Throwup_Club://Disc.0




Tsurine is a PsySpec wrapped up in the intensity of her job, and the delirium that comes with dissociative amnesia. One night, a mysterious woman offers to help recover her lost memories. All Tsurine must do in exchange is hunt down the missing fragments to an unusual key.




Throwup Club is an intricate choice-heavy psychological medicore thriller about an amnesiac facing both real and mental horrors within a world akin to an endless, liminal hospital. The game itself is what I like to call an RCN (Roleplay & Click Novel) - a fusion genre of Visual Novel, RPG, and Point-&-Click games that centers around distressing content and how people choose to cope with trauma. Uncover the secrets of this strange world, and the ones lying within your own forgotten memories. Will you accept your limitations, or will you dive deep into delusion for a chance at hope?

Can you face the world? Can you face yourself?

Are you sure?




The world of Throwup Club is heavily inspired by the works and the aesthetics of Yami Kawaii, liminality, Traumacore, Breakcore, Glitchcore, Hyperpop, and both Modern & Pastel Goth. It features a long and dark soundtrack done by lolratz combining elements of Breakcore, Hyperpop, Metal, and Witch House music genres.




Throwup Club's Sanitoria is full of disturbing secrets, and widespread mental challenges. Thankfully, you won't have to be alone- Tsurine will have the opportunity of engaging in one of three different romance routes. Each route and character will offer help in combat, a large influence on the story, and a slowburn yuri romance to tug at your heartstring implants! After all- dark places birth beautiful relationships. Just be wary of those with worse intentions. Where will you draw the lines between circumstance, intention, and abuse?




This is only the prologue for a long project, but it has a good amount of content to experience regardless - 2 to 7 hours of gameplay (time taken from players in the discord server), depending on how much secret content is discovered

The full story has already been planned out and written in detail, and will be released in segments. The prologue release could also be considered a demo. I will be regularly updating the game with new additional content in between major Disc releases.

I'm HARD AT WORK on the Disc 1 update, which should be coming within the next couple months. It's larger than D0 with an estimated playtime of around 3 to 10 hours, once again dictated by how much content you discover.





All donations will go towards affording proper art, sprites, and splashscreens!

Is this A.I. art?

All art currently within the game is either made by me, purchased stock I've heavily edited and stitched, or made by me using multiple pictures from A.I. stitched and edited together. I draw many elements of my art, like arms and eyes, and frames for animations, but not whole pieces. I use A.I. because I'm both terminally ill, and home-bound. I don't have the money or ability to get money to fund such a large final passion project at the moment, or do all of the art on my own. HOWEVER. All donations that the game gets will go towards affording proper art for the game, and potentially life-saving surgeries. I don't plan on making any money off donations until the game's art has been completely covered, and I will also be digging into my pocket as much as I can to make it work. I have always supported and commissioned artists throughout my life, and that will never change. Supporting this game is supporting artists I'll hire once I have the funds. I plan to get many sprites for many characters, as well as many splash screens to bring colorful scenes to life. No machine can replace the passion I want this game to be illustrated with. If you are an artist with a fitting style, dedication, and an interest in properly illustrating the world of Throwup Club and its characters- please contact me! (@throwpup on Discord)

I made an account just to comment, but I really love this game! I don't currently have the means to do so, but hopefully in the next few months I can donate to help out with the development of this. I'm really into menhera/yami kawaii aesthetics and hyperpop and breakcore music, this is probably one of the best games that encompasses all of those things and I just ahhh I love it so much, please keep up the amazing work :D

let's goo! that's so awesome to hear as the tcup composer :3 youuuu should totally join the discord server wink wink, we'd be happy to have u >:3

NEW UPDATE YAY :)

(1 edit) (+5)

This was AMAZING !!! I'm not the kind to do a second replay right after finishing a game/novel but I sure will even before Disc1 because I missed a lot of achievements and (seeing some pictures) even some mechanics haha

EDIT: Really I'm baffled that no one ever let's-played it on youtube ; It's the most polished Dark-Menhera/Breakcore game, let alone visual novel in existence ! And I'm glad something like this exists !!

Can't wait for Disk1 :D

(+3)

I'm super glad you enjoyed it!! :D I'm hoping maybe I'll get a let's play once I release disc 1 :> I hope you have fun finding all the secrets! There's a bunch of 'em

(+2)

Desperate thirsty for Chinese version!!!

Hopefully someday!

I’m ilo Niki and this is my favorite game on Itch.io

(+1)

best comment lmao

(+3)

There is a lot in this game holy, also it the style is really really good I really like the music and the demo gave me a little bit of an idea about the characters, I can see the passion in this project I would definitely pay in the future for the release.

Thanks for playing!! It won't be too long until the next major update :>

(+3)

I literally made an Itch.io account simply to tell you although I personally couldn't really enjoy this, I know this game is very high quality! I can't wait for further updates, and maybe to see someone like ManlyBadassHero play it in place (it's too overwhelming for me.)

(+3)

Thank you, I really appreciate it!! And I completely understand; it's a very demanding game for people who want to bite off a lot, and maybe go a little cooky in the process. Hell, though, if Manly played it I'd be super overjoyed. Feel like I might actually have a shot? I guess we'll see :3

(+1)

I personally think you have a shot! I bet you could get the game covered, especially if you emailed his business email!

(+3)

YESSS we need him to play it gather the troops lets STORM THE MANLYBADASSHERO GATE
on a serious note though, i'd love to see him play this game, i used to watch his stuff allll the time!

(+3)

i would volunteer to do art, but i am working on a series of 4 games myself ehehe

(+1)
wow,i very like this game,i fell deeply in love with this game after only playing for a few minutes!By the way, does this game have sinicization or can it be adjusted?anyway,i like this game
(+1)

Heya, I'm glad you're really liking it! By sinicinize, do you mean translate it to Chinese? I'm a solo dev, and as much as I'd love to have a translated version of the game available, I'm afraid that won't be possible unless I can get a publisher, or the game is successful enough for me to afford translation. If either of those things happens, though, I'll absolutely be getting it translated for Chinese audiences :3

(+1)

Thank you for your reply. Translating this game is difficult, and I sincerely hope that this game has various languages in different countries, and I also want it to become popular. In short, I am looking forward to the content that I have not yet played in this game, as well as your other games in the future!

(๑ơ ₃ ơ)

I hope you enjoy the rest of the content! :D And I'll make sure to prioritize translations if the games gets a bit more popular. thank you for the kind comments c:

(+3)

Just finished a second replay of the demo to check all the stuff I missed and I'm not sure I even got all of it. This project fucking rocks. The music, style, and character writing are phenomenal from what I've seen so far. I absolutely cannot wait to see this project updated. Very much looking forward to its release! 

(+1)

Thank you sm!!I'm really glad you're enjoying it so far :D There's many cool things and new secrets to come ^^

(+7)

even in the little prologue theres an overwhelming about of little things to read and do. i got so quickly immersed and lost in this medical scifi world, greatly relating to our poor protagonist. i need to learn more about these girls. i want to see them struggle and thrive

the visual aesthetic and the audio work is just incredible. i love me some break beats and the simple effect of animated backgrounds is just perfect

i look forward to the future

(1 edit) (+2)

thank you for playing!! I worked rly hard on depth, so reading this really makes it all feel worth the effort! there's a lot of tsurine exploration to come, so im pumped to read your future reactions :3

(+4)

I don't think I have ever been as entranced by a NV or point and click as I have by this game. I'm glad that I got the chance to play it and I cannot wait to see what all is in store. It is severely underrated and I think its replayability so far is very high. I am kept on my toes and the themes are relatable in a way that isnt fearful because its impossible, but anxiety inducing in that these feelings and literal situations can be possible here in the real world or have been experienced by me or people I know. I definitely reccomend this game and this developer for anyone who likes small obscure but deeply moving games. 

(+2)

Thank you so much for the sweet comment!! Even under all the fantasy, our emotions and anxieties are a shared experience- and I really hope to do them justice!

(+3)

You do a great job and from your messages both in the game itself and your dev profile you definitely have the character and experience to bring these emotions justice and bring them the light they deserve to have shed on them. Keep on fighting <3

(+2)

Thank you sm!! I'll continue to do my absolute best.

(+3)

Love the vibe of the game. It's playing more with my feelings more than i am playing it eheh. Gonna be replaying it to figure out more of it's secrets. Loving the experience. I can't wait for more!

(+2)

I'm so glad you're enjoying it!! Have fun secret-hunting!! :3

(+3)

spectacular game, this is totally going to be huge. filled with so much detail and passion, very excited and invested to see what comes of this
world.
the amount of secrets, information, variables and lore is massive, i love how much the game listens to me and remembers what i pick. incredibly immersive and can already tug at my emotions.
if you enjoy visual novels, exploration and getting dumped into a brand new weird and deep world, please do yourself a favor and check it out now, because this game will be massive in the future :3

(good job honey :3)
