Once Upon a Time in Bayview v0.1.3 (English)

Once Upon a Time in Bayview puts you in the shoes of a college student navigating relationships in a coastal university town. This adult visual novel focuses heavily on character development and psychological storytelling rather than just rushing through scenes.

The game uses an affection and energy system that actually affects how interactions play out. You’ll explore the city, participate in various events, and play mini-games while building connections with different characters. The developer included scene-specific videos which is a nice touch that sets it apart from typical VNs that rely only on static images.

LoneWolfStudioX seems to be going for quality over quantity here. The writing feels more mature than most games in this genre, and the coastal setting gives it a unique vibe compared to the usual college dorm scenarios.
