About this game

What this game is, in the developer's words

A character-driven, story-rich visual novel about rebuilding your life after juvenile detention. Forge friendships, find romance, and confront the scars of your troubled past.

You’re a young man, fresh out of juvenile detention, sent to a halfway house to rebuild your life. Over the next six months, you'll forge lasting friendships, heal old wounds, and define your own future.

Meet a cast of vibrant characters:

  • Samantha: a caring but strict house matron with an uninhibited side.

  • Emily: a fiery redhead with a soft heart hidden beneath a sharp temper.

  • Ashley: a brash, magnetic presence who hides more than she lets on.

  • And more: friends, foes, and unexpected connections await.

Halfway House is a story rich, character driven visual novel blending humor, heart, and mature themes.

A story of second chances, finding connection in unexpected places. The narrative unfolds over months of shared meals, tense standoffs, quiet breakthroughs, and deepening bonds.

Relationships grow, moments carry weight, and every scar, visible or otherwise, tells a story.
