What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“The main game isn't finished yet, but i wanted to convey the atmosphere of the game to players as soon as possible, so we decided to release it as a short story in early access.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“It will be in early access for 1-2 years.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“I'm considering adding 12 chapters, with 1 in-game month as 1 chapter. Chapters will not change at a set time, and i plan to make it possible to advance to the next chapter at any time by clearing the conditions of the story. And i also want to add the time flow of the day.I plan to change the quests that can be advanced depending on the time of day, such as morning, noon, and night. I'm thinking of increasing the amount of time the protagonist can act as the story progresses. I'm also planning to add a story to purify the lost souls. By purifying the lost souls, we plan to increase the number of places you can go and progress the story. We are thinking of adding 12 maps, including maps that can be played in early access. (Possibly more!)”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The story can be advanced with a system similar to the system for searching for lost souls in the main story. In addition, it is possible to explore the map that is planned to be added in the main part, albeit a little. No time system.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“After the period, we plan to raise the price and start selling the main part.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“I'm thinking of creating a place to discuss in-game bug reports and improvements on Twitter and Discord!”

About This Game

This is an exploration adventure game in which a girl named Saeki and her friend Maeda help people who have taken in bad souls called "lost souls" while exploring the "back alleys" with many back alleys. You can also enjoy life in the back alleys by walking through the nostalgic streets, talking with unique residents such as strange-shaped heads, half-beasts and demons, dressing up and eating parfaits at cafes. The goal of the game is to find a way to help the lost souls who cause incidents in the city through communication with the residents, purify them with amulets, and put up a barrier so that no more lost souls are born.
