Alright, proper introduction time! Heya, I'm Akua (@akuakourin.bsky.social), #vndev and #otomedev! #VisualNovel Projects I (co-)lead are under my dev handle "Sweets & Sins Creations" (formerly Demon's Decoy). You can discover sweetness and/or the darkness with me~♥

Most recent ongoing Otome Dev Project based on Chinese Fantasy and "Beauty and the Beast" with an Eldritch Dragon twist set in a Frozen North. Depicted is the MC Mei with the "beast" love interests.

A co-lead short Otome project with Azuremia! Appetite Amor is food fantasy romance between a warrior girl and a cook from another world. The game features sparkly, delicious food CGs like this starry milky way tea with macarons!

A retelling of the Little Match Girl by Hans Christian Andersen with soft Shoujosei vibes, it features two endings, with one following the original outcome for our MC Poppy. Depicted is the MC holding up one of the matches during a cold winter night, the warm glow illuminating her lonely expression.

A WIP NSFW yandere Otome project, Lycoris. It has been on the backburner because I realized I needed more experience with other projects before I tackle this passion project. Depicted is the MC Marika (renameable), blindfolded with gloved hands reaching out to her.

Tsukihime's remake and Mahoyo are two visually stunning visual novels with similar art direction, but executed in different ways. I love them both so I wanted to take a deeper look into their visual direction! ✨ read it here: arimiadev.com/comparing-th...
