Übernimm die Rolle von Nanashi, einem einsamen, agoraphobischen Jungen, der ein mysteriöses Mädchen trifft und sich hinauswagt, um Freunde zu finden - in einer Welt, die von Computerprogrammen regiert wird. Seltsame Ereignisse ereignen sich in der Stadt, während du erkundest, Infos von den Bewohnern sammelst und daraus Gespräche aufbaust, die die Story vorantreiben. Im Detective Part und Conversation Part des Story Mode setzt du Themen zusammen, um voranzukommen, und managst dabei deine HP, um Game Over zu vermeiden.
Nach dem Abschluss des Story Mode schaltest du den Free Mode frei - perfekt fĂĽr entspannte Chats mit den Stadtbewohnern, das Aufbauen von Freundschaften und Mini-Games. Dieses Indie Casual Adventure verbindet Side-Scrolling-Exploration mit Detektiv-Elementen und Voice Acting. Fans von dialoggetriebenen Mysteries und sozialen Interaktionen in einer nahen Zukunft Japans kommen hier voll auf ihre Kosten.
Welcome to 1bitHeart―the latest title from Alicemare and LiEat developer △○□× (Miwashiba). In this unique and endearing adventure game, take on the role of Nanashi, a lonely, agoraphobic boy, as you solve a slew of mysteries around town while also making friends.
This is the story of a world in which pretty much everything is controlled and watched over by computer programs.
One day, Nanashi―a young boy who has been cooped up in his room―meets a mysterious girl.
“Let’s make some friends.”
“OK!”
Nanashi accepts the young girl’s sudden invitation without giving it much thought.
At that very moment, some very strange things begin to occur in town...
Detective Part (Story Mode)
Gather information and topics by exploring the town and speaking with people to progress through the story.
Conversation Part (Story Mode)
Use the topics and info you’ve gathered to piece together conversations while progressing through the story. (The game ends when your HP reaches 0.)
Free Mode (After clearing Story Mode)
Talk and mingle with the residents of the town, make friends, and play mini games in Free Mode.
*This title was originally a free game, but the Steam version includes specially added events, etc.
This was the 3rd game I made, where I first experimented with a side-scrolling system, voice over and detective elements.
I probably spent the most time working on these 3 things, including revisions.
When designing the town, I had foreign cartoons in mind and was aiming more towards a foreign audience than a Japanese one.
However, the game is set in Japan of the near future and the character design is aimed more towards the Japanese aesthetic.
I took advantage of the fact the game is set in Japan to make some cultural references here and there.
"An adventure game where you make friends". Not a typical tag-line, but if there is any aspect that takes your fancy I hope you will play my game!
