Death May Come
A game about choices, odd friendships, and surviving… maybe.
You’re searching for the Sacred Fleshpit Fruit.
Legends say it can heal anything—if you can survive the journey. The forest is alive, the guardians are watching, and the line between ally and enemy is… squishy.
In this short visual novel, you’ll explore strange places, meet stranger creatures, and face choices that may (or may not) lead to your survival. (Rated T for Teen)
🕰️ Made in Just Two Weeks!
Death May Come was created for the Imaginary Game Jam 2025, a two-week game jam hosted by the amazing Caxt Nova (https://caxtnova.itch.io/)! Every menu, mini-game, character, and odd bit of sound design was pieced together under a tight deadline, with love, stress, and a very needy puppy on my lap the whole time. XD
