The ever-so beautiful project from SoftColors, Aquadine, is out now. One of the most anticipated stories to date now has a full release with over 200,000 words. It honestly feels surreal considering my talk with the head of SoftColors feels like it happened yesterday. However, the game is here now and it looks astonishingly good. When I played the demo last year, I spoke highly of the game’s characters and art style. It’s a breath of fresh air that perfectly compliments the scenery you’re in. Following Aquadine’s development has been a thrilling experience. Now I can yell at all of you to please go out and buy it. It’s available on both Steam and Itch for $17.99 and, as a treat, you can snag the amazing soundtrack for $3.99. This is honestly an otherworldly experience, don’t miss out and let SoftColors know that I sent you. Anya is best girl.
Aquadine is now live on Steam and Itch at a 10% discount! Thank you all for the support leading up to this launch! I'm really grateful we've gotten this far! #visualnovel #vndev #gamedev #indiedev

Need a reminder on the story of Aquadine?
After his mother was hospitalized for an unknown disease, Robin Liyun works as a part-time gondolier to make ends meet, but under an alias named Ciel. As he finishes giving tours one night, a mysterious voice lures him to discover a beautiful mermaid. She dives underwater shortly after their encounter, which leads him to believe Ancient Aquadine was real. His town was named after it out of respect for their sea deity Levios. Robin continues to live out his double life, while making new friends and learning more about the merfolk civilization.
A review for this game is already written, please look forward to all my thoughts in complete detail. For now, enjoy the magnificent opening movie.
