A winter encounter
Set against the backdrop of college life, the protagonist revisits past events in limited settings like dormitories and parks, while also keeping in touch with friends far away. Old romances, new encounters, and lingering attachments intertwine, bringing the once peaceful daily life back to the question of "how to face loss."
A single-threaded short story
The game uses a continuous narrative without options or character branches, with the emotional storyline unfolding through switching between memories and reality. The 2018 version uses dynamic character illustrations and provides Chinese voice acting. It is relatively short, with character relationships advancing by contrasting past and present, and does not include romance development or numerical training systems.
Common Worldview (including setting reveals)
In the interview, the CEO explained that 'Xuehua', 'Violet Li', and 'Akain PLUS' belong to the same group of 'inner world' stories. Multiple parallel planes partially overlap during fusion, allowing two people who originally couldn't meet to meet; "Xuehua" involves two of these planes. This explanation links the Breaking of the Short Story to the larger world setting of the series.
