Routes into the Tomorrow
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android
An ordinary morning, an ordinary guy and an ordinary birthday. Nothing seems to change this routine. However, even unlikely events happen that adds something unusual to the life of a person, a city, or the whole world. But if given a second chance, tragedy may turn into a life-changing opportunity. Ready to take the first step?
If you can't buy the game on this site, write me on Discord. We can find a better payment method, and then I'll try to give you the game key.
Note: “The big 1-9” files are an old game version that is no longer updated. It has a lot of text and events, but almost no images. “Routes into the Tomorrow” is the game's main version and does not require the old game version to work.

Is this Game still being developed?
Or rather are you not well irl and just postponing the game updates?
If yes to the second i hope you will get better soon and take your time with this this game is awesome.
I plan to return to game development in a month when I write a graduate thesis for my university, as I wrote on my discord server.
I see. alright .
Then i wish you great Sucess.
其他支付方式?
Well, I’ve returned to developing this game and have been working on it lately. I’ve changed my view of the game a little, so I’ll have to rework some elements. Now I am at the stage of writing the script and various text. If you know English well, you can help me edit some sentences as a beta reader. Write here or my Discord (voytsik).
Id love to help if you need anymore people as beta readers
I need them (that person above did nothing for now). Write here your discord nickname, or write directly to me.
It's midnitefakie
If your still focusing on this game, when should we be expecting 0.02.? (For routes into the tomorrow)
Yes, I plan to work on this game, but the last weeks have been busier than I expected. Can’t promise how soon when new version of the game will be ready.
Tomorrow the into routes
Is there any way to play version 0.1 with the pictures on Android? There is only an option to open the html by itself
Download .apk file, it’s for Android. It installs the game like a common app.
how about the 0.1 though, the version 0.01 works perfectly fine, but functions in it like the bed doesn’t work
If you talk about “routes” version, then yes, bed there doesn’t work yet. It’s a thing to change in the next updates.
can't wait for the update, I love the game it is based around, so having images for it will be amazing!
When do you think the next update will be?
I’ve been a little busy the past few weeks and haven’t been able to work on the game. I’ll be back after June 6th or sooner. So the next game update will be sometime in June. In this update, there will be an introduction to the protagonist’s family via an event for each character (one event is completely ready, and the text part of another without images).
Could you make the format for Android app that's easier to download
I tried to do it. Download the apk file and check if it works fine. I didn’t have any startup errors, but these files haven’t been fully tested.
For some reason when i open the game in browser none of the photos are loaded (i play on Android)
Did you try to extract game files from its archive and launch the game again?
I can't download it on Android
still has no content of vore or I'm doing something wrong
Yes, nothing for now, just introduction and system mechanics. Wait for the next update. It’s just a prototype to demonstrate the graphic interface and other things (and, maybe, hear some thoughts about it).
And some general information about future plans and the nature of the game. For now, most of the action will take place in the player’s home. You can’t go to other locations (I will add some other locations, but that will come later). The reason for this I can’t say, so as not to give spoilers (in the next version of the game you will understand this point). Can only say that the player will have to face Luminar again. Therefore, I’ll focus on different interactions with the protagonist’s family. The photos that you could see in different locations are hints for future events, when the player will get to know the characters and increase their level of sympathy (I have the Attitude attribute for this). Such an increase will open up new interaction opportunities and allow you to get to know the characters better.
After reaching a certain level of sympathy, the player will be able to go on the route of one of the characters (I added “route” to the game title for this reason). But I will have a slightly different structure of such routes. Choosing one route does not block access to all others, and when the player completes one route, they can go back and complete other routes without losing most of their progress (you do not have to replay this game from the beginning). Each of the characters will have several possible routes. I will try to make them interesting to pass. An analogue of such routes is the Endings in the previous version 1-9.
And one more thing. Unlike many other games, there is a father of the protagonist here. There is a certain amount of bisexual content with this character in the interactive story that became the basis for this game. I can’t say that I particularly like it, but there might be something in the game. However, I’m going to make this content optional, and at some point the main character may even get the opportunity to remove (temporarily or for longer) this character from the game if you want to end a harem route or Martha’s route. I can even add the ability to change the gender of this character at some later stages of the game.
Right now, I still don’t have a fully completed story with all the details, so I’m happy to hear your suggestions and ideas if they help me improve the game. You can write it in the comments or in my Discord.
Is the Vore avoidable?
Oh, rather important question (I hope that other people will see my answer as well). At this point, I don’t see a way to make it avoidable. I have certain plans for how the player will interact with other characters, and in these plans, vore plays a rather big role. I had thoughts of making some way to avoid such events, but then most of the story would be lost. So, if this genre is not for you, then do not play this game. Among my plans is to make another normal game without it, but it won’t be soon.
I can’t please all users, I’m the only one working on this game. It took me two months to develop each file available for download, and there was a month break between them. I prefer the option of making a good game for a specific audience than a mediocre game for a large audience.
If you open the version of “The big 1-9” you will get an idea of what the game will be about. If you completely remove vore from it, then most of the story will be lost. I have no idea how to make up for this lost part, so I gave up on the idea of making vore avoidable. However, this does not mean that you should watch each of the vore events. Some of them can be avoided.
Thank you for your quick reply. I'm personally not into vore, so I will be avoiding this game, but I completely understand where you're coming from in terms of watering down the premise of the game as a whole. It's better to focus on a dedicated audience, even if it is niche, than it is to try to make it accessible to everyone.
Hope you're find great success with your current and future projects. (:
I’m writing about the next events, and have a feeling it’s possible to do this. I can’t say yet how it will turn out, but I may try to make this genre optional. The first events of this kind are still far away, but it seems to me that even without vore, the story will be able to offer players a lot of content.
Cannot be opened on android
Did you extract the game from its archive? Then open the file index.html with some internet browser, it should work. Some common browser like Chrome or Opera (I don’t know about others).
Mines working but not displaying the pngs
The same, as I think, problem in others users.
I'm trying to do what I think he said but it's not working so far
It's not working I'll just wait until I get a PC that can actually run it looking forward to play this game (also some of the pictures are blank/say no image available is that intended if not I think that might be a part of the problem)
r u gonna make a Mac version?
I’ve never had a Mac, so I don’t know how everything works there. This game is made with HTML and JavaScript. Can a Mac run such a game? Don’t know. If not, I won’t mind if someone tells me how to make a version for this system.
