Note written 2026-08-22; the live figures above take precedence over any numbers in it.
A short visual novel set in Japan exploring long-distance romance through intimate character relationships and atmospheric storytelling.
The Ocean Between Us is a quietly profitable micro-title with exceptional player satisfaction (95% positive, 80% still-playing rate) and zero dev activity for one month, suggesting dormancy post-launch. At $1,454/mo residual revenue on just 1,856 lifetime units, this is a niche-but-stable earner. For publishers or labels acquiring backlist catalog, this represents proven evergreen appeal in the visual-novel segment without ongoing support costs; for revival, modest localization (Simplified Chinese gap at 8.6%) and gallery features could unlock incremental upside. Most realistic play: acquisition.
- Risk: Genre is crowded and price-sensitive; elasticity of -1 suggests limited room to adjust pricing or drive volume.
- Risk: No developer posts in past 12 months and build is 1.1 months old; unclear whether studio is actively maintaining or has moved to next project.
- Risk: No workshop, cards, achievements, or cloud saves; minimal platform integration limits discovery and engagement loops.
