- Cute yuri visual novel The Demon Queen's Dire Dilemma has been released! - 26 February 2026
Hello everyone! I'm writing a quick post to let you all know that my cute comedic yuri visual, The Demon Queen's Dire Dilemma, has been released! It's a very silly and light-hearted story about an adorable- um, I mean, very scary and fierce demon queen, Lady Asmodeus, as she tries to make her ditzy human maid, Lisette, fear her. Will Asmodeus succeed, or will Lisette manage to get the better of her? You'll have to read the visual novel to find out 👀 You can find the visual novel on Steam here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3446430/The_Demon_Queens_Dire_Dilemma/ This VN also takes place in the same universe as my previously released BL visual novel My Confounding Cat is Criminally Cute, so you might want to check them both out if you want to spot some of the cameos and references. Both Demon Queen and Confounding Cat are standalone stories, however, so you don't need to read them b…
- The Demon Queen's Dire Dilemma will be released soon! - 7 February 2026
Hi everyone, I'm making a quick announcement to let you know that I'll be releasing a shiny new yuri visual novel, The Demon Queen's Dire Dilemma, on Steam Soon™! The Demon Queen's Dire Dilemma is a short comedy story about a failgirl demon queen who's trying (and failing) to get her ditzy human maid to fear her. Lady Asmodeus is supposed to be a terrifying, all-powerful despot, so why does Lisette enjoy doting on her so much?! What's going on?!?!?! The VN is mostly finished, and a near complete build has been approved for release by Steam. The VN just needs another round of quality checking, and then it can be released! I'm not sure when the QC will be finished, but I'm hoping to release the VN either late Feb or early March. If you want to be notified when the VN is out, you can wishlist it here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3446430/The_Demon_Queens_Dire_Dilemma/ And Demon Queen…
- Cute yuri visual novel Out of the Ocean has been released! - 16 January 2026
​Hello everyone, I'm making an announcement to let you know that my cute yuri visual novel, ​Out of the Ocean​, has been released! It's a cute and wholesome story with two love interests (including a mermaid girl), a potential poly ending, and a whole load of adorable art! ​ If you want to read something relaxing and light-hearted, then this is the visual novel for you. It's pretty sweet (though there is a little dash of drama), and I'm very happy with how it turned out! It's actually one of my longest yuri visual novels, since it sits at around 150k and it has multiple choices/endings, so that's exciting hehe :) If you like this sort of format, please let me know. I've been thinking about making some more long yuri visual novels with multiple heroines, choices, and branching, so if this visual novel does well, I might create other VNs like this in the future with longer, more detailed…
- Out of the Ocean demo has been updated! - 8 December 2025
Hi everyone, I'm writing a quick post to let you know that I've been hard at work these last couple of months on my cute yuri visual novel feat. a mermaid girl, Out of the Ocean. The VN is very close to being finished, and it's been fully coded and edited save for one ending out of a possible five. I'm still waiting on one art asset and the finalised trailer, but other than that, the VN is done. I'm hoping I'll be able to release it some time in December, but as we're nearing the end of the year and the winter sales will soon be upon us, I'm not sure if I'll need to push back the estimated release date until January 2026. I did upload a shiny new demo of the visual novel to Steam, however, which is a little longer than the older demo. In addition to have a few extra scenes, the new demo is a little more polished in terms of visual effects and music placement, and there's an early 'bad e…
- Her Love, Like Poison has been released! - 28 July 2025
Hi everyone! I'm just making a quick post to let you know that my spooky yuri visual novel, Her Love, Like Poison, has been released! If you've read any of my other yuri VNs, then Her Love, Like Poison might look familiar. The character art is by the same artist of my previously released yandere yuri visual novel, It gets so lonely here, and the UI is in a similar style. I wrote Her Love, Like Poison pretty soon after finishing up Lonely (I must have been in the mood for more toxic yuri set in the woods), so while the two stories are unrelated, they might be a little bit similar tone-wise. In any case, I hope you enjoy the story if you do check it out! It's quite a short game, so it's priced accordingly (it's $6.99 with a 10% launch discount). You can pick it up here if you're interested: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3412620/ As always, thank you for your support over the years! I…
- Cage of Roses has been released! - 16 February 2025
Hello everyone! I'm writing a quick announcement to let you know that my newest VN, Cage of Roses, has finally been released! I say 'finally' because I wrote the script for this VN all the way back in early 2021. It took about 4 years for me to get this project pieced together, but I'm very glad that I stuck with it until the bitter end! I think the art by Rock CR and the music by Sarah Mancuso is especially lovely, and it really adds to the overall atmosphere of the story. They really went all-in on the pretty visuals and the ominous, eerie music, and I think it all comes together really nicely! It's been a dream of mine to write a spooky vampire story for over a decade, and I'm very happy I was finally able to do that. I hope I did the idea justice! You can check out the VN here if you're interested: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2993720 Please let me know if you run into any bug…
- Announcing a few new yuri VNs - 10 January 2025
Hi everyone! \o/ I'm just making a quick announcement to let you know I'm working on a couple of shiny new yuri VNs (when am I ever not working on yuri VNs tbh haha...) The first on the list is Her Love, Like Poison! It's a dour little VN set in the English countryside during the winter, so it'll be very bleak and cold and miserable! It's a story about a university student, Ethel, who's struggling to muster up the enthusiasm to work on her thesis while girlrotting in her parents' home in a teeny-tiny village. Stuck for inspiration, she goes for a wander in the woods late at night, and has an encounter with a mysterious girl who might be more than she seems. This is a spooky VN with some sexual themes and body horror elements. It goes some rather dark places, but I don't think it's too unpleasantly awful. The character art was also done by the artist of It gets so lonely here! You can wi…
- Spanish (Latin American) translation added! - 25 November 2024
Hello everyone! I'm writing this quick update to let you know that Rituals in the Dark has been translated into Latin American Spanish, thanks to the efforts of Hector Esquivel. I'm pleased that this Rituals is now available in even more languages, so more people will be able to enjoy it! As always, please let me know if you find any bugs or spelling errors/typos in the new update, and I will try to fix them all in a timely manner.

- Small update - 27 May 2024
Hi everyone! Just writing a quick update to let you know that I've fixed a handful of typos which were pointed out in the story, both by people on the Steam community hub and a kind person on my Discord server. Rituals in the Dark should read a little more nicely now! As always, if you find any other issues in this VN (including further typos or any technical issues), do point them out, and I will try to fix them within a reasonable time frame! Thank you very much for your continued support; it's very much appreciated! - ebi x
- Clear Skye Thinking has been released! - 14 May 2024
Hi everyone! I'm writing a quick post to let you know that my cute yuri VN, Clear Skye Thinking, has been released! It's a wholesome slice of life story set on the Scottish Isle of Skye, which follows a lolita protagonist called Alice as she meets and falls in love with the cheerful tomboy Piper. You can check it out here: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2939470 The story takes place in Skye and shows off various tourist locations on the island (such as Dunscaith Castle and Neist Point lighthouse), while also developing the relationship between Alice and Piper. It's a sweet, fairly short story which can probably be completed in around 3 hours by a fast reader. There's no mature content, and it's all quite light and fluffy. Tonally, I think it's rather similar to All the Words She Wrote or The Fairy's Song, if you want a reference point. I hope you enjoy it if you do choose to check i…
- Cute yuri VN Clear Skye Thinking available to wishlist \o/ - 28 April 2024
Hello everyone! \o/ I’m writing a quick announcement to let you know that the Steam store page for my upcoming slice of life yuri VN, Clear Skye Thinking, is now up! Clear Skye Thinking is a cute all ages story about a young girl, Alice, who goes on holiday to the Scottish Isle of Skye with her father during the summer holidays. While in Skye Alice meets the cheerful tomboy Piper, and they both go around the island examining the various tourist spots, from the ruins of Dunscaith Castle to the lush gardens at Armdale. It’s a sweet, slow-paced story about exploration and adventure, and (with some luck) I’ll be able to release it within the next couple of months. You can wishlist it here if that sounds like your sort of thing: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2939470/Clear_Skye_Thinking/ - ebi x
- Trading cards added - 16 March 2024
Hi everybody! I'm just writing a quick update to let you know that trading cards have (finally) been added to Rituals in the Dark! The game has been approved for trading cards for a while now, but it took me some time to actually add them haha ;; Nevertheless, I'm glad they're in the game now! I hope you enjoy collecting the cards and the various points shop items! - ebi x
- Fragile Feelings released on Steam - 12 October 2023
Hello everybody! \o/ I'm writing a post to let you know that I've released a shiny new yuri VN on Steam, Fragile Feelings! Fragile Feelings is a romance story about a shy young teacher and a gothic school nurse. It’s set in an isolated all-girls’ boarding school in the Japanese countryside and it has a relaxing, soothing atmosphere. The story does contain some serious moments, but it's generally positive in tone. Out of all of my previously released yuri VNs, it's probably the most similar to Blackberry Honey, even if the setting is pretty different. Ann and Kohaku have more than a few things in common with Lorina and Taohua, haha ;; If you want to read something sweet and sapphic, please consider checking it out! https://store.steampowered.com/app/2025700 Thank you for all of your support over the years! It's appreciated! - ebi x
- Yuri VN The Fairy's Secret released on Steam - 7 February 2023
Hi everyone! \o/ I’m writing this announcement to let you know that I've recently released a sequel to my cute yuri VN The Fairy’s Song called The Fairy’s Secret! The Fairy’s Secret is a linear visual novel set in modern day England which centres around the relationship between a grumpy goth and her medieval knight girlfriend. The story is of a similar length to the original Fairy’s Song and it has a similar tone. It’s quite a light-hearted story, for the most part, though there are some fantasy elements and a few moments of intrigue and mystery. The VN is available in both English and Simplified Chinese, and a German translation might happen in the future if the sales are strong enough to support it. If you enjoyed The Fairy’s Song and wanted to read more about Marnie’s adventures, then you should enjoy The Fairy’s Secret! You can buy it on Steam here, if you’re interested: https://sto…
