Ellen Vague
About Ellen Vague
Ellen Vague is an adult visual novel by LongJohnnyWalker, made in Ren'Py with 3D CG artwork. You play as Ellen, a bestselling erotica author who takes a vacation to overcome writer's block and seek inspiration. Her trip leads to Bryatt Fowls, a quiet town full of odd residents, a strange corpse on the road, a sheriff who is a secret fan, and repeated chances for a refined writer with questionable morals. The story mixes paranormal events, parody, and romance while following Ellen as she explores the town and its unexplained troubles.
The current build is v0.2, released January 21, 2024, and development is ongoing. It runs on Windows, Linux, Mac, and Android, in English, with no censorship. The update adds up to 28,000 words of text, about 400 renders, more than 2.5 hours of voice files, new animations, and several new scenes, including two additional possible scenes. It also includes render bug fixes, fixes an endless loop when visiting the hotel before the diner, and adds Mac and Android builds, the latter tested by the creator and the former untested.
Developer's description
When bestselling Erotica author Ellen Vague finds herself faced with writer's block, she decides to take a vacation to...find inspiration. But not everything goes to plan, as the quiet town of Bryatt Fowls proves just as quirky as the local townsfolk - and that is before you add the dead man in the middle of the road, the town sheriff who turns out to be a secret fan, and the many opportunities that arise for a highbrow writer with low morals. Join Ellen on her journey to discover the town, the people, and the omnipresent turmoil of unexpected, unexplainable, and undeniably otherworldly occurrences.
