Lovely Center World
Today I’m announcing the development of my new dating sim: Lovely Center World!
Step into the shoes of Heather Kobrick as a rookie security officer. Go on an adventure, build friendships, and maybe even find love.
I’ve been hard at work! Here are some previews of what’s in store:

It will even feature some mild adult content.
I think this would actually work well as a graphic novel with some minimal gameplay, a la “VA-11 Hall-A.” I’d suggest point-and-click investigation segments for the gameplay, since it gives the opportunity for incidental world-building. Bear in mind that not all graphic novels need branching story paths; some of my favorites have been strictly linear.
Good April Fool’s joke, in any case. I continue to love the comic. :)
