Controls and Things to Know

• Use W/A/S/D or arrow keys to move in the top-down shooter view
• Click to swing sword in the top-down shooter view or move forward in the visual novel view.
• Don't worry about dying during the top-down segments. The story will still continue.
• (as a matter of fact, you might want to die deliberately to see more parts of the story!)
• Both of the heroines / romantic interests also have their own mini-routes and scenes.

The Game

This game is intended to be a fusion of a dating-sim / visual novel and a top-down shooter in the style of Hotline Miami.

Essentially, you play as a voice within the head of a typical VN main character.

To sum it up in terms of more well-known things: imagine Doki Doki Literature Club + Hotline Miami + Inside Out (or Everyone Is John)

Unfortunately, as a voice within Kei (the main character)'s head, you're not alone, and even worse the other voices are willing to use force to take control of our poor MC.

But maybe, if you can keep control, you can help the main character find love...

...or you can just let the others take control and see what hilarious and/or horrifying antics they get up to while in control.

Details

I'll admit, I kinda...sorta... ran out of time at the end.

But I have 90% of the game, at least. And a good chunk of what I have is good. So I'm proud of that.

I'll be honest, there are probably a bunch of game-breaking bugs in this game. I'll squash em as I find em, and I'll try to keep the changelog to a minimum:

Bugfixes

  • fix Voices still having collision when dead
