Helmed by Butterfly Rocket Studios, this was a submission to the 2023 Spooktober Visual Novel Jam. I enjoyed working on this as an equal participant and had a lot of fun with the character design, despite the tight deadline. I played with a style that I had started practicing recently (which turned out to be very time intensive, so there was a lot of crunch involved!). I'd have loved to really polish the art for this but I nevertheless love how it turned out!
