A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux

!! This is kind of a test run !!

I've finished the prologue and some snippets of the first route, but there's also lots of technical stuff going on that needs fixing, so please bear that in mind while playing! The soundtrack was mastered at different points in time during my learning process (I started making music this spring) and I haven't gotten around to remastering the whole thing. Same with codex and translations for some parts of the script, haven't gotten around to doing that yet. Apart from that, hope you'll like it!

Come, let’s take hands

and get lost in wonderland

Come, come. Follow the voice.  

What’s with the noise?

Why do you wait for night to fade 

While I hide in its shade? 

If you don’t come soon

I’ll be gone with the moon

Ignoring the absence of time, the wind hastens the purple clouds on their way. Their destination, a place unbeknown to us.
They are coloured in the light of the setting sun.

I awake on a large meadow in the fading light of twilight hour.
I can barely make out anything.
The meadow seems to expand endlessly, and in the fading light, it almost appears as if the surface is curved.

Suddenly the light of the set sun baths the mountains in a golden glow.
Blinded by the sudden brightness, I have to close my eyes.

For a moment, I thought I saw a strange figure standing in front of me.

I’ve decided to live being honest to myself, no matter the consequences and live life to its fullest. It might not have brought me many friends, though I can’t complain about not having enough enemies. But it is entertaining in its own way! 

And while myths such as the one about Neeve of the golden hair were interesting to read about,  especially the similarities found in mythology all across the globe are really fascinating! Did you know that the reason for these similarities in anthropology or more recent urban legends is all about the human psyche? They mirror our fears and desires, our hopes and dreams. With all our cultural differences, our fears and dreams appear strikingly similar, don’t they?

Still, can’t remember ever having done anything that would get me spirited away beyond space and time. I also can’t say that I find it all too entertaining. I prefer to be in control, and this situation I have found myself in appears to be beyond anyone’s control. Even that of the little trickster god. 

But you’ve got to do with what you get. As I said, my motto is 'Live life to the fullest'.

Follow Nozomu on his journey through space and time as he tries to figure out where he is, why he’s there and how to get back home, all while following the vague leads of a seemingly god-like being changing her appearance every time they meet. 

So far, she’s only set him on a suspicious interdimensional train with her more competent but definitely traumatised brother Fereshteh. Having a supernatural sister’s probably also not really the dream deal. Especially if she keeps so many secrets. She definitely knows more than she lets on, and Nozomu is convinced that the journey the little devil has set him on and the destinations she advised him to go to are incredibly important for finding the answers to his questions. So, why do these destinations absolutely make no sense to him? What does a little girl’s returning nightmares, a spirit’s thirst for revenge, an odyssey through strange lands, a war between the supernatural and humans and an alcoholic raven-haired beauty got to do with him finding his way back home? Or is he missing something important? And why can’t he remember anything prior to his awakening in that meadow? Where had he been, and what had he done,  like, the last few weeks? And where had he seen that face and that golden hair before? 

Find out by following Nozomu as he unravels the mysteries behind his spiriting away, his journey through time and space as he meets all kinds of people and perhaps comes face to face with truths he’d rather not have known. Or will he perhaps choose to face himself instead? Whatever may be his fate, the choices are YOURS to make!
