Ghostpia Season 1 undeniably has some of the best visuals of any visual novel that I've seen in years, and its dreamy soundtrack compliments it wonderfully. Unfortunately, its strange choice of protagonists, tendency to focus on unimportant details, and habit of changing tone too quickly make it hard to digest all that easily.
Ghostpia Season One reveals a new Nintendo Switch physical release that supports English, and pre-orders are live.
I don’t buy a lot of Switch games these days (mostly stuff for my kids) but I think I’ll pick this up
During the Indie Spotlight segment of the Indie Live Expo Winter 2024, room6 showcased a number of indie games it'll publish.
Games Asylum: "PQube’s latest visual novel has a haunting, melancholic, and unsettling tone, entailing a glitchy children’s storybook that often spills out into violence and bloodshed. It’s a tale of female friendship with a lovely melodic soundtrack smashed together with trauma, a bit of John Wick, and some discordant electronic bleeps and bloops."
Maybe one day Pqube will grow out of anime (which is every game ...based out the UK... ick).
