Oniray · first-person visual novel · 20 endings
The False Sun is a first-person, choice-driven visual novel by Oniray about returning to a grandfather’s farm and meeting Silas, a childhood friend the protagonist cannot clearly remember. Start here for the creator, format, official source, and play loop; use the focused guides for endings, Silas gallery searches, and the road pathway.
Oniray is credited for story, art, code, and direction. The game is made with Ren’Py, is distributed officially on itch.io for Windows, macOS, Linux, and Android, and has 20 possible endings shaped by player choices.
Use the five steps for a first playthrough or a controlled ending run. Detailed route instructions stay on the focused guide pages.
Most play time is spent reading first-person illustrated scenes. Pause when dialogue, a relationship response, or an interactive prompt appears.
Player action: On a first run, choose naturally. On a completion run, check the target route before confirming the choice.
A visual novel save preserves the entire earlier route profile, including choices that may not show an immediate result.
Player action: Use a clean checkpoint before farm work, swimming, post-puzzle dialogue, and late timing sequences.
The False Sun includes several mini-games and interactive scenes in addition to dialogue. Public routes connect farm work, knife timing, and navigation to selected endings.
Player action: Treat perfect, skipped, failed, and exact-pattern attempts as separate route profiles.
The official page lists a memory gallery and an ending gallery with 20 possible endings. A completed playthrough may unlock only part of that content.
Player action: Confirm the gallery row before overwriting the save used to reach it.
When the target ending fails, the problem may be an earlier relationship, farm, pier, or water condition rather than the final response.
Player action: Reload the earliest uncertain save and change one condition instead of replaying every later choice.
Oniray is the creator credited on the official itch.io listing for story, art, code, and direction. The same official page identifies the game as a visual novel made with Ren’Py.
Use Oniray’s itch.io listing as the source of truth for current files, creator updates, and warnings. Fan guides are useful for route organization, but they are not the release authority.
The official description frames the game around a summer in a small village that begins warm and familiar before becoming increasingly unsettling. The protagonist returns to their grandfather’s farm with incomplete memories, while Silas remembers a shared childhood the protagonist cannot clearly recall.
It is played from a first-person perspective and mixes illustrated dialogue choices with several mini-games and interactive scenes. The official listing also flags mature themes, physical and emotional violence, disturbing themes, flashing visuals, and sudden or loud sounds.
The official release is on Oniray’s itch.io page. The current public listing offers Windows/Linux, macOS, and Android builds and uses itch.io’s free/name-your-own-price model with optional support for the developer.
Use the dedicated itch.io page when you need to verify the official URL or current files. Use the download guide only for choosing the correct platform; this wiki does not mirror the game files.
Oniray’s official page says choices shape the protagonist’s relationship with Silas and determine the ending. There are 20 possible endings, plus a Memory Gallery and Ending Gallery that make completion visible after a run.
When you want a different outcome, reload before the earliest route condition that needs to change. If you already know the ending name or missing gallery row, use the all-endings table; if you only know where you are in the story, use the walkthrough.
The phrase `visual novel The False Sun Silas gallery` has its own strong search demand. Current Google results for that task are dominated by visual/CG/pics and fan-content pages rather than general visual-novel explanations.
Use the Silas hub for that question. It explains the difference between searchers’ `Silas gallery` wording and the official game’s Memory Gallery / Ending Gallery without rehosting game or fan assets.
The road-pathway wording has its own search demand and belongs on the road guide, where path choices can be handled without duplicating a general game overview. Ending-guide searches likewise belong on the main 20-ending page.
Keeping these tasks separate gives this page one clear job: explain the visual novel and help a new player choose the correct next guide.
Use the video to see the reading-first presentation and interactive scenes. For a specific ending, route, or gallery task, use the focused written guide instead of copying a full playthrough.
