Double Exposure
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Our late submission to Yuri Game Jam 2019. The game is around 20.000 words, featuring original sprites, cgs and music.
Synopsis:
Serena has worked for years to attain her invaluable position as a world-renowned photographer. She lives her life away from social situations, concerning herself almost exclusively with honing her craft.
Her life takes an interesting turn when one morning a young and lively model named Lizzie starts working with her, bringing along foregone bagage that might be too heavy for Serena to handle.
Team:
HeWhoYawns- Writing, Scripting
Howard Jones- Sprite & CG art, UI art and programming
Tavian St. James- Music
We've all put quite a lot of work into it and we'd love to hear what you think!

It's been two years and I'm still obsessed with this game. I want more TT
Hey! I just wanted to say that I'm still alive and still planning on returning to making VNs at some point.
I really appreciate this comment btw, it's really awesome to be reminded of my little adventure from two years ago, and I love hearing from people that were impacted by it.
So thanks a lot!
Aww, that makes me so happy! This is my favorite yuri VN ever, I have the soundtrack and art and story permanently burned into my memory TT I recommend it to all my friends, I'm glad you're still interested in making more VNs!!
Love the two characters they're too cute!!!! I completed both endings with oral translation to Chinese:https://www.bilibili.com/video/BV1s64y1Y7wS
Beautiful, dark, and unconventional. Very well done.
The one thing that bothered me a little was the bad ending, which was so abrupt that it felt like an afterthought.
Not gonna lie, I was expecting something short, cute, simple & shallow. And I got suprised, when I discovered what this game has to offer. And it was a good suprise.
The story is great, deep and touches a serious topics. I really enjoyed reading through scenes and I was curious, what happens next.
Good job!
Yup nice !
A smaaall bug at the end of the good route when the "fullscreen text" resume with the old previous text. It's like "she is about to get crushed by a car" "I kiss here earnestly" :o
Very nice story, extremely well written and perfect choice of music, providing the perfect atmosphere.
The second ending where you choose not to go back seemed a bit weird to me though, I don't know if something bugged or if it's really that cut off. It just left me kind of hanging, not knowing what now happened.
An impressive visual literary achievement - well-written conversations, and a strong and steadily building core narrative. Ending is paced slightly awkwardly, but overall I'd recommend this to anyone who likes a good OELVN.
this was wonderfully written, the characters were engaging and real, the story was a heartfelt and captivating one, and the art and music helped bring it to life. this was a really great visual novel and i loved it!
Great art, great music, charming story. Would very much recommend!
Emotional story + beautiful art and music!
Ending was quite abrupt (music cuts and instantly sent to menu), but otherwise this has got to be one of my favorite VNs!
Oh wow that’s very flattering. Really glad to hear you liked it that much! We’re already working on a version with “smoother” and more fancy coding.
Wow, this was surprisingly intense. But above all, really good. I'm really glad I didn't miss that post-deadline release, your game is my new favourite from this year's YGJ. :)
Thanks a lot! We did our best and are very happy to hear it resonated with you!
I honestly generally don't expect much from game jam games, but this one was pretty good. It was short but well made. The story was great, though it did feel a bit rushed at times. Also, since I'm a grammar nazi, I couldn't help but notice a few typos. Anyway, I liked it and I think it'd be cool if you guys made another VN. I'd definitely play it.
Thank you for your feedback! Really happy you enjoyed it!
We're always looking to improve, so we'd greatly appreciate it if you could tell us in particular some of the parts that felt rushed.
In particular, I'd have to say everything that went with the second cg. It seemed kinda out of nowhere. Sorry, I don't know how else to explain without spoilers.
I just finished playing your game and I really enjoyed it. The characters are interesting, I was moved by their story. Plus the music is super cool. Thank you!
Thank you for your kind words!
Thanks a lot for the feedback! Glad you liked it overall!
