A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux

the full game will be released later than planned, thank you for your patience






a 'soft yandere' game


please lower your volume before starting playing ... I'm not sure if the default volume is loud or not

warnings:

DEMO: bright colors; a smoking character!; some uncomfortable but small and hardly noticeable yandere stuff (in demo); some brief intimate moments (not sexual); bad words; 


FULL GAME (can be updated): bright colors; disturbing images (eye contact, syringes); smoking, alcohol; attempt of drugging; swearing; blood and violence; cults/sects + local world's religion topics; horror elements; mentioning of (as wel as sexual) slavery, brainwashing (aren't related to the main character and love interest); panic attacks, mental health problems; sexual content; bullying topics; yandere, yangire etc. topics and related things (stalking, obsession etc)

story:

a few years ago, you illegally created an android with the help of underground scientists. since then, this android, Zu, has become the most important part of your life - he is always by your side. it seems that constant closeness has had some consequences.


IN DEMO:

the main objective of the demo is to familiarize the player with the main characters. yandere elements are not yet fully manifested, but they can be traced in small details, gestures, words and events



  • the main character goes by they/them
  • you can choose any name you want!
  • the game already has some CGs (sgs? cgs? how do you write it lslksdfj), you can have an idea of what to expect in the future.





this is my first game, so it may look a bit silly, but I really enjoyed creating it! It was created specifically for the "Stained Red; A Yandere Game Jam", and I was a bit short on time, so I'm only posting a demo version for now.

(+1)

I LOVE THIS SO MUCHHHH ZUZU IS SO CUTE! i started playing because the artstyle was so unique and bright, but wow. i really fell in love with zu, such a calm and quietly affectionate character.

HE CAN P U R R

really can't wait for the full game aaaa

(+1)

Love this so muchh!! Can't wait for full game!!

(+1)

This is just the demo and I love it already!! ><

Zu is very cute and sincere even though he seems a bit suspicious, but I can say I'd like to have an android  like him. Can't wait for the full version of this game, thanks for making such a great game ^^

(can someone please tell me where are people from twitter (x) coming from, is there a post or what)
a mystery indeed ... . ..

(+2)

zu is so cute! can I try to translate the demo of this game into Chinese and share it on the Chinese website? My English is not very good, but this will be the first game I want to try to translate. And wish the author good health, thank you for having such a good gameQAQ

are you sure you want to translate the early demo version? it's kinda small and awkward. but if you want, of course : ) do you need files or something ??

(+1)

Thank you for your permission❤ (ɔˆз(ˆ⌣ˆc). At present, I am still learning how to translate renpy game, this is my first attempt to translate a game in Chinese haha. According to the tutorial, I only need the files in the demo,and I got it('◡')

(+1)

I finished the translation! I put the video on the bilibili site(【自汉化|微病娇女性向】你创造的机器人似乎有些过于依恋你了——《Magenta》汉化发布+实况录制_单机游戏热门视频) and put the url of the game on itch in the blurb of the video.But because of my limited English, I probably didn't translate it very well (especially Tiller's part)😭.And because I'm not a famous uploader, the publicity is actually very limited. Sorry about that.😭

YAYYYYYY GOOD JOB!!!!!! THANK YOU FOR YOUR WORK! don't be sorry at all. 

you must be proud of your progress, we all start with a limited skill, but soon, with practice, it'll become better. so I hope you'll keep translating other games as well, become even better and get the attention you deserve! 

I'll check the video a bit later, I'm very curious! can I add this link to the game page? <3

(+1)

Thank you for the encouragement! It means a lot to me and is really warm and sweet😭.I do still have a lot to learn.Of course you can add the link, it would be my pleasure!🥺The video I recorded may be a bit sketchy though, because my level of video production is also limited.😢So it's okay if you decide not to add it in the end.😊

added link to the game page! thank you again!!!
I'm very happy ^3^

the ARRTTTT

YESSS the art . the art makes us inspired
thank you for your comment!

(+1)

amazing demo!! the art style & soundtrack create a very immersive atmosphere, and the cast are so fun, even the characters that aren't a focus?? really am fascinated by zu so far though,,, check it out if you have the time, finier definitely earned my follow ٩(ˊᗜˋ*)و ♡ can't wait to see the full game!! (though obviously take all the time u need author, ur health comes first!!)

thank you a lot!!!!!!!!! I agree, you know, for those months of working I realised that the health is actually more important. and I hope everyone, every creator, player or any other person thinks about their health first. and you too, scrayp, don't forget to take care of your health first!

<3

heh wanted to share this bc i dont think ill finish the fanart but also i think ur game is neat and ur style is sooo cool and gritty

(+1)

THANK YOU SO SOSOSOOFDOSSODFOSIFOSDJO SO MUCH AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARHGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH RAGRHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH.....!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! SORRY FOR THE LATE REPLY I LOVE IT SO MUCH CAN I PLEASE EAT YOUR ART???????????? PLEASE/
THIS IS SO SO SO!!!!!!!!!!!SO GOOD AND CUDDLY AND SOFT AND RRGRGHFR THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

<333333333333333333333333

omggmgmgmf!!! Ur all good and also it's safely made for your consumption lol ꉂ(ˊᗜˋ*)♡

But no THANK YOU for making something that I could brainrot on for a while... Made me realize that I like robots/androids more than I thought

(+3)

This is only just the demo but i LOVED the character designs! Stumbling into characters that look the same in several visual novels gets a little repetitive... So Zu's and the rest of the character's designs were so refreshing for me to look at! i love his atypical appearance and personality ;) and the Story seems very promising as it seems to develop under a cyberpunk-ish ambience, the art was so beautiful too, can't wait to play the full version <33333

THANK YOUUUUUUU!!!! (damnnn I want to put small details in the designs that can tell about the character a bit :D it's not that noticeable in the demo I guess, but the current sprites that I'm making are a bit more detailed)

I'm glad to get such a big comment, thank you a lot! <3

(+7)(-1)

I have been replaying the demo so much, I rarely ever comment on games but Author, you are doing such a good job ahhh!!! I love the concept and characters so much! The art has me mesmerized. I cannot wait for the full release :>

(+1)

thank you a lot!!!!!!!!! <3 (I want to see the full release too, lol, it took more time than planned XD) <3

(+2)

made an account to say i really really want to enjoy this bcs the artstyle looks so good and the plot is interesting but i'm neurodivergent & my brain won't cooperate with me, the font hurts my head so badly and i can't process or comprehend the words written on my screen no matter how hard i try T-T i hope it's possible to change the font for the next update...

thank you! the font will be changed, you'll see it in the full game once it's released, and I'll collect opinions about it! I'm not good with comprehending this font as well, even if I actually wasn't thinking about it while playing the demo before uploading it. I guess my mind just got used to the font in the program where I write the code, so it was just ... ignoring the game font and "generating" the needed words in my head automatically. 

and I'm really sorry for that v.v!

(+3)

(1 edit) (+3)

i'm LOVING it. the colors, the character design and their interactions, their personalities, Zu's and MC's relationshippp. everything is just so interesting to read.

i'd love to follow you on your socials for more updates if there's any, but I can't find them :(((

(+1)

I added tumblr page of the game, you can find the link on the game page! :D thank you for your comment!!!!!!!! <33333

thank you so much!!!

(+2)

the art style is just an overall vibe, so pretty! Zu is so adorable and I'm looking forward to knowing more about him and the lore in the future!

thank you so much!!!!!! the Vibe is important!!! :D 

(+1)

The game is amazing so far and I love the art style. The only downside is I have trouble reading it. I don't have good eyesight, so this game isn't the most accessible for me. I'd love if there were another font option in the preferences. Other than that keep up the good work!!!

(1 edit) (+2)

thank you! I changed the font recently, you can check the latest devlog post (here) to see the screenshots with it. if you do check, can you please tell me if it's better for reading? thank you again! ❤️

(+2)

yes, that's a lot easier to read.^u^

(+4)

Such an interesting and unique style you got going on here! Happy I stumbled here by accident and I'm happy I did. Absolutely adore the idea of parts of an android lighting up with different strong emotions, seems very plausible. Writing may be a bit clumsy at times and scenes jump from one to another a bit too fast but overall this is a great piece! Well done!

(+3)

thank you!!! I'm going to check the dialogues from the beginning to make them a bit better, thank you for pointing it out! ❤️❤️❤️

(+1)

You're welcome. Thank you for making such a wonderful piece!

(+1)
