Rainy Monday is about an orphan named Moe, who lives somewhere in a big rainy city. One day, through curiosity and a strange sequence of events, Moe is compelled to explore an abandoned building near the bus stop. Inside she discovers a marvelous library filled with books and art. But there's also danger- strange deformed mutants who lurk through the halls, creepy journals to read, and a faceless ghost named Mr. Rusting. As Moe continues on her journey, she discovers a disturbing secret that has been hidden for years beneath the city, a secret that might tell her the truth about what really happened to her parents.
Rainy Monday is a visual novel with a focus on exploration and puzzle solving. There are currently six endings, and the endings are largely determined by your party at the end of the game. The game flow is pretty straight forward, but there are several big choices that determine your ending. There are also lots of little extras you might miss by flying straight through.
Characters:
Moe: A little orphan with a weird name and a mysterious past. She's the main protagonist.
Mr. Rusting: A faceless ghost with a bright red tie. So far he's helped Moe along in her journey, but no one truly knows his motives.
Fiona: Mistress of the Library. She seems too sweet to live in such a creepy place.
Emmett: Fiona's husband and the Master of the Library. He's stern but kind.
Chance: A strange boy Moe saved from a cage in the upper floors of the Library. He's quirky but seems to be an honest guy.
Current Status: So far, the first level is completed and I'm pretty much ready to release the demo. It should be known that this game is still really rough around the edges and is pretty much a practice run for me. I'm focusing primarily on the story, and so the graphics and customization are going to be minimal. All the game sprites are 8-bit rpg style, but the backgrounds were made in Sketch up.
