Monospaced Lovers

Monospaced Lovers is a platform-adventure game about Clara, whose quiet life in Haven Heights is disrupted when she wakes to find a phone that is not hers. It contains a message from a hacker called the God of Binary, warning that her time in this world is short. Clara and a mysterious new friend, who also woke up with an unfamiliar phone, follow encrypted messages on the devices to investigate the hacker and his talk of the end of the world. Her friends are ready to pull her into the quest if she does not set out herself.

Explore Haven Heights

You explore Clara’s quaint hometown, meet its residents and follow non-linear, RPG-style story quests. The game combines exploration-driven quests and puzzles with a visual novel-inspired story that mixes comedy, drama, social anxiety and philosophical themes. Clara is a heroine with her own personality and feelings rather than a silent protagonist.

The puzzles are unconventional and metafictional, with in-game hints available. You can talk to the local Tanuki, learn to translate Slimespeak and search the town for more than 60 collectibles.

Platforming and battles

Platforming also features bullet-dodging challenges. The game includes more than four bullet-hell boss battles, as well as additional challenge rooms.

Story and world

The story runs to more than 100,000 words and follows Clara as she investigates the encrypted messages and the God of Binary’s connection to her peaceful life. Its hand-painted world centres on Haven Heights and the mystery of what the hacker wants and what he means by the end of the world.
