The Source - about the game
Journey through time in this sci-fi visual novel alongside heroes Joe and Eva. They pursue entry into Source City, a place free of suffering, by completing a trial that takes them to various historical spots on an alternate Earth. The narrative unfolds across unique locations, each featuring distinct characters and tales filled with action, love, tragedy, and mystery. This pure visual novel offers no choices or minigames, letting you absorb the story effortlessly-even playable with no hands. Full English voice acting and original character art enhance the experience, alongside Steam achievements. It suits fans of story-driven indie visual novels who enjoy deep revelations about reality.

The Source Is A Sci-fi Visual Novel.

The story begins as a "simple" journey through time following our two heroes Joe and Eva. They want to enter Source City where the life is good and there is no more suffering. As part of their trial to be allowed the entry to Source City, our heroes will visit multiple destinations in the history of their alternate Earth. However, as the story progresses you will learn that there is much more to the story than just time travel.

Visit multiple locations each with their own unique characters and stories. Experience action, love, tragedy, mystery, and much more. Find out the mysteries of this alternate Earth and discover what reality is.

Keep in mind that this visual novel is just a visual novel. There are no choices to make or minigames to play.

I think the story is pretty cool but only if you like this type of game/novel. But of course I think that. I made it.
