Roses and Thorns
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Lost, alone and on the verge of frostbite, you travel through the ferocious French Alps in search of refuge. With a sudden blizzard on the horizon and a brush of death , the thought of being back in your old village feels like a dream that it is getting further and further away. That is until you wake up in a strange new place. A castle of some sorts, filled with warm fires and calming silence. The owner of this mysterious place allows you to stay while the freezing blizzards rages on
Finally, a friendly face after so many months of being alone
.
.
.
Yet you can't help but remind him of someone. Someone he knew a long time ago
And he won't let you leave any time soon

💗💗 you are very welcomee :DD
I cried so much at this game..it s so good..
Thank you. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
I love this game so much but I swear if my family sees me playing this I'm dead as hell.........................(my cousin walks in while i'm playing 10 sec later) oh......
Some of the best games are the ones that you're family will have a heart attack if they see 😔✊
"what a beautiful name for a beautiful GIRL" ... well guess I'm a girl now
I'm sorry. I've been meaning to implement a pronoun system but I ran out of time for the game jam. Do you know of any resources where I can learn how to do that? :)
I'm pretty sure there are some you can find itch.io! I remember downloading this Pronoun Tool for Ren'Py by npckc (itch.io) but I never had the chance to fully test it out since I was too busy. I do hope it works for you! If you cant figure it out and you wish to make your game inclusive, then switching the terms to a more gender neutral one would probably be better! I hope all goes well for you <3
Thank you!
Can you add it to Android please?
Hi!!! do you have an endings guide? I''ve really been struggling to get ending 2
Here you go: https://lunarmoonstudios.itch.io/roses-have-thorns/devlog/693954/ending-guide :)
Oh! Is this still not the full ver yet?
Honestly I'm not sure whether I'm done with this project just yet as I might update it in the future. I sent it in for a game jam so it's still sort of disorganised (and FAR from professional looking). But yeah it's basically finished story-wise
sounds like this is gonna be a great game!
Thank you!
I absolutely LOVED this game!!! hope to see a full ver of the game with cgs in the future!!
Thank you! I'm really glad you liked it☺️
