A Novel Appetite - A vampire bookshop game — prey only on bad authors

by•
A Novel Appetite is a dark-comedy adventure game set in a vampire's bookshop. Run Aspen's bookshop by night — shelving, recommending, choosing dinner. You prey only on bad authors. Five nights, one fire, one awkward insurance claim — the shop is never quite the same. Adapted from the maker's book, with hand-cut paper visuals in silent-film style, an original score, and a story in verse. $1.99, pay once and play it all. No ads. No in-app purchases. No account. No data collected. Works offline.

Hey Product Hunt — I'm Jesse, solo dev at Mr. Bray Labs. A Novel Appetite started as my dark-comedy book about a vampire who owns a bookstore and only eats bad authors. This year I turned it into the game I always saw in my head: paper-cutout art like a silent film, an original score, and the whole story in verse. It's $1.99 — pay once, play it all. No ads, no IAP, no account, and it collects zero data. Five nights behind the counter, one fire, one very awkward insurance claim. I'd love to hear what you think — especially which author you'd serve up first.
