Today's Sky
A downloadable visual novel for Windows, macOS, and Linux
An ascetic photographer's aspirations to break free from her chains of oppression at the hands of those who she should have been able to trust the most.
Today's Sky is a psychosexual trauma visual novel. The story follows Lucy, a spiteful 19-year-old woman seeking to break free from the grasp of her captors and find independence. In the circumstances of a relationship that relies heavily on punishment and confiscation, she abandons all of her possessions in the name of that elusive freedom. Yet, there was one thing left she didn't realize she had yet given up: her dignity.

beautiful short story with great usage of the photography for the backgrounds and other visuals. excellent work
God... I'm so.
You see it coming because it's so real but you really don't. I'm wrecked.
Your writing pulled me in completely. The visuals and audio were so immersive too.
I'm very glad I stumbled upon this work, and grateful that it exists.
the sydney opera house effect at the start was so amazing.
really poignant writing with little to no sugarcoating. just a gut punch over and over. i have no words, thank you..
sublime photography too. it really just feels like earnest, sincere photos from a teen. and that adds onto the horror of mundanity. short and simple and just, so so horrid all around
