About Ethereal Ties

Ethereal Ties is a 3DCG, animated Ren'Py adventure and dating sim by NevenVN, with a male protagonist. You play someone whose ordinary life is disturbed by strange events; after an unexpected death, you are sent back in time and gain the power to reset the day by dying again. As you meet intriguing characters, build relationships, and pursue romance, you uncover the hidden world of Diviners, people with extraordinary powers, while trying to survive in a society that wants to destroy you. The story blends fantasy, dating sim, and monster girl themes with suspense, mystery, and supernatural twists.

The current build is v0.6, released August 27, 2026, and development is ongoing. It runs on Windows, Linux, Mac, and Android, in English, with no censorship. The latest changelog reports more than 4,300 renders and 37 animations, nearly three times the amount in v0.5, and says new features are available in-game through a notice. It also lists a Holiday Special 1.0 entry with over 4,300 renders and 32 animations, plus earlier updates that added renders, animations, a new stats screen, reworked scenes, and Patreon-exclusive bonus content.
