Is Winter Real?
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux
Hello, friend!
"Is Winter Real?" is a short horror game made in five days for Winter Visual Novel Jam 2022.
You find a weird machine with a mysterious AI, apparently designed to generate images based on the prompt you enter.
Images can do no harm, right?
"Is Winter Real?" is a game about AI generated images, but we used no AI generated art. Everything is hand drawn, so you don't have to worry about ethical issues! :)
It's a first project made by Coconut Dog Team - a group of nine friends from Poland, who share a passion for games and craft beer. We're mostly students and people working in fields that have nothing to do with gamedev - we have no experience, no free time and a lot of ideas.

Oh I LOVE the premise of this, it's so creative and eerie. Really captured that uncanny valley creepy aspect of talking to AI sometimes. I'm super curious as to what the binary and russian(?) said but alas I am too lazy try to decode it ahaha. But yeah, it's a really interesting premise and executes the horror really well. The endings, aside from the visitor, don't really make sense to me? Unless the player is also inside some form of simulation that means the world outside can just change like that. But the visitor ending certainly gives you the chills for sure!
(also love to see fellow poles out here, and creating such an interesting and well-drawn vn? mannn, it's nice)

A cool experience. I love the feel, and the final scene's sound and visual design were fantastic!
Thank you for your kind words, it means a lot to us 😊♥️
A very fascinating scenario with Is Winter Real? with the AI either helping you or acting on its own. Now I'm afraid of opening my curtains every morning! xD
Thank you so much for playing! And for your feedback ☺️ we really appreciate it 🥺♥️
The corpses in the river should've had more fingers.
They used to. Aida didn't like it 🌚
Loved it! Novel and timely idea. Really appreciate the original art.
Thank you 😊 ❤️
Very interesting game for sure. I really like the idea of AI generated images. (Which makes this more of an irony.) Keep it up.
