A downloadable Dreadlines

Live out your wildest power fantasy:
being employed!

This is an unfinished version of the demo for the game I am currently working on, Dreadlines. It's a dating sim with a focus on comedy.

I am also working a full-time job in real life, so I only get to work on this in my free time. Please leave a comment and let me know what you think!

Follow the game on Instagram to stay up to date: Dreadlines

You can find it on Steam here.

It's so peak... I loved the demo. Please tell me Kenna is a romance option on the full game.

I would simply love to stare at Amara's see-through ass all day, but alas... The demo had to come to an end :'( I hope she's romanceable in the full game...

She is!

All it took was opening the preferences menu and seeing the "screams" option for me to realize you might be a comedic genius. The fact that there are almost definitely less than 7 typos in the demo is another stroke of comedy gold. (Edit: Never mind, I found all the typos. You might be the funniest person to ever use Ren'py.)

The parallax effect is pretty neat; did you make that yourself, or is that an existing Ren'py feature? Same question about the visual wobbling effect on HR.

Curious about the Secret Save file. Does that represent a real scene later in the game, or just a secret for people digging into the game files?

Looking forward to further updates. Great work.

Thank you so much for the feedback! I cobbled the parallax effect together from multiple tutorials, sadly it's not a feature in RenPy by itself, same with the wobble. 

As for the save file; You'll have to wait and see ;)

Brooo, this project has so much potential! Not gonna lie, looking at the art style, the humor, and the atmosphere, it feels like I'm playing a solid trendsetter (like Helltaker, for example).

Sorry for my bad English, but I just wanted to congratulate you on this project. Keep it up, bro! (I literally created an itch.io account just to leave this comment and i need ia for fix my message lol)

That warms my heart, thank you so much. Your english is fine, I'm glad you liked the demo! More coming soon.
