Team EdVic is excited to share our collaborative project - an EdVic fangame!
This game is playable in the browser and should be able to run on most devices. Please comment if you're having any issues playing it!
Our team decided to tackle this monster of a project head on, we're only a team of 3 but we are mighty!! We completed this game in 9 days.
The magical @twinkletalon created beautiful sprites, title card and CG - as well as support with narrative...
The wonderful @jwisdomhheartmmoon conceptualized the story outline, wrote dialogue options, beta read & beta tested...
And the awesome me (@flyhinata) wrote the script, did the programming in TyranoBuilder, and handled audio design & formatting!
We all came together to really pull together a story (since we weren't super satisfied with the essence's story) and decided to take it beyond!! This has been a passion project for all of us, and I'm so proud of what our team was able to accomplish. We hope you'll see the beauty of Edgar and Victor's relationship told through this Christmas vignette, and maybe you'll ship it just a little more after playing our game! I know that making this has just made me love them even more.
Special shout out to @takumitown, @kaimatic, and @gaykingderrick for being our wonderful beta testers! Your feedback was invaluable.
And big thanks to the Identity V Shipping Olympics for giving us great motivation to work on this project!
The theme was: Cliches, tropes, and collaboration.
What holiday has more cliches than Christmas? We played with several tropes, such as childhood crush to lovers, caught under the mistletoe, the tandem bicycle, "the stroke of midnight", and a few others we've snuck in!

Hi! I was wondering if I could post a play-through video of this game on the Chinese website Bilibili—it seems like a cool game, and the hope is that I would be reading out the English and translating it to Mandarin Chinese while playing through, so that IDV fans who do not read English (easily) can also enjoy the content. Please let me know and thank you!
Hey! Sure thing, I'd be happy for you to do that. It'd be so nice for the game to get to more people!
Would you be able to link me to the Bilibili page once it's done? Thanks so much for your interest in our lil edvic game!
I don't know why but the game doesn't want to load at all after I click "New Game"
I played the EdLuca game even after stopping shipping them and I want to play this one too even if I ship EdRick and Vicsopdrew, I'm a person open to other ships so I'm kinda sad it doesn't want to work for me
