Game Vine Studios has their own website and I'm on it! Check them out now!
A game that brings a bit of real-life situations, horror, the paranormal, and love interests into this episodic visual novel. This game gives a rollercoaster of events with cutscenes, animated scenes, an amazing cast of voices, character customization (name, pronoun, and age), multiple endings you don't want to miss out on, and heart-racing choices.
You play a college student going into game design and coding. Thankfully, you already have your two best friends with you; however, a tragedy strikes as a new close friend of yours in class goes missing. Will you be able to solve the mystery? Will you make it out alive, or will it be too late? Find out in the game Only Fools Scream!
THIS GAME IS CURRENTLY IN DEVELOPMENT AND NOT OUT TO DOWNLOAD YET! Thank you for your patience thus far.
We are currently working on most of the sprites along with many other tasks; however, we are making sure all sprites are expressive, detailed, and look professionally done! Each character has their own personality and life outside of what you see, and you get to snack on the tidbits of information they share with you throughout the game. You are also able to build or destroy your relationships with all characters through your choices!
We will have plenty of cutscenes from flashbacks to nightmares to building relationships with your favorite character! You are able to see new perspectives and beautiful art of the characters throughout the game as the story progresses.
All in-person moments are fully voice-acted with many talented voice actors to boot! Each character's lines are expressive and can be understood clearly, adding to the immersive aspect of the game. Each Voice actor has incredible talent and abilities that bring the characters to life!
The game will have a few animations, such as Camera Logs, Animated Intro, and many more to come! We have about 14 planned animations that will be fully animated and voiced for a better viewing experience with talented animators, storyboard artists, and voice actors.
Instead of using purchased or reused visual novel backgrounds, we decided to take it a step further by taking our own reference pictures and drawing them ourselves. No AI-generated art, No Traced art, all art made by actual commissioned artists!
Your choices not only impact the storyline and your relationships but can end up killing a character or yourself! Not to mention, you can fully customize the player's full name, Pronouns, and gender for the best interactive experience. There are different voices for different genders to add to this gameplay experience.
As mentioned above, with life and death choices, almost all choices have the ability to increase, decrease, or maintain a neutral stance with your preferred "love interest" or the friendships you build within the game. The more points you get with a character, the more you learn, and secret dialogue can be unlocked! This means you can also save characters, or your words will mean more to them, the more points you have with them! Cool right?!
The Demo alone has roughly an hour of content, and that is only 25% of episode 1. We plan for at least 8 episodes for plenty of content with choices at every turn. You can also replay the game and view other endings as well all depending on the choices you make. With 8 official endings, 7 Episodes with at least 1 hour of content each, and more. What's not to love about this game?
You can purchase the game here or find it on Itch.io when it releases. Hopefully, we will be able to release the game on Steam as well.
