Unwritten Path

“The fall doesn’t start with a scream. It starts with silence.”

You were walking. Another campus day. Another weight pressing down on your chest.
But then... something shifted.

The world trembles. A strange melody lingers in the air. The ground vanishes beneath your feet.
You're not transported. You're devoured.

Into the Abyss is a short psychological-fantasy visual novel where reality fractures without warning, and the boundary between mind and myth dissolves. You don’t just fall into another world—you fall into your own subconscious: fear, regret, and fractured memory.

Through vivid narration, internal monologue, and surreal transitions, you’ll experience the moment everything familiar collapses.
There are no choices to make yet—only to feel, observe, and descend.

🌀 Features:

• A highly stylized psychological descent
• Immersive sound design and animated overlays
• Original writing focused on inner thought and emotional unraveling
• Acts as a prologue or standalone experience

This is not an escape. It’s an unraveling.

🌱 About Me

Hi, I’m Pete—a physics graduate student who spends too much time thinking about what makes people fall apart… and what helps them hold on.

This is my first visual novel. I didn’t make it to impress anyone. I made it because there are moments—quiet, unraveling moments—when words alone aren’t enough. You need atmosphere. You need silence. You need to fall through something.

I’ve always been drawn to stories that blur the line between the real and the surreal, between thought and emotion. This small project came from that space—somewhere between exhaustion and imagination, between anxiety and hope.

I hope something in it resonates with you, even for just a moment.
