Augustine and Winnie have always been together their whole childhood. Ever since elementary school up until now, when they have graduated high school. They were inseparable.

But now that Winnie got accepted to his university, he is soon leaving town. The two decide to spend their last day together before his move.

Not long after they hopped into Winnie's car, they suddenly find themselves trapped in a freezing blizzard.

... It's currently July.

Cold Front is a short 2.5D RPG Maker horror/narrative-driven game with visual novel/adventure elements following the story of two childhood friends, Augustine and Winnie, suddenly being trapped in a freezing blizzard even though it's the summer. The two have to work together to escape the chilling dangers they are suddenly forced into.

This was a game made for a Korean RPG Maker game jam/contest where you were challenged to make a full game in under a month.

This is the second game I have ever developed and in just 25 days at that so the mechanics, puzzles and storytelling might feel a little short/less-dynamic, but I am looking to improve in the future!

All tips and feedback are greatly appreciated, 

Thank you for visiting and hope you enjoy the game!

the game is so precious!! the artstyle is very cute and unique (just like in other games), and the symbolism is so great. i love the design and story so much. (i cried so much during the gameplay someone help me) the game is really fun to play and i recommend it to anyone who hasnt tried it yet ! 

I thought the game was brilliant and I love the characters and the story telling, it goes so well with the theme. This Is a great game.

My plans for today did not involve ugly sobbing at a random video game (I don't even usually cry at all) but here I am and holy shit I haven't cried this much in almost a year. 100/10 game, I loved this so much

(+1)

That was sweet (the good ending I mean...), I appreciate the messaging

Í´m gonna cry with the bad ending 😭😭

(+1)

Это первый раз когда я пишу какой-то отзыв и я хочу сказать ЭТО ВЕЛИКОЛЕПНО. Я просто плакала на хорошей концовке прекрасная музыка и рисовка. Вы бы видели бы мое лицо когда я увидела их мертвых маленьких версии. И персонажи просто прекрасный я молюсь на них. Короче всем советую играть очень прикольная и короткая новелла и кстати я застряла на уровне где нужно бежать и через несколько попыток я поняла что нужно нажать shift...

im gonna cry I cant outrun the thing sigh...

press shift to run

Where does the game take place ?

canada, as confirmed in the official STUDIO INVESTIGRAVE discord i think

Thanks ! I thought so ! 

the artwork at the end of the description looks just like "healing life through camping in another world" so i thoght ts was the same artist

Scared the heck out of me, but i loved every second of it. The story is beautifully explained, and its an amazing experience. As a person who actually deeply relates to Auggie this game had a pretty big impact on me. My thanks to the devs!

I'll keep thinking about this story for quite a bit.

in 25 mins is crazyyy, hatss offf damn

I genuinely think this is my fav game I love it so much

(+2)

Just played this game, and I wanna be honest...

This is such an amazing game!! The symbolism is spot on, the storyline is incredible, the art is soo cutie, and I honestly thought the "push" option (if ykyk) was the best ending and the "don't" option will end with dying, but Im surprised it's actually the most refreshing and comfortable ending, even if it's kinda bittersweet :]

Overall it's short, but I loved it!! (also I really wished they kissed at the end smh 😔)

(+1)

Dios, en verdad ame la historia final me hizo llorar jaja pero en verdad amo tus juegos son lo mejor <3

(1 edit)

i love this so much 

I love the art style and think the story is fine. But it was still fun.

(+3)

low-key reminded me of these twos friendship dynamic 😂

(+1)

This was a crazy experience. I loved all of it.

During the line "That's not all there is to why I screamed!" the game froze, ironically. I had to close out and reopen, and then it worked.

I love Augustine 2.

HOLY SHIT I WAS NOT EXPECTING THERE TO BE A MONSTER.

That body-suit graphic is DISGUSTING. And the last-second eyes staring right at you... Jesus Christ. Really great job.

Fantastic music!! I loved all the tracks that were chosen! Perfect sound effects, too.

For your SECOND GAME EVER it has such strong style, character, humor, and scares that this could have been your twentieth and I would've had no idea! 

the game also kept freezing for me it happened at least twice before I just re downloaded it

I love this sm, i cried at the end huhu

(+1)

dear author, if you read this pleaseeeee make it (SPOILERS)


man i really wish theres a third ending


for the bad ending and the third ending:

1. auggie would have to push winnie down the stairs, butttttt instead of going straight to the cut scene in the car accident,

2. winnie would call out to auggie,

3. then auggie has a choice to leave or listens:
   a. if he leaves he wakes up to the car accident, going to the bad ending where winnie dies and hes happy
   b. if he chooses to listen then the 3rd ending will happen


whats the third ending?

1. wiinie and auggie gets to have a conversation

2. auggie says sorry and shit and tries to save winnie, but hes seriously injured or something

3. they say goodbye (or not, it depends on you)

4. auggie wakes up, but winnie is dead, hes actually depressed instead of happy, and regrets everything

10/10 game I cried
