Hey hey Heroes, Travelers, and Wandering NPCs, here we are with another Kickstarter support post! For those of you new, here, Let’s Show Our Support posts highlight current crowdfunding campaigns for indie games (usually VNs and OELVNs). I give you guys the basic rundown of the game and the perks of supporting the game’s campaign, as well as links to all the relevant game related pages and sites.
This time around, I’m covering an upcoming Sci-Fi 18+ BL visual novel Synthetic Lover! BL games are starting to crop up left and right, but it’s been awhile since I’ve seen a sci-fi boys love title in the works. It’s been a few years since Starfighter and Break Chance Memento, so it’s about time we get another sci-fi boys love game!
About The Game
Synthetic Lover is an upcoming fully voiced 18+ boys love sci-fi visual novel that offers a welcome shift from the usual slice-of-life and fantasy BL titles on the market.
In the year of 2066, biologically engineered humanoids known as biots make up a large percentage of the workforce.
The protagonist of Synthetic Lover is one such biot and, like the rest of his colleagues, he lives to serve a single purpose – to fulfill his pre-programmed vocation. In his case, that’s to be a companion in an adult entertainment center known as Dollhouse.
Biots are servants who exist as lifeless dolls until being activated upon request, their self-awareness is sealed off by design, taking with it their ability to think or feel of their own free will… That’s how the protagonist’s days go until the chance appearance of an opportunistic thief with a mysterious device in his possession…
–Official Synopsis
Synthetic Lover will take players on a journey to discover what it truly means to be human. Step into the shoes of an artificial intelligence biot as they navigate the ups and downs of human life, from the overwhelming emotions and anxieties to the small joys and experiences. Connect with a diverse cast of character, foster bonds, and maybe even find love along the way…
Game Features
Synthetic Lover will be a commercial release, supporting the Kickstarter at the CA$31($23 USD) level will get you a copy of the game upon its release. The game will be available for Windows, Mac, and Linux.
Hours of Immersive Gameplay
Synthetic Lover offers an intense gameplay experience with two distinct routes and two unique love interests to romance. Immerse yourself in the inventive world building and characters as you navigate the highs and lows of your new life. Your choices in the game will have a significant impact on the progression of the story while also determining your success with your chosen companion.
*If the campaign reaches the CA$18000 stretch goal an additional poly romance route will be added.
Gorgeous Visuals including Uncensored 18+ Content
Synthetic Lover will have 24 scenes and 18 gorgeous CGs to enjoy. Because Synthetic Lover is an 18+ BL visual novel, you can expect some adult content with a multitude of NSFW scenes.
Full English Voice Acting
Further immerse yourself in the world of the game with full English voice acting for all of the main cast and side characters. Currently the demo of Synthetic Lover is voiced and the devs would plan to have the final product fully voiced as well.
