Free, complete, and it ends on a cliffhanger we're not sorry about.

- Free, forever

Your in-game agency
Meet the roster.
In the game, you're the new manager at Second Star Entertainment — five women with enormous talent and zero fans. Your job is to fix the second half of that sentence.





The world
The city has people in it.
Second Star's five aren't the whole cast. Dimside is full of women with their own routes, their own shops, their own nights — four of them just moved in, drawn and written.

The game
Run the agency. Win the city.
A management sim wrapped around a romance — every week is a puzzle of time, money, and whose heart needs you.
The weekly planner
Seven days, five idols, one bank account. Book the gigs, schedule the training, and keep the landlord off the door — every slot you fill costs another you can't.
Plan · book · survive rent dayThe city board
Drag your girls across a living map of Lumen City — street sets, mall shows, sketchy late-night gigs. Each district pays in cash, fame, or trouble.
Dispatch · earn · get recognisedHearts and fame
Persona-style stats, affection routes, and a fame track that feeds their powers. Dates, gifts, late-night texts — the romance is the management.
Date · gift · fall in loveThe phone
An in-game phone that never shuts up — group chats, camera-roll photos, fan DMs and 2am confessions. The story finds you between the planning.
Text · scroll · get attachedThe system
StarRank — the class ladder.
Followers aren't a number. They're literal power. Climb the ladder and your idols stop doing party tricks and start changing the weather.
The promise
A city that runs on attention.
One idea holds the whole game together: in Lumen City, being loved is the power source. Everything you manage — the schedule, the rankings, the five women at the bottom of the ladder — sits inside it.
A world with rules
Followers aren't a vanity number here — they're the fuel a hero runs on, and StarRank is the ladder the whole city climbs. Your clients have enormous talent and nobody watching. That gap is the game.
Free, forever
The whole story goes public — nothing in the game is ever locked behind a paywall. Support just buys you early, and keeps the lights on.
Adults, written like it
Everyone's 21 or older, and it shows. Consent is spoken, on-screen, and freely given — every time. No coercion, ever. That's a promise, not a warning label.
