Overview:
Your family passed away in a horrible accident. Your entire world became a spiral of depression. Years of constant loneliness and guilt were all you knew. Now in your fifties, you find yourself at a crossroads. A chance at a new life lays tantalizingly before you. But as you crawl out of your personal hell, you find that something came with you. Something that wants you to stay trapped in the past.

I am the actual author of this game. Please be aware it is a slow burn. A visual novel first and a porn game second. You also don’t get penalized for choosing everyone as this is a harem game of sorts. I hope you enjoy playing as this has been a true labor of love. I’ve included a link in case you are interested in supporting development of On Distant Shores. If not, I completely understand, but I would love if you would share any honest feedback in the comments.

* This feature is in beta right now. I advise saving your game before making any changes. If you click on the red icon for the Character Information screen you will see a new option called “Relationships”. Click on it to see where everyone is at. You can click on any Love Interests relationship text (i.e. Friend, Lover, etc.) and it will cycle through the available options. Most will cycle between Friend and Lover, but some of them have more options. Two things to note. One, it does not become available until Day 22. It would break the game if you used it before then. Second, it has a number of sanity checks. If you try and change a relationship at a bad time during the game, it will stop you and give the reason why. I don’t recommend changing anything unless you specifically feel that it is hurting your enjoyment of the game, or a Love Interest isn’t what you wanted them to be (either through choices you made, or from previous bugs in the game).
** I have elected to use one of the cruncher apps for the android release. I have tested it and everything seems to run normally. This has gotten the Android version down to 1GB in size. I will be doing this going forward to manage the 2GB limitation of side-loaded APKs.
v0.12 Release
— Day 36 & 37 content
v0.11 Release
— Day 34 & 35 content
— Fixes some minor syntax issues
v0.10 Release
– Day 32 & 33 content
– Added images of the NPCs for the character information screen (most are mild nudity for fun)
– Fixed some very minor bugs from previous releases (spelling and fixed a couple renders)
v0.9a Release
IMPORTANT: No new content from 0.9, this is a bug fix only.
–This release fixes two bugs. 1. The door error on Day 31 and 2. Properly setting the Tien_Relationship variable
Note: If you choose to stay in a relationship with Tien you don’t have to download this revision. You are fine. If you elected to friendzone Tien you either need to download this update and replay Day 30 & 31, or you can manually set the variable. If you wish to manually set the variable load your save file from the end of 0.9 and open a console screen. From there type in: Tien_Relationship=0 then resave your game.
