A Rebound From MARS! is a linear furry visual novel featuring themes of sci-fi, drama, and MY WOLF. Follow dragon Xander Kamsky as he helps an alien canine get back home after the latter crash lands in a scenic Ozark town.



XANDER KEPT SMILING.

The smell of roses and the bright lights were giving him a headache. His jaw ached, and sweat beaded on his brow.

His sister's seat sat empty. She had stormed out twenty minutes ago to search for the otter. 

His friends were texting. They offered reassuring glances, but they could hardly disguise the embarrassment on their faces.

The otter's mother stared at the phone in her hands. She had already called eight times, but she huffed and dialed the number again.

The officiant was tapping his foot and looking at his watch. There was a fee if he stayed too much longer.

Xander wanted to do something, but he didn't know what. So he continued to stand there.  

And he smiled wider.



This SFW FVN was created for MAY WOLF Jam 2024, if that wasn't already obvious enough from the huge goddamn title stretching across half of your PC screen.

A MASSIVE thank you to all the people that made this Jam possible:

Artists - RonChokySikyu   ← Check these peeps out NOW!

Organizers - WagleUnagi & Administrative Team

All my fellow Jammers that submitted some great stuff!

And to players like you. Thank you! <3

I forgot to do this weeks ago but here is the Superlative Voting Form for anyone that is interested: https://forms.gle/gwZW4U4Dvgae4RWs8

Superlative Voting ends when the Jam Voting Ends.

Very novel concept with Wesley learning to navigate the world. Overall, I thought it was a very sweet (although perhaps a victim of the word constraints) submission to the jam.  I know you worked very hard on it and this is possibly the longest submission, but I still would have loved to see the ending fleshed out a little more. Those paw pads are so boopable as well, and I loved the little stargazing VFX. Thank you for the enjoyable read!

See you, space potato.
