An IOU is a refreshing departure from typical romance visual novels. Developed by Davey Cadaver with original art by Trevin Wyant, it subverts expectations by blending psychological horror with mundane love affairs.
The story follows Trevor and Mallory, whose emotional bond unfolds against a backdrop of dark imagery. The hand-painted watercolour and pastel artwork is expressive and striking to look at.
Hovering between platonic and romantic, An IOU effectively portrays the pains and terrors of emotional cheating. It's a short, unique experience that challenges conventions and leaves a lasting impression.
