A word from the creator

Hi, I’m n500, a solo developer with a strong background in psychology. I use my understanding of human needs and emotions to create games that focus on meaningful experiences, offering a refreshing alternative to typical industry offerings.

While I’m committed to delivering quality over quantity, there’s a limit to what I can achieve on my own. Your support enables me to commission more artwork from the 2D artist each month, upgrade our tools, purchase new software licenses, and bring exciting new content to life—all while maintaining the quality and creativity that make The Martin Experiment truly special.

Welcome to The Martin Experiment

A comedy visual novel made for grown-ups!


You play as Martin, a socially awkward pessimist who’s hit rock bottom and is determined to turn his life around. However, his plans take an unexpected twist when a mysterious woman shows up at his door.

Guide Martin through a journey filled with intense choices and sensual encounters. As you make decisions, he’ll confront insecurities, loneliness, and social anxiety, all while encountering unpredictable characters who push him to his limits—or lead him to his death. Will you help him find hope, or let his mind spiral further into madness?


The Martin Experiment offers a deep, memorable experience that goes beyond typical visual novels. Your choices can lead Martin toward growth and resilience—or into deeper chaos. Join this suspenseful, humorous, and thought-provoking journey, and see where your decisions take him.

Very very good indeed

Tem previsão de lançar uma versão para Mac?

Quero muito lançar para Mac, mas custa muito caro ter aquela licença para desenvolvedores (parece que custa mais de 500 reais por ano!). O projeto precisa ter um pouco mais de retorno financeiro para que eu consiga pagar por essa licença (e também para usar um Mac), aí sim teremos versões para Mac e iOS.

Really great visual and narrative style. I will wait for some major update.

(+1)

how do you get all 4 endings?

(+1)

Ending #1 - Choose to put on some clothes before answering the woman at the door.

Ending #2 - Lock the front door and take a shower.

Ending #3 - Take a shower without locking the door.

Ending #4 - Wash yourself using the sink, brush your teeth, lock all the doors, and keep interacting with the woman on the floor.

thank you

This has so much personality. Wow.

I'm glad you liked it! :D

Are there only 2 endings or is there something else, because I only got 2 endings

Which endings did you get?

The woman has been kidnapped, and the young woman with her dog,and the main character are chased by the dog

Played through it and I enjoyed the art and the humor alot, I will suggest after at most 1 playthrough allow us to skip through the story though

I avoided playing through more than one run only because I couldn't skip through the parts I wanted to skip through

I like this idea! Can you describe how would you like to skip through the story? I’ll try to make that happen. :D

  • In the meantime, we currently have a skip button that fast-forwards every seen dialogue and stops only when the player needs to make a choice to proceed. We also have a save/load system with automatic saves (seen on the preferences screen). I know it's not like the feature you want (now I want it too), but it could make things easier to avoid already seen content.

(+1)

Well the normal fast forward would be nice, but once you restart I was suggesting you can always fast forward 

your idea of auto saves would also be great

(+1)

cara, qual o quarto final? so encontrei o do cachorro, morte pos banho e a mulher sequestrada. Muito bom jogo, ansioso por mais

A mulher pode ser sequestrada em duas ocasiões. Primeiro, quando Martin recebe a opção de colocar roupas antes de atender a porta, e depois, caso ele tome banho com a porta da frente destrancada.

This game is cleeeaaaan, really love how dynamic it feels out of a lot of visual novels. A lot of heart and attention has been put into each scene and it's hilarious! Keep it up :D

I'm glad you liked it! :D

Loving the update and art direction! Looking forward to more! 

(+1)

OMG Thank you for playing! I will add some improvements to the interface and navigation system based on what I learned watching the things you tried to do during the gameplay. Can I put your video in the description of this page?

(+2)

I love this game! I'm glad it's still moving forward, and you can absolutely use this video and share it where ever you like. 

(+1)

Awesome. :D

How can I reach you? I can't find a way to send DMs via Itch. Do you have a Discord server?

Yes I do! I think you can just find me as Scaveng3r.

(+1)

Great Game!

Keep up the good work!

Como posso trancar a porta? As únicas opções que me são mostradas são olhar para fora e voltar.

(1 edit)

Só aparece opção de trancar a porta se você estiver com a chave certa. A chave que você achou pode ser para a outra porta

(+1)

não acho a chave da porta principal alguem sabe onde fica 

Você tem que olhar na porta dos fundos

(+2)

How can I lock the door? I got the key but I can't lock the door help

(+1)

You just have to click on the corresponding door and the options will appear on the screen.

Didn't work for me. The only options I get are to look outside or return.

Then you don’t have the right key for this door yet. Keep looking! :D

(+1)

I have one key and there seems to be only one door to lock. How many keys are there?

There are three doors in the laundry room. You can hold and drag the screen to search for clickable areas.

o jogo tá massa, e também tá leve, rodou tranquilinho na minha torradeira, mas a ansiedade pra outra versão vai me matar

Fico feliz que tenha gostado. Nós vamos tentar melhorar nossa maneira de conduzir o projeto para que ele fique pronto mais rapidamente. 4 anos de espera entre uma versão e outra realmente foi tempo de mais!

(+1)

It's a good game

(+1)

I'm glad you liked it :D

(+1)

Onde fica a porta dos fundos pelo amor de Deus? Kkkkkkk

fica na lavanderia da casa

(+2)

Esses foi um dos primeiros jogos que eu achei quando comecei a joga esse tipo de jogo fico feliz que o projeto não tenha morrido

Muito obrigado pelo apoio! Continue nos acompanhando, temos muito a entregar ainda.

Boa! Avisei na comunidade do canal e devo jogar amanhã. Sucesso amigo!

Mal posso esperar por isso!
