About This Game

Jake Turner used to know exactly who he was.

A rising athlete. A man with a future. Someone going somewhere.
Then one injury sends him crashing back to the small town he thought he’d outgrown.

Now, surrounded by familiar streets, old expectations, and the quiet pressure of starting over, Jake finds himself pulled in directions he can no longer ignore. Everyone around him seems to have their own idea of who he should be, but for the first time, Jake has to ask himself what he actually wants.

As old feelings resurface and his attraction becomes harder to ignore, Jake is forced to face a truth he spent years suppressing, convinced it had no place in the man he was supposed to be. But if he’s no longer the man he used to be… who is he now?

FEATURES

  • A grounded, character-driven visual novel centered around Jake's journey.

  • Multiple romantic paths, with relationships that develop naturally throughout the story.

  • A cast of fully voiced characters.

  • Multiple endings based on the path Jake takes.

  • Cinematic 3D visuals and animated sequences.

  • An original soundtrack built around the moods and themes of Jake's story.

  • Drama, romance and plenty of lighter moments along the way.

Jake's return home brings him closer to people he never expected and forces him to reconsider relationships he thought he understood.

There isn't one right way for Jake to move forward. Explore different relationships, make choices that reflect the person you want him to become, and discover where those choices ultimately lead.

What Remains of Me is a grounded, character-driven visual novel about identity, masculinity, longing, and the difficult process of figuring out who you are when the life you planned falls apart around you.

Because sometimes losing everything you thought defined you is the only way to discover what remains.
