Secret Little Haven

wowwowwow. Absolutely amazing, such a good story about trans people with an amazing atmosphere. John is terrifying! I absolutely loved this, so sad but so good. play it

"...I want to be a girl, Alex."

Just finished streaming this after not playing it for 5 years.

I love you all.
Thank you for making this piece of art that shows how Alex has -zero- chill and how the game itself has no chill and will flay everyone to the bone and make them feel things. 
Some updates: I've been following the Laguna path for about 2 years now, next month! Playing this game a second time made me resonate far more with Laguna than my prior play through. I am so happy to have found so many girlies online to build community and friendships. And... you know what?
I'm figuring it out.

You will too, girl! ~<3

Victoria Dominowski you owe me a package of tissues ;_; thank you for creating this

I love it!! Couldn't contain my excitement going through it, and really resonates with me too much!!

Love this game! Probably the best explicitly trans game I've ever seen, and one of the best retro desktop simulators!

genuinely amazing and this probably wouldve cracked my egg if i wasnt trans already <3

YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 <3<3

This is genuinely the best game I have ever played and made me cry please make another game I am begging you

 this game looks awesome

^_^

I wish things were given more room to breathe, like in Terranova--right now it feels like every single conversation has to be nonstop gender. But there's a lot of attention to detail, like including actual fanart and fanfic and stuff, which is very nice.

really good game! but im really confused about the unlockable codes? i cant find anywhere to enter them?

i laughed, i cried, i wrote fanfiction for a show that didn't exist. excellent work.

thank you

one of the most beautiful games ive ever played. as a trans person, thank you.

i almost never write anything but, this game has made genuinely tear up and made me cry in a way i haven´t cried in a long time and and the panic i felt during the Jhon sections was way too real and the hope from the ending and that little smile that "She'll figure it out" generated on me to the point i hadn´t even realise that the were a smile in my tear filled face 

you have made a wonderful experience not just for transgirls but anyone willing to gave this game a shot i highly doubt i can comment my experience in this moment of my life since inside the closet there is not that much to see but the internet and especially this game had made my day (sorry for the bad English and hella long comment but i felt like speaking specifically since i just finished it) thanks for this ;3

I don't normally make comments about the content I play, but this one really stuck with me.

You've really created something quite beautiful and touching. Seeing a multitude of trans girls at different stages in their experiences really was special and relatable. God, the longing. So well expressed.

I really like how it doesn't shy away from some of the harshest struggles that trans people face both in a literal and metaphysical sense. All while cloaked in an aesthetic that just screams "reclamation of childhood". It just all comes together in a way that's unique and evocative.

I could criticize the finicky volume slider/CRT settings, the terminal issues, etc. However, I didn't play this game to have a flawless experience. I played it to feel something. You definitely achieved that.

Thank you for making this. Thank you for making me cry. Hopefully we're all on our own paths toward figuring it out. <3

Prinzipiell finde ich das OS sehr überzeugend und an sich mag ich es ja auch mich durch Informationen zu wühlen. Allerdings passiert das Storytelling via Chat und ist zunächst absolute Zeitverschwendung. ich habe gefühlt eine halbe Stundenlang die Texte übersetzt und vorgelesen sowie alle mir möglichen Optionen ausprobiert um voranzukommen, sowie Seiteneinträge und Mails durchforstet.

Am Ende des Tages, sind die irrelevanten Infos sehr Detailgetreu, aber leider fehlt mir etwas der Rote Faden warum ich überhaupt dieses Spiele.

Ich kann kann Ahnen, dass es um eine Person geht, die ihrem Hobby nachgeht und ihrem Vater zuwider Pflichten sowie wünsche von diesem vernachlässigt.

Allerdings catched mich die Story leider so gar nicht und es kommt auch nicht wirklich in Fahrt.

Die Umsetzung ist wirklich gut, aber leider holt mich die Geschichte bisher so gar nicht ab. Ich hätte mich z.B. auch über mehr Details der Protagonisten gefreut, seien es Fotos, Fantasien oder andere kleine schmutzige Geheimnisse. Hier geht es darum Mäuschen zu spielen, allerdings ist es für mich eher wie ein Rückblick in mein jugendliches ich.

Dito: 2.5/5

Secret Little Haven is the first entry in the new mental list "Games I have recommended to my therapist".

Hi there! I'm CJ—I'm working on a master list of interface drama and would like to include your game as an interface drama. I really loved playing through this game. It was recommended as a companion piece to our game Terranova and I agree; it gave me a lot of queer feels. ;;

I'm reaching out to devs like you to confirm that I have accurate tags of your game.

Right now, the tags on Secret Little Haven are:  
- lgbtqia+
- nostalgia
- relationship driven

If there's any other tags on the list, or ones you'd like to add, please let me know.

Thank you for your time!

John's sections almost gave me an anxiety attack. 10/10

puzzles are really hard for some reason (not really im just stupid) other than that absurdly good game
