It’s been a few years since I last made an otome game so I wanted to try my hand at doing a short story cautionary tale similar to those old folktales about how the raven got it’s feathers or how the zebra got his stripes. The plot if very simple, all you have to do is say no to mirror daddy!

Progress wise so far I have about 3 CG events left to do before I can move on to the next stage which will be the mirror monster’s sprite then music & coding!

If the feedback from the game is good I can think about doing a kickstarter where you get a chance to learn a little more about the mirror monster since so many people on my tiktok have been very vocal about wanting a romance route🤭 I think deeper emotional connections where you learn about the person is romantic…granted this was supposed to be a cautionary tale🤣!

I’m getting closer to the launch date for Say No to Mirror Daddy! I have the art booklet finally finished and it will have a process tutorial on how I did the background and CG event for this game as well as some of my notes about the story origin and a special thank you page for my patreon supporters!Fingers cross the next update will be the announcement that the story is ready to play! I’m off to start coding everything and I will talk to you all again soon!

It doesn’t NEED to have a kiss scene or have multiple love interest or even multiple choices.

As long as it’s target audience is female centric then it’s an Otome Game (but this is mostly my perspective~ others might say otherwise~)

A Troll’s Fairy Tale is my OEVLN (or original english visual novel) Otome games that I created during Nanoreno 30 Day challenge~

With Otome Games even though the majority is romance based that doesn’t necessarily mean that an Otome Game only has to have romance centered stories.

For example Curse of the Carribbean is a Otome Game visual novel that I did for Nanoreno but the genre isn’t romance but drama, adventure comedy focused.

There is no on screen kiss between the characters, nor are there multiple love interest neither but it’s still an Otome game because the main lead is female.

So if you’re wanting to make your own Otomoe game but you’re worried to classify it as an Otome game because it doesn’t have multiple love interest, or kiss scenes or even if it doesn’t have multiple choices don’t worry, it can still be an Otome game….at least in my eyes.

Sometimes classifications of visual novels and Otome Games can change depending on others definition since there isn’t really a hard and fast answer to this subjective question but just go with what fits best with you and makes you happy!

Don’t beat yourself up too much if it doesn’t fit other peoples standards of views of what is an Otome Game, there’s no law that you’re breaking and you’re not hurting anyone (at least I hope not Q^Q;)
