About Shooting Star

Shooting Star is a Ren'Py kinetic novel by SxRobert VN, using rendered 3D scenes with motion. You follow a 23-year-old man whose father died, forcing him to leave university and work. After losing his job, he has nowhere to live except the apartment of Sofia, an old classmate who also resents him. The story shows Sofia through his eyes and explains why she behaves as she does. It mixes humor, drama, and adult romance, and it has no clean right or wrong answers.

The current release is v1.0, dated May 29, 2023, and development is finished. It runs on Windows, Linux, and Mac, with English text and no censorship. The latest changelog says the update completed the story, added 780 images with 150 new, 25 animations with 6 new, two bonus items, a replay scene, and a new main menu, while fixing a bug involving the last bonus image.

Developer's description

This game tells the story of a 23 years old guy who is dissatisfied with his life. Since his father died, he had to leave university and start working. After losing his job, the only place he can live is an old classmate, Sofia's apartment. The only problem is that they hate each other. Through the eyes of the protagonist, you can get to know Sofia and why she behaves the way she does. You have to decide what is important in life. There will be both humor and drama. Sometimes you’ll feel bad about the protagonist’s decisions. But believe me, there are no right or wrong answers, just like in real life. (maybe with a little bit more sex )​
