Dreambound Completed Sprite - Kaine
Introducing the first love interest in Dreambound, Kaine! Kaine and Noah are/were childhood friends. Their relationship these days is a little more strained, due to Noah withdrawing from everything.
He works in a cushy government job, though dreamed of being a chef as a teenager. He gave up his dreams in pursuit of helping Noah, even if he doesn't realize it.

The artist for Dreambound is Sinran, author of webtoons Path to You and Night Fragm...

Hello, everyone!
It's finally time to share some more about our next major project, Dreambound. You will have seen yesterday we still have a lot of TDS projects in the works, but Dreambound will be our next major game that will feature a Kickstarter.
Meet Noah, our protagonist on the left, and August on the right. Despite appearances, the game isn't set in their high school years, though it is still important to the story.
