Love or Die
Game Description
Date or Die is a horror parody visual novel made as a fun and short Halloween game. You will play as a human transfer student who needs to find a date before the Halloween Dance at Tap School (taken from this website). But wait, turns out not all students who attend the school are humans! Vampires, witches, werecats and even zombies?! And what's with that weird voice in your head? Oh boy, oh boy, try not to get yourself killed before the fun part begins~
*there is a full screen option, but the image becomes slightly stretched
p.s. if you record a gameplay vid, please share, i'd really like to watch it! :D
Earned money will be donated to Vet Ranch - animal rescue organisation.

!!!Bug!!! [fixed]
There seems to be a problem in Yuu's route: when player makes a choice the text box doesn't show even though the game is proceeding. Right now I don't have the solution, but you can still read the text in the text log (you can access it by scrolling up with a mouse or a touchpad during the gameplay) if you're willing. I'm very sorry for the trouble!
Updates
[31.10.2017] Updated to v1.1! Fixed the large text bug in Yuu's route.
[01.11.2017] Updated the name due to request of another game developer who has a game with the same title. Fixed typos in En's route. Fixed Yuu's route text bug.

omg this is so cool! i love viryse! shes so cuteeeee. i def love this! aslso what did you use to make this?
Really cute game!! UwU
Idea was interesting... but execution is, unfortunately, lacking.
Too long pauses, skip text not stopping on new text, narrator using emojis. That was enough for me to drop it at "Nah, I'm good" choice (that featured quite sudden game over).
The protagonist looks so sharp on the vampire costume
echo is just so cute i
Hello. I wanted to say that for some reason i can not play this on mac. Any help please?
i played this a long time ago and really enjoyed! Might try it again.
Found this through this video! I was surprised to see that this game was made three years ago! It’s a wonderful game and I loved all the art! Good Job!
This is a really good game! Me and my friend just finished getting all of the endings! This was totally worth our time! ^^ <3
After I drink Yuu's tea the screen turns red and I can't interact with anything, not even the load button. Is this supposed to happen?
Am I the only one who is replacing the he or him pronouns with her or she instead
A lovely little VN.
The art is simple yet clear. Suits the theme you're going for. May I ask, what was the most challenging aspect of working on this visual novel? Was it creating all the art or something else entirely?
i would say yuu and echo are best girls but they just seriously disturb me.
how do i open up the game? can you please help me.
I may have died twice to Yuu, but to me she is best girl!
The final entry, this was great.
It was short but realy funny, and I love it
Waittttour player, is it a girl or boy???the protagonist doesn't have a determined gender. you can assign your own if you want.
in my opinion all the other characters are not as good as Viryse. SHE IS ABSOLUTELY THE BEST CHARACTER. 100/10. love it and i hope there is another part coming soon! (no rush tho take your time <3) an amazing game like this takes time so dont rush plz! <3
crush you like berry
fuck you
what a game! I really loved what you did with Echo and Viryse as characters. Keep up the great work! this game is nothing short of splendid.
Quite a comfy and a short visual novel. I have got all of the endings, worth a try and nice to play. The design and graphics were great! Continue doing what you are doing.
does it matter\
i really can't ignore the fact that it looks so much like doki doki literature club so freakin obvious
one of my viewers asked me to play this on my channel, So far I love it!!!
First death. I'm not sure if it crashed the game or not but here's part 2!
Whats this,3 months later is episode 3?
Super cute game!
Viryse was my favorite character, especially her design!
I'm a bit hesitant to ask if cosplay is okay for this game since I think some characters are based on real people. Either way, I enjoyed playing it!
Wow! That was fun! I was greatly surprised, it might be a bit short, but so many choices to explore!
I cannot stop going back to see all the bad/good ends!
Really loved it! ヽ(o♡o)/
When breaking the 4th wall, the narrator is funny!
Great job! (^_^)ｂ
And the arts so "Kawaii" !!!!
I WANT MORE!!!!! PLEASE!!!!! (^人^)
4 out of 5. Everything is perfect besides translaition. there are SOOOOOO many grammar errors that it's not even funny. Besides that it has exactly what you want in a visual novel a good story with A-LOT of endings.
If i were to rate this game out of 5 stars i would give it a million stars rating, this game is SOOOO awesome i play it over almost every time i finsih it. I Would love to play more games like this one!
It's a pretty good game, imo. I feel like there's just not enough illustration but it's an amazing game and if i could, i would support this project. Keep up with the good job!
Wonderful story! just played it with my 'sis and it was a beautiful experience. i just had to type this review because it was amazing. for a parody, it was a good one as well. the humour is there when it comes to the narrator and i loved the art style. though, i think there were some things that could'a been added to make it more longer, and there were no bugs as far as i played, it was really cute and i don't regret playing it one bit.
Thank you for the experience! i hope to see you doing many other amazing things in the visual novel community! :)
P.S: You're a chicken nugget.It was alright. I went through all ends pretty damn fast but they were all kind of the same. The storytelling needs more deception to the reader. Its way to straight forward for a horror visual novel. Its very easy to notice what will happen and choices feel more obvious than vague like they should be. The art style is great though very cute. In the story with the gym/cat girl a small spelling mistake where viryse will say "Sports club sctivites are cancelled every month." incase you didn't know. Good job on the visual novel so far.
Okay, but really short and could use some technical tune ups.
No way to change text speed, so either super speed or snail speed.
Ugh, one of the most boring games I've played in a while! I knew I should have deleted it the moment it said no fanservice. What a bore. There are some death bugs, but I suppose it runs pretty fine.
It was fun to try the different routes but i messed up with Viryse. pretty sure it was when i locked the door.
welp all that is good must come to an end. Man this game was amazing
here is the third part and gotta say once more, it was a really cute story with really adorable characters. Thanks for creating this game.
ahhh thank you so much for your kind words! i'm glad you enjoyed the game <3
So I released my first video on the series of this game and I had a absolute ball with it!
thank you so much for playing the game!! > v <
