'No Longer Home' Release Date Set For Next Week - Trailer

by Rainier on July 20, 2021 @ 5:00 a.m. PDT

No Longer Home is a slice-of-life story, inviting players to immerse themselves in the lives of Ao and Bo, two queer, non-binary students who’ve recently graduated and are preparing to leave the flat they’ve shared for a year.

No Longer Home is a tale of non-binary friends making tough decisions at important times in their lives.
"Not another game with vague LGBTQ themes to try to grab attention" you say?
What if I said the game is semi-autobiographical from two non-binary developers? And what if it was a narrative of difficult choices that hits you in the feels while making you think?

Explore the flat, have conversations with friends and get to know Lu, the multi-eyed animal-like new flatmate. Find magic in everyday moments like BBQs with friends and playing video games together as the duo come to terms with an uncertain future. 

The No Longer Home Soundtrack is composed by IGF-nominated sound artist and composer Eli Rainsberry (they/them) of A Monster's Expedition, Bird Alone, Wilmot’s Warehouse, with contributions from session musician Derek Daley (he/him), and composer for the prequel Friary Road Paws Menu (he/him).

“Precarity and identity are the predominant themes through the story. The events in the game are based on our own experiences, during a time when we were feeling disillusioned with post uni life and trying to figure out what to do next.’ says Cel Davison (they/them), Lead Writer & Cinematographer. “No Longer Home is about exploring our place in the world and finding wonder in everyday domesticity.”

Hana Lee (they/them), Lead Artist & Animator added: “After graduation, due to visa restrictions I unfortunately had to go back to Japan. The game originally came about as a way for Cel and I to stay in touch, to explore and express the emotions that came with saying goodbye.” 

 The No Longer Home soundtrack and the prequel Friary Road Soundtrack will be available for $9.99 and $4.99 respectively.  The Farewell Edition bundle of the game will be available, including the base game and both soundtracks.

No Longer Home is coming to PC (Steam, Epic Games Store, Humble and GOG.com) on July 30, 2021 for $14.99 with a 20% launch discount for 1 week.
