Sailing the DivorSeas
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Recently divorced, you’ve lost yourself in a hurricane of heartache. After speaking with your therapist, it's about time for you to go after a fresh start. This leads to seeing new and old faces, all familiar heartbreak. Will your ship lose its way or will you steady the course?
This game is a demo released for Otome Jam 2022! Further game updates will be done in "chapters", and release dates for those chapters will be decided at later dates. Sailing the Divorseas follows the player a few months after their divorce got finalized. After suggestions from their therapist, they go to group therapy made specifically for divorcees. Surrounded by others who have gone through heartbreak, whether recent or years old, maybe all together the hearts can be healed.

And two more to come in later chapters!

I hope u guys still working on this game
Dom fan here.
A demo that is adorably soft and hints at deeper topics at the same time! Excited to see what else is in store.
First 5 minutes of the game and already a huge plot twist I was not expecting. Im very excited for the full game.
I really liked this demo! The MC felt real and relatable, and my curiosity has been piqued for every character I've come across. I'll even forgive Marc for making me want to go out for ice cream in this heat, LMAO. Great work, I'm looking forward to more! :>
If you want cozy, love fill vibes but with possible heavy vibes. This is it, as a Divorcee and a parent. This is actually very relatable to see being made. Keep going! I swear I didn't know Dom had facial pericing at all at first and now I do. Anyway, the story is very attention grabbing and it has me in a chokehold!
This is going to be my new hyperfixation, I can feel it
More MORE!!! But seriously this is wonderful, I'm really excited to see what will come. A divorced dad is exactly the type of LI I've been wishing for. It'd be really awesome if you could add an option to darken the text or textbox, the white on light blue was really difficult for my eyes to make out.
Thanks for playing and for letting us know!! We can definitely take a look into making a "dark mode" version of the GUI so folks have the option to switch the colours if they'd like to!
WOOOOOH!!!! CANT WAIT TO PLAY...
