In 2007, Yoran Heling, better known as Yorhel, started The Visual Novel Database after finding insufficient information about Ever 17: The Out of Infinity online. It has since grown into one of the most comprehensive, longest-running resources of gaming history. Archiving a genre that is simultaneously niche while extremely influential across the industry. As rumors began to swirl, site moderators confirmed that Heling passed away on March 17th.
