Yeah the thread title here is definitely rhymed all right. Anyway the tweet in regard of it below. Initially Steam did list it as October release, although right now it already change into Q4 2022, so it mean that at the latest we'll get the VN in December's end. That aside, as we know this is Laplacian VN which we know was released Aojashin back on February with one tiny fault that caused one tiny controversy that still enough to annoy me here (At least it won't happen with Mirai Radio here), so if possible I prefer to less talk about it for now. Anyway it's good that we finally have the long wait for it is finally almost over, especially if one already waited for it ever since Sol Press announced it (When they still have enough spirit before realized that they didn't allocate enough money to pay taxes).

Siren's Call: A free Denpa visual novel where you escape from an actual tourist trap. Siren's Call is a Denpa visual novel loosely based off of my experiences living in (and escaping) Central Florida as an adult on the autism spectrum. The game was a passion project made by myself, my wife, my best friend, and a couple other close friends and freelancers. It took us roughly four years to complete and is now out on Steam for free. While your millage may vary on how scary you find the game (much of it is based off of my own personal fears), I can say with conviction that you will feel the love and effort put into this project. Steam Download: here Features and stuff: 7+ hours of Visual Novel Gameplay with dire consequences for how you choose to spend this final day of yours. 55 journal entries and and 60 unlockable gallery images for those who want to explore everything this town has to offer. An original story centered on saying goodbye to friends rather than saying hello to strangers. A dynamic, original soundtrack meant to perfectly capture the feel of central Florida music. A cast of lovely characters that only want what's best for you. A 94% positivity rating on steam with 150+ reviews! (not a feature, but I'm proud of this one} Characters: Judith, the exceptionally sweet (and extraordinarily intense) sovereign of Siren’s Call! Andi, the sovereign’s sassy twin sister whose strength and spunk speak volumes on their own! Ashton, a hero in training whose sizable fist is matched only by the size of his heart! Emil, the once timid boy turned man who will not stop until he reaches absolute perfection... and, of course, Violet: your actual girlfriend. We've finished the main game which you can find on steam right here, but my team and I are also making extra story content as well! Prove You Aren't Dead: A Epilogue While it is true that our team succeeded where many others have failed and got Siren's Call out in a playable state, it is far from being "complete." Over the course of the past five months, I've released a few bonus stories acting as a prequel of sorts to the events of the main game. But in terms of the true epilogue...that is what I'm going to be working on for the foreseeable future. If you would like to support this project, there's a link to the kickstarter right here, but I mostly just wanted to create this post as a little home where I can post updates on not just this new content, but Siren's Call as a whole. If anybody has any comments or feedback on the project, I am very excited to hear them and discuss your experiences. This VN has been my wife and I's life for the past few years and if ya'll have any thoughts, don't hesitate to share them. Until then, enjoy your stay in Siren's Call.

To each of their own I suppose when it come to Grisaia, although it seems that the common opinion is that the first game (Kajitsu) is the best while the second (Meikyuu) and third game (Rakuen) itself are not as good as Kajitsu. By the way for both of Meikyuu and Rakuen I'd always treat it as fandiscs for Kajitsu, although if one want to look at it objectively it still can be classified as sequels even though there's no basis for the sequels in Kajitsu VN (Which Frontwing seems to realize when they made the anime version of it).

Hi! I'm Whitehand from Frigid Delights Studios! Sinsations 2 is the sequel to our first released BL / yaoi game, Sinsations. In Sinsations 2, you continue your role as the Deadly Sin of Lust from the first game, Kosuke, or play as the new protagonist Maverick. Each storyline is unique to each protagonist! Four new romance characters, as well as all returning Deadly Sins, mini-games, and a greatly expanded word count! You can find more information on our itch.io page, as well as the demo, here: https://whitehand.itch.io/sinsations-2-modern-gods-demo-a-bl-yaoi-visual-novel Please note the demo has many NSFW scenes. We're currently about halfway through development, and we are running a Kickstarter to help with development costs! It can be found here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1660363304/sinsations-2-modern-gods-a-bl-yaoi-visual-novel Our goal is to increase the length, quality, and world of the first game in the sequel. If you have any questions feel free to message me here, or on Discord! Cheers!

Please remember to add the newest episodes to your initial post so people can find them more quickly!

Yuuna and Miyabi routes playthrough proofreads complete. No more outstanding bugs are obvious. I've committed quite a few proofread typo fixes, and alas there will probably be quite a few that still make it to the final, but overall it's pretty solid now. Tonoko's route was proofread in the lead up to this so it doesn't need proofreading. A quick play-test shows it works fine to the end. That leaves only doing a playthrough proofread of Shino's route, and I can then finalise the patch for release. That should hopefully be done within a week, barring finding any new bugs.
