About
Student Transfer is a visual novel telling the
story of John Davis, a rather normal boy whose
regular life in San Fransokyo is shaken up when he gets
involved with supernatural forces by accident.
The game presents a dichotomy of supernatural themes as John is
introduced either to a technological marvel which can affect bodies and minds or an old tome exposing him to
the world of magic.
A sprawling adventure unfolds as he explores his newfound powers,
with the player being able to
shape his way through the story, leading to a whole
bunch of different endings. Using these catalysts,
Student Transfer seeks to explore the themes of
swapping bodies or minds,
possessing other people and
gender bending them (or yourself).
The story is told through the perspective of the main character
John, using a first person narrative while using a traditional text
and sprite-based visual novel model.
Student Transfer was created using the
Ren'Py visual novel
engine and contains adult material. It is
open source
and available for free.
