An experimental, minimalist retro visual novel inspired by the PC-98. Show the transfer student Yuu around the school and become a source of support for her, in a short story built around a single consequential choice.

Key features

PC-98 aesthetic, faithfully done

Pixel art presented at a strict 320×240 resolution with a soundtrack created using FM synthesis, replicating the look and sound of late-80s Japanese PC games.

Short and deliberate

A 10 to 15 minute playtime designed to be replayed and reconsidered rather than completed once.

A world with a hidden layer

The game works on its own, but the more you learn about the world it sits in, the closer you get to its actual truth.
