Between Humanity
A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android
Between Humanity is a story driven novel which takes you on a journey into a potential future that borders on dystopia. Set just five years ahead, you, as the protagonist, were just an ordinary student until one day you wake up in a hospital room.
All memories of why you ended up there are blurred in the depths of your mind. But as soon as you try to go back to your daily life, you realize that something is fundamentally different. You are invited to live in your best friend's house, where you will also be sharing the space with her mother and sister, each of whom has their own set of problems and daily struggles. What could possibly go wrong with that?
With every decision you make, you not only change your own life but also that of your friends and loved ones. It's in your hands which game you want to play.

☆•.¸★ I m sexy? Here are my erotic photos ★⡀.•☆ https://link24.kr/EI3eD3V
I was honestly shocked by how good this game is. Definitely looking forward to future updates!
Happy to hear, thank you very much! =D
我很高兴，MC 和我一样喜欢熊猫。他们可以治愈一切，故事也很有趣。期待第四章！
非常感谢！熊猫太棒了！:)
This one honestly blindsided me with how good the story is. There are quite a few tropey and cliché parts, but not to the extent it kills the narrative.
This easily sits in my top ten favorites. The side-story about MC's father hits a little too close to home (My dad was killed in 2012), and I won't lie I bawled like a baby at the fadeout scene in his office in Ch. 3.
I will definitely be watching this one for updates.
Hey there, I'm very sorry to hear about your dad!! I might have put lot of my own emotions into the story since I lost my dad last year as well.
Avns apparently life of clichés :D but yeah, I hit some nails like most games do. Glad you enjoy it nonetheless, thank you very much!
I'm just stunned after 2 days of first completing, honestly and really literally one of the best work of masterpiece (A true masterpiece), cannot even imagine that will be soon, hope work on this piece of heaven will not as hard and enjoyable, also like aaaaaa lot of small things every very makes it so freaking good and moment with Anya "oh, can you look, my pc don't turn on" so ah it just perfect <3 (Now, back to petting panda)🐼
Thank you very much! Happy to hear that you enjoyed the small things I added to the game =D. Petting a panda is a great thing!
I click a replay in the gallery but it can't play replay anything but show only picture!
Already fixed in the latest itch 0.3.2 version, like we talked over on discord. :)
At first i got a random real crash when loading a save and got worried my save is corrupt (the rollback wasnt working) but when i restarted the game all was fine. About 2 minutes later i got the "fake crash" and before i read the text i was starting to get mad lmao, nice humor dev. You got me
Hey there, sorry to hear that it crashed, if you'd like, you can provide the text from inside the traceback.txt file (next to the game.exe file, also remove the path if it contains your local username). Might be due to the RenPy version I used during 0.3.1, not sure about that. Also thank you, glad you enjoyed it! :D
I love the game. Almost fell for the fake crash part too. Hilarious. Makes me wonder how many people actually fell for it. "No exceptions have occurred." Lmao. Evil genious.
Haha, thank you very much! :D I bet quite some people fell for it as I even got bug reports because of it.
Loved the game very excited for act4. I really appreciated the end of chapter summary because I hate missing stuff in AVNS.
Thank you very much, happy to hear! :D
i was sad when it came to an end. also the end of ch3 creeped out. i probably will wait until the whole game is complete before playing again. will chloe be an option later? shes my favorite. i dont care for lucy. shes too timid all the time. i appreciate that the mc and rest of the characters are attractive. i wish there was more diversity/ethnicities in the women though.
Sorry to hear that you're sad about it, I'm working on more! Chloe will definitely be an option. The characters will grow over the time as well, it's not that they're like this in the end, at least not all of them. I've already noted more divers women for a second game, if I'll be able to reach this far! :)
ok cool that sounds great
I really love the story I can see you've really put a lot of work into this but I'm hooked up in the game the chapter 4 gotta come out pls I'm begging :> anyways keeps up the good work <3
Thank you very much! Working on 0.4 but it'll take some time of course, still in the writing phase, need to get the flow going!
Hey, I've just reached end of chapter 3, and my hearth remains wanting more. This beautiful and immersive journey took me 11:30 hours of intense emotions, evoking all kind of feelings in me.
These last nights, starting to play at midnight, till the charm of sunshine stroking on my face, would be the perfect resume as I could define this amazing game. The characters, story, music (that inspiring melody on menu attached in my head 💕) and quality is simply stunning. Also cried in some nostalgic scenes...
I know spicy content is core for the best experience, but trust me, it could also be played perfectly by following the straight path (for non NSFW players).
Lastly, I scarcely (almost never I'd say) review games (or something... such shyness reminds me some cute girl...) but today it's completely neccesary (literally just created this account...). At the moment, I can't support by Patreon, but is some willing help is needed regarding spanish (mother tongue) or even testing (know basics about QA), I'll be delighted ❤
Cheers!
Thank you so much for the nice and detailed review! Happy to hear that you liked it and want more, and even made an account extra to write this, super awesome!!!
I try my best to get the player to feel every kind of emotion throughout the game, not just the obvious sex-related ones! It's always something I wanted in certain movies which I loved watching but they were missing the certain NSFW and deep relationship component, if that makes sense for you.
There is a Spanish translation in the main game folder "/game/tl/spanish" which you are free to correct any issues you find and send back to me, would love to give out a human corrected version to every native Spanish speaker. So that would be a great way to help the community if you want to! :-)
Thanks again and have a great day,
Cheers!
Thanks for your reply. I have no doubts that you've got perfectly those deep bond components! All your efforts have been worth. I'm also taking into account your last suggestions as I played it on Android, so thank you again.
Best wishes for the development of the next updates! <3
On android you'd have to download the file from my discord translation channel, or you can also grab the spanish translation from here: https://mega.nz/folder/ez4miIxT#kcWQxo_4Re1SiNvaTXokAg. Thank you! <3 :)
Thanks for making this great game to us my lord
Cool game, When does chapter 4 come out? Need a ending where i can fall in love with lucy
Thanks! In a couple of month probably. There will be a Lucy ending, but not in the near future.
Anya and Lucy is soooo prettyyy
Greetings from Russia!!! Just now complete last episode of your game . And i really exited to play that masterpiece ! Can't wait for a new update !
Best wishes friend!!
Thank you! Greetings back to you!
the character modeling is very exquisite, and it's a really good game to see.
Thank you very much! :)
If anything, you have at least the best phone out of any visual novel I've ever read xD
I wouldn't say the phone is the best things from my novel but thanks :D
I sincerely hope that the modeling of the male protagonist in the game will become more beautiful. Currently, the male protagonist looks too ordinary and not very handsome.
But this is still a game worth recommending!
I think it's better if he does look ordinary. Otherwise I'd say that only handsome male people get to have all the girls which is definitely not true. Just my two cents here. But there might be some additional adjustments made in the future, since a new haircut is something which naturally happens anyway :D
finally
you finally address this
not all mc need to look handsome
But my MC needs to look handsome? :D Or why do you say I finally address this?
hes not like overly handome like ryan gosling
Yeah, that would be overkill :D
I agree with your point of view. I recommended this game to my friend, but my friend thinks that the model of the male protagonist is not as delicate as that of the female protagonist. I am just reflecting this problem on his behalf. He may think that you don't pay as much attention to the modeling of the male protagonist as some other game makers.
It actually took quite some effort to get the mc to look like how he does. I made every character to suit my tastes. I really like how the girls turned out and the mc as an ordinary guy as well. No other avn has an mc who looks like mine, so it's not that I didn't pay much attention. I'm just a guy and I don't know what guys like in other guys tbf. :D Also having room for improvements is always good, the MC doesn't need to be a badass from the get-go. That's not what this game is about.
ok
I think he looks fine. Not unhandsome either. He could stand to be taller though xD
yeah
A bit taller works out, yes. He's supposed to be around 175cm. Might not come over like it, but I try to have a consistent perspective. But with enough calcium or other things, he could probably grow up to 180cm ;D
Loving the story so far.. probably the best premise i have red in a while.. keep it up! <3
Thank you very much! Happy to hear! <3
So I have never put mods on android before so I don't know how to find the place to put the mod for Android and I've been looking
Hey there, you need to extract the .zip file contents to the following location: "/Android/data/com.dbpanda.betweenhumanity/files/game/". The walkthrough.rpyc file needs to be in that game folder in the end for it to work automatically.
By the zip files contents do you mean the mods or the games because if you mean the mods I don't know where to find Android/data/com.dbpanda.betweenhumanity/files/game
You need to download a file manager app on your android phone and then navigate to that folder, should be fairly straightforward afaik :). Zip file contents refers to the mod.
Slower story-focused game that shows promise, but all that's there so far is a tease. Worth keeping on the watch list, but be aware it's a pretty short journey through as it stands so far; I'd recommend to wait for future updates.
It's about 6-8 hours content so far and yes, story focused, as written in the game's description :) I'll slowly build it up, don't worry.
Looking forward to future updates! The theme is a banger for sure, love the almost-reminiscent-of-Cyberpunk 2077 theme going on.
Thank you! Love Cyberpunk 2077, might have taken a little inspiration ;) Between Humanity plays around ~2030 though, so not that advanced, but still - the future -.
Idk if this is a bug, but when i entre the gallery, click a scene, it only shows the picture of the scene and not the scene itself, although there is a video icon on at the corner of the scene's image.
Hey! That sounds like a bug, which video is it? Or all of them?
Edit: It happens every time I update the RenPy framework, since I edited some of its source code. Fixed it now and will upload it later when I'm off work. Thanks for the report! :)
It was for all the available scenes, thank you so much for taking a look at it!!
This game dead?
Yep, as dead as your attempt at being original. RIP :(
No seriously is the game dead or not?
It's not dead, I dropped the 0.3 update last month and 0.3.2 like a couple days ago.
Well thanks. I just want to make sure that's it's still alive and thriving and not waste time on a masterpiece that will left me blueballed and dissapointed
Don't worry, I'm actively working on it. It's still early in the story, but I'm increasing the pace bit by bit. :)
Ouch 😬
I thought it was a troll post, so I trolled back :D
I know, but still, damn, you cooked him with words, lol.
😝 sometimes you have to troll back.
The truth is that it is a very good game, but a very good game, hahaha, it made me laugh a lot, hahaha, keep it up. By the way, when you finish the game, can you put it in Spanish? Thank you very much for reading.
Thank you very much! :) The game is already available in Spanish (0.3.1 introduced Spanish ML/AI translation)
I have a question about Alice: How do you stay on her path if you have lesbian content enabled? Because, the only way to unlock her scene, and by extension, start Amber's path, is also the way that loses Alice's path. Will there be a way for Michael to make things right with her in future chapters or something?
Also, I thought of another question while typing out the previous one: What does the purple line (I forget what it's called. ☹) do? The one you get with Naomi by just playing the game, and the one you can get with Jane if you choose "Try a slightly more dominant approach." What does it do?
I'm asking these 'cause it's been a while since I've played this game, as I've been focused on My Bully is My Lover and Sicae lately. So, I've forgotten some of the mechanics for this game, and I want a refresher for 0.4. I'm doing the same thing with Eternum in preparation for 0.9! 😃
Didn't really figure this all out yet, but Alice will only be available when you do Amber content. She's not a main LI. Since I don't want to split up branches too much I'll have them as great friends or benefriends and the content will be the same, except for the sexual interaction between them, which will only be happen if MC is on board if you turn the lesbian content off.
The purple bar is my approach at offering a more dominant route with two predefined characters (Naomi and Jane) :)
So, just to clarify, if you keep the game in it's default settings, where lesbian content is on, Alice's path is guaranteed to get axed, and there's no way around it unless you're also willing to lose Amber? Am I right on that?
And that makes sense, I probably should've figured that, haha. How will it make a difference in the long run?
Not really sure what "to get axed" means in this context, but MC will be on her path either way. Just the interactions between Amber and Alice will not be there at all. I try to get those paths to blur together anyway to reduce the workload later on.
Long run isn't planned so far yet, at least not for Alice.
Ohh okay, I gotcha. I think I understand. 👍Thanks for clearing that up! It's nice to know what's going on! Looking forward to the future. 💯
Ah I didn't know I'd find you here too my friend
Just an incredible game and story in the making here ! Cannot wait for more ! Good luck Panda just keep doing what your doing and a masterpeice is sure to be the result! 11/10 straight 🔥🔥🔥💯
Thank you very much! Happy to hear! =D Working on more!
Genuinely sad, as "Between Humanity" left me feeling disappointed, 🙁.
Not only was I unable to detect any spelling mistakes 😯🤔, but was enjoying B.H.'s narrative when I abruptly slammed into Chapter 3's "Currently the End" screen 😢. I was lost & unhappy, especially after having bought in the characters, story & animation.
Also, I most definitely hadn't binge-played my way into the aforementioned "End" screen 😏, nor immediately checked itch, for update info.
When someone recommended "Between Humanity" I went into it with an option mind, but never expected it to become a personal favourite 🙂🫡! Great job, I look forward to whatever comes next, cheers!
Sorry to leave you disappointed and thank you very much for the nice review! :D (I've actually fixed some spelling mistakes in the new 0.3.2 release, but very few!) Working on 0.4!
You're welcome, it's one of the best AVN's I've experienced, at worst 5th best all time. And as a trained 3d animator & writer I understand what's required on certain fronts. As for coding, I can't imagine how difficult it must be.
I'll likely be $ contributing to your cause in near the future, all because of a game recommendation made by a friendly random commenter:
insanity10k
I dunno of you give referrals, but they even defended Between Humanity after misinterpreting the poorly worded/executed sarcasm (my fault, now rectified) in my response on Eternum's page.
I'm excited to read whatever comes next in Between Humanity, cheers!
Hey! I did not expect to see you here! I was checking the page to see if there were any new preview images, haha! I know I said this before, but I'm still so glad you ended up liking Between Humanity! I gotta say, I feel you. I enjoyed chapter 3, but I felt disappointed, in a good way, at how quickly it ended too. But, on the bright side, this means that the excitement for chapter 4 is even higher now! I'm looking forward to it!
Thanks for mentioning me, man, it means a lot. I'm glad my words had an effect on how you enjoyed the game, that makes me happy. I try to be noticeable and influential in every space I go to online. Not enough people comment on things or show engagement these days, especially on YouTube. So, I try to be different from that, y'know? I'm glad it worked! Thanks for this, man! 💯🫰
LoL yeah hello again, I always leave a comment for a great game or avn that's kind enough to offer a free version when they clearly don't have to & give people the credit they deserve, when they speak up.
Thanks again for the great recommend!
I respect that, as I do that too. You're welcome again, man! I'm glad you enjoyed it! :D
Wow, thank you!!! I'm actually mostly good at the programming part and learned the rest by just doing it. Had a lot of "show, don't tell" mistakes in the first chapter, which I wasn't even aware of. :) And yes, the animations are getting better every update, at least imo. Would be happy to earn your support, every bit helps!
Congrats on evolving your animation skillsets, it's more artistic & less mathematical than coding and as such can be frustrating AF if it's not quite right. Love the free version and will likely contribute next month! Cheers & thanks again for making a great avn.
(Ps- As a former 3D animator, if you ever want free visual feedback or advice on pg/non-nude versions of your animations that aren't right, I'd be happy to help offer technical insight/advice & give back to a positive community.)
Thank you! It can indeed be frustrating if you try to get it to look good but it just won't. Happy to have you as a supporter! :D I'll keep that in mind, thanks again!
Saw this and went "eh, it's free, what the hell" and by the time I got to the end I was very surprised at how good this was. Pretty good characters, excellent renders/animation, and the slow-burn "hang on what's going on out there" story has got me quite interested.
misc. thoughts:
-Lucy is a precious little muffin and I want to squeeze her.
-I hope Naomi gets more depth to her character
-The chapter endings' counter for discovered clickables could use a "Here's how many were in this chapter" bit
-I'm excited to see where the worldbuilding continues to go!
Thank you very much! :) Totally agreeing on Lucy being a cute lil muffin. Hmm, the clickables, yeah, I could implement that but there is always the question on where to put it, I'm definitely not an UI expert.
Describing Lucy as a "precious little muffin" is not how I would have ever thought to describe her, but I 100% agree haha. I also like that you agree that the story being more slow paced instead of kicking off right from the beginning makes it more interesting. I agree with all of your comment! From one Between Humanity fan to another! :D
Just started the game and have to say I'm sending a lot of time just listening to the music. It's nice! The gameplay itself is cute, pretty good for a first try. Enjoying it so far, something to while away the hours when insomnia strikes as it often does while in pain. Resisting the urge to look up walkthroughs for now.
Thank you very much, glad that you like my music choice so far! :)
Just finished playing 0.3, I really like how you ended it , can't wait for to know more about the story!
Thank you very much, happy to hear! =D
I'd like more contents with Chloe
She'll have more scenes in future updates, I haven't forgotten about her!
That's good to know!
This reminds me Eternum, I like it!
Thank you very much! Happy to her that you like it! :)
Your welcome!
Yo, DebatingPanda! I'm 99% sure this is a Between Humanity reference that I caught in My Bully is My Lover! Check it out! 👇👇👇
It is indeed! She looks a bit off, but that's due to the difference between Niis and my style presets. :D
It's really cool of NiiChan to put this in My Bully is My Lover! Now I gotta search through Between Humanity to look for references to NiiChan's characters! I already found Annie from Eternum in Between Humanity. 😆
nope, that's a Harem Hotel reference. thats where teh character Moon is from, not My Bully My Milker
I can't tell if this is satire or not but I'm liking it 'cause it made me laugh anyway, lol.
Did you add more preview images to this page, or am I just experiencing the Mandela Effect?
Not yet, I wanted to add more from chapter 3 and replace some old ones after some time has passed since Chapter 3 release.
Oh okay, so I'm just tripping then, lol.
Played the first two chapter and I'm impressed. Looking forward to more content and hopefully more interaction in future chapters. Here is a link to my review: https://geekgasm.org/2025/04/28/between-humanity-review-chapters-1-2/
Thank you! :D you're missing out on the third chapter, though!
I'll get to it soon and update my review once I've played it....cheers!
Is there spanking in the current version?
Yes, but it's not included in a h-scene nor is it easy to reach and on top it's just one spank. Most of the relationships with the girls aren't developed enough to justify those kinks, yet.
When will more chapters of this great game come out?
Hey there thank you very much :)! I'm working on the next chapter, but it will take at least a couple of month.
Jumpscare sold me, burned through it in a single sitting, let's go!!!
Nice! Happy to hear :D
Please dont give up on this one. I have a feeling its going to get really good. And im tired of starting games that seam to get abandoned.
Thank you very much! :) I'm not planning to do so, don't worry!
Very happy to hear! Keep up the great work!
