  SYNOPSIS

  In the year 5066, Danya and his alien friend Juniper are manning The Ameretat, a humble spaceship that transports goods across the Milky Way.

  After a troubled transport gig that left their beloved ship in need of repair and their bank account empty, the team is offered a generous deal they cannot refuse: transporting a beautiful and mysterious alien who calls himself Brahve.

  Sometimes at night, Danya hears strange things from Brahve’s room.

  Élisabeth is a lesbian in an Incompatible Orientation marriage, while Honorade is in full The Mourning After towards her late husband, with whom she shared a taste for bondage, hinting at her being fine with both sexes.

• Ascension (2021): Escort is nonbinary, and the other two main characters are heavily implied to be transgender.
• BAD END THEATER: The Maiden and the Overlord, who are both women, have clear feelings for each other if allowed to interact, and the Omega Ending reveals that they're based on TRAGEDY and the player, respectively, two separated sapphics.
  

  Pair that with some the occasional snarky piece of dialogue and all of it comes together to make a fun and refreshing experience.

  5 Ace In Space

  Cost	Time	Platforms
  $6.99	1.5 Hours	Windows, MacOS

  Ace in Space is a visual novel and dating sim game that explores the realities of asexuality and nonbinary identity.

  What could he be hiding in there? This game features an extensive amount of customization options, allowing you to craft your perfect character, or to simply craft yourself. As he puts it, he's not into people romantically or sexually, just "friendically". More specifically:

  • The Freshman: Kaitlyn develops a crush on the main character and comes out to her parents as a lesbian in Book 2.

    All but one of the Old Gods is queer; two of the female Old Gods were said to be deeply in love with each other (until one banished the other for messing with her plans), another two of them are non-binary lovers (with one of them using ze/zir pronouns, marking the first time in Choices history that a character uses neopronouns), and a fifth God is a Manly Gay god of combat.

    The censored version and later adaptations, however, downplay references to her sexuality, rendering her Ambiguously Bi there.

  • First Kiss at a Spooky Soiree: The protagonist Marzipan is panromantic, and there are four girls and four boys she can kiss in the game's Multiple Endings.
  • The Hayseed Knight: Although the main character Ader is straight, it's possible for him to enter a polyamorous relationship with Sep, who's pansexual, and Eina, a trans woman.

    You play as Adrian Clarke and are given the chance to live on a distant planet, T-3R4, with kindhearted robots.
