Hello dear blog readers, it’s been a while. I come to you today with a slightly different topic: instead of a review I have in fact released my own otome game last week! After years of concepts and half-assed attempts I finally sat myself down and told myself to finish something if it kills me. This so happened to coincide with Otome Jam 2023, which I promptly took as a hard deadline, and wouldn’t you know, it actually worked out this time!
A red moon shines ominously on a city shrouded in endless night. The people here don’t seem to have any life left in them. Well, all except for him. A young woman looking for an escape from her dreary everyday latches onto the only man left with light in his eyes, and musters up the courage to confess her love. If only she had noticed his sharp teeth before it was too late…
Duskbound is a short free otome game (around 45 minutes playtime) with one vampire yandere love interest. The game has 5 endings, plus one unlockable final ending and features an original soundtrack by EJ Tan. All the writing, art and programming was done by yours truly (I even drew backgrounds!). It would mean the world to me if you would check it out by clicking on the image above!
There were a whopping total of 73 entries to this year’s otome jam! I haven’t had the time to check out all of them yet but there’s a lot of high quality projects being released so I definitely recommend checking out the rest of the entries.
