Survive The Date
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android
You wake up in a strange and isolated place, with nothing and no one to look at except a small set of furniture, a man, and his TV. You don't remember anything. How to escape? Who can be trusted? There is only one way to find out the full truth: ask questions and gather clues.
Figure out how you got there and learn about your new companions. Who knows? You might learn something about yourself too.

I just finished playing this game some times ago, and I would say that honestly, I wish there is more to the story! I find aspects of the narrative interesting, but I also feel like they could be built on more on some parts.
Though I know it's meant to be a pretty short VN, I find one of the endings to be somewhat abrupt, leaving me feeling like "is that it?" (though it does urge me to find the other endings to understand it)
Other than that I find the track selection used for this game good, they fit the ambience of the game well
Thank you so much for sharing your honest opinion! This is valuable for me to know for the next time I make a game. I admit there are some endings I was not very happy with, but I created them and left them in the game to allow the story to branch out a little bit and add a little bit of mystery. From the sounds of it though, it may have made the game feel incomplete in some aspects. Regardless, thank you for playing SVTD and taking the time to write this! I appreciate the feedback 💖

Hi! Thank you for sharing a part of you! I love the game and i do hope there will be more games!
Thank you for playing!
will there be Android version too?
Hi! I am currently looking into creating an Android version. I want to test the game before releasing it to be downloaded, since a mobile version might need changes to the UI and interactions. There is no timeline for this yet. Thank you for your understanding
