At first glance, William is a lazy college student. He spends his days sleeping in, skipping lectures, drinking with his friends and gathering up courage to talk to Jasmine, who's on the theater committee. But over the last few weeks, a mysterious restlessness has come over him. He's distanced himself from his friends, spends his time alone in his room and harbors thoughts that cannot bear the light of day . . . Slowly, William is coming to the realization that the world he lives in is no more than an illusion. The city, the university, the artificial island upon which he lives, they're unnatural abominations against humanity, that need to be undone in order for history to take its due course. Delve into William's mind as his last links to reality slowly unravel. About The Raintime is a freeware visual novel about the psyche of the undeveloped mind. In September 2019, we released a short story version of the game in early access mode. The full game is online from June 2020 .

Press reviews: “The game ends in unrelenting climax—” Invision “I haven't had that much fun playing a game since Borderlands 2.” Lambdaman Gaming “A phenomenal work of literary genius, bringing to mind classics like Knut Hamsun's Hunger or La Rochelle's Le Feu Folie—” Eveghost
