About This Game

The planet is... pretty much screwed, I'd say.

Fifteen years ago, the RSLR (rapid sea level rise) event wiped out the Arctic glaciers.

and within a year, almost 50 percent of the world's land mass was submerged.

A desertified planet, a society in shambles.

I was demoted from my job, estranged from my best friend, and my life was going nowhere.

In fact, I was saved, by a certain person...

...but forced to take the saviour with my own hands.

No, maybe that's not a good idea, maybe I should just make some pancakes.

After all, it's theoretically impossible to make the perfect pancake.

  • Story-centered text adventure game, Visual novel(ish?) playstyle, light puzzle included

  • Supposed to be Science Fiction, though not every script is scientifically confirmed
