Compo entry for Ludum Dare #37 - "One Room"

A group of high school friends reunite over a chat room and try to relive the good times of when they were all together, but can their friendship endure the lost time?

Features:

• Nameable player character
• One whole ending
• This was made in 48 hours, what else are you expecting?

When the theme was announced, I was extremely happy. As an artist, I've always focused on the art style and character designs more than I should in my past LD entries. But with this, I wanted to do something different, something I haven't done before. So, I made a visual novel with one image, that being the desktop background. By setting the game in a chat room (hence the "one room") I was severely limiting myself to having to tell an interesting story through texts. I see this entry as me challenging myself to be a better writer and to explore more ways of writing visual novels. I hope you all enjoy it!
