Rat Happening
foreverapril • Home Page
Rat Happening is a short visual novelish interactive story about premonition, waiting, and random(?) encounters. And rats. In our daily lives, we are surrounded with stories. Yet we brush against them, cast them a sideways glance and hurry on past. In the safety of our homes, we can speculate about a fragment of a story we saw in the street, but when we actually get a chance to become part of it we often elect to remain bystanders. And even if we do get involved, we never get to witness the story from beginning to end. Rat Happening will not tell you the entire story, nor will it put you in the center of the stage. But it will give you a chance to relive the moment. Maybe changing your path can somehow affect what is happening and help you decide what to make of it.

Golden Game Barn • Home Page
This the full first episode of Regeria Hope. Regeria Hope is a Visual Novel where you play as a female lawyer who can prove her clients innocent of crimes they did not commit, similar to the Phoenix Wright series of games. It is an episodic game, and new game play styles will be available as new episodes become available, and the choices you make will affect later episodes. There are plans to include a jury in later episodes, so you must appease jury members to have your client pronounced innocent, and to include ways to increase the replay value of trials by having your decisions in previous trials affect future trials in meaningful ways. The first trial has you defending a husband whose wife has been poisoned during the wedding reception. Currently you have the ability to interrupt witnesses and other characters while they are speaking, but be careful, as you have a time limit to solve the case! Featuring Art by Maesketch (Check her out at http://maesketch.deviantart.com/or http://hazakurain.tumblr.com/art ) Featuring sound production of voices by A. C. Menes.

It all started thousands of years ago, when a strange man who has nothing else to do because everyone thought he's an evil wizard created seven creatures to accompany him--Nope, this is not one of these stories so get your mind out of the gutter. They looked like humans, but they grew tired of their cozy little home and decided to have some fun. However, the world is too cruel for those peeps. So they became really evil and corrupted. Cliche, right? The man was so saddened by this and sealed them in a box with the cost of his own life, and whoever managed to open the box by solving the goddamn riddle will unleash evil in the world once again! A young girl named Michelle "Mike" Vinson--the awesome me--opened the box, and the world changes in an instant. The only way for me is to trust an amnesiac young man named Gerald, who seems to have an unstable personality because he changes it often its confusing. Long story short, I have to seal all the seven demons back in the box to regain my normal life, and reset everything that has been caused by the demon's actions. And the super-awesome-misadventures begins

Redwood is one of the most prestigious schools in the nation-- once, it served as a private school for the rich and famous, hidden deep away in the forest, away from public eye-- but was soon opened to all enrolling students (if they could pay the tuition fees.) The new school year is beginning, and Redwood's Headmaster states that he's got an announcement to make. During this announcement, one of the empty classrooms is set on fire-- with five students trapped inside. The story follows a few characters' attempts to solve the mystery of the classroom fire, as well as the other mysteries that spring up along the way. This is the first chapter of four planned before the story is complete. Rise and Fall contains graphic images and scenes (murder scenes, body discoveries, etc.) as well as strong language/profanity. Recommended 16+, but play at your own consent.

Romance Urban First Edition
Juniper CHEW • Home Page
General Description Romance Urban is a game produced by Juniper Chew, using the Ren'Py visual novel engine. This is an original story written and presented in the canon style of visual novel otome games. However, the creator has used 3D CG rendered still images instead of 2D anime / manga style artwork. The main purpose of the story is entertainment for female readers in the mid- to late-teens. While it does not contain explicit scenes or explicit content, it does have some mature situations of a mild nature, and includes some renders of shirtless male human figures. Erica Lin is a young junior executive working in the media industry of a top-tier global city in the East. She is 21-22 years old, and also studies part-time at the local city university. She meets potential romantic partners in the young artistes at work, and fellow students at university. The story tells of how her relationships with these potential partners evolve, as she copes with work and studies. Added to the mix is the alternative culture of an elitist tribe of neo-ninjas, who work covertly on special missions in the city. There are some sly references to archetypal anime / manga situations, and double entendre dialogue which only hard-core fans of otaku culture will pick up. This is the First Edition of Romance Urban. Game play is simple for this version: a choice between two alternatives leads the player down different routes which eventually return to the main story. While targetted at a specific audience, older players will relate to some of the situations, and hopefully, also enjoy the graphics and music. Extensions and spin-offs to the main story are planned, and these will be made available at a later time. The creator may be contacted at http://ibr-remote.deviantart.com or http://ibr-remote.livejournal.com
