I may never have the means/success to make a Siren’s Call fighting game like I want to (working title Siren’s Call: Golden Fantasia) but I DO have the highest rated VN on VNDB with the tag “Autistic Protagonist” so that’s something I can bring up at thanksgiving dinner right?????

So after 4 or so hours of playing, I can say with confidence that I’ve decoded the mystery behind what the “F” in silent hill f stands for!!!

It’s…it’s five.

This is silent hill five people. Lives up to that idea too.

Let’s see if it can stick the landing.

Turns out Steam changes the currency of the store based on what country I’m in. Interesting.
BUT NOT AS INTERESTING AS SIREN’S CALL BEING ON SALE!!!1 Buy it for a friend, a spouse, your cat. Thank you goodbye! *jumps out window 🚀🛹🌚

TGS has been a life changing experience! Thank you so much to World Map for having us! Anybody who is at the show, please comes check out Siren’s Call at the World Map booth in hall 11 (and also give some of their other amazing games a try n_n). So much talent here!

Kinda crazy to me how Siren’s Call: Escape Velocity has almost double the reviews on VNDB (visual novel data base) than on Steam.

I feel like this says something, but I don’t know exactly what.

The ending of Siren’s Call: Escape Velocity has become, to my surprise, the most contentious aspect of the game. There were things I thought people would be much more divided on.

For our first game/visual novel, it’s kinda cool to see, ngl.

Love both of these reviews.

During high school, I entered my villain arc in style. It started after beating my ex-girlfriend in a state-level poetry contest with a poem about how much of a better poet I was than her. She wrote a poem about how she didn’t understand my religion and came in 2nd place.

Yes I stole this from musky folks site…I feel like we’ll get better answers here lol

The psychotic urge to discount Siren’s Call to as low as Steam will let me during the next summer sale just to see what will happen.

To celebrate us like…well…finally turning a profit on Siren’s Call: Escape Velocity, I’m giving away 50 keys for the game on Steam Gifts.

Love visual novels? Enter it

Hate Florida? Enter it.

Thank you all for the love and support.

It took a long freaking time, but thanks to the Steam Summer sale, as of an hour ago, we are finally out of debt for the development of Siren’s Call: Escape Velocity.

Our current total profit is 2$. :)
Thank you to everyone who gave our game a chance.

If I had a nickel for each Megami Tensei inspired indie game that I covered today that featured a male protagonist dressed up in a maid outfit, I'd have two nickels.

Which isn't a lot, but it's so freakin' hot that it happened twice.

JUDITH HI!

Insanely honored to be a part of this video series I've always loved. Please check out not just this video, but all of Strain's videos because it is the BEST Megami Tensei source on the web imo.
NEW VIDEO!

That's right, I'm back with five more games inspired by the Megami Tensei franchise! From a Persona-inspired VN to a buddy cop adventure through mirrors!

Likes and RPs greatly appreciated!
