A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux

Things have really been tough... After multiple moves, an emotionally-draining breakup, and some seriously long hours at work... it's been difficult for you to stay positive about the future...

 But it looks like things may soon change for the better. There's this special someone you've been thinking about. They came to your section just over a month ago. You can't help but wonder about the possibilities.

...  If only you could keep past mistakes from getting in the way...

This is meant to be a horror game. Some of the scenarios will contain subject material that some may find deeply upsetting or triggering, including depictions of stalking, assault, physical/mental abuse, self-harm, homicide and allusions to suicide.

I'd love to hear what you think of the story, so far.... As well as if you find any issues or errors. I don't always respond on here (I blame depression and anxiety🥹), but I do read all the comments🤗

Spoilers down below~!

I remember playing this demo some time ago and by that time I was confused on what was happening and why the plot was this way. But so far, you really sold the dreary and bleak atmosphere. I like how it feels slow and boring at the first part and the pure monotonous progression shows MC's further mental state.

I like the twist at the end especially with the test scenes where we can be able to gather the real role MC has and how it goes against the traditional roles of what MC and the LI have which is very intriguing to see it in a different POV.

I have to say! I had an inkling on what the "roommate" was but I really like how we really see the thriller aspect of yanderes and how their obsession is downright terrifying when not in the lens of their love interest. I also like how you can see the roommate hesitating in the test scenes to take MC's life but in the Bad End in the actual game, you can see that the Roommate didn't even hesitate in answering the questions and a lackluster response. Probably the shock of killing someone faded overnight.

Really hoping we see more lore from the Roommate and seeing MC's mind work overdrive to outsmart the murderous killer. Great work!

oh...so I'm the victim that a yandere killed instead of being obsessed,🤣it's the first time I've played yandere game from this unique perspective (in a good way).I like the depressing atmosphere of this game, which gives me a strong sense of immersion, and I'm looking forward to future updates!😋

wait really? I ended up reading this comment by accident and lost interest, is the story at least good?

Ahhhhh I'm sorry to make you lose interest! I should have added a spoiler ahead! ! I pretty like the mysterious and depressing vibe, and the writing style is also good. Generally it's worth playing.

i got called "he" by the killer after my death was announced on the news

Quite awesome! Really enjoyed the art and how the writing actually made me feel like the MC. Would love to see this being developed more!
Btw, no good ending?

Thanks🤗 I'm planning to eventually finish this one, along with my other stuff🙇‍♂️ It's just a matter of when😅👌

And... yeah🥲 The current demo doesn't have any good endings, but I am planning to have at least 2 good ones in the finished game🫡

Oooh, new up

Yup😅👌 I hope you like it if you're able to try it, but any constructive criticism would be greatly appreciated😊👍

i really love this game,so wonderful

Wow! This game is so interesting and has so much potential! I really like the style, atmosphere, tension, plot. Could you tell me please, are you still develop this game? Or it's on hiatus? 

And if you are still working on the game, is there a possibility in one of the game routes that yandere will become obsessed with the MC? Romantically, I mean. That would be so very unusual!

Liked the story but from what there is right now it's not a yandere game. A stalker who is after you isn't automatically a yandere.

No hate tho just wanted to tell you that. Regardless it looks like a lot of potential! Also i hope you are alright if you said in one of the route that this game is kinda your coping mechanism and that you also went through something like that.

Take care

Thanks, and hopefully I'll be able to to eventually finish the game... Big spoiler for what's to come, but the 'stalker' is coming after you because they view you as the competition. At least, that was what I was going for...

Yea good luck with that i meant that this character isn't a yandere but it can surely be a stalker.  A yandere is a character that is also obsessed with you like a stalker but they are obsessed with you for romantic reason not for hatred (like many stalkers irl reasons)

And i can see that direction where you are trying to go with the stalker since it's obvious that they hate the MC!

woah this is amazing!

I love the style and narrative of this game! Looking forward for more :)

I had a full narrated verson of this but for some reason my mic didn't pick it up and so I cried.  Not long after I died..and than I died again.  For some strange reason I just can't get a good ending but maybe there is no happy ending in Love Company!  I know it's just a demo 😉 and I really enjoyed what I played and hope to see a finished game. I love the film noir look of it really gives it a 1940's mystery feel almost an Agatha Christie vibe!  ❤

Thank you, and that makes me so happy.🤩 I look up to Agatha Christie, so hearing that really means a lot.🤗 Unfortunately there are no happy endings in the game yet, but I plan to have at least one or two good endings in the finished version🙇

I will be waiting for the finished product can't wait to see what you create next! 🦋

Thanks☺💖

Really enjoyed this demo so far! The black and white painted art style is great, and the story made me look forward to the rest of the game. I just wish the demo was a little longer T_T

Sorry for the size, but it's just one person working on the art and story. I am happy to hear that you still enjoyed the demo, so far. :)
