About
Teo is a regular student until some unwelcome truths about his family surface, and those truths don't stay theoretical for long. The revelations push him into decisions he'd rather not make, and into relationships with the women around him that get complicated fast.
The story follows Teo as he untangles what his family has been hiding, with each new discovery pulling him further into tension he can't just walk away from. It's less mystery than slow-burn fallout: the facts come out, and he has to live with what they mean for the people close to him.
Play is straightforward visual novel territory, reading through Teo's choices as his home life unravels and new characters and scenes get added over time. Animated sequences show up in every update, so the intimate moments aren't just static art with a caption.
Changelog
- This update includes 265 new renders and 9 new animations.
- This update includes 240 new renders and 5 new animations.
- Along with fresh content, I also remade a few early scenes — keeping the story and dialogues intact. Those renders were made when I had just started working on the game, so their quality was noticeably lower. I decided to redo them.
- In total, around 110–120 renders were replaced with new ones. Here’s what was redone:
- — Teo drinks with his father and Lina arrives
- — Riz hugs Marta
- — Conversation with neighbour Mirela
- 640 renders
- 13 animations
