This is my first attempt presenting my short visual novel here on this forum. I started working on the game on March 11, and I expect to finish it within the next two weeks.

Another short visual novel about Haru. This time you team up with him to work on a school project. However, in this night something strange happens. Suddenly you're locked inside your own room and a dark power menaces your life! Can you find a way out of your room? Can you even survive this night? Pay attention to your environment and you might have a chance to escape. Sleepless Night is a horror/psycho sound novel. For full game experience, you should play at night alone in your room and turn the volume up. There are no 18+ scenes in the game, I would recommend the game for 13+, but it is very scary and there are a lot of shockers in it, so be warned!

Many thanks to NoodleBrains and Auro-Cyanide! Without your art I would be stuck ^_^

Haru is the protagonist of my book series "The Shadow-Trilogy". However, this story is not related to the series and does not count as official prequel, unlike my other visual novel "Soulmates". I would love to hear what you think about the game. There is basically no real story, you just have to find a way to survive. Oh, and another thing, I may need some proofreaders since English is not my native language. And maybe someone who could tell me if the shock moments in the game are actually scary ^_^

looks very intresting, i love the horror type games. It makes me wonder what would happen if you never escaped in the game. I bet the music is going to be really scary when bad things start to happen, the game sounds really intresting. :shock:

Thank you :)
I hope I can make it scary enough^^

Yes, it's a Escape the Room game... although I decided to add a few more locations so it won't get boring.
The art is gorgeous! I'm so thankful that I can use it for my game :)

@Nellie
Haha but it's really funny. I also forget sometimes about the scary moments myself when I test the game and get frightened :D
