Final Product: Satin & Snow
Cover
The 16:9 key-art cover: Xie Yanqiu, 22, barefoot on a snow-covered jetty at midnight in a white lace-collared blouse, looking back over one shoulder. A silver moon, mist over the frozen lake, a white house with amber windows across the ice, and a single white lily on the snow in the foreground. Painted for this story with GPT Image 2 in the world’s soft ethereal semi-realistic painterly direction.
Gameplay
Actual gameplay, the opening beat on the official share page: the glass studio by the frozen lake, the fresh white lily on the step, the boy waiting on the jetty, and Sister Qiao’s warning at the teahouse — scene art on the left, live narration on the right, and a message box waiting for your first move.
Gameplay
Actual gameplay, the evening knock: snow thickens over the lake, and Xie Yanqiu stands at the studio door with a thermos — “I heard you need a subject. I have been one my whole life, but never for someone who photographs people instead of paintings.” The scene art and card shift to warm firelight as the story turns indoors.
Gameplay
Actual gameplay, the teahouse on the main lane: Sister Qiao pours oolong and gives the town’s whole verdict in one line — “The old master’s grandson. Keep your distance, girl. That one is not like other boys, and the old man does not share what is his.” Steam, bamboo baskets and snow at the window.
Satin & Snow is a playable winter romance — an age-gap otome written and directed live by AI, running in your browser with nothing to install.
You are a 28-year-old portrait photographer who rented a glass-walled studio on a frozen lake to get away from the city, the wedding shoots, and the life that kept sending flowers you did not want. On the first morning there is a white lily on the step: fresh, cut, expensive, impossible in a lakeside town in winter. Out on the ice, a boy is standing on the jetty in a shirt too thin for the cold. He does not wave. He does not shiver. He has been waiting for you to open the door.
His name is Xie Yanqiu. He is twenty-two, the old master’s grandson, and the town’s most watched and least known person. You are twenty-eight, and the age gap is the first thing you say out loud — and the only thing he never argues with. Around you: Sister Qiao, who knows every secret in town and gives them away one cup of oolong at a time; a white house across the lake whose amber windows seem to watch the studio; and an ex whose flowers arrive the same week as the lilies. Underneath the romance run two investigable threads — Who has been sending the white lilies? and What does the old master want from the studio? — each with clues, actions, discoveries and consequences.

Game Features
- Live LLM Narrative Direction — nothing here is a fixed script. A deepseek-v4-flash agent reads your action, keeps Xie Yanqiu in his quiet, exact voice, and writes the next beat, the subtext and the suggested moves as you play. The same agent built the premise, the frozen-lake opening, the relationship graph, the two investigable threads and the town’s social weather from a single world prompt.
- One Man, One Winter, One Rule — Xie is not a cast of six. He is one person, written precisely: twenty-two, a pianist’s hands, a grandson’s duty, and a patience that reads as stillness until it doesn’t. He never argues with the age gap. He simply keeps showing up — at the jetty, at the studio door, at the edge of every scene — until you have to decide what you actually want.
- Answer In Your Own Words — Or Tap A Move — type any action into the box (“Ask him where the lilies come from”, “Tell him to come inside before he freezes”, “Kiss him before you change your mind”), or pick one of the AI’s suggested moves. Every reply shifts the temperature of the room and the town’s opinion of you.
- Two Investigable Threads — <em>Who has been sending the white lilies?</em> follows the impossible flowers, the heated greenhouse behind the old house, Xie’s dawn walks and the florist who never sold them. <em>What does the old master want from the studio?</em> follows a lease that is a third of what it should be, a sealed letter in the desk, a dying man’s last arrangement and the question of what happens when winter ends.
- A Cast That Remembers You — the relationship graph tracks obsession, quiet devotion, unease, duty, unfinished business and warning between you and the people around you. The story keeps your promises, your refusals and your mercies. Come back tomorrow and the lake is still frozen, the lilies are still arriving, and Xie is still waiting.
- Painted Sprites, Frozen-Lake Scenes, Zero Install — six character sprites were cut out with <span class="ml-model-badge">birefnet-general</span> into true transparent PNGs, so Xie stands cleanly over the studio, the library and the jetty. Four painted scene backgrounds, one 16:9 key-art cover, free to start, mobile-first, nothing to download.
Character Sprites
Sprite
Xie Yanqiu — neutral. A full-body transparent PNG cut with BiRefNet: cream cardigan over a loose white shirt, charcoal trousers, dark leather shoes, one small silver ring. The stillness of someone who listens before he speaks.
Sprite
Warm — the almost-smile that reaches the eyes before the mouth. The version of him that has decided you are worth the risk, even if he would never say it first.
Sprite
Tense — guarded shoulders, jaw set, wanting treated as a weakness he refuses to show. The old master’s house does not teach its boys to ask for things.
Sprite
Quiet — the version of him that has decided not to fill the silence. Hands still, eyes down, listening to whatever you are about to admit.
Sprite
The white-lace portrait: short tousled dark-grey hair, pale skin with a faint flush at the cheekbones, large gentle dark eyes, a lace-collared blouse with a satin bow and a thin silver chain. Painted on a black matte and cut out with BiRefNet into a true transparent PNG.
Sprite
The firelight portrait: the lace blouse slipped off one shoulder, a loose satin bow at his throat, warm amber rim light against deep shadow. Quiet, certain, and entirely too composed for twenty-two — transparent PNG.
Production Process Breakdown
Stage 1: World & Winter Palettedeepseek-v4-flash
The production began inside the “Handsome Men in the Galaxy” studio, then the story set its own winter palette: soft ethereal semi-realistic painterly, cool white-and-grey, muted and misty, one warm amber accent from the house across the lake. The premise was fixed in a single line — a photographer, a frozen lake, the old master’s grandson, and an age gap neither of them can argue away.

Stage 2: Roleplay & Story Draftingdeepseek-v4-flash
From that line the agent wrote the playable spine: the default opening (the white lily on the step, the boy on the jetty, Sister Qiao’s warning), a relationship graph of six distinct pressures, five locations — the Glass Studio, the Jetty, Sister Qiao’s Teahouse, the Old Master’s House and the Frozen Lake — three quick-start hooks and two investigable threads with clues, actions, discoveries, reveals and consequences.

Stage 3: Cast Portraitsgpt-image-2
A full-body expression set — neutral, warm, tense, quiet — and two close portraits were painted with GPT Image 2, plus the first-morning jetty figure. Each kept the same face, hair and costume language so he reads as one person across every scene: cream cardigan and charcoal trousers for the house, white lace for the lake.

Stage 4: Scene Art & Key Visualgpt-image-2
GPT Image 2 painted the frozen lake at midnight for the 16:9 key-art cover, the glass studio at first light, the old master’s library at night and Sister Qiao’s teahouse in the snow. A 3:4 portrait crop of the cover became the scene image the roleplay shell shows beside the opening narration.

Stage 5: Transparent Cut-Outbirefnet-general
Every expression, portrait and the full-body jetty figure were background-removed with BiRefNet into true RGBA PNGs — no white box, no matte edge, no haloing — so Xie composites cleanly over the studio, the library, the teahouse or the ice.

Scene Backgrounds
BG
The jetty at midnight: a frozen lake under a low silver moon, mist drifting over cracked ice, a snow-covered wooden jetty, a white house with warm amber windows across the water, and a single white lily on the snow. The original scene art that also became the story’s first cover.
BG
The first morning: the view from the glass studio door — a white lily on the step, wet footprints in the frost, the jetty running out onto the flat white lake, pines and a white house under low mist. The exact image the opening narration describes.
BG
The glass studio: frosted French doors onto the ice, a daybed with ivory linen and a fur throw, a black wood stove, a desk with a vintage film camera and contact sheets, and a white lily in a glass vase. Cool morning light with one warm lamp — the room where the evening knock happens.
BG
The old master’s library at night: dark walnut shelves, a low amber fire, two worn leather armchairs, a chess table, a grand piano in the corner and tall windows onto moonlit snow. The room where the letters, the inheritance and the truth about the lilies come out.
