Overview:
In Single again you play the role of Frank, a widower and soon to be divorcee. The story begins with Frank moving back to the Loft he used to share with his first wife. A place he never wanted to go back to after her untimely death. You lead Frank as he starts his life over again, soon he begins to find companionship and love in places he never expected to.
Frank Shavell – The person you play the game as.
Abigail Shavell – Franks adopted daughter.
Lilith Oxton – Abigails step sister
Rebecca Oxton – Liliths older sister.
Vanessa Day and Elizabeth Carter-Day – Lesbian couple that Frank is working for.
Gameplay
You play the story through the eyes of Frank in a first person perspective. If you have played a visual novel before you already know the deal. If not, basically you read for a bit and make choices every so often that affects the story in some way. That’s really about it.
That being said there are a two things that I think are different from most other visual novels. First Single again has a much bigger emphasis on the characters and story, as a result there are fewer “choice” moments than in similar games. But some of those choices will have major influences on how different parts of the story play out. For example a choice made in the morning could completely change the story in the evening or even days later.
Second, there’s no point system in the game, hidden or otherwise. When I’ve played other similar games and come to a “choice” it always just devolves into going though each choice and seeing which one gives a point and that’s the one I go with. To me that doesn’t really seem like a choice at all and negates any replayability the game may have. I wanted to avoid that so I just didn’t put a point system in. Right or wrong the choices you make are yours.

I knew this update would not go over well with some of the decisions that I went with. The characters, namely Frank and Lilith acting outside how they’ve been written in the past. But I didn’t expect the update to be (pretty much) universally hated. So, I’ve gone back and re-written parts of it.
The main issue people seemed to have was Frank pushing Abigail into a relationship with Lilith. That has been removed and all other dialog that came from that has been changed.
v1.24.1
N/A
v1.23
- It starts on Monday morning after Lilith stayed over.
- The update ends on Thursday night.
- Meiko is the main focus of this update but Lilith and Rebecca also get some decent screen time.
- Abby fans… Sorry. (She will get her time to shine, I promise.)
v1.22
- It starts right where 1.21 left off, with Frank on his way to dinner at Beth and Nessa’s place.
- Covers the rest of Saturday and all of Sunday.
- If you don’t sleep with Beth or haven’t before, you will no longer get the option to sleep with her.
v1.21
- It takes place over one and a half days. The second day is split up and 1.22 will continue where 1.21 leaves off.
- I have a bad habit of making choices that resolve in future updates. I really need to stop that. So, most of the choices in this update are just dialog changes, with two exceptions.
- I tried to resolve as many old choices as I could in this update.
- One of the choices will have a major change in the story. Namely where they go on vacation. I’ve talked about this on Discord, but the short version is that each choice will take multiple updates to complete. I’ll make a poll when the time comes and you guys can decide which vacation is created first.
v1.20
- This update will cover Wednesday (The rest of Frank’s trip) and all of Thursday (Becca and Lilly’s moving day).
- This update is front loaded with a ton of lewd stuff including Becca’s story for Abby winning Best girl as well as what happened with Lilly the night before.
v1.19
- This update takes place on Tuesday and lasts almost the entire day. What happens after the update ends will be played out in the next update. (Remember Becca’s fetish)
- Lilly is the major focus of this update. (Lilly fans rejoice!)
- The side images for all the girls have been redone, as well as created a few more sets.
- Added a slider so the you can change the text window opacity.
v1.18
- This update focuses on the first day of Franks “trip”.
- This by bar the biggest update I’ve made. About %20 bigger than the next biggest.
- Someone is posting my links for downloads on pirate sites. So if the links aren’t working it means I’m in the middle of changing them… Again. (Seriously dude…)
- After the new year We’ll do another best girl poll.
v1.17
- This update centers on the Sunday pool day. One of the people Discord had the idea of of incorporating the images I made for Lilly’s best girl win into the game. So from now on whoever wins each best girl poll, the images made to celebrate their victory will be added into the game as Becca’s sexy story time (You’ll see what I mean in 1.17).
- I went back and made even more spelling and grammar fixes to previous versions. (Thanks to everyone that helps with those).
- I’m not huge fan of the side images the way they are now, I’m gong to re do all of them for each girl. That may be in the next update or a little ways down the road.
- I’m going to be making a poll soon about Meiko that will change her role in the overall story.
v1.16
- This update finishes off date night with the girls (Most of the update), as well as dinner with Beth and Vanessa the next night.
- The next update will cover all of Sunday (Girls in Swimsuits!)
- Starting with this update, every update going forward will have some sort of sexy times in it, though you may have to look for them.
v1.15
- 1.14 and 1.15 have been added.
- Side images for most characters have been remade using their gen 8 models.
- The menu image changes depending on how far into the game you are.
- More spelling and grammar fixes to earlier parts of the game
Chapter 1
- The text box is now permanent and will only disappear during choices and non-looping videos (No more flashing in and out).
- Dissolves were added between images where the camera doesn’t move (Gives a more animated look to scenes).
- Non-looping videos can now be skipped. (no longer have to wait for them to play out before continuing).
- Fixed a ton of spelling/grammar mistakes (Well over a thousand corrections).
Game changes
- Re-made 440 images (from 0.01 to 0.05).
- Re-made 3 videos (The ones when Abigail shows off her new haircut).
- Some dialog was re-written/ellipsis removed (Just minor changes to clean it up).
- Extra dialog between Frank and Rebecca during 0.13 scene (Added some story that I forgot to add when writing the scene).
- New Jess story added at the end of 0.13.
Other notes
- Old saves won’t work with this version (you can use ctrl or tab to skip what you want).
- Because old saves don’t work there is no update file.
- I didn’t add any audio (That is still planned but will have to wait).
- Reduced the quality of the credits video so the entire file size would be under 4 gigs.
- Now that the chapter is finished I’ll look into getting an android port made.
