You're daydreaming about putting your blorbo in situations... when he seemingly comes to life and (accidentally)  hits you with a soccer ball!!! ⚽⚽⚽⚽

...Is it the possible-concussion talking or is he kinda into you too? 😳

Short, Sweet, & Pretty Stupid, Citrus! K.O. is a silly micro visual novel where your "favourite character" assesses you to make sure your head's OK.

 Features

  • <1k words
  • 4 questions
  • Cheesy Flirting
  • Obscure (or Niche?) Tumblr-humor References
  • A personal cognitive assessment from the one and only "Natsu" from "Shounen!"

Choose obviously wrong answers! Flirt with your assailant! Change your name 5+ times!!! Citrus! K.O. loops so that you can get all the dialogue in one-sitting, but it's also short enough to get bonked in the head play again and again. 


Developed by ZacBytesGames 

Citrus K.O.! was solo-developed by Zacarias (ZacBytesGames) in ~5 days for Only One of Any Asset (O2A2) Visual Novel Jam 2026. The jam imposes strict asset restrictions and 1k word limit to develop a VN in 10 days (or 5 if you're like me and didn't decide to participate until July 15!)

This micro visual novel was made for fun and while on break from Blue Storm in Spring. It helped me practice using conditionals, input fields, etc. in Ren'Py!
