A bloglike/diarylike, more or less linear, short visual novel about the life of a socially awkward shut-in. Probably the worst/most boring visual novel you have ever played. (It doesn't even have a story)
Indie, Simulation, Free To Play, Casual · More free games
Explore the mundane and quirky moments of a socially awkward shut-in’s existence in The Loophole That Is My Life. This casual, free-to-play game presents a more or less linear, diary-like experience that might just be the most boring—and yet strangely compelling—visual novel you've ever encountered.
About this game
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
The game includes:
- About 2,000 words (15% of which are I)
- Bad pixelated black & white images
- No real choices that would affect the game in any way*
- The lack of a story
(The choices in the game don't really matter because why would they, and besides, everybody hates making choices so you can thank me later for taking that burden off of you)

Still working on the game!
I'm not really good at announcing stuff but anyway. I just wanted to let you all know that I'm still working on the game, although I (had to) abandon it a couple times, but that's just how I deal with stuff. I also wanted to clarify that the game doesn't really feature a story at this moment in time and I don't know if it ever will. It's basically just my problems with life written down in a kind of interactive way. I don't know if people will ever play this, because I still can't think of any reason why someone would actually want to play this. I also thought about maybe releasing this as a chapter-by-chapter sort of thing so let me know if you would appreciate something like that more than a classic release. (Although it will still take some time until I'm happy with releasing the game or something about it.) Probably the last thing I want to go over is some stuff with the steam page. I don't really know if I'm going to include any memes or "humor" as stated on the game's page. I will probably rework the entire page a couple of times anyway. I don't know if this game is ever going to be a thing (and I probably shouldn't have bought the steam store slot so early in "development") but at the moment I'm kind of positive. I still want to thank you for wishlisting the game and hope to be back with some good news in the future.
