A game by Puxel Games

Anika is gone. Alice won't stop until she finds the truth.

Hi everyone,

I'm the solo developer behind Puxel Games, and Gone Missing is a project I've been working on with a lot of care and excitement.

I'm still learning and improving as I go, but I'm doing my best to create a game with interesting characters, a story worth following, and visuals that keep getting better with every scene.

I want to share the development process, hear honest feedback, and improve the project together with the community. Any comment, suggestion, or support genuinely means a lot to me and helps keep me motivated.

The Premise

What is the story about?

For reasons still unknown, people around the world have begun to disappear.

When Alice wakes up one morning and realizes that her girlfriend, Anika, is missing too, she decides to search for her. What begins as a personal search soon leads to a chain of unexpected events.

Your Alice, Your Decisions

What is the player's role?

You play as Alice, the protagonist, and guide her through the story with your choices.

01

Loyalty

During her search for Anika, Alice's loyalty may be tested. Whether she remains focused or explores a different path is up to you.

02

Hope

Her hope may begin to fade as the search continues, changing how she responds to the people and dangers around her.

03

Consequences

Some choices unlock new paths while others close them permanently. Not every consequence will be immediately obvious.

Questions & Answers

FAQ

Do choices matter?

Yes. Your choices will affect Alice's relationships, the situations she experiences, and the direction of her journey. Some decisions may unlock new paths, while others may close them permanently.

Will Alice only have relationships with women?

The choice is entirely in your hands. However, Alice has never tasted a penis before. Whether that ever changes will depend entirely on your choices.

Can adult scenes be avoided?

Many intimate scenes and relationship paths will depend on the player's choices.

Will the game include animations?

Yes. Selected scenes will include animations.

Will the game have voice acting?

When will the first version be released?

There is no confirmed release date yet. I do not want to announce a date before the opening chapter reaches a level of quality I am comfortable with. Meaningful progress and previews will continue to be shared during development.
