Power Play (Demo)

You have never known love. All your life, you’ve watched everyone around you fall in love. Your best friend, Suzu, has been pining after another student for years. Your other best friend, Yuki, had a girlfriend for a few years, although they broke up last year. Even your brother has a girlfriend, and he’s in middle school.

It’s not as though you’ve never had feelings for someone— you definitely have, they’ve just never been returned. As much as it pains you, it’s quite possible you just weren’t meant to find someone who cares about you. Sure, your friends are great, and it’s clear they want the best for you, but from what you’ve heard, none of that will ever match up to the beautiful experience of being loved.

So… here you are. Going through the motions. Hoping against all hope that you’ll find someone to finally, finally love you. At this point, though, it would probably take a miracle.

This is just a demo of this game! Apologies for any issues with it, I made this for the Bingo Jam and didn’t have too much time to flesh things out! I also don’t have any way to test the Linux build, so… good luck!

Note: There's some swearing here and there and one somewhat crude joke but generally not NSFW and probably not offensive to most audiences.
