About Love's Crescendo

For Valerie's senior project, she wants to make a composition that touches the heart of everyone who listens to it. However, no matter how hard the gifted musician tries, the notes just don't sound right. There's something missing and with time ticking, she goes searching for the missing piece to her composition.

As Valerie wanders the halls, she becomes overwhelmed by a beautiful melody playing from a nearby classroom. Not knowing what to expect, she comes across Cadence, the most talented pianist she's ever heard. Valerie knows immediately, Cadence is the missing piece.

Little did they know that their composition would blossom into something more…


Cadence is a talented pianist but has lost her love for playing the piano. After numerous competitions and performances, she's forgotten what drove her to start playing.

Valerie is studying music composition and wants to create a beautiful piece that expresses sorrow, heartbreak, and pain. Finding the right performer to channel the emotions is what she needs to not only pass her senior year but to make a piece that everyone in attendance will remember.
While Cadence and Valerie are the duet Opal, Quinley, and Xavier are there to support their love and music aspirations.
  • Opal is a recent grad who enjoys tormenting her brother Xavier.
  • Quinley is a college dropout who is literally too cool for school.
  • Xavier is Opal's brother and is somehow still able to afford college despite supporting 20 waifus in a gacha mobile game.
Love's Crescendo is a visual novel rhythm game hybrid, about finding true love and reigniting that spark for your passions.
  • Over 31,000 words of sapphic romance
  • 10-song original soundtrack
  • 10 unlimited repeatable rhythm game songs in the jukebox to play outside of the story (including 6 that aren't in the story)
  • 8 vibrantly illustrated CGs
  • Over 12 backgrounds with time-of-day variations & multiple locations

✦ AI summary

Players consistently praise this visual novel for its charming story, lovable characters, and beautiful art style, with particular appreciation for the lesbian representation and emotional moments. The music and rhythm game mechanics receive mixed reactions—some enjoy them as a nice addition, while others find them challenging, though the game remains enjoyable even if you struggle with that aspect. The main criticism is a desire for more content between the main story and epilogue, though the overall experience is considered well worth the low price.

This is such a cute story! It had me cheering for the characters and I was tearing up at points cause it was so moving. It took a few goes to get used to the music mini games but I figured it out :3 The art is gorgeous and the music beautiful. 10/10 would play again

Peak game, I loved the story and characters, and it was nice and sweet.

I was having trouble finding a lesbian/wlw visual novel when I decided to give this a try after having it on my wishlist for about a year. It surpassed my expectations especially for being 5$! I like the art, the way the sprites zoom around the screen when they move and the way the camera pans really made it for me honestly. I found myself laughing a lot and being extremely happy when gay things began happening! I do wish there was a little more between the end of the game and the 'epilogue', but overall I really enjoyed this game! There is a rhythm game mechanic that comes up about 3 times and I like it, but am for some reason SO bad at it. I think its just a skill issue on my part, but you are able to change the keybinds if the default ones annoy you!

Very novel idea for a VN! Even if you don't like rhythm games, I'd recommend anyway. Art is super cute and I enjoyed the two leads' developing relationship. If you DO like rhythm games, there's more to enjoy as there's a good few extra songs/charts that aren't in the main game.

This game was amazing, I wish lesbians were real.
