Neon Doctrine said it would end the year with a bang, and it did. Instead of simply celebrating the end of the year, it went all out with a Winter Bloodbath event.

It recently announced that a beta version of its upcoming indie game "My Lovely Wife", in collaboration with Banten-based studios GameChanger Studio and Toge Productions, would be available on Steam. My Lovely Wife is a visual novel that tells a story of guilt and grief. It lets players experience the life of a man who desperately uses dark magic to bring his late wife to life.

Players will begin the game as Jake, a husband and father who is suffering from the loss of his wife. He is tasked with saving her soul by sacrificing the succubi he obtains. The game begins with a letter written by Luna, the love of Jake's life. She asks players, who will be acting as Jake, to perform rituals to bring her back to life.

The game has various features, including dating, alchemy, and management simulations. It also has multiple endings with high replay value. It is delivered with the Gothic fantasy art style, eerie soundtrack that sends shivers down your spine, and uncanny love dilemma as Jake must crush the lives of others to save his dear Luna.

You only have a few succubi murdering days left, so make the best of it?

My Lovely Wife Beta is still live for 2 more days!
