A Ticklish Rescue is a short Visual Novel me and my artist friend made with Ren'Py as a small project we thought about doing!

The story follows a rescue team composed by a Meowth and Quagsire, both with their flaws and strenghts, who have to traverse a mysterious cave where two rookies suddenly went missing in.

The rescue mission takes unexpected turns each floor they descend, with different 'hostile' Pokémon that want nothing but turn them into their toys. When the stakes are high and the situation gets hectic, will you choose to take advantage of it or stick to your principals and do the right thing? 

What to expect:

  • Animated Tickle Scenarios: High-stakes encounters featuring  little animated scenes with moving sprites to bring some humor to the story.
  • Mischievous Captors: Face off against the three different Pokémon with their own unique abilities and tactics.
  • Branching Paths: Your choices matter. Unlock different decisions and scenarios depending on how you handle each situation. 
  • Some decisions may look harmless but will have consequences later...
  • Multiple Endings: Discover the various ways the story can conclude, including a special secret ending depending on your past choices.
  • Nostalgic Presentation: Experience the story with a classic PMD-inspired aesthetic and soundtrack.
  • Cross-Platform Play: Enjoy the full experience directly in your browser or download the dedicated Android build.
