Perhaps… but I can always hope for change to be just around the corner\!…”  Sveta is a young bank intern\. She believes that there is no end to the cycle of monotony that has become her life; secretly wishing for change but is too depressed to find the motivation\.  Vlad is an unsociable, devil\-may\-care freelancer without any respect for the status quo who prefers to work alone\.  They find their lives turned upside\-down when they are forced to work together on an urgent, high\-profile project that could change the course of their careers\.  Can they work together despite their differences? Will this relationship change their lives for the better?  Features:     A visual novel with an old\-school style  – take a trip back to the 80’s with ASCII\-art\!    Music by Sergey Eybog, compositor of “Everlasting Summer”  – a compilation of chiptune\-style melodies that complement the vibe of the game\.    ”Less than 1MB for download?\!”  Winter Novel has been made in pure C – just like how they were in the good old days\.    30\-60 minutes of gameplay  – a game for the visual novel fans and curious casual gamers alike\!
