind of hint it would be really helpful because im struggling lol. But I love the game and look forward to the full release!
AHHH ᡣ • . • 𐭩 ♡ i’m so so grateful for the support!! even though a lot of the intro is spent in the truck, i really want to flesh the story out more in future routes, so knowing people are still this invested means the world to me,, i was a little nervous about keeping it engaging haha so i’m really grateful you stuck with it !!
tysm for letting me know about the bad ending! i just double-checked and realized that there’s a bug that’s been blocking access to it </3 i needed to work on the pacing on that one anyway, so i’ll fix it for the full release and it’ll be properly included then!
OMGGGG JAN HELLO AJsdkasjd IM SO GLAD U LIKE IT i was honestly so inspired by all the stuff you've been working on so i kinda pushed myself to start creating things too THANKU
wait why is this game never talked about????its one of the best vn i've played and i like how the mc in this game actually feels like me and not a self insert for the creator. So much cool art, so many choices, and such a cool concept overall 11/10 girl!(bonus points because i think ilya is fine :3)
yesss there will be, don’t worry! just depends on how you begin the captivity route(s)! the story might take more darker turns though, more often than not, but ill try to implement a lot of agency with the choices! 🫶
Love the art and the story is really interesting so far. Can't wait for the next update, you're already doing really good if this is your first visual novel :)
I loved Ilya and the story writing much . Specially the description of small chunks of atmosphere and feelings...And you know quite deep about med school studies. Are you a med student !? 🥺💖
im so glad that he's resonating with you!! <3 omg no, actually! i originally wanted to go down a healthcare path/field but things happened financially, so now i'm currently pursuing information systems instead :)
made an account just to comment!! i've been playing this for two hours and my friends are concerned
i adore this game so much. just finished all the available endings, and the writing truly puts you inside of the game, along with the beautiful art--which i genuinely couldn't stop obsessing over. it makes ilya look very cutie toots despite his not exactly sane nature.
i don't usually find myself replaying routes in games just to read other dialogue options, but i did with this game! i didn't even find some of the endings until i forced myself to start over because i was too busy going through all the dialogue. neutral ending 3 did definitely become a favorite, though, merely because of the absolute chills i got from it.
definitely looking forward to the full release! no rush at all im sooo totally normal about this game. thank you for the demo!
WHATTT?! thank you for making an account just to comment that’s so sweet omg 😭 i’m seriously honored you spent that much time with the demo (sincere apologies to your friends from me HAHA)
it makes me so happy to hear that the writing and art pulled you in, especially that you replayed for different dialogue! knowing that it was worth going back for makes me so happyyyyy
thank you again for such a thoughtful and funny comment, it genuinely means a lot to me. i’m so excited to share more when the time comes!! ( ,, ︵ ‿ ︵ ,, )
Your talent for crafting horror atmosphere is incredible!!!😭
snowy day? midnight almost isolated highway? our adorable stranger avoid question or even make up answers? So many times, my sense of danger spikes—like this is it, like is a calling 911/ghost hunter/detective situation, but in NE nothing happens.That eerie stillness somehow makes it even scarier, like we narrowly escaped something dangerous.
Then when I reached the captivity ending, it gave me relief to find our friend was just a friendly kidnapper <3（jk) your art is so beautiful btw, thank you for this demo!
i appreciate your words a lot, thank you!! <3 the way you describe the atmosphere is so wonderful and descriptive, definitely hit the nail on the head! i’m so glad you enjoyed the demo ♡
Oh my God, I LOVE THIS! The art, the story, many multiple endings despite the fact it's a demo... Thank you so much for an amazing game! Ilya is my little baby fox that makes me want to hug him to death :D And yes, I did get the bad ending first LOL
art is jawdropping, ambience and pacing are fantastic, i love the story telling and atmosphere. literally amazing!! for a first project this is spectacular!! excited for everything u make. love4eva <3
hi hi! nope, the mc isn’t gendered in the game. i was originally planning to write from a more feminine pov, but since it didn’t really affect the story or choices, i ended up keeping it neutral! ദ്ദി ( ᵔ ᗜ ᵔ )
oh okay! Thank you for such quick answer!! Loved the game, can't wait for more! The art and choice of music is incredible, and I really loved all the dialogues! Oh, one last thing, would it be okay to ask for a hint for ending 5 (captive, I think?)
thank you so much for all the praise!! <3 hmm, as for the ending, there are actually 3 different choices that can lead into the captivity routes / the end of the demo! i haven’t officially numbered the endings yet (right now there’s 3 bad endings and 6 neutral ones), so it can be a little tricky to track.
i’m planning to add either a walkthrough or an endings/achievements label in the full release so players can keep better track of what they’ve unlocked, so hopefully that helps down the line! :D

I CAN'T WAIT FOR MORE UPTDATES, WHAT. Please someone let me know when the whole game is released cus I just got obsessed with it in one route :')
AHHH im so happy you like the game so far!!
I really hope that we can be nice to Ilya in the captivity route...without any negative consequences. He seems really interesting despite his actions.
yesss there will be, don’t worry! just depends on how you begin the captivity route(s)! the story might take more darker turns though, more often than not, but ill try to implement a lot of agency with the choices! 🫶
You can be nice to Ilya, and still get into the captivity route? Now, I need a walkthrough. I tried to be nice to him, and kept getting killed.
ill try to compile one after the full game gets released 🙂↕️
Thank you!
I'm so excited to play this, I got the captivity route so I need to see it 👅 (be honest will this game hurt me)
im excited to work on the captivity route(s) (๑*ᗜ*) mmmmaaaaybe...
Love the art and the story is really interesting so far. Can't wait for the next update, you're already doing really good if this is your first visual novel :)
ahhh that means so much! i have so many projects and ideas i’d love to bring to life, so i really hope i can keep it up. thanks for the support!! <3

Hi! Is MC gendered in the game? Can't find info on the description and tags
hi hi! nope, the mc isn’t gendered in the game. i was originally planning to write from a more feminine pov, but since it didn’t really affect the story or choices, i ended up keeping it neutral! ദ്ദി ( ᵔ ᗜ ᵔ )
oh okay! Thank you for such quick answer!! Loved the game, can't wait for more! The art and choice of music is incredible, and I really loved all the dialogues!
Oh, one last thing, would it be okay to ask for a hint for ending 5 (captive, I think?)
thank you so much for all the praise!! <3 hmm, as for the ending, there are actually 3 different choices that can lead into the captivity routes / the end of the demo! i haven’t officially numbered the endings yet (right now there’s 3 bad endings and 6 neutral ones), so it can be a little tricky to track.
i’m planning to add either a walkthrough or an endings/achievements label in the full release so players can keep better track of what they’ve unlocked, so hopefully that helps down the line! :D
