If My Heart Had Wings

SimulatorAdventureVisual Novel
A visual novel that trades in high-stakes drama for a low-key, slice-of-life experience, If My Heart Had Wings centers on the revitalization of a gliding club. Players navigate a branching narrative, making choices that impact relationships with a cast of charming characters and determine the fate of the club. Its appeal lies in the gentle pacing, the detailed depiction of its setting, and the way it prioritizes character development over sensational plot twists, offering a relaxing and emotionally resonant journey for those who enjoy a slower pace.

About If My Heart Had Wings

View Game Details
The story of the game is set in Kazegaura, a suburb in Japan, just outside of Tokyo. The main characters in this story are students at the “Keifu Academy”, a technical school, also known as a “specialized vocational high school”. The protagonist of the game, Aoi Minase, is a young boy who lost his dream in a bicycle racing accident and subsequently returns to his hometown. There, he meets Kotori Habane, a young girl stuck with a wheelchair with a flat tire, on a hill with windmills. They then spot large, white wings traversing the sky over the hills- a glider. Both had yet to realize that everything would begin from this. Working together with Aoi’s childhood friend Ageha Himegi, they begin rebuilding the Soaring Club, which was just about to be disbanded. In order to realise the dream everyone has as a child- “I want to soar up to the great sky and fly”, these beginners take hold of their passion, overcoming failures and obstacles from the school to put their all into building a glider. They strive to fly through the “morning glory”, a special weather phenomenon that enables a special type of roll-shaped cloud that appears in the morning when the conditions are just right.
