Winter Dream

After a good while of working on it, and a bit of a break in the middle, I have finally finished this visual novel. The goal was to make something sad like visual novels from Key/Visual Arts. They're known for stuff like Clannad, Little Busters, and Angel Beats. Winter Dream takes inspiration from more than one of their visual novels, some of which already listed. If you're a fan of their stuff, you might like this visual novel. I wish development could have gone a bit faster, but I had some stuff come up in my personal life and got distracted by RPGs. For a good while, a lot of my attention went to them since they take so long to complete.

Anyways, in this visual novel, you'll play as a boy named Caron Duff who moves in with his uncle Daniel during his winter vacation. He meets three interesting girls while he is there. First is Velda Penn who works for Daniel. She has a bad habit of speaking rudely to almost anyone. Next is Gwen Coy who is shy around new people and after getting to know her, Caron learns how playful she can be. Lastly, there's Rose Sherburn who cares more about others than herself. There are multiple endings you can get: good and bad. Each girl has both a romance ending and a friendship ending. Get at least one of those endings on each of their routes and you'll unlock a new route.

When you complete that route, you'll unlock one more. Winter Dream is my attempt at a sad story, which I'll admit, I got a little bit choked up when writing one of the scenes. Hopefully I've succeeded in creating something that will make others feel the same way as they read Caron's story, from the happy times to the sad times. There isn't really much else to say but I hope you'll check it out and hopefully you'll like the story and characters. If you pay extra for it, you'll be able to get the original scripts and a manual.
