laying with the dead on broken concrete
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
update: fixed some spelling errors because now that the game has over 60 downloads, it bothers me.
a short kinetic visual novel made in about 7 hours. you are a fallen angel, recalling the memories you have of the dead girl whose form you have taken. 3.1k words.
there's going to be mistakes in art/script/etc. it's a low effort game.
warning: this game does discuss some heavy elements, including suicide and religious trauma. the religion here is only loosely based on christianity/using its terminology but with my own elements.
this character was originally going to be for my main murdersim (what the last revenge line alludes to), but i couldn't flesh out her feelings without sounding repetitive in that setting. so, for now, her backstory is interwoven into this game. there are some little anecdotes from my own life here and there.

Another absolutely beautiful story by catsket
I've always loved the artwork for catsket's games, and though the game itself was fairly minimal in nature, the writing kept me gripped throughout the whole experience.I can never say no to a nice, fluffy, yet somewhat depressing sapphic story.
thank u as usual lion [mwah]!
The art for this game is so pretty and I love the writing style done here! It's not anything I've seen before and it might've created a new favorite genre for me!!
I personally encourage everyone to stay tuned to projects they are involved in. Their art will continue to blow you away! (Also if you need a cool artist for jams or projects, I recommend them too they are so quick to draw and respond and have the coolest ideas)
i'm going to squeeze you! thank u!
I have to admit, I absolutely adored this little game. The main illustration is very pretty, and the stream of consciousness style of writing suits it perfectly! I think the low effort aspect really works in it's favor too, it helps it feel more emotional and personal. Great work!
this is such a warm comment. thank you so much!
