About the Game

Three perpetually bickering college students team up to create an AI, but will their quest for a robotic child end up as a crash course in parenting or self-defense?

Discover the secret this group of "friends" is hiding and choose if you want to help them forgive and forget... or fuel the conflict.

Features:

  • 2 wildly different endings
  • A heartwarming story about found family
  • Or a terrifying illustration of AI gone wrong
  • 1-2 hours of reading
  • Original Soundtrack

Background:

This is a HD remaster of a popular jam game made within 30 days for NaNoRenO 2019. Aside from minor corrections and improvements, the story has remained unchanged. Thank you to everyone who supported the original and made it possible for me to create this improved version!
