Reanimated Heart (demo)
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux

Reanimated Heart is a character-driven horror romance visual novel about finding love in a mysterious small town.
In a unique setting inspired by pulp horror, the player has to figure out how to build a life from scratch in a strange dimension where the sun never rises and supernatural creatures live freely. There are three mysterious love interests with their own distinct storylines and secrets to uncover, each of their routes contributing their own perspective to the wider story.
This game is currently in development. It will receive free updates up until the end of Chapter 1. The full game will then be released here and Steam.
This game is no longer being updated on Itch for the foreseeable future. The updates will now be on Patreon until release.





At the moment, this version currently has:
- The prologue introduction and in-progress Chapter 1
- Customizable player name, appearance, pronouns and biological sex
- Dynamic dialogue trees -- hold interesting conversations and define your own personality
- Original artwork and soundtrack
- Unique main menu and game UI
- A character journal and inventory system
- Player choice affects plot
- Three bisexual love interests that will feature explicit scenes that adjust depending on player customization
- Partial voice acting
- Three jobs with unique NPCs -- deliver pot to quirky townsfolk, serve drinks at a punk bar, or become a forest witch's apprentice
- 86,000+ word count (in-progress)
We are aiming for the following features in the future:
- Three chapters with their own plots
- A gallery for music and art
- Multiple endings for each route, good and bad
- Ideally, at least 4-5 hours playtime with high replay value
