Siren's Call: A free Denpa visual novel where you escape from an actual tourist trap. Siren's Call is a Denpa visual novel loosely based off of my experiences living in (and escaping) Central Florida as an adult on the autism spectrum. The game was a passion project made by myself, my wife, my best friend, and a couple other close friends and freelancers. It took us roughly four years to complete and is now out on Steam for free. While your millage may vary on how scary you find the game (much of it is based off of my own personal fears), I can say with conviction that you will feel the love and effort put into this project. Steam Download: here Features and stuff: 7+ hours of Visual Novel Gameplay with dire consequences for how you choose to spend this final day of yours. 55 journal entries and and 60 unlockable gallery images for those who want to explore everything this town has to offer. An original story centered on saying goodbye to friends rather than saying hello to strangers. A dynamic, original soundtrack meant to perfectly capture the feel of central Florida music. A cast of lovely characters that only want what's best for you. A 94% positivity rating on steam with 150+ reviews! (not a feature, but I'm proud of this one} Characters: Judith, the exceptionally sweet (and extraordinarily intense) sovereign of Siren’s Call! Andi, the sovereign’s sassy twin sister whose strength and spunk speak volumes on their own! Ashton, a hero in training whose sizable fist is matched only by the size of his heart! Emil, the once timid boy turned man who will not stop until he reaches absolute perfection... and, of course, Violet: your actual girlfriend. We've finished the main game which you can find on steam right here, but my team and I are also making extra story content as well! Prove You Aren't Dead: A Epilogue While it is true that our team succeeded where many others have failed and got Siren's Call out in a playable state, it is far from being "complete." Over the course of the past five months, I've released a few bonus stories acting as a prequel of sorts to the events of the main game. But in terms of the true epilogue...that is what I'm going to be working on for the foreseeable future. If you would like to support this project, there's a link to the kickstarter right here, but I mostly just wanted to create this post as a little home where I can post updates on not just this new content, but Siren's Call as a whole. If anybody has any comments or feedback on the project, I am very excited to hear them and discuss your experiences. This VN has been my wife and I's life for the past few years and if ya'll have any thoughts, don't hesitate to share them. Until then, enjoy your stay in Siren's Call.

If you followed twitter, you have probably noticed that the official Aksys Games Europe account posted, that they will soon have a warehouse opening in Europe. This warehouse will be located in Hungary, a country known for its current terrible economic situation, but this goes beyond the point. The point being that people from Europe can now order the Standard and Limited Editions of their inventory much cheaper and without abhorrent customs fees or custom holdup. I made a post about this earlier on r/otomegames which has got some good traction, a lot of upvotes but also critical comments towards the venture. You can read them in this thread.

Possible, but I'd rather guess the problem here is that with this game, which looks like an older eroge from the early 2000s, you have to have the game CD inserted in the PC disk drive in order to play the game. Naturally, you install the game with the CD inserted. But even when the game files are already installed in your PC, you still need the CD inside your PC to run the game. So seems to be the case with earlier titles. With the proliferation of digital releases, this kind of problem is not to be seen anymore. TL;DR A physical CD is required. Otherwise you'll have to wait until an eroge wizard creates a patch or so.

Yeah the thread title here is definitely rhymed all right. Anyway the tweet in regard of it below. Initially Steam did list it as October release, although right now it already change into Q4 2022, so it mean that at the latest we'll get the VN in December's end. That aside, as we know this is Laplacian VN which we know was released Aojashin back on February with one tiny fault that caused one tiny controversy that still enough to annoy me here (At least it won't happen with Mirai Radio here), so if possible I prefer to less talk about it for now. Anyway it's good that we finally have the long wait for it is finally almost over, especially if one already waited for it ever since Sol Press announced it (When they still have enough spirit before realized that they didn't allocate enough money to pay taxes).

Hungary is certainly an interesting location for this... But I guess they are trying at least? Eh. I think I will stay with my beloved NetGames for now. I can only recommend them for anyone living in Germany!

Ah yes, the programmer's problem solving failure post-sadness

Sorry, I wanted to help you earlier, but this error is a bit finnicky. It basically says that there are driver errors for the music.

Good luck on the proofread for Shino's route there.

Still updating the collection after 6 years? *respectful slow clap*
