Something by the River
A downloadable game
Something By The River is a short narrative visual novel set in the Z-Verse.
On a quiet night by the river, a conversation unfolds between two figures. What begins as a simple exchange quickly turns uneasy, as inconsistencies surface and the truth becomes harder to grasp.
There is something wrong here.
And it may not be what you think.
This is a brief, atmospheric experience (around 5 minutes per playthrough), focused on dialogue, tension, and mystery. Player choices influence how the conversation develops — and what you come to believe.
✦ Features
- A short, choice-driven visual novel
- Multiple dialogue paths and outcomes
- A central mystery revealed through conversation
✦ Notes
This project was created in one week as a small, experimental release, meant to help me get my head around using Ink with Godot. You can learn more about that on my blog.
It is intended as a compact narrative experience rather than a full-length game.
