Promises to Keep
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android
Promises to Keep (PTK) is a queer, furry, safe-for-work (16+) visual novel. Please be warned that while entirely safe-for-work, PTK does feature themes of religious & familial trauma, injury, mental illness, minor body horror, and homophobia. Some scenes may not be suitable for individuals with epilepsy (but there are in-game warnings for these scenes). v0.7 is now available (Rofi Day 4, Day 3 for everyone else). This version has around 10 hours of content, featuring an original soundtrack of 20+ songs, 50+ beautifully drawn backgrounds and fully-illustrated CGs, and 100+ unique character sprites. Find us on Twitter and support us on Patreon for early game updates, exclusive content, art raffles, and if you’d like to be featured in PTK as a cameo!
A promise is the greatest, most significant thing anyone can make, in a reality where nothing is permanent. They are guarantees we make to one another, knowing that guarantees are fruitless; their existence contradicts the fleeting, temporary nature of our universe. Yet, they live on in the face of this futility.
So, what happens when the promises you make to yourself go cold? When your promises to others are left empty?
PTK follows the journey of a post-college snow leopard after returning to his childhood home. After a year of wishful thinking, living in the footsteps of his past and the childhood promises he has yet to fulfill, he's convinced there's nothing more for him here. Then, disaster strikes.
Join him in a story of deep self-discovery, reunion, and light-hearted romance as he grows with a vibrant group of individuals brought together by unlikely circumstances.
** Please note that all content is subject to change as the game undergoes further development, and that the current version may not fully represent the final game. **

I really love all the soundtracks so far, they did a very good job building the atmosphere for the story. Could I by any chance listen to them on any apps or find them anywhere?
Hi

Holy crab it's Mordecai
I LOVE IT keep up the great work guys I just replayed the 0.7 update honetly one of my favorite VNs right now seriosly keep it up
cg's got updated but leo still has a doorbell that works without power. also Theo still goes out without winter coat
i got a little confused bc of the picture of rofi and hunter together, and the part where it said ''Do you really think his love was worth anything near theirs'', is he talking about us or hunter?
Made some phone and PC wallpapers of Hunter bc i love him and as appriciation for this gem yall made, keep doing awsome stuff guys, we love you
omg cute!!!!!
I'm gonna finish this review later, on day like 1??, and my reaction is "🤔😯, Oh my GOD OLLIE, Ollieeeeee~ 🤩"
i seriously need the person to marry rofi at the end of his route
Absolutely peak VN. The talk with Ollie on day 3 completely shook me... and Hunter is hot.
Confused me for a minute lol 😂 In UK slang peak means bad
Honestly amazing game you guys are creating. I laughed, I got anxious, I cried and more; I love stories like this. Books, visual novels, comics and more that have such beautifully crafted stories with passion behind them.
I can see why others are mad the MC doesn't hug Rofi, but from my understanding the MC seems to be a very social lacking character and it would make sense why they don't hug Rofi because to me it reminded me of well - me. Someone who isn't good at helping others emotionally or understanding what is good or right in such emotional moments.
Dude, you have no idea how much it pissed me off when MC didn’t hug Rofi. Amazing update but fucking OUCH…
Spoilers:
||mc was also in question whether or not he should hug him cuz with the years of separation he knows and he doesn't know him at the same time||
Yeah I get it but Rofi has made it exceedingly obvious that he wants affection from MC. Also I guess I just like cuddling Rofi…
I want to help Rofi get out of sadness soon. It made me heartbroken.😭
i wonder whos day 4 is next
this broke my heart so bad, thank you for this amazing update.
IM NOW CRYING i need rofi as my husband
we all do
This 0.7 shit is the bomb yo, like chili p stuff level of bomb.

I love this vn smm, cant wait for the Rofi update 🥹🥹🫶
4 DAYS LEFT LETS GOO
I NEED ROFI!!!
我超级喜欢这个游戏轻松、浪漫的氛围❤
I just started this game, but already it's so beautiful. The way that winter is described right from the start -- as if it's a character itself -- absolutely enthralled me and pulled me in. The art is charming and full of character, the music is lovely and matches the settings well and the descriptive writing is wonderful. I'm hooked now.
Ten more days till public release ...
ROFIIIIIIII
update so peak... 🥹🥹
It's now on Android. Hm. Well I am gonna try
Free 0.7 when?
May 30th
Is there a canon name for the protagonist?
It's Leo! if you don't put in a name at the start of a playthrough, that's the name that will be used.
omg! i didn't know that!
When can version 0.7 be downloaded? expect(｡･ω･｡)
if you are subscribed to the Patreon, you can download it on May 16th. It will be released to the general public on May 30th!

可爱小狗狗！
This VN made my heart feel warm for the first time in a special way, i'm loving the story so far and i'm hyped for the next update, i love rofi and all the characters so much ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I know riiight?!?! :333
:DDD Im not done the game but I already love it!!!
quick question... are we getting abused...? by our mom... or...?
and honestly we do kinda... act a little weird....? like yandere...?
oh wait nvm... its not us... OMG WAIT! is Theo getting abused??!!
Where did you see that in there?
He said he just had an asshole father who drank too much and was too religious. There was no mention of abuse, as I recall.
you know in the part where Theo was driving, he had like purple stuff on his neck? it kinda looked like he was being abused?
I looked and I just noticed it. But it would be illogical if the bruises were seen through the fur (since he and Leo have dense fur), and there they are stacked with spots with a small distance between each other, I do not think that it is exactly bruises, but it is still not clear what it is. He's also got a blue spot under his eye, but it's more like under-eye bags.
