Never Play Again
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
A strange nameless game drives those who play it to madness. Who made this game, and what is its true nature?
- Short episodic story that you can enjoy in about one hour!
- EXAMINE/TALK/LISTEN/MOVE, the story is told via the classic Japanese adventure game commands.
- 1bit visuals resembling the manga aesthetic
- Original music by me! (You will unlock a music room when clearing the game)
Another Spooktober VN Jam and another crazy mashup of inspirations. This time I've started my journey from a story by Junji Ito called Second-Hand Record and the true story of Silent Hill Play Novel and its lost chapter. The game is set in the early 2000s, a perfect setting for a videogame creepypasta story.
You will play as four characters in four different chapters, each one tackling the mysterious game with a different approach: someone will go crazy, someone will seek medical help, someone will investigate the true origins of the game.

"This save file is literally my life" AHHHH I got goosebumps from that very first line, such a banger opening! The vibes are immaculate with the music and art too~
One little bug that I found was a piece of repeated dialogue which was: "sick music, right?" which was after the first "what stage are you playing?" line
aaaa thank you so much! Yeah I think the first spoken line of a story should be the most important one!
As for the repetition you mentioned: it's intentional, I was going for some sort of deja-vu effect but I can see how it can be seen as a bug...maybe I should make it more clear, thank you for the feedback!
