instead of The Reboot Of That Book And Movie Series, consider instead buying kumitantei: old-school slaughter when it comes out next month on Steam!
a murder-mystery ADV - it's both that new book you were asked to read AND a video game!
glasses-wearing everywoman protagonist in a strange new school!
a bunch of wacky characters to get to know and love!
tense mysteries solved through wacky minigames!
a love letter to its influences; danganronpa, ace attorney, 80s retro gaming, and the works of Rumiko Takahashi (urusei yatsura, ranma 1/2, inuyasha!)
made by a majority-trans and majority-poc games studio, based in indonesia with employees from all over the world, but particularly SEA!
i'm the lead writer on this game and wrote a lot of the first episode, and i have not spent millions of dollars attempting to lobby against trans people's human rights! im in fact nonbinary myself!
please consider giving your time to this, i think you will find it a fulfilling use of your time and money!
