About the Game

A metafiction RPG set in a game world

Play time: 10-20 hours

Number of Ends: 5

[Synopsis]

A meteorite fell on the world.

The protagonist, Defo, who regularly travels through various game worlds,

takes a keen interest in the case and begins investigating it from both a professional and personal perspective.

Amid all this, Defo obtained audio data from the World Administrator.

The Administrator stated that this incident was not a case of "a meteorite falling to Earth",

but rather "a stone being thrown at a work of fiction".

And they end up discovering the truth through a bug.

[Overview]

This game is a linear, full-length RPG centered on the theme of metafiction,

set in a world where real-life games are intertwined.

Due to the nature of this game's world, there are some ambiguous elements throughout,

but since the characters have all come to terms with this, we ask that players keep this in mind as they play.

This game was created as a tribute to "YIIK" and various glitch videos.

The battle system is almost identical to that of "FF6", which is famous for its bug videos,

and there're also references to people who use electronic money.

Additionally, parts of the game's world are inspired by "Aibyou World".

Not only is the artwork original, but many of the sound effects are as well.

We've carefully selected high-quality music tracks with a subtle fantasy feel.

Languages other than Japanese are machine-translated, but this'll be improved in the near future.
