I wish to be like Ichiban when I grow up

A Certified Hood Tragedy 🔥🔥

I played it to feel weirded out and the game sure delivered that to me but I don't think I will remember this for a long time. The game title is very cool though "The Static Speaks My Name"

The true ending got me so fucking badly as a kid. The feeling of pure hopelessness and no happy ending was too much for my 13 years old-self. Damn it! That girl deserves so so much better.

2009

This is like a mix of Yume Nikki with Silent Hill 3 and Lain. The way you go to the dream world(virtual reality?) through the computer and not sleeping on the bed is such a cool concept. The music is also very atmospheric and well-made.

.flow is also a lot edgier than the original game with body horror and such which I didn't mind because I think it fits in this game and I love edgy stuff sometimes.

Cute and short game. I stumbled upon this when searching for Android vns for time pass but it was surprisingly very good.

It explores topics and issues faced by people in real life. I am not a trans person but I can understand Haru's feelings of not fitting in. I recommend reading it if you have some time.

Not a fan of this game but I respect it for inspiring other rpg horror games that I love like Ib and Witch's House.

My favourite Kojimbo's work. Would sell my left naut for this game and Snatcher to get a remake or at least a good port in modern consoles and pc.

Kind of a controversial opinion but I loved Yui's route. Not saying it was some Koe no Katachi tier (not even close) but as an H-game that was released in the 2000s, I like it and made Yui redeemable to me even though being a horrible person.

Was not a fan of returning characters another stories (except Hayami). Would have given it 4 stars if it had a better Hamaji route that also includes Yaoi romance. Fuck Maki's route btw! Never liked her and she doesn't deserve Hamaji.

Holy shit Konami's route was such a rollercoaster. Instead of going "hehe weird but whatever pal" relationship, the route takes forbidden relationships very seriously. Everything that happens in this route just clears almost all the boxes that could happen if someone discovers that type of relationship. With everything that happened in the route and how it ended, all I could say was "Hope things go well for them in future" before I closed the game & took a shower. Reminds me a lot of Koi Kaze and yns.

Other than the Konami route, the music is amazing and perfectly captures the dreamy high school romance vibes. I love the character art (Tsubasa Izumi the Great who is also well responsible for 9-nine series). Loved Yuuri but her route is eh. Mio route was ok and I only did it because I felt bad for her in the Yuuri route.

Someone described this game as "White Girl Boondocks" which is actually very accurate.

I want to marry this game if I could. 10/10 Masterpiece!!

I wrote a page of level warp passwords for this game like those GTA cheat codes. Good memories.

Underrated RPG horror game. That paper thingy on the field was such a nightmare fuel.
