Silver Bells

Silver Bells
This game contains very mild themes of age play (people who enjoy a dynamic of young person/caretaker). It's meant to be a cute Young Adult/New Adult rom-com style for anyone who's worked retail and needed a relief whether that be from a snowball fight in the parking lot or dreaming about exciting run-ins with a local cutie.

Click through text or select "Auto" for the text to play through automatically. When presented with options, click on the bar with the action you prefer. Press "Esc" to summon a menu which includes save/load screens. If you encounter any errors, you can "Ignore" them. You can also go back in the script by using the scroll wheel. If you have downloaded the game, it will also save your script history based on the routes you've already played, so you can "skip" previously seen dialogue per whichever version you're playing.

This game does have multiple routes based on a naughty/nice dynamic and two endings. An indicator will show if a choice adds to your "naughty" or "nice" value, the total of which may affect Sugarplum's mindset, whether that be closer to rebellious "brat" or sweet little "princess." For example, if you make a "naughty" choice, but your overall value is "nice," you may get a "nice" branch later in the game and vice versa. Some choices may not affect your naughty/nice, but will have minor influence on the story. Regardless, you are going to find an outlet for the energy and exhaustion that accompany retail in the holiday season.

I made this project in school to combat thesis depression and eventually developed it into a full novel on Amazon and Kindle Unlimited which can be found here. Since this is an older project, I don't currently have an easy way to access or edit the files, so please approach this project with the knowledge that I poured love into it as a single-person development, writing, programming, and making art all within a trimester.

Thank you for your time. I hope Silver Bells brings some brightness to your day!
