About Finding Cloud 9

Finding Cloud 9 is an adult visual novel and dating sim by Onyx Decadence, built in Ren’Py with animated 3DCG art. You play a college guy whose promising summer turns dangerous when he is pressured into drug production to shield people near him. The game follows his attempts to keep an ordinary life while a criminal path, relationships, desire, and money make his moral judgments less clear. His choices shape whether he remains the person he wants to be or becomes someone who justifies harsh actions.

The current build is v0.9.7, released on September 19, 2026, and development is ongoing. It runs on Windows, Linux, and Mac, in English, without censorship. The latest update added more than 600 renders and roughly 100 animations, along with typo corrections, several bug fixes, and a few improvements. Previous changes also addressed quest progression issues, added gallery replay content, and adjusted interface elements such as the main character name color picker.

Developer's description

Finding Cloud 9 is a slow-burn, story-driven adult visual novel about a college guy whose promising summer takes a dangerous turn when he’s coerced into drug production to protect the people close to him. As he juggles a normal life with a criminal one, intimate relationships, desire, and money begin to blur his sense of right and wrong. His naivety is slowly broken, and he becomes more realistic about his situation. Every choice he makes pushes him closer to becoming either the man he believes he is… or someone who learns to ruthlessly justify anything. This is a story about temptation, escalation, and the cost of wanting more. Whether you find your Cloud 9, or lose yourself chasing it, is up to you. ​
