Paper Kite: Threads of Longing

Wuhan Liyu Game Studio's debut work! A short pure-love GALGAME Chinese long-distance relationship story "Paper Kite"! This trial version currently only fully supports Simplified Chinese (optimizations for other languages will be added later). [Your language now supports game text translation; UI translation is in progress (click "Start Game" to run dialogue content). If you encounter translation issues, please leave feedback in the game review section—we'll resolve any language problems. Thank you!] The full game has approximately 120,000 to 200,000 words, with the trial version at around 15,000 words, covering only the initial chapters. The trial version tells the early story of Shen Luoying and Chen Yanqing, setting the stage for their separation due to distance. The full version will depict their post-separation story (expected release: late summer 2025).

Scheduled for release in August 2025!

After the grueling college entrance exams in June, Shen Luoying and Chen Yanqing—newly confessed lovers—are forced to attend universities in separate cities (Beijing and Jiangcheng) due to parental expectations and academic scores. Pulled apart by distance, they strive to nurture their fragile bond across four turbulent years of college life. Like a delicate paper kite, their long-distance relationship hangs by a thread, demanding mutual effort to weather storms of doubt, pressure, and change. Will their love soar against the winds of adversity... or unravel under the strain?
