Welcome to Freyborough!

There’s no better feeling than coming home after graduating, and kicking it back for the summer with your best friend. Freyborough is as welcoming and nostalgic as ever, with a friendly community where humans and the supernatural live in harmony. It’s perfect! 

Well, that is until you get attacked by a vampire. 

While Freyborough is supposed to be the safest place around, nothing can get in the way of a feral vampire. Unfortunately, instead of enjoying your summer like you’d hoped, you have a month until an affliction takes your body and you succumb to vampirism. But, luckily for you there are a few kind people who want to help… 

A Moonlit Summer demo is just the beginning of a fantasy dating sim set in the modern world: 

• There are four possible love interests for you to invest in! Two men and two women. 

• Each love interest is a different species: human, werewolf, vampire and nymph. 

• Each route is accessible regardless of your gender. 

• You can choose your name and customise your personal pronouns! 

• This game is asexual friendly. You can initiate an asexual romance or just stay friends — it’s your call. 

• A unique world you can learn about and explore as the story goes on: try every route to learn as much as you can!

For this demo, we have included the prologue and first act where you will meet and interact with all possible love interests. Ready to meet them? 

Sophia Amery 

Who doesn’t love brains and brawn? Sophia is a junior doctor at the local hospital who seems to have taken a liking to your biology. She’s an incredibly smart individual, but just a little socially awkward… However, there’s a lot more to discover than just her fascination with vampirism: after all, spending the summer in a hospital can’t be that bad! 

Aurora Chanalet 

Pink, pink and more pink! Aurora is quite the opposite of a stereotypical vampire who enjoys brooding and hiding under umbrellas. She loves to be outside, under the sun and loves to bake. Although a little overbearing and excitable at times, there’s plenty to love about Aurora — spending time in the sun with her might be just what you need.

Lars Wulfric

Scruffy, grumpy and handsome — what more could you want? Lars is a werewolf who takes his heritage seriously, enjoying the simpler things in life like nature and literature. Even though his hatred towards vampires is pretty solid, maybe you can change his mind. Underneath that grouchy exterior is a man who’s a soft pup at heart.

Vitus Linett 

A shy, quiet nymph with a lot of weight bearing on his shoulders. Vitus isn’t here to stay for very long, so you might never get the chance to meet a nymph again. He’s breaking the status quo of nymph-kind and exploring the noisy world beyond the forest, and you could be the first to show him the best of humanity. 

Make sure to follow this page for updates and for announcements on the full release of the game. What there is to expect from the full version: 

• Four fully playable routes.

• Drawn backgrounds and sprites. 

• A unique soundtrack. 

Thank you for playing, and please be sure to leave a rating and review! We also now have a Tumblr page where we'll post updates concerning our demo and other developments.

So far it seems very interesting and charming! Was a bit disappointed with the lack of sprites or changing facial expressions but I understand it's a demo, and I kept reading anyway and it was very intriguing! I'm looking forward to learning more about the characters and the lore!

Hiya, Florisam! Thanks so much for checking out the game and supporting it. We're currently ironing out the demo to make sure everyone can have a great experience and see the cast of characters. We really appreciate your honesty, and hope to see you back for an improved demo.

Had to play this as soon as I saw asexual romance mentioned in the description. So excited for this in the full game and to see all the sprites of the characters. Beatrice's art is so cute so I'm sure the rest will be great. Ngl I didn't read who the love interests were before playing so I was kinda hoping the vampire who turned you would be one aha the drama of it all. Most excited to learn more about Vitus! I'll eagerly be looking forward to the full game :)

Hiya! We're so glad you enjoyed the demo so far, it's been great so far developing it with the team. I hope you enjoy Vitus' story as it develops. If you'd like to keep up with us on another platform, we actually just started up a Tumblr page to update once our demo is ironed out. Thanks for commenting <3
