Puzzle Spy International is a hybrid VN/puzzle game: It's a 1960s spy adventure where you travel the world, chat/flirt with contacts and solve substantial thinky puzzles.

Demo on steam - s.team/a/3406690 - and also on Itch.
Agent Epsilon - Dark skin and hair, teal and charcoal mod mini-dress, warm smile - chats with Inspector Ewan Danger - blond, chiseled features, natty vest and tie and a big tan trenchcoat. They're standing in front of the old New Scotland Yard, with Big Ben and the Houses of Parliament in the background. The scene is all blue and the art style is mid-century modern. The player has two choices on-screen for how Agent Epsilon can interact with Ewan: "Give a Friendly Greeting" or "Chat Him Up!" (British Slang for "flirt with him.") Agent Epsilon is confronted by Stefania Plinth, who is agrily gesturing and saying "Those diavoli! They broke in here and stole the Eswatini Giant!" Both women are in 60s outfits, Epsilon in a teal mod short-sleeved dress and Stefania in a blue and cream dress with a wide collar and double-breaster buttons up the front. She's got cats-eye glasses and her hair is in a tight bun. Both are standing in the geology museum, with display cases of rocks, framed phots of how plate tectonics work, and a T-rex skeleton in the back. The scene is purple and gold and the whole thing is drawn in a mid-century modern art style. A scene at a cafe with a bunch of people, ach one with a text entry box next to them. You have to figure out who each person is. There are a number of clues (some in fake Latin to avoid spoilers) on the side to help you deduce the identities. (Example: The first one says "Embarak is reading.") A puzzle screen with lots of cards with colorful illustrations on them, and a bunch more with just text on them. Agent Epsilon is in the corner of the screen pointing at two UI buttons labeled "Hints" and "Check answers." She is saying "Here’s the hint button in the corner! Use it if you need a little help solving a puzzle. We don’t track hint usage and there’s no 'score' so you’re free to use it whenever you need some help."

Over blood splatter, text reads: "Like, who needs a soul anyway?" Angel Idiot says, "What part of 'bound to you for all eternity 'til desires are granted' did you not understand, my girl?" Him and Demon Idiot are fondling the frustrated girl in the middle. Gemma says, "If she's not scamming people, she's in her own little world." Text reads: "She rolls her eyes at what she might call 'greed and desperation' whereas I'll call it 'pride and dedication." Two girls who currently don't like each other are standing.

I made the skeleton of Beaconing: A Lost Cause for the Toxic Yuri VN Jam and have been working on finishing it for the last few months!! SOON!!!!

Sketchy sprite of Marlow standing in her office, overlaid with the text: I’ve made the mistake of thinking I might actually make it home this evening. It’s late afternoon—the sun’s starting to dip, long shadows snake across my desk. I’m no stranger to working into the thin hours, but with no urgently pressing cases for Marlow & Associates, I’m thinking I might just close up shop soon. That’s when she walks in. Just the face I’m sick of seeing. My lack of a secretary betrays me, as with but a single knock she sees it fit to let herself right in. Should I be grateful for the knock? Photo of an antique cadillac headlamp, overlaid with the text: “It’s a special lens, cut in such a way...” I trail off, thinking of how to put it. “Look, on you car’s headlamps. The lens has this series of parallel cuts, designed to concentrate and project a beam of light.” “So it’s a big goddamn headlamp.” She struggles to be impressed. “What, you saying headlamps are dangerous?” Photo of an antique crystal radio, overlaid with the text: “Crystal radio.” I watch the faint glimmer pulse as I carry it with me, circling the edges of the room. “Lucky find. This one has an exposed diode, too.” “And how does this help us?” Her chin is cocked out arrogantly, but her voice betrays a hesitant curiosity... in a I-wouldn’t-admit-my-lack-of-knowledge kind of way. Funny thing, that, considering I’ve definitely explained this to her before. Photo of a dark spiral staircase, overlaid with the text: Somewhere high above us, there should be a spinning beacon, and yet... The darkness seems to reach upwards endlessly. Like heaven is a bottomless pit.

"A painting hangs above the hearth, flaking and aged, its ornate frame tarnished with time." "You are a lost soul, drifted away from the Sunless Sea." Screenshot of a knight in front of a stone wall. "An intimidating face suits me." "I'd like to think I had a friendly face." "Would it be vain to wish that I was handsome?" "What I looked like doesn't matter. I'm dead."
