The Wrong Side
[DISC 0 REMAKE]



- BEFORE YOU SPEND ANY $$$$ - 

THE FIRST CHAPTER OF THE GAME OUT NOW IS CURRENTLY FREE - USE THE DEMO BUTTON AT THE BOTTOM TO PLAY IT! Buying the game will give you access to all 4 chapters ( called 'Discs' ) of this game in the future as they are released, but does not give you anything beyond what's in the demo currently (the demo is Disc 0). Only purchase the game at this time if you would like to support me ahead of time!

This is the first of 4 games in a quadrilogy ( Throwup Club ) for mature audiences 18+ . While this game ( The Wrong Side ) does not contain any sexual or explicit content beyond heavy gore in its final two Discs, the remaining games will. Please plan accordingly.


ALSO ON STEAM NOW YAY :D


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, and both Modern & Pastel Goth. It features a long, diverse, and dark soundtrack done by lolratz combining elements of Breakcore, Hyperpop, 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 five different major 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?


Throwup Club is tetralogy opera, composed of 4 games, each with 4 "Discs" each. I will release the game one Disc at a time with major updates, each in a completed state. The demo is the entirety of Disc 0. Owning this game prior to the final Disc update means being able to play the Discs as they are completed.

The Games are:
"The Wrong Side" | "Friends Like These" | "A Mirror's Lie" | "The Dark Tower"

This is the page for the first game - "The Wrong Side"

On a more personal note- I'm in a constant fight against a deadly health condition, so any purchases of this game go a long way towards helping me. I rely on a shoddy implant to live that gives me sepsis about once a month (a deadly blood infection). and it's always a huge struggle. I'm currently trying to find alternatives, but I've been dry out of options for a while now. I will continue to work on this game as long as I am able, but I rely on your support to afford proper art for this project, as I'm unable to work a normal job (I cannot leave my home). This game serves as an art piece homage to the medical abuse I've endured over the years, and I hope it helps others with severe conditions feel less alone. To anyone who has purchased Throwup Club, or will- thank you! (from the bottom of my dysfunctional heart)

HiiiiIII. I played the new update on my channel. I absolutely love the new art and the overall look of this game. I played an older version of this game I while back so it's pretty cool seeing how much it's improved since then. I can't wait to see the rest of game.  

(+1)

:D thank uuuu

(+3)

does this actually features puke? or is it just the name of the game / an expression? Asking because as an Emetophobe, I want to be prepared lol

(+3)

yes, lots! there's only one very minor instance of puke in this current release (a little itty bitty one that's noised over) but as the game continues it will feature more and more vomit, including some really explicit and graphic scenes.

(+1)

thank you! appreciate the response

(+8)

GAME OUT!!!!

(+5)

I love this game so much it takes up real estate in my brain like I pass by this place that has the word hydroponics on it and my head is like "!!". I fr wish the best for this game and all the lovely ppl involved in its creation, throwup club unironically is such a blessing and that tw list got me like ?! HELLOOO like CHILDBIRTH??? regardless congrats on the notable impact on my brain and if anyone can tell me what the flip is a puffado (i'm not getting that name wrong right?? it's like the thing jicca fed tsurine otw to sterlie in disc 1) thank you cuz it's like the one food in this game i genuinely can't tell if i'd eat or not. yes to the heart burster btw. no to the loopworm vaccine. 

(+2)

omg same hydroponics is irreversibly connected to throwup club for me (and everyone else in the throwup club discord.) i'm so glad you enjoyed it. puffados are an in-universe "pastry similar to a croissant x stuff donut (Like a more donut-y stuffed croissant) (AND the puffado originates in Libercaude)" - quote from game dev herself

(+6)

new art LETS GOOO

(+4)

I recently finished DISC 1 and i can certainly say that Throwup Club became one of my favourite games ever. In visual novel genre it already became one of the best in my opinion. The story is immersive,all characters are lovable and interesting,the music is enjoyable and the attention in details is a nice surprise for me(getting items and usb from unexpected places)

 I wish good luck to throwpup in this beautiful project. I really look forward to DISC 2 and new updates i check itch.io often for it :)

 I liked every character up until now but my top 5 would be

1-Jicca

2-Uphie

3-Tsurine

4-Kimi

5-Matty

(+4)

ayyyy so glad you enjoyed :>
throwpup will be releasing a new video soon showcasing all the new art that is being put into the next disc 2 update!!!!
the showcase is out early in the throwup club discord which you can join by going to the "About" page within the game (reminder the server is for 18+)

i respect your top 5, piamat is my number 1 i think so far :3

i really like this game :)

(+4)

i love throwup club!!!!

(+3)

Unfortunately couldn't hear any of the OST or SFX due to an issue with my PC's speakers.. but it's absolutely amazing, the art is unique, and while I wasn't expecting much as I grabbed it when Disc 1 was out for free.

I'm glad I did, will be patiently awaiting for Disc 2 and more!

(+5)

This so far is an absolute amazing game. at first I wasn't too crazy about but I'm glad I stuck it out to.the end cuz this this game had me hooked quick at the end of disc 0. And disc 1 is even better. love the character designs, the overall design of the game is very interesting and unique. The soundtrack is also incredible btw really matches the atmosphere of the game. Can't wait for the other discs to come out. This game has a lot of potential to be one of the greats. Also I played this game on YouTube my reading is kinda terrible LMAO I tried my best. I do really like the game tho

(+2)

OMG thank you so much the game dev and I (ost composer) have been eagerly awaiting someone to make a video! we will be watching this over the next week when we find the time <3

also your compliments were amazing! thank you so much, i agree that this game is going to be one of the greats (already one of the greats imo :3) there is a whole lot of secrets and achievements, i can't wait to see what your run looks like <3

(+4)

genuinely one of the best visual novels ive ever played, the story so far is intriguing and insanely intricate, the characters are well written and feel alive. the music is similarly amazing and ive relistened to it multiple times. i cannot overstate just how amazing this is and i cant wait for further discs :D

(+9)

(Sorry for bad englishhhh-- and this is gonna be a pretty long comment aaa)

I just finished disc 1 and it was soooooo cool!! First thing that grabbed my attention when I opened the game was aesthetic, how well music, backgrounds, gui, characters completed each other!

I really, really loved characters! The way the conversations with them felt natural and how realistic they were - their problems, realtionships, their personalities, the way they acted. Also I have to mention how caring Uphie is????????? She is so lovely and thoughtful-- like when Tsurine holds a sharp object and Uphie offers to put it away for her for her own good. Or when she explains situation when Tsurine is confused-- I can't, she is such an great person :'3 

Others are great as well! Like Primat - even if you can talk with her for a pretty short time, you can grasp what person she is nonetheless! And thats impressive; to show so much of her personality in one scene! The same with Jicca~ Even if she might seem 'like a robot', she feels very real. And Leida - I liked her even from just reading her messages, so this is impressive character writing once again xD

Ooh, and worldbuilding!! I've read the map and all the USB I found and whoa, it makes me feel like I'm looking into a world where characters are living their lives. I'm not very good with words, but I mean it feels real!! Like not something made up, but something well thought! And I think this is awesome!! And idea with hospital-like world is sOOO COOL, I LOVE IT!! 

Alsooooo I really liked music!! And atmosphere is amazing, I love it! AND HBHSBJABDJHBW don't let me forget about mentioning one of my favorite parts!! Horror elements are made so well????? Like so very well?????? Like the scene in elevator-- You can just feel the anxiety from your monitor!! I feel that later, when plot develops more, there will be even more amazing scenes like that, and I'm really looking forward to it! (On the other hand I don't want Tsu to suffer aaa)

Last thing I wanted to talk is some sort of bug(?) maybe?? Sometimes when I was in shop or menu cursor wasn't visible. It is nothing serious, but it made navigating a little more difficult. Also I think it would be pretty handy if backlog was a little longer and/or had shortcut. Lastly if there was a skip button for already read text, but these are only my suggestions :>

I'm really excited for combat mechanics, new art and whatever is going to happen next!! And happy that I gave it a try, playing it was such a blast and best wishes on working on disc 2!! Have a great day!!! ^w^

(2 edits) (+6)

One of the best visual novels I've ever played! the ost and the art style is amazing. I can't wait for the next disks. I highly recommend giving it a try :D

(+2)

thank youuuu; i'm glad you enjoyed it!! Disc 2 is gonna be great c:

(+3)

Absolutely phenomenal game, one of the best I've ever played on here. I haven't been playing very long but my paranoia compels me to ask: how does one save their game? XP

(+3)

aww thank you! :D 

if you hit ESC or middle mouse click, it'll pull up the menu, and from there there should be a save option. just click on any of the save slots and it should be saved c:

(1 edit) (+3)

Somehow I missed that hnnn. Thanks for letting me know! And truly, having finished disc 0 and now onto disc 1, this game is truly special, hands-down one of the best I've played on here period!

(+2)

ehehe that's wonderful, i'm so glad to hear!! And I hope you have fun with diiiisc one c: it's got sooooo much more stuff! 

(+3)

I just saw that it updated now, I'm so happy that I get to experience more of this amazing game! I keep talking about how excited I am to my friends and annoying them but idc because I'm so happy lol, please keep up the amazing work <3

Thanks for letting them know about it, and for the lovely comments c: I hope you're enjoying Disc 1 as much, or even more!!

The next disc is gonna be wiiiiiild, but before then, I plan to release a few cool D1 updates. So- for the time being... 'Eyes Open!' :3

(+5)

Throwup Club grabs you by your threat and submerges you in the surreal. Though the surreal evokes viciously real feelings in a good way.

Since its Yuri Day at the time of writing (25.06.2024) some things need to be mentioned:
- The cast is girls only
- The girls are people not characters and you need to treat them as such
- There are plenty of romance options but you need to commit (which is a plus in my book)

(+1)

Thank you Suzie :D

(+1)

This is legitimately one of the best VNs I've ever played, and I highly recommend it to anyone who stumbles upon it. Also join the discord! The community is super duper cool and there's tons of theorizing that goes on in there.

Take the time to explore and go off the beaten path. The fastest way to the end is by listening to the narration and objectives, but the best way to play the game is to click basically everything all the time everywhere.

Go play it. It's very good.

💚💚💚💚 thank you :D

(+1)

it looks great!! i wish it was on mac </3

(1 edit)

Hello! I'm uploading a version for mac right now :3

It should be available in 10-20 minutes on my drive. It is now avalible!

I do not own a mac though, so I'm unable to test it to see if it works or has issues, and if it does, I'm unable to fix them.

Though I can advise that if you don't see a tooltip appear during the Difficulty Select screen, or in the inventory- go into the Options menu and click the 'Tooltips' text until it says "Tooltips appear in the upper left corner" It'll fix a bug I'm guessing you might run into on mac. But maybe not! Fingers crossed c:

(+6)

best visual novel so relatable and oozing style, truly unique and one of a kind!

(+6)

game so good it makes you want to create a second account just to comment and rate again

allegedly

(+6)

Great game, absolutely packed with content despite its price

whether you have an afternoon or a full weeks worth of free time, you can fill it up with this game

(+7)

This. Game. Is. MARVELOUS.


We've got only Disc 0 and Disc 1 atm but oh god they are FILLED with content, 10-15 hours easy. 15 hours of pure kino. And CUTE GIRLS, god I love CUTE GIRLS in my favourite point'n'click visual novel indie game Throwup Club.


Play this game, it's peak.

(+5)

One of the best point and click/VN's I've ever played. The characters are really well written to the point where it's likely to feel bad about their situations, furthermore the dialogue is amazing. Despite not being fully released the content already provided is enough to have you itching for more.

10/10 I'd recommend.

(+6)

is good👍

(+7)

i like this game! the elements scratch a part of my brain i can't describe, it's also sad to know the maker is terminally ill.. its not much but i decided to pay for part 2 to support!

(+6)

I'm so happy disc one is out! This is the best game I've played in a long time. truly unique style, amazing music, and the amount of content in just the prologue and first chapter is insane!! Keep up the good work <3

(+4)

This game has a great sense of humor. with witty dialogue and fun Easter eggs to discover.

(+7)

fan fucking tastic game, disc 1 is 100% my favorite game of this year. worth every second. play it, and then play it again. and remember, eyes open

(2 edits) (+6)

Play it, then once you're done play it again, the hours you dedicate scouring & sleuthing for information will be rewarded,it will engross you with a delicately meticulously crafted world & you will love every second of it. so give it a chance, it's worth your time.

(+7)

I love throwup club. This is turning me into a visual novel fan. I'm extremely glad I stumbled across this

(+7)

DISC 1 OUT NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(+6)

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

(+2)

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

(+3)

NEW UPDATE YAY :)

(1 edit) (+6)

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!

so,how did you make payment on itch 0.0

when you hit the download button, itll ask for a donation, and if you give $2 or more, it'll give you access to the d1 folder :3

(+4)

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

(+2)

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 :>

(+4)

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.)

(+4)

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:
