Make It Last: While You Can

We return to Harvey and Jordan's story, when Candace was only nine years old. A simple story of forgiveness and loss.

Make It Last: While You Can is a visual novel that  is set during the mid-2000's and is a stand alone story that takes place in the same series as Destiny Fails Us: A New Life and Make It Last, approximately 10 years before the events of those games.  

This game features several appearances by characters from other games in the series, such as: Mr. Sly, Lily Day, Charlotte Hastings, Samson Hastings, and Reginald Sly.

This visual novel has full 3D character models, and each character has animated gestures, facial expressions, and poses. There were supposed to be animated cutscenes, but I couldn't get them to actually play in the final build of the game.

Development for Make It Last: While You Can started in August 2020, and the game was completed in one month for the Summer Novel Festival and Yaoi Game Jam 2020.

This game features two gay men in a long term relationship as the protagonists, with a side story that follows their daughter and her best friend, Jess. 

Content Warnings: Mention of death, mention of cancer, visits to the hospital, swearing. There is a relatively short scene (about 30 lines in length) where Harvey gets into an argument with his father about Harvey's relationship with Jordan.
