What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Long Story Short is a big story that I release chapter by chapter, and I'm making it on my own. Early Access lets you play each new chapter as soon as it's ready, instead of waiting years for the whole story, and your bug reports and feedback help me polish every chapter along the way. I'm working on it around the clock, and my main goal is to keep improving the game for everyone who chooses to give it a chance.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“I'm not planning to rush the game just for the sake of finishing it. I've been developing it since mid-2019, and every version keeps growing as the story and the choices branch out, so it will take longer than the end of 2026 I first planned. I'd rather not promise a date I can't keep, so I'll update this section when the end is in sight.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“Since I'm releasing the game in 'chapters,' you can expect that the full version will follow the same structure as the Early Access version. The primary difference will be that the full version will provide closure for all of the narrative paths.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game currently has 10 chapters, and the first part of chapter 11 is available as an alpha on the public_alpha beta branch. The full chapter 11 (V0.11, the bar night) is coming next. As the game features multiple paths, each player will have a unique experience. A single playthrough takes around 6-8 hours, and if you want to explore every path and try out all the different outcomes, you can expect to spend 15 hours or more.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The price will gradually rise as we ship new content and features.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“I know where the story is going, and the main plot and the characters follow my own plan. Within that plan, I love hearing from players: I read the Steam discussions, the Bug Reports section and the Discord, and when a suggestion fits the game, I sometimes add it. The best places to share ideas or report bugs are the Steam discussions or the game's Discord (the link is on this page and in the game's main menu).”

About This Game

The Story

You will be playing as a guy who's never really clicked with girls. You'd much rather spend your time on the computer playing video games than dealing with real-life relationships. However, things quickly change. Your best friend, Joe, has made a significant change in his life, and he is there to pull you out of your comfort zone into a new lifestyle that you never thought you'd experience. Vanessa, Joe's girlfriend, and Ann, her longtime friend, are just two of the girls you'll encounter early on. Are you going to build a relationship with sweet, shy Ann? Maybe you'll corrupt her instead? Heck, why not try to steal Vanessa away from Joe?

The Experience

Long Story Short is for people who like to explore and experience different alternatives! While the first playthrough can be intriguing and exciting, the second and third playthroughs might be even more surprising. It will enable you to see the scenes from other perspectives or find out what happened when you chose to do something different. The story has an end goal, but the way to get there will vary. I also plan to explore many adult themes and fetishes before wrapping up the story. I hope you will explore how the choices impact the characters, their interactions, and the eventual outcome.

Choices First

Long Story Short puts choices at the forefront. Experience a game where the depth of choices is like never before. Think of a scenario, and chances are, you can play it out. Whether you desire to hold onto relationships or take risks by sharing them, the game bends to your will. And with continuous updates, if it's not possible today, it might just be tomorrow. Dive into a world where your choices don't just matter—they define everything.

The Girls

Every girl stands apart with her distinct personality and characteristics. From a shy, socially awkward soul to one who’s unabashed in her passions, to a childhood friend with deep-rooted connections. Each girl has been crafted to feel unique, and every single one is open to romance. The path they tread? Entirely up to you. Choose to cherish them close or influence their journeys in directions you never thought possible.
