Very happy and grateful for the indie scene for being so supportive of queer themes in otome games! I love me bisexual MCs and LIs!! 🗣️🗣️

Just released a quick #UI pack for spring! Mostly a challenge to design using the default #Renpy layout, but I ended up having to tinker with the code some. Never. Again. Anyways, it's free so enjoy! 🌸 otojang.itch.io/simple-sprin...

Ilya sprite poses done! Now for expressions, I get to draw annoyed smile and polite but seething inside...

It's officially April, and that means it's time to announce release date for the final route in Bloom! I'm happy to say that Cal's route will release on April 24th. In just a little over three weeks you can finally experience all four routes of the game in full! #otome #amare #indiedev

I forgot, but I have a VN fully written in Indonesian. Lupa kalau punya VN yang ditulis pakai bahasa Indonesia. Link: altila.itch.io/mencari-putr... Itu abangnya namanya Bambang, btw. Postmortem (English): altila.itch.io/looking-for-... #visualnovel #kineticnovel #vndev

Levi is at work. #otome #amare #indiegame

Hi everyone, Cheri here~(⁎⁍̴̛₃ ⁍̴̛⁎)!!💬 What, Cheri's game has over TWO THOUSAND plays?! No way! Keep letting Cheri know ya thoughts, okay? Especially if Cheri is ya fav~ leave a comment on Itch to let everyone know!! 🌹 #otome #yuri #amare #indiegame

Happy #TransDayofVisibility to my favorite tsundere Albion Stratus🏳️‍⚧️! I'm sending well wishes to everyone in the community, have a great day ❤️

COMMUNITY NOTES is way more popular in the #yuri tag than the #otome one so thank god I kept the tag and didn't listen to the people who don't have their own games to market! #gamedev #indiegame

This is one of my favourite otome game demos I've played! I highly recommend it especially if you have traumatic experiences with religious schools or upbringing hehehe.

HELL YEAH!

The after stories screen is almost fully complete with the addition of Cal! Here's a WIP version of it for you all~ #yuri #otome #amare

❌️ DON'T PLAY MY GAME IF YOU... ...don't like emotionally distant men or pathetic (affectionate) NB characters ❤️ ...don't like cozy coffee shops ☕️ ...hate diverse themes in media ✨️ BUT if this sounds good to you, then you can play my #amare and #otome on Itch!

And now it’s finally her turn to take the stage ✨ Meet Amira, our newest MC. She's tough, she's cool and she's probably going to face far too many bad endings 😈 #NaNoRenO2026 #VisualNovel #OssanJam2026

Half the people complaining about what you tag your games with just don't want your game to exist at all.

"why don't we have woke otome" we be trying to but u guys started up Otome Segregation for some reason 😭

Princess of Worlds End has officially been released! Please check it out on Steam, we have put so much into this project over the past few years and it has all lead up to this moment! #visualnovel #releaseday #newgame

I love them… #otome #amare #indiedev #LGBT

I obviously gotta be louder about the fact that I make Southeast Asian characters because why are the weirdos on X saying my Southeast Asian character is a Japanese person doing blackface??

Only 2 more days until Princess of Worlds End is released! It can’t come soon enough! #visualnovel #indiegames

With the countdown to our release in May, we are showing off more CG WIPs from our FREE Amare Dating Sim, Sweet Valentine Chocolatier! Wishlist to see the completed CGs in-game! 💖⬇️ store.steampowered.com/app/4303900/... #indiedev #gamedev #otome #amare #datingsim #wishlistwednesday

❌DON’T PLAY MY GAME IF YOU… ...don't want to date your manager (problematic!!) ...don't like gyarus (i hate whimsy!!) ...don't think biphobia is real BUT if this sounds good to you, you can give the demo of my #otome and #yuri game a try on Itch!

we support the writer's barely disguised fetish in a climate where adults on social media are mortified at the idea of consuming something that made someone horny

❗️❗️CASTING CALL❗️❗️ Deadline: May 3rd @ 11:59pm EST Unpaid - Otome Jam Attention VOICE ACTORS! We're looking for 5 (black preferred) VAs to voice in an upcoming fantasy, romance story! Details are in the doc below!⬇️

My devlog is out, where I talk a bit about the writing, plot and character design of THE COMMUNITY NOTES ARE WRONG. #otome #yuri #amare #indiegame tenshistudios.itch.io/the-communit...

Levi's route in COMMUNITY NOTES is around 40% written. I've been quite locked in!

Finally finished another CG for #sweetvalentinechocolatier ! Only 14 to go! We launch in May. Living on the edge, as most indie devs with dayjobs do... (We really gotta stop doing this) store.steampowered.com/app/4303900/... #indiedev #gamedev #visualnovel #otome #amare #renpy #romance

The next chapter of Cheri's route takes place at a Pride Festival. What sort of drama will go down there? #yuri #otome #amare #indiegame

THE COMMUNITY NOTES ARE WRONG was originally gonna be called "Between the Notes". I wanted a much stronger social media reference. ChirperQueue, the social media planner, was supposed to be called "Chirper Planner" too. I slightly regret not calling Chirper "Chipper".

We made it this time! Enhanced Demo Arrives February 12 Ahead of Steam Next Fest! Please look forward to it! store.steampowered.com/news/app/234... #Steam #indiedev #indiegames #videogames #vn #visualnovel #vndev

With Qwynn's route finished it's time to start programming for the next update :3 #otome #visualnovel #amare #indiedev

I almost named a character "Kalaric" (because I wanted something that sounded like "Alaric") but realised it sounds like the word "caloric".

Someone went and downvoted every single positive comment in THE COMMUNITY NOTES ARE WRONG's Itch page? 😆 Who got mad?

Happy first day of Spring/Saint's Day in Halis! I have a very exciting reveal for you all today... introducing 'Cal'~ Cal will be getting their own route in April ♥️ #indiedev #amare #otome

When I post about my games in non-#otome gamedev or #indiegame communities, sometimes I wonder if the reason they get less attention compared to other games is because: - it's a game for women - I'm a woman - it's a VN or - they're not very good 🙈

With the release of Qwynn's route we've hit another milestone for Bloom! Thank you for all of the love and support ♥️ You can play Albion, Felix, and Qwynn's route here: nightlightwrks.itch.io/bloom

The next release of COMMUNITY NOTES will have two more CGs and another hour or so of playtime! Coming out in May! #otome #yuri #amare #indiegame

I had been eagerly waiting for Michael's route in Sweet Valentine Chocolatier by @veryfatcatz.bsky.social! I finished it last night and it was so fun. I love arrogant LIs hehe. He was actually really sweet! #otome #yuri #amare #indiegame

Yorhel, the founder of Visual Novel Database (VNDB) and open source contributor, has sadly passed away. It's thanks to their work that the VN community was able to find so many overseas fans. (And TIL it was Ever17 that inspired it all – a fine choice if there was one). RIP. News: vndb.org/t24787
