Episode 3: Painful Memories – The spring carnival provided a glimmer of light, and possibly hope, on the fractured relationship with your sister.

Thank you to all TaH supporters, both long-term and new! You’re the reason why this game continues and why I strive for ways to improve it. Reaching a larger audience helps make this easier on me, so please don’t be shy spreading what you like about TaH and making it more visible in the gaming community. It always brings me a smile when I see this game discussed and recommended.
Enjoy
Episode 2 v0.26
Here’s the EP2[v0.26] release, which includes all of Ep1 and the first half of Ep2 in one zip. The entire Ep2 will be approximately 50% larger than Ep1.
The first episode was mostly for creating the groundwork that the rest of the series will build on. How the story, character development, and relationship building take place in Ep2 will be much closer to what you can expect in future releases, and has a different feel than the unlucky chain of events that took place to start out the series.
Episode 1 v1.0
This update finalizes the episode with 30k words, 900 images, game audio, some new content, and updated images & dialogue. For those that have played a previous version (the last one being v0.36), you will notice a lot of improvements to where it may almost feel like a new game.
So what’s next?
Work on Episode 2 is already underway and I’m targeting a Spring 2023 release.
v0.20a
Initial Release
Contains roughly the first half of Episode 1 for free, the same content as the web browser version.
Give it a try before any commitment!
