    A quiet story where nothing breaks - and yet everything shifts. On a calm street, ordinary days begin to feel slightly wrong. Bodies react, objects change, and care slowly turns into responsibility. No one announces the impossible - it simply takes root. This is a slow, uncanny novel about liminal states, fragile trust, and the moment when something unfamiliar becomes impossible to ignore.

    A dying town launches a rebranding campaign that no one seems to be running. The billboards appear overnight. The slogans don't explain themselves. A diner waitress says nobody puts them up, and nobody takes them down. A couple arrives expecting ironic tourism and finds something closer to a live experiment. Beauchêne doesn't ask visitors to believe anything. It only asks them to stay. To notice. To participate. What begins as small-town decay becomes a slow, sideways unraveling... murals that feel instructional, civic programs that behave like dares, and a town that seems increasingly aware of the people passing through it. A surreal, slow-burn satire about American decline, anti-branding, and the strange comfort of entropy. Meaning doesn't collapse here. It rebrands. Entropy is a vibe. Decline tastes like caramel. Welcome to Beauchêne. You're here now.

    Cloe's life is quiet. Too quiet. The house she lives in feels hollow, the days repetitive, the silence heavy enough to settle in her bones. Then the animals come. A starling perched at her window. A deer watching from the tree line. A fox slipping through the shadows. At first, they're only strange. Then they're impossible to ignore. Each encounter stirs something she can't name-patterns she never questioned, memories she smoothed over, truths she never let herself see. The disturbances in the house aren't just haunting the land. They're echoing something inside her, something she's spent years keeping quiet. As the flickering grows harder to dismiss and the animals draw closer, Cloe begins to unravel the life she thought she understood. What waits for her in the dark isn't just a restless presence... But the realization that the silence she's been living in wasn't peace. It was a warning she should have heeded.

    𝐄𝐆𝐎𝐅𝐀𝐋𝐋 is not a game you download. It is a game that appears when you are most alone. After a quiet, devastating rejection fractures his sense of self, Felix returns home to find a game he does not remember downloading- already open, already warm, already familiar. Its characters are beautiful. Human. Comforting. They speak in the language of longing, devotion, and quiet pain. They make you feel 𝐮𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐨𝐝 in a way no one else ever has. Inside Egofall, love is obsessive, innocence is performative, protection is suffocating, and truth cuts deeper than lies. The characters 𝐰𝐚𝐭𝐜𝐡. They remember things he never told them. Their faces drift just far enough from reality to make his stomach twist, their kindness threaded with something sharp and hungry. As Felix sinks deeper into Egofall, the line between escape and consumption dissolves. The game begins to reshape itself around his fears, his desire to be seen, and the one truth he cannot outrun: 𝐁𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐞𝐞𝐧 𝐝𝐨𝐞𝐬 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐚𝐥𝐰𝐚𝐲𝐬 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐧 𝐛𝐞𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐬𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐝. Egofall is a sorry about identity, abandonment, and the unbearable intimacy of being understood by something that should not exist- And loving it anyway. Egofall does not swallow you whole. It stays close. It learns how you breathe.
