How to Melt a Maiden's Heart News

Hi everyone,

Quick post to let you know that my cute new BL visual novel Where the Heart Rests has been released. It's a wholesome slice of life story inspired by the anime Usagi Drop. It's about a couple of men who adopt a young child. There's a lot of domestic fluff here, and some yearning between the two adult leads. The romantic relationship is a bit of a slowburn, and it's kind of lowkey.

There's also a fair bit of hurt/comfort here because I think it's cute!

This should be a nice read for people who like cosy and cute romance stories with relatively low stakes and some light drama.





You can buy the VN here:

But please read the mature content warning. There is no r18 content in this visual novel, but it might contain some themes which would upset people.

Hello everyone! I'm writing a quick announcement to let you know that Maid For My Master has been released!



Maid For My Master is a cute romance visual novel about a young man who falls in love with a robot maid. The story is very light-hearted, and it was partially inspired by Chobits.

The story contains a little bit of drama, but it does have a happy ending, and it doesn't contain any especially upsetting content. I think this would be a good story to read if you want something sweet and hopeful to cheer you up!



There is an adult patch for the game available on Steam, but it isn't necessary to enjoy the story. Feel free to download the patch or not; it's up to you.

You can find the VN here if you want to read it:

As always, thank you for supporting me while I release so many projects. I hope you enjoy Maid For My Master if you do choose to check it out, and you have a good time with Holly!

Hello everybody,

I'm making an announcement to let you know that Beneath the Bleeding Moon has (finally) been released!



I first showed off the demo of this VN 2 years ago, so getting it across the finish line was a bit of a challenge haha ;; I persevered, however, and now the full visual novel is out!

Bleeding Moon is a historical boys' love visual novel set in Japan. Follow Haru, a cross-dressing young man, as he goes on a journey with the devious thief, Kishou, to break an ancient curse.

Bleeding Moon is a little different from my usual visual novels in that it's less of a character drama and more of an adventure story. There's quite a few fight scenes, and it's (generally) light-hearted in tone, though there are a few darker moments.



There's also an r18 patch for anybody who wants it, which adds about 20k more words to the story and several animated(!!!) r18 scenes. This is the first time I've added animated adult CGs into any of my VNs, so I hope people enjoy it.

You can check the VN out here if you're curious:

Thank you for all of your support over the years! It's appreciated! I'll keep working hard to make more visual novels that people will enjoy!

Hi everyone,

I'm writing a super quick post to let you know that I've uploaded a new build of Melty Heart! This build fixes a handful of typos which were pointed out by eagle-eyed readers on the Steam community hub and in my Discord server, and it should make the VN just that little bit more polished!

Also, as a fun bonus, Reo's bedroom has also been retouched. In the original background, the picture frames on his bookcase were empty. I thought that was a bit of a missed opportunity, so I asked the artist to include some actual images inside the frames to make his room look more lively.

Well, what do you think? I think this small addition makes this background even cuter!



And that's everything! This is a small update, but I do want this VN to be as polished as possible!

As always, if you spot any typos and/or bugs in the game, please let me know. I will try to fix them within a reasonable timeframe!

Hello everyone!

I'm writing a post to let you know that my newest BL VN, How to Melt a Maiden's Heart (or Melty Heart for short), has been released! Yay \o/



Melty Heart is a cute slice of life story set on the fictional Japanese island of Omorishima (whose name might ring a bell if you've read my earlier yuri VN, My Dear Prince. The VNs take place on the same island and there's a couple of references to MDP in Melty Heart.)

The story centers around Reo, a delinquent who doesn't care about his grades, or his appearance, or school in general, and Yuuma, the serious head of the student council who's always picking fights with Reo. Reo can't stand Yuuma, and the feeling is mutual... But this changes when Reo discovers, quite by accident, that Yuuma has been working part-time at a local café while dressing as a maid.

Reo uses this knowledge to his advantage, and decides to blackmail Yuuma. He coerces Yuuma into helping him with his Love Quest to win over his childhood friend, Chinami. Reo's sure, with Yuuma's help, Chinami will finally fall for him, and they'll be able to live happily ever after...

So why does Reo keep thinking about Yuuma, damn it?!



This VN is suitable for all ages and doesn't contain any sexual content or anything particularly fanservicey, apart from a brief scene of Reo in the bath. There's some cursing, but nothing too excessive. The VN is available on PC, mac, and linux, and you can check it out here:

As always, I hope you enjoy it, and happy early holidays!
