Features, via CAVYHOUSE:
The novel art style. The Japanese-flavored character design and minimalist, non-photorealistic scenes are perfectly harmonized. The most significant thing is the texture expression sticky to the field of view, which brings the illusion of blending 2D and 3D worlds.
Exploitation of a new genre, called VR Visual Novel (VR-VN), by merging this unique art style with VR technology. Visual Novel (VN) is a game genre with primary roots in Japan. You can enjoy the story at your own pace as you would read a novel, with visually-expressed characters interactions. However, by applying virtual reality to a VN, it provides a never-before-seen experience. We are aiming to realize the sensation of observing a drama from inside the stage. This is endorsed by Japanese web magazine INSIDE Games, quoted as “This feeling is very close to the one I get when reading a novel. This is truly VN; in other words, the novelistic world is deployed into a VR space."
Dark suspense story steeped in folklore. The protagonist sees how the saint worshiped by a small superstitious village drives them mad. Although she will make an effort to bring the village back to sanity, the protagonist notices that the living and the dead coexist, and despairs of this. The story you follow sees the dead people which are at first unseen, bringing deep synchronicity with the VR experience.
Simultaneously developed a 3D visual novel version that does not require VR devices, and which takes advantage of camerawork unavailable in VR games. Depending on the player's environment, either version may be selected.
Synopsis:
Our story is set in the rural Japanese village of Daiusu, where a community of Christians have lived in seclusion for many generations. Hamomoru Tachbana is invited to this village as a guest.
The village has just finished building its long-dreamed-of cathedral, and the mood is celebratory.
The villagers wish to use this moment to enter the modern world of the 1920s. As part of this, Hamomoru is asked to archive the history and legends of Daiusu.
Located in a secluded part of Japan due to a long history of oppression, the village's faith has taken a peculiar turn.
The Faith of the Saint.
The villagers have come to project their hopes for salvation onto a "Saint" who came from the outside world.
This tradition of treasuring friendly visitors seems perfectly suited to modernizing the village.
And yet.
Just as the village begins to come together, a restless shroud still hangs over it. Individual motives begin to clash, and miracles occur as if to make a mockery of everything...
What will become of Daiusu's attempt to enter the wider world?
