Free Fall
Free Fall
═════════════
"Have you ever stood at the edge of a cliff?
That's kind of how it was- meeting him for the first time."
Free Fall is a gritty, haunting interactive fiction novel about love, obsession, and what it means to know someone more intimately than you know yourself. It dares to sample love in all its forms- tender, honest, ugly, and all-consuming. Because love- true love-is about baring yourself, flaws and all.
But not all truths will set you free.
And not all fragile things are soft.
You meet him by chance, or maybe fate. There’s something broken in him, something wild. But it calls to something in you. He makes you feel things you never dreamt possible. Things that make you wonder if you ever really knew what it meant to feel alive until the day you met him.
As your lives entwine, boundaries blur. Between shades of limerence- devotion and obsession. Between who you thought you were… and who you become when you're with him. But the line between love and madness is thinner than you think. Will you choose obsession, love, or cling to what's safe and familiar? And when the time comes—will you try to save him, or will you save yourself, and let him fall.
Every choice you make tilts the balance.
Cling to what's safe and familiar... or let go, and follow him into the depths of obsession.

This is so nice, I played this last night and I really enjoyed this a lot. The song and the atmosphere around it was awesome. I can't wait for this to get updated and finish soon!
omg I love him already tf, can't wait for the next updates :33
Thank you so much ❤️ Update coming soon hopefully :)
Oh I'm so intrigued by him 😭😭😭😭😭I'm so looking forward to the next updates
Thank you! I'm glad you like Abel so far 🙂 I'm hope to spend some more time working on the next chapter soon!
not gonna lie, i've been wanting a game like this for a while
Thanks, I'm glad you're enjoying the ride so far :) Abel is the first yandere I've ever tried to write and every scene with him is so much fun
Very cool concept! Can't wait to see how this pans out!!
Thank you! Abel is nothing if not unpredictable so hopefully you enjoy the wild ride to come :)
Oh yes... oh very much yes....I am not going to lie, I was hooked straight off the beautiful summary. This is a perfect little chapter one set up and introduction, the writing style is so eloquent and poetic in the character and world building but is still relatable in a way that it doesn't make you feel like you're reading Shakespeare or something. It is just a beautiful writing style that makes me feel like you've (author) woven me (reader) directly into the story... sorry haha I don't know if that makes sense i am rambling but
TL;DR: This is flippin' fantastic, definitely give it a try if you're debating it, and I am very excited to see further development and new chapters :) <3 <3
*side note: I don't know how the music is implemented and layered (I LOVE it, so beautiful and hauntingly perfect) but I did find the rain to be a bit loud and distracting once it started (using headphones) not a big deal, I may be more sensitive but just thought I would note it in case anyone is sound sensitive in the same weird way I am
*side side note: why am i already SO CAPTIVATED by this edgelord already ToT </3
Thank you so much! Abel has lived rent free in my head long before I put pen to paper, so I'm really glad the way that I imagined him translates well to this IF format :) I was hesitant about posting this story since it's definitely one of my more angsty/darker projects and I wasn't sure how it would be received, so I'm really glad you enjoyed Chapter One <3
Now that you've pointed that out, I definitely see what you mean about the rain being a bit loud/distracting. I will definitely go back and adjust the volume on that when I make the next update for Chapter Two.
I'm so glad you like him! Abel is such a fun character to write :) This comment made me smile so much, I really appreciate your kindness and encouragement! <3
I love it already
I appreciate the kind comment, thank you!
I love this alreadyyy, really excited to see how it unfolds.
Thank you, I'm glad you like the game so far! Hopefully I'll have the next update posted soon :)
Short but im interested to see where things go.
Thank you, I'm glad you're interested so far! Yeah the first chapter is short, I wanted to post it to gauge interest in the project. I was planning on finishing the story either way, I just wasn't sure whether other people would be interested in reading it.
I'm def interested.
very interesting start! hope to see more!
Thank you! I'm glad you're enjoying it so far, chapter two is in the works now!
A very spooky man. Interesting. Can’t wait to see more :)
Thank you, I'm glad you're enjoying Free Fall so far! I'm working on chapter two now, so hopefully the next update won't be too long
That's awesome! Patiently waiting :)
Man successfully charmed me without even trying lol
I'm looking forward to future content!
I'm glad you like Abel so far! Writing scenes with him is always a lot of fun. I never quite know what he's going to do until I have pen to paper hehe
I get this error when choosing he/him. Is the male mc route not available yet?
Hi Red,
Thanks so much for making me aware of this! I took a look at the code and see what I did wrong, I went in and corrected it so it should work fine now. Please let me know if you encounter any other issues while playing. I appreciate you attaching the screenshot for clarity!
