About the Game

"New · Pseudo Liberty Book" is a short interactive visual novel game. Enter the inner world of a young scholar deeply troubled by mental illness, experience a journey of struggle intertwined with despair and hope in a bizarre and unique style, and witness different endings of the story through the power of "choice".

Visual Design

This title employs classical watercolor hand-painting techniques, with all artwork and scenes meticulously hand-drawn to deliver a distinctive visual experience for players.

In scenes filled with symbolic and surreal elements, you'll need to guide the protagonist through key dialogue choices, engage in difficult conversations with different inner voices, and make choices that profoundly affect the direction of the story at crossroads symbolizing despair and hope. Each choice is critical, shaping the protagonist's state of mind, unlocking distinct narrative paths, and ultimately leading to different endings.

Game features

The game itself is a super short work with two endings. The game scenes and characters are all hand-painted in watercolor, and the animation is designed frame by frame, giving you the most retro gaming experience.
