​Vanilla Brulee​ & The Rose Bandit

In Vanilla Brûlée & The Rose Bandit, you play as a defiant Omega dancer navigating the neon-soaked underworld of Cabaret Noir, where status is currency and desire is a weapon. After a botched encounter with a relentless admirer—who thrives on your rejection—you’re thrust into a dangerous game of cat-and-mouse. Is this enigmatic stalker a lovestruck fool, a vengeful rival, or the key to unmasking a syndicate trafficking Omegas? To survive, you’ll blur your own rules, dancing closer to the edge of scandal while dodging traps set by gang lords, jealous performers, and your own unraveling pride.

Gameplay:

Improvised Seduction – Master rhythm-based dance mini-games to earn tips and respect, but fend off overzealous patrons with quick-time rejections that escalate in absurdity (e.g., flipping tables, fake fainting).

Shadow Pursuit – Trace the Rose Bandit’s clues through the city’s underworld, balancing daytime sleuthing (hacking security cams, bribing informants) with nighttime performances that drain your stamina.

Code-Switch Combat – Adapt dialogue tactics mid-conversation: charm Alphas with wit, intimidrate Betas with calculated coldness, or lean into Omega stereotypes to manipulate enemies—each choice alters how factions perceive your “value.”

Features:

Masochist Meter – The Bandit’s obsession grows stronger the harder you reject them, unlocking risky perks like blackmail leverage or explosive confrontations that rewrite the story’s finale.

Fleeting Allure – Your scent (a dynamic stat) affects NPC behavior: too potent, and you attract dangerous attention; too muted, and you lose income. Customize perfumes to manipulate outcomes.

Cabaret Sandbox – Explore a seedy open-world district where every shop, alley, and VIP room holds secrets—snoop in dressing rooms for gossip, or graffiti rival venues to sabotage their reputations.

Tips:

Rejection Artistry – Sometimes “losing” a dance mini-game on purpose lulls predators into complacency, giving you time to pocket incriminating evidence.

Scent Economy – Trade rare perfume ingredients with street chemists to craft pheromone bombs—temporarily incapacitate foes or trigger chaotic distractions.

Bandit’s Breadcrumbs – Keep rejected gifts (roses, poisoned chocolates); later, reassemble them into maps or tools. Nothing in this city is just a token.
