"Oh my God, they were roommates."
When an alien boy named Enoch lands on Riley's balcony one uneventful Sunday night, Riley's world is instantly turned upside-down.
Play as protagonist Riley (name and pronouns changeable) and navigate the complicated maze of academics, friendships and rivalries that is high school, all while trying to keep the biggest secret in the entire world under wraps: the existence of your alien roommate.
Can you keep him a secret from everyone, including your closest friends? Why did he come to Earth in the first place? And why does the new substitute teacher have such a peculiar interest in him?
Pursue three MALE Love Interests in this romantic BxB/GxB visual novel: the socially-anxious childhood friend Lucas, the intelligent but arrogant "Class President" Felix Yang, or last but not least, the man alien of the hour himself, Enoch.

I can't wait for the full game to come out!! I love Enoch and Lucas so much, but I really love Felix, and I want to see more of him! ^^
<3
i love this game!!! cant wait to see more of them <3
<3
I love this game sm :) Felix is my favorite, to be honest
I don't want to sound annoying but...when choosing the they/them pronouns, like- the uh, idk words, are set to feminine, like ''girlfriend'' when my pronouns are they/them- shouldn't it be partner? or something- i don't have a problem with that but still..wanted to point it out, idk if that's on purpose
Thanks for pointing that out! I never noticed that, will change it in the next update!
Glad you like the game! :)
are you going to make an extended demo(s) before the full game releases? i need more of felix ahgeyrtgwey
Ur gonna make Felix blush >:)
Currently the only playable updates will be Beta Builds released chapter by chapter for Kickstarter backers
If there's enough demand I might think about opening Beta Builder slots on my KoFi but it may be more than what the KS backers paid since they backed during the KS period
i am SO EXCITED FOR THE REST OF THIS STORY AHHHHHHHHH LOVE THIS SM ALREDYAADUYDYA
<3
aha Trip and Grace ...Façade reference? anyways besides that the demo was rlly cute! Definitely a 10/10! :3
Trip and Grace my fav dysfunctional couple
Glad you like the game!!
Great goodness, I didn't expect the ending of the extended demo! I also recognized a lot of the memes that were present in here and the comedic genius is really showing <3
If this is how the demo is, I'm hyped for the rest of the story. It's going to be awesome!
Glad you liked the memes! >:)
are we still able to buy the game when it's finished? I missed the Kickstarter :(
Of course!
You have no idea how relieved I am rn, thank you! (◍•ᴗ•◍)
Umm...When does day 2 come out?
If you mean the full game, I'm aiming for a 2025 Dec release!
I love this game so much!! I just want to flirt and tease Felix forever <3 I was wondering how long will be the game and when we'll be able to play it full or at least a little more! ^^
Glad you like it and Felix! :3
The full game could range about 5-7 hours per route maybe? Development has been slow because of school for me but the good news is it should pick up the pace soon because I'm almost done. I'm aiming for a release Dec 2025!
>gay alien vn with no gay sex
Why would I ever. What am I even doing here. Suck my pronouns.
ahhh this game was so good, it was so entertaining!!! usually i skip through a lot of boring dialogues in games but this game had me hooked fr. i'm obsessed. can't wait for the new update!!! happy holidays and good luck with school stuff!!!
Why is this game so damn funny?? I laughed the whole time playing it, thanks for making it so enjoyable and entertaining to read <33
Soo one thing I've noticed while playing is that they don't use the pronouns I gave the uhh game, so maybe it could be a glitch or something, maybe not, that's why I'm telling this atm. I'll update when iI finish the gameplay!:D
hii, let me know which parts they dont show up and Ill fix them in the next update! :)
ah- well I kind of forgot, but I'm glad to go over the scenes again! also, the name I put in didn't show up in one scene, it is the scene close to the end I think..where Mr. Gala whatever his name is..caught kat saying some mean things about him, for example the quizzes he puts up, hopefully, that can be fixed as other players might encounter that problem as well!:) also, I REALLY loved the demo and I'm attached! I'll try and save up to buy the actual game, but only when it's complete because I'm sure I'll get invested easily.. Anyway, that's it. The characters I've liked so far were the 3 love interests hehe, and of course Kat, but mainly I have mixed feelings for Felix because I sorta have a type for those people, I'm incredibly surprised on how u came up with these love interests of ours! Did u do some research on what people possibly have a liking too or u just make it based on ur own type? Because oh my, u have some great taste based on MY own, hihi, u really did a great job catching my eye and making me interested in ur game! I hope everything goes well for u!:)
This game is so good! The characters are interesting, the writing is good, the art is appealing, the story is fun, and you can see your choices directly impact the story as it unfolds. I can't wait to see the rest!
Thank you! ^.^
excited ramble incoming!! I am sooooooooo happy i ran across this game!! I clicked it on a whim but I truly think i've hit gold. I've just finished the extended demo and my biggest takeaway? the writing in this game is absolutely amazing!! I love love LOVE the banter between the MC and the others, I love seeing Enoch having a hard time picking up on different 'earthly' sayings and slang, and i love every character and their very distinct personalities. dialogue just flows so organically, and the game's humor is so silly and endearing; i found myself laughing a lot more than i expected!! (Kat's answers in the popped quiz took me OUT) I cannot stress enough how high quality the writing in this game feels, its just so perfect. I'm not really one to anticipate the release of new games, but rest assured i will be religiously following the updates of this one!! I'm almost angry with myself for stumbling upon this gem before it was fully completed, but the last couple of hours have been way too enjoyable for me to complain :) so, SO excited to see where this goes when its already so enjoyable!!
p.s. (small spoiler ahead for anyone playing :3) I think i might have caught a little error in the dialogue... I think it was around the time Mr. G is asking Enoch to come to the staff room after school (for the second time). When MC insists on being there, he refers to us as 'Riley' instead of the custom name we might have inputted at the beginning of the game. Just something small!!
Thank you so much for the long and kind comments!! :D I love hearing that people enjoy the game so much :3
And thanks for pointing out any glitches! I will do my best to fix all of them in later versions :)
I love the game! Will it cost money when it releases?
Yup! It will cost about $15
ERM ERM NOT THE CLIFFHANGER AT THE END....

I nearly screamed when I reached the end of the demo, I was in absolute agony. This game is so good! I love everyone's personalities and the character designs! The memes and vines hidden in there were gems, I'm so happy they were put there. I can't wait for the full game to come out!
I'm glad you love my boi :3 and that you enjoyed all the little memes in game! ;)
<3
I love this game,the art style, music, everything
(enoch is so adorable btw)
keep up the good work guys!
Thanks! :3
Ive played until getting to try to unlock Ms. Fortune's room, is there a way to unlock the drawer other than the bolt cutters?
ive tried 7680, 6969, and 1234, as well as all combinations 0000 through 0200, but cant find a way to open it... any tips you could give me?
Edit: found the code... I completely forgot to try checking the computer lol
PLEASE help me with that, i cant find the password T_T
I'll update the walkthrough soon for all people having issues!
If you really want it urgently, I wrote a brief walkthrough in the Discord haha
I'm glad you love it! :)
Hehhe... When I first laid eyes on Felix... I knew he was the one, But its hard when you have another someone you want to protect with your life 🥺
I love stories longer than 3 hours And I also liked the story and the many options, I hate to save every single one to try and get hidden achivements. I finnaly can rest in peace because of it, Can't wait for the full release!!! 💘💞
It makes me happy knowing Felix is loved 💜
Happy to hear you enjoyed the long story and the achievements! XD Thanks for the love!
I just finished the extended demo, what can i say it's very good.
The plot has got that hype that not many visual novels have and i LOVE the self aware moment about visual novels. And honestly the end shocked me a bit cause i had the theory that the sub was an alien
Overall, I loved it and i have hopes that the game could fully release this year. Lots of love!
Happy you loved it! Thank you for the praise! :D
Coming out this year is gonna be a tall order, but supporting the Kickstarter will definitely help make the game a reality ;)
Just played the extended demo.
Wow, I thought I can't possibly like Felix more than I already did, but guess again! He is the best. No words can describe the sheer amount of affection I have for this boy.
I hope the game will get the funding it obliously deserves!
Aww I'm glad you have so much love for my grumpy boy :)
the demo is so good!!! Sadly, I can't contribute to the kickstarter, but I really hope that the game can be funded and made!
Playing made me laugh out loud so often and made my day. I had a lot of fun figuring out the passcodes and playing the games, and the demo has great replay value. I really enjoyed getting as many achievements as possible.
I wanted to ask, is it possible to get the 'eat felix' favourite meal' achievement in the demo?
Thank you for putting in so much effort to create this game!
I'm happy you had fun with the demo!! :D
It's okay if you can't contribute, just spreading the word and sharing the Kickstarter helps!
Nope, that achievement isn't available in the demo, only the full game. The number next to the achievement indicates which chapter the achievement can be gotten.
I have no idea what the code could be for when they get to the faculty office? I don't know if that's what it is but I can't figure out Ms. Fortune's password or lock code I swear I tried mostly everything, I don't want to break the lock so I can feel smart for figuring it out
Great game btw, I remember playing the first demo it was fun
Haha I'll update the walkthrough as well with both a spoiler and non-spoiler version (with hints) in the near future if you still can't figure out the passcode :)
cannot figure it out either :(
neither can i
When I played the first demo I thought Enoch's character is so fun to be with, so much so that I wished I had an alien roommate irl (1/2jk) ...
I wanna play the extended demo right now but I'm still busy with things so the next time I'm free is still very afar :(
Very afar, hmm? ;)
I'm glad you like Enoch uWu
Hope you enjoy the Extended Demo too once you get around to it! <3
i am now addicted to this game. call me crazy, but i'm so interested in Felix's character since i'm a real "enemies to lovers" addict, i hope i won't die waiting for more!!!!!
Thanks! I enjoy enemies-to-lovers too ;)
that makes me feel wonderful, i am now your biggest fan! :3
Gaaahhhhh I can't wait to see more of this game! Personally, the MC was a little too abrasive for me, but I can understand where she's coming from sorta? Just wish there was a little more lines on why the MC is so gosh darn,,, stuck up on Enoch not getting found out. But I guess that might be a me issue since I've grown up used to worrying about other people ^^So far I've been playing on Enoch's route (or what could be considered his route, since I'm getting all the points for him as much as possible) but I'm really interested in Felix' character! I'm really pulled in by how he really IS a stuck-up teacher's pet by day, so I'm really wondering what brought him (or at least I'm PRETTY damn sure that's him?) to dress up like that and head out at night!
I'm glad you're intrigued by the characters! :D
You'll get your chance to learn more about Felix if the full game gets funded ;)
This was a very fun game! I was so wrapped up in it I hadn't realized that I'd been playing it for hours. I love Enoch as a character and I am very excited for the full version!
Aww I'm glad you love Enoch and the game! :D
I guess I have missed the "5-8 hours of gameplay" part, imagine my surprise lol I enjoyed every second of it! I really liked the game and the characters. Totally worth spending my day playing it. Thank you for making it and I'm so excited for the full version, I'll be supporting the Kickstarter as well.
Thank you for playing it and the support! :D
Thank you!! :)
This was really a fun concept 😌 I really love the pacing and can't wait for the real game coming out🐣
Glad you enjoyed it! :D
I loved this!!! I cannot wait to play the full version
