Project; Virai: Doomer's Life Escape
Project: Virai: Doomer's Life Escape is a Life Sim RPG that blends visual novel storytelling with psychological thriller elements. Players dive into the life of a shut-in girl, Hicha, whose only reason to keep going is her virtual avatar, Virai, who may not be what she seems. It's up to them to help Hicha escape her depressive nightmare before it consumes her completely. The game is a mix of OMORI and Needy Streamer Overload, exploring themes of parasocial relationships and the blurring of lines between real and virtual life.
The developers experiment with the game format in a style similar to MiSide. Players will explore the emotional world of the protagonist through several visual styles created by artist RIKANI (known for her work on the game An alt girl for skoof). Begin in Hicha's bleak 2D pixel-art reality, then immerse yourself in the surreal 3D virtual world of VITA. Uncover its secrets — and decide how Hicha's story will end.
- Hikikomori Life Simulation: Step into the anxious Hicha's life and experience the health-destroying routine within the gray walls of Soviet panel architecture.
- Ten Endings: from total collapse to liberation — your choices define the fate of the heroine. Each ending offers a different level of psychedelic immersion into alternate realities.
- ARG Quest: A sea of mysteries in Virai's world awaits the most curious and attentive players, going beyond the virtual space.
- Music: Ten tracks by various indie post-punk artists hidden throughout the game, enhancing the atmosphere of doomer music and deepening the emotional impact of the game.
