You play as Serith, a proud dark elf sent to the human surface on a quiet political mission: to push men and dwarves toward conflict for the benefit of her house.
Ash and Velvet is a dark fantasy adult visual novel about pride, power, erotic leverage, and the slow cost of making yourself useful to the wrong people.
If you've just found this page, this is the post to read first. I make the game on my own, chapter by chapter, and this is where you can follow it while it's being made.
What's out
The prologue and Chapters 1 to 4, plus Fair Copy, a short interlude told by Mara (about 45 minutes). Fully voiced, with living sprites that blink, breathe, and speak. Animated scenes with sound, original backgrounds, music, and sound design. For Windows, Linux, Mac and Android.
Chapter 5 is in the works, and there's a progress post every Monday.

What to expect
- Slow-burn corruption, played for keeps. Nothing is taken from Serith by force. Everything is bargained for, and the bargains keep getting worse.
- Explicit and uncut: animated sex scenes with sound, and plenty of them once the court starts naming its prices. It's never just sex. It's where the bargains get paid, and she keeps her head up while she pays.
- A proud, dangerous protagonist who stays in control of herself even when she is not in control of the room.
- Choices that matter twice: how she carries herself changes how the court reads her, and whom she leans on changes what she pays.
- The Record: the game keeps her choices in her own words, next to what actually happened.
Subscribing

You also get the Monday progress posts with WIP renders and voiced snippets, a say in the polls along the way, and the private Discord channel with the more explicit cuts.
