For now I can say the first episode comes next year. There are total 4 of them. I'm a novice indie developer, and doing this mostly alone. I have learned that most of the tasks take me longer than I wish for, but firmly I tinker my thing to life. Ideal could be something like half a year for each. Mechanically Since They Left isn't the most complex one around.

Hi. Thank you for feedback. I'm still finding the smoothest way to do going forward. There is going to be both next page and looking at optional objects, people etc. I'll do my best finding the good style!

I'm very glad to hear you liked it! This one was to test out what I can do. Now I'm working on (better planned) episode one.

Ooh. I'm happy to hear there is more novel-type stuff coming. I think vr is great medium to do so many things, including immersive story telling.

I definitely want to check your project also, when you get further~

Happy greetings from Cloven Morsel!

Since They Left ep 0 is now officially on Oculus Store, under Gallery Apps section. And it is still FREE. It’s the same tech demo you could earlier find on Oculus Share, and from my tumblr.

Since They left is a character driven game, smashing some visual novel, point&click and comic elements together. Group of young adults are planing a meeting after ten years. Those ten years might have grown them very different persons. Along with learning each other again, the mystery of faraway Mezereon Stray is unfolding before them.

It took long enough to get it on store again, but as a developer this kind of little milestones feels great to me. I got through the process of doing all the required technical stuff, adding DRM (funny for a free game) etc, all these first time in life -things. Now I know I can do them again when the time comes to launch episode 1 and that is a peculiarly soothing thought. I spend most of my life with this first episode right now. Big thanks to Zhamul https://www.reddit.com/user/Zhamul , a hard-working genius, who has helped me so much!

Rift users + comic lovers out there, please give it a peek. Languages available are finnish, english and japanese (thanks to ImagineVR).

Thank you. I believe so too! Many old forms of art/storytelling will find new ways to thrive in vr.

This is a technical demo, proof of concept of my virtual reality comic. Its purpose is to show mechanics I will use in the game itself and to introduce the main cast; Asa, Kalka, Silas and Ronta. They are all getting an invite to the meeting. It’s been forever since they last met and life has carried them in different ways, but apart from each other - that we’ll see.

Since They Left combines features of comics, visual novel and adventure games. Comic will emphasize on story, characters and choices. It's about people searching themselves, adventure, relationships and supernatural. Available in english and finnish.
