A two-hour lesbian visual novel about memory and messy intimacy
StashlyVN Review
Keep in Touch, Okay? is putzpinkie's entry into the Toxic Yuri VN Jam 2, a linear narrative following Zoey as she reconstructs fragmented memories of her relationship with her roommate Cherry. The game doesn't pretend to offer branching paths or multiple endings—what it does offer is roughly 8,500 words of intimate, deliberately non-chronological storytelling that treats its characters' emotional damage as the central subject rather than backdrop.
Gameplay is minimal by design. You progress through scenes by clicking or pressing Space, with the ability to scroll back through dialogue at will. The experience unfolds over approximately two hours, structured more like reading a collection of interconnected vignettes than navigating a traditional choice-driven narrative. This approach serves the material well; non-linear sequencing mirrors how memory actually works, especially when processing complicated relationships. Scenes accumulate and recontextualize one another as you move forward.
The adult content here is woven into a story about psychological codependency, trauma response, and the blurred line between passion and self-harm. putzpinkie doesn't shy away from depicting intimate moments alongside explicit references to BDSM and sexual content, but these scenes exist within a framework that acknowledges their complications rather than celebrating them uncritically. The game includes content warnings for childhood trauma, emotional dependency, panic attacks, alcohol abuse, internalized misogyny, and strong language—these aren't cosmetic tags but structural elements of what you're experiencing.
Technically, the game runs on HTML5 with Windows and Linux builds available, making it accessible across multiple systems. The furry aesthetic combined with queer narrative and mature thematic weight positions this squarely in a specific niche: players seeking adult visual novels that treat their subject matter with psychological nuance rather than detachment.
Pros

Cons
- No choices means replayability is limited to seeing what you missed
- Heavy trauma content throughout requires emotional tolerance
- Minimal visual variety across two hours
- Doesn't explore Cherry's internal perspective in depth
- Linear structure may feel restrictive for choice-driven VN fans
