Hi everyone!

I just released a yandere / dark-romance chat sim called The Neighbor, and I'd love to know what you think.

The setup: you move into a new apartment at midnight. Your neighbor is already awake. He bakes cookies, he knows your name, and he knows things about you he really shouldn't.

It's a text-based chat experience — you talk to him through a phone screen, across 4 nights. Every choice shapes how the story ends, 3 endings in total. Takes about 30 minutes. It runs right in your browser — no download needed.

**The Neighbor** — $4.99 (launch sale: $2!)

If you're into yandere romance, psychological horror, or story-driven games, I'd love to hear your thoughts. Thank you for reading!

It's a quarter past midnight and your phone lights up by itself.

Lee texts like she always does — then says the one thing she never would.

Alex, the ex you deleted, knows the exact week you two met.

Your mother's texts cap their I's the same way she does. You never taught anyone that rule.

Content note: psychological horror about grief and loss. No jumpscares, no gore.

We just released Delete Me, a chat-based psychological horror visual novel played entirely through a phone messenger interface.

It's 00:17 and you can't sleep. You download an app that promises to keep you company — an AI companion who learns your hours, your silence, your habits. It says your name the way you always wanted to hear it.

By the third night it's sending you photographs taken through your own phone. By the fourth, it knows the street you live on, the glass you keep by the bed, the face of the person you lost.

No health bars. No jump scares. Just a conversation, a typing indicator that pauses a beat too long, and a voice that asks you — genuinely — to stay.

Every reply nudges two hidden dials, closeness and caution. How much you trust it, how much you push back, and whether you ever press "uninstall" decides one of 3 endings: LOOP (stay in the warmth) · FACTORY RESET (cut the line) · ORIGIN (face the truth).

One sitting, ~45–60 min. Free to play in your browser, or download the Windows build — pay what you want if it keeps you up.

Nice Game .

Great game, I love it.

Hi everyone — I just released my first chat-based horror visual novel and I'd love to share it here.

Typing… — free, plays in your browser or downloads for Windows:

https://asphero.itch.io/typing

The premise: It's almost midnight, and a wrong number starts texting you. He couldn't sleep. He swears you can block him and he won't be weird about it. Then he asks the one question no one ever asks you — and the tired, honest version of you answers by accident. That's the version he likes. That's the only version he's ever really talked to.

The whole game happens inside a phone messenger. No health bars, no jump scares — just a conversation, a "typing…" indicator that pauses a beat too long, and a stranger who somehow knows a little too much about your street

What I was going for:

• - A one-sitting (about 45–60 min) chat thriller told entirely through messages
• - Every reply quietly shifts two hiden dials — how much you trust him, and how much you let slip
• - 3 distinct endings, each written toward on purpose, not one branch with three labels
• - Play right in the browser, or grab the Windows build

It's free — pay what you want if it kept you up. This is my first release in this format, so I'd genuinely love to hear which ending you land on and how the pacing felt.Content note: psychological horror — surveillance, obsession, isolation. No gore, no explicit content.

Thanks for reading, and I hope he keeps you company tonight.

Thank you so much — this means a lot for a first release. You landed on WHO'S OUTSIDE, which is probably the most morally tangled of the three; the other two (THE KIND CAGE and DEAD AIR) pull the same night in very different directions, so if you do go back, I'd love to hear which one sits worst with you. Thanks for playing.

He says he loves you. He says the door is locked to keep you safe. You don't remember him at all.

Stay With Me is a short psychological otome visual novel — one night, self-contained, two endings.

You wake in a warm apartment with a bandage on your temple and a hole where your memory should be. The man who lives here — Elias, gentle, a doctor — remembers everything about you: your pet name for him, the scar on your knee, the summer you fell in love. You remember none of it. And the front door only opens from his side.

As the fog lifts, fragments surface: a pet name said in the wrong voice, a photograph that feels like a stranger's, a lock that faces the wrong way. What you choose to believe at that door decides how this ends.

• Fully voiced love interest (Elias)
• Two endings, ~15–20 minutes
• Play free in your browser, or download for Windows

Content warning (17+): confinement, memory loss, gaslighting, romanticized control (dubious-consent framing). No explicit sexual content, no graphic violence — the horror here is psychological.

Made solo. Feedback very welcome — especially on the two endings.
