Overview
Gloom and Doom is a visual novel throwback to 90s slacker comedy movies with a supernatural twist.

On a journey filled with demons, angels, bullies and annoying customers, can the unlikely duo find redemption and prevent the end of the world?
This interactive visual novel features a cast of odd characters and a 90s superhero comic book style that brings a captivating story to the player, leading the characters to either salvation or destruction.
Will you save the girl or save the world?
