Than Winter Came (Visual Novel)

Created by: Yanagami

Genre: Comedy/Dark

Than Winter Came kind of makes no sense at all, but it is also really hilarious and scary at the same time. You also get to play as a bird, which should tell you exactly the type of tone that this game is really going for. The entire time, I thought our main boy MJ was our yandere, but he is in fact actually the darling in this.

The story starts out with you as the player reincarnating as a crow, only to be hired by an abino crow into the Scare Crow Crow Inc. Their job is to essentially be guardian angels for different people, with the clumsy crow (that's you) being guardian angel to someone known as Mavi Sky Jazz (or just, MJ). Before the crow can even do anything or even just barely realizes that their memory has been wiped, they're sent into the real world to find them. They eventually do, with MJ being a bit unsettled that a talking crow is following them around. MJ ends up taking a bus to a snowy area with the crow following him. He talks to the crow about how this is a special place for him, as it's where him and his friend Than became friends. They end up hanging out in a secret place on the mountain, promising that they would always have each other's backs. However, in an unfortunate turn of events, Than got into an accident and died. MJ gets emotional as he thinks about it, wishing Than would come back so that they could hang out again. As it gets late, the two of them get a bit lost, and have to find their way back to the bus.

Going onto the ice will lead the two into a strange creature as they get lost. If they run across the ice, they'll be able to escape and make it back to the bus stop. MJ thanks the crow for going with them as they were able to be with them when they were emotional. If they instead try to tread more carefully, they will end up being caught by the same creature.

A similar fate happens when going to the forest, where they see a trail of blood. Following this will not only lead to a body but also have them caught by the creature.

Finally going down the road will have them arrive in the forest. Continuing down this path, they end up going into a cabin to take shelter in the snow. They end up knocking and a man comes in to accept them in. The man introduces himself as Peter and the two end up retiring for the night. When MJ wakes up, he is tied up, with Peter watching over him. It seems Peter was jealous that MJ always talked about Than so he (likely)killed him, and planned it so that they would end up in his cabin. MJ can then ask about either him or Crow. In certain endings, the game will abruptly end with Peter forcing MJ to stay. He can also attempt to flirt with Peter to loosen the ropes and attack Peter, taking him down once and for all.

Did you understand what this game was about? No? Good, me neither, but I think that's what's great about it. The entire thing is pretty absurdist and surreal considering we're literally a bird the entire time (and the pictures used of said crow is pretty funny), though it does have some more emotional moments surprisingly especially when it comes to MJ's relationship with Than. The music and artwork work together to make a surprisingly atmospheric game, especially when contrasted with the more colder setting that they're in, and the horrifying creatures in some of the bad endings were also something that I feel were genuinely really scary at times.

The yandere himself basically kind of seems to come out of nowhere, and that's when the two eventually venture to the log cabin after they can't find the bus stop. I will say that the assets he did have for sprites were very cool, seeing that Peter gets more deranged as the story goes on. From what I can tell, Peter was the reason (or at least involved with) Than's death and has an obsession with MJ for quite a long time. He also ended up planning everything from the beginning to get MJ and to an extent, the crow into his cabin. Doesn't really explain the really creepy monster at all though, but maybe that's part of his plan as well? The monster really doesn't get explained at all. Peter is pretty obsessive though and kind of easy to trick of MJ shows any interest in him, but I still feel like he was kind of shoehorned in there. Hard to tell with this game because there's just a lot of randomness going on.

Overall, i think while it was a fun game, with the humor and scary moments, it was pretty confusing considering it's pretty surreal. It's a quick game jam game so of course there's no need to make it the best thing ever, but I think there could still be some clarifying points. (I also just noticed that "Than" is in the title name too lol).

Interview with Euronymous for Morbid Magazine 1987

You had planned a tour in Italy, what will happen now that Manheim is gone?

Euro: We'll just use Torben. But the tour will be in December instead of August as first planned. This is for several reasons.

Does Maniac use distortion on his vocals or is his voice natural?

Euro: Maniac's voice is actually natural! When I first heard him I was sure that he used distortion, but he don't. You can hear that on the demo/record, because he and Messiah use the same mike together! But I think he uses some ki nd of space effect.

How do you manage to play so fast?

Euro: Well, you know that the more practice you get the faster it goes, and we've played for three years, now. But we don't play fast compared to bands like Napalm Death! They're fast!

Has your demo sold well?

Euro: We've sold some, but most people prefer to wait for the record, I think. We've sold a couple of hundred records, even before it's out!

Are any record labels interested to make a deal with you?

Euro: I don't know.We haven't tried to get a deal yet. We recently got a letter from some label called Thunder Records. They wanted a demo so I sent them one. But except from that we haven't sent out any demo to record companies at all.A lot of people have told us that we'd get a deal easily, but we hate record companies. If we'd sign a deal, we'd loose all control. Now we do everything ourself, distribution, promotions and stuff, on our own label called "Posercorpse Music, Inc. "If we sign a deal, we might get much better distribution and more money, but still we prefer to do things ourself. I mean, which rec. company would print our lyrics? However, if we one day do sign a deal, I doubt that it will be more than a one or two record deal.

Were do people that buy your demo come from?

Euro: From all of the world.We've even got a lot of letters from strange places like Japan, Australia, Poland, Chile and Peru!

What do you think of the Norwegian thrash scene?

Euro: It sucks, but I think it starts to build up now. More and more people seem to become active in the scene which I think is good. One thing which also is good is that punks and thrashers now start uniting. But I think that more girls should get into the scene! I know about just 5-6 of them here in this country. However, the Norwegian scene has alot of suckers!It is people who just walk around, thinking "I listen to Slayer, I'm hard!" and we also have those who make crooked use on bands and others, I'm not going to mention any names, but this is Bad!

Do you feel that many people buy your demo after they have read a Fanzine with you in it?

Euro: Yeah, I think that's the way most people get to know about us. We've also been played on lots of local radios everywhere, but it's deffinetly the fanzines who make most of the promotion.

What music do you listen to?

Euro: Personally I listen a lot to electronic syntheziser music like Klaus Schule, Tangerine Dream, Conrad Schnitzler and Brian Eno. I also listen to lots of thrash and some hardcore. But, NO disco shit, pop music or HM.

What do you think about Vomit and the music they play?

Euro: They rule! Their new stuff is so great! To be honest, I think they're better than us! They're really great guys. When Manheim left us they lent us Torben and they let us come to practice at their rehearsalplace every weekend. That's a cool attitude. Support them! They will have a new demo out this autumn.

You visited Kreator some time ago, how did they react when they first heard you?

Euro: The German thrashers are psychos! At that time we had only released "P.F.A" demo, and a lot of them loved it! Then you have to be sick!

You've got some help from Metalion of Slayer Mag. what do you think of him and the Fanzine?

Euro: Metalion is a fucking great guy and our best friend. If it haden't been for him....... The Deathcrush record is dedicated to him, and he truly deserves it! His 'zine is one of the best ive seen and also definitely the sickest.

Too Close

America Chavez x GN Reader

Request - Could you write America Chavez x GN Reader?

America decided to stay on Earth-199999 and she will be trained by Dr. Strange. You became friends with her and you spent more time with her almost every day. But she started to develop feelings for you, but she hasn't told you. She does smile more when you are around her and she tries to flirt with you but doesn't go well.

“So, Halloween doesn't exist on your Earth?” You asked.

“No. So why do people celebrate Halloween?” America asked.

“Just to have fun. Some people like to wear costumes and go to parties and everyone gets free candies also people just like the treats” You said.

“That doesn't sound boring. Why do people ask for candies?” America said.

“It just became a tradition to ask for candies. Oh, you should celebrate Halloween! We can wear costumes” You said.

She starts to think about it.

“Okay!” America smiled.

“Awesome” You smiled back at her.

While walking to the store, she starts to talk about her training. She is getting stronger but has a lot to learn, you can see that she has a strong bond with Dr. Strange. While in the store, you two start to look around and you help decide what to wear. You got your costume but she hasn't decided what to wear. It took a while for her to pick a costume but she finally did it. Later, you and America went to get something to eat. She starts to ask what makes you attracted to someone and you start to tell her. But you didn't notice that she is into you.

✫ ✯ ✫ ✯

It's Halloween, and you are dressed as Sully from Monster Inc. America is dressed as Luigi and you take a selfie with her. You went to a party with her and Peter is happy to see you and America.

“Who are you dressed as?” America asked.

“I’m dressed as Han Solo from Star Wars” Peter smiled.

“What is a Han Solo?” America asked.

“Y/n, please tell me that she is joking,” Peter said.

“On her earth, Star Wars doesn't exist,” You said.

“Well, that explains it. Okay, Star Wars is about-”

Peter started to ramble on about what is Star Wars. But America got confused she didn't understand who are the characters or what is a jedi.

“Peter! Next time, we will show her the movies. Breathe and let's take a break from talking about Star Wars” You said.

“Okay. There are drinks and food in the kitchen” Peter smiled.

“Okay,” You and America said.

You and America are starting to have fun. Wanda and her kids are at the party, Wanda isn't after America or Dr. Strange anymore. Wanda just said hi to you and America then walked away.

“So no more fighting?” You asked.

“No. We worked it out and she doesn't hate me” America said.

You don't dance but America tries to convince you to dance.

“Come on, Y/n it will be fun,” America said.

“I don't know how to dance,” You said.

“It will be fun, Y/n,” America said.

“Okay, fine” You smiled.

She tells you to let loose and just have fun. You are starting to hesitate and she gently grabbed your hands. You start to dance and you are feeling very nervous about it, but she encourages you to keep dancing. You and America keep smiling at each other while dancing.

Later, you and America went to get something to eat in the kitchen.

“I’m really liking Halloween,” America said.

“That’s good to know,” You said.

You and America are standing very close to each other. She leans in and kissed you on the lips, she gently put her hand on your cheek and kept kissing you. She pulled away and you are speechless, it felt like your heart was beating much louder than the music.

“Y/n, I really like you a lot. I wanted to kiss you for so long” America said.

“Wow... America I-I”

“I get it, you don't feel the same way,” America said.

She started to walk away fast, she is leaving the party. You start to chase after her, then start to use her magic to leave but you grabbed her arm and pulled her towards you.

“America, I have feelings for you too. When you kissed me... I was caught off guard but I liked the kiss” You said.

“You mean it?” America asked.

“Yeah, I mean it. I wouldn't lie to you about my feelings and I want to kiss you again” You smiled.

“Me too, I want to kiss you again” America smiled.

She wrapped her arms around you and you start to kiss her.

“Do you want to go on a date with me?” America asked.

“Yeah, I would go on a date with you. Wait, does this mean you are my girlfriend?” You said.

“Yeah, I will be your girlfriend,” America said.

You kissed her again and she starts to smile then she kissed you back. But, you leave the party with her and went to get pizza. While walking to get pizza, she would hold your hand. You and America can't stop smiling about what just happened.

tell me about rich inc pretty please

I'VE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS DAY TO COME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! : D

Okay so. Shit. where do I start. Be prepared to read.

In 1977 there were two college students in New York, Solomon Bruno and Richard Mann, who were childhood friends experimenting on rats in Solomon's mother's basement trying to increase the longevity of their lives. Right? Right.

This next sequence of events is what leads to Richard becoming an evil, homicidal billionaire and leads to Solomon joining the anti-Rich INC activist group known as the Mortal Men, who is trying to prove Immortality is quite literally made of the blood of the innocent- One night Richard and Solomon are outside a diner and there's a cute girl inside, they flip a coin and ultimately decide that Richard is the one who gets to talk to her- Her name is Helen, she's studying at Harvard to become a lawyer. They begin dating. On Richard's 21st birthday Helen throws him a huge house party which he pretends to like, even though Solomon knows better and knows he doesn't enjoy those types of social gatherings. Richards not enjoying himself and ultimately decides to leave, he tells Helen who accidentally lets the words "I love you" slip from her mouth. Ruh-roh, Richard says NOTHING back and just. Leaves.

Solomon sees Helen rush upstairs, crying, and goes to check on her. One thing leads to another, and, they be boinking. ANYYYYWAYS fast forward like two months later and Helen goes on a trip to Africa (she loves elephants and endangered species) and Solomon is trying to deal with his guilt of sleeping with his best friends girlfriend, he's wondering if he should tell him.

One night, while one of the newer testing rats is in the same cage with the oldest test rat- the elderly rat eats the younger one. And, surprisingly, it starts displaying signs of youthfulness again! Its gray hairs disappear and it starts behaving like a younger rat. So, Solomon and Richard, not thinking about the implications of this strange development, just decide to celebrate their accomplishment! Yay!

They smoke some herbage, they drink some drinkage, they're havin' a good time !

They turn on music, they're slow dancing! Like friends do!

And then Solomon, thinking about his guilt and sleeping with Helen is like, "Hey, I have to tell you something."

And Richard straight up goes, "You don't have to tell me anything," And he kisses Solomon on the mouth.

But wuh-oh. Solomon punches him in the eye! .... Not cool dude ! he yells at Richard to "get the fuck out" of his house . And uh. yeah they're not friends anymore. To say the least. A few months later when Helen is back in town, Solomon gets into a car crash when a black cat runs in the road and he swerves out of the way. He ends up in the hospital, sedated, when Richard shows up and has him sign this document Helen wrote up. Which, he does, not knowing it's basically a false admission that he had NOTHING to do with the development of immortality and that he owns no rights to the profits or credit. Which. The actual story takes place in 1999 and it follows: A young man named Jasper, who is an aspiring writer from Canada living in a dingy apartment in New York with his hairless cat named Ugly. He ends up working for Rich INC as Richard's assistant. A young woman named CJ, who is the leader and founder of the Mortal Men, her life's work is to take down Richard, and avenge her brother who went missing four years prior. 👀 Solomon, who is now a jaded and bitter forty year old man who has dedicated his time to trying to fighting Richard any way he can and getting the credit he deserves, throwing away his life in the process. Richard, who is now a cold and compassionless horrifying billionaire who gets away with everything he does, has the world in the palm of his hand and feels he still has nothing that he wants. And Helen, Richard's unloved wife who is perpetually trying to fill the void of the dreams she lost. UHHHHHHHHH if you read all this fucking. thank you lol. also questions are very appreciated... dbihkbshkbkhsb thanks for asking about Rich INC. I should start on maybe making it into a graphic novel around January...... but we'll see

Year-End Poll #31: 1980

[Image description: a collage of photos of the 10 musicians and musical groups featured in this poll. In order from left to right, top to bottom: Blondie, Pink Floyd, Olivia Newton-John, Michael Jackson, Captain & Tennille, Queen, Paul McCartney, Lipps Inc, Billy Joel, Bette Midler. End description]

More information about this blog here

From here on, I know that the number of people who follow this blog who were around to see these songs on the charts will increase exponentially. To be honest, I am very intimidated. Please be nice to me.

The 1970's exists in a weird time in pop culture history, because it really feels like an island. Any decade that begins with the Beatles breaking up and ends with the murder of John Lennon is going to exist in a strange place culturally. Combine that with the previously mentioned decline of disco, the simultaneous rise in inflation and unemployment, and President Carter's declining popularity leading to Ronald Reagan's landslide victory. It was clear that whatever the next decade was, it wasn't going to be like the 70s.

But during this year, Reagan wasn't in office, so I don't have to talk about that yet.

Musically, you can see the last bits of the 70's clinging on. Disco, despite being famously "killed off" still has its place on the charts. Funkytown, for example, is often brought up in pop culture mythology as being the "last big disco song". I'm mostly bringing it up because I feel bad that I had to crop the song's composer, Steven Greenberg, out of the banner. The one good thing about the charts moving away from orchestras and ensembles is that I don't have to worry about cropping people out.

But in addition to the endings, the dawn of the 1980's also comes with its new beginnings. For one, Michael Jackson's solo career will take him from the standout star of the Jackson 5, to the king of pop music itself.

I talked a bit about the rise of punk rock in the 70's, but I didn't go into that much detail because the scene didn't have much presence on the charts. The Clash may have been "The Only Band That Matters", but that wasn't the case to the data compiling the Hot 100. However, while punk rock has seen little mainstream success on the charts, several of its descendants will come to define this decade. Most notable here is Blondie, kicking off the decade with one of its first new wave hits. This movement will only continue to grow from here, especially when we get to the second British Invasion, as well as pop music becoming more image-focused during the MTV era.

Which means I will no longer struggle to find pictures of the artists features in these polls.

Happy Birthday Tech N9ne‼️

[valandhirwriter]

This is a ask I saw in a ask list earlier, and I've been thinking of it all day. What song do you think would make a great fic?

Im going to be asking a few people. I'm actually really curious.

I got this questions twice. @regis-favorite-raven asked me too! Thanks to both of you.

It's a dangerous thing to ask me that, because honestly: I have too many stories and plot bunnies in my head and music is an easy trigger for more. So here we go.

Fires Fade by Miracle of Sound and Let there be fire by the Aviators

Those two would basically be the broken world arch in Witcher fanfic, starting with an ended world (and no the white frost would not be an ice age) and with re-awakening of either Eskel or Erland in the ruins, re-awoken after the world failed and now having to find a way to somehow free the world from the white frost's claws and maybe, just maybe also save it. It would be a rather dark tale, with a rather dark and cynical view on certain game events, as well as book events too. It would also claim that Alzur for all his madness saw what was coming and tried to arm the world with a new type of warrior, which sadly the world didn't want.

Fires Fade by Miracle of Sound. Let there be fire by the Aviators.

Birth of an Age by Clamavi de Profundis and Past and Future Secret by Blind Guardian

The Dwarrow Saga. This would be a dwarven story, not set in fanfic but actually in it's own world, though I won't deny there are some inspirations that came from Tolkien's dwarrow. So there's that. It would feature a dwarven art of implanting magical crystals into someone to create powerful warriors. Gemlings are feared outside the dwarven lands, and most humans are shocked to learn that Gemlings indeed are humans. It would feature a warrior, who got implanted by a power-hungry lunatic, and while he could prevent himself from being controlled his mind is fraying rapidly. Pained and shaken, he searches for the dwarrow, because they might be able to remove the crystal. Halfway through his journey he encounters a dwarrow crystal smith who is willing to help him. The dwarrow in turn is looking for his vanished older brother, who never returned from the lowlands…

Birth of an Age by Clamavi de Profundis . Past and Future Secret by Blind Guardian.

Under a coal black sun by Mono INC and The man who can't forget (cover by Gustavo Steiner)

Yes, I know that the Man who can't forget is already linked to Wheel of time. And this would be a wheel of time fanfic. A seventh age fanfic. A space fanfic. A Fanfic were the catastrophe happened, that threw the world back into the new coming of the first age (and as the first age is essentually our world, something must have gone horribly wrong). This would be the age where the Dragon falls to the dark, where the Dark one triumphs for a while, and the world is again shattered. It would feature space ships, channelers in space, the question whether others escaped the world in former cycles and whether the cyclical nature of the world is real. Except for the dragon and maybe a few heroes of the horn, most characters would have to be OCs, or maybe OCs where one might speculate whether or not we knew them in another incarnation. I have a space-ship in mind, the Valere - a sleeper ship - because in the end of the day we know: the grave is no bar to my call.

Under a coal black sun by Mono INC. The man who can't forget (cover by Gustavo Steiner).

Totentanz by Die Streuner

This would be a story about a strange ghost near a village, a ghost that only attacks Witchers. After Eskel is severely injured when surprised by the ghost, Lambert goes to investigate. He has heard stories about this weird ghost before. As he dodges an attack himself, he slowly digs into the past of the village and learns of a girl, who had a short if hot affair with a Witcher but was left by said Witcher, and took her own life shortly after. Who was the Witcher… now take a guess. But he will have to dance with her, before the ghost can find rest.

Totentanz by Die Streuner.

Honourable mentions:

Windmills by Blackmore's night

This is practically my Erland theme song. The story of an old knight, who is still fighting the battle he swore to fight, even as the world around him forgot the danger they were in, and mocks him for it.

Jack Skellington (Jack Skellington, Nightmare Before Christmas) - Cigarette smoke and shadows in the corner of the room, this is your daily life. There’s nothing you hate more than your ability to see and hear ghosts and you’d do anything for this burden to be lifted. Anything.

Hector Rivera (Hector Rivera, Coco) - You’ve got a bone to pick…or two. Question is, with who? Will you ever find out who murdered you and make amends with your family?

Demitri “Demi” Whitfield (Demi, Vampirina) - Talk about a big oops. After causing and accident that led to your death, you are revenant, kept corporeal by one thing and one thing only – absorbing satisfaction! That’s right, you must be a people pleaser or else you literally will blink in and out of existence. Fun!

Joe Gardner (Joe Gardner, Soul) - Live well? Live well and what, prosper!? Okay, Spock. Look, not to look a gift horse in the mouth, but couldn’t the Fates have been a little more precise with what you were meant to do with your second chance at life? Well, okay then. Looks like you’re going to roll up your sleeves and figure this out yourself!

James P. Sullivan (Sully, Monster’s Inc.) - Not every big scary guy wants to be scary, you know. Maybe he’s actually a nice person. Have you ever considered that the monster under your bed has feelings, too?elp?

Miguel Rivera (Miguel Rivera, Coco) - Not to complain – okay, no, you’re gonna say it, you’re complaining. Isn’t “if a member of the Rivera family enters a singing contest, they hear ghosts now” a super specific curse!? Who does that! And how do you break it so you can play music in peace?

Card-en-Ciel ‘Story’ trailer, latest details - Gematsu

Inti Creates released the official story trailer, theme song video, and latest information for deckbuilder RPG Card-en-Ciel.

Get the details below.

■ A Card-Battling RPG Through the Eras of Gaming!

Card-en-Ciel is a card-battling, roguelite RPG featuring over 300 unique cards and 50 vocal songs. Players take control of Neon, a private detective who specializes in solving cases that take place in the virtual net. He must restore order to an in-development game that is under attack by countless characters leaking from other games across history. Dive into virtual dungeons where each victory earn new cards to add to your deck, strengthen those cards, then take on the powerful protagonists of the invading games. Each card brings a new synergy to your deck, creating combos with each other and the special Muse cards, whose songs add new passive abilities that last for the entire battle. Today, Inti Creates has revealed new information on the “real world” heroes, Neon and Ancie, as well as their mysterious rivals, Nanakt and RiTa, with a new trailer that delves into Card-en-Ciel‘s JRPG story! Inti Creates has also released a new music video for Card-en-Ciel‘s theme song, “To the Promised Sky”! They will be teaming up with Phoenixx Inc. to show the game at Gamescom, this August in Cologne, Germany!

Card-en-Ciel Features a Full Storyline Filled With Colorful Characters!

In Card-en-Ciel, players will use over 300 cards to battle enemies throughout the game. Each of these cards features a different character from 31 different games, both real Inti Creates’ developed titles and imagined games invented for the Card-en-Ciel universe. Each of the roguelite dungeons that players venture into features is themed by one of these games, and progresses a main storyline that drives the player through Card-en-Ciel for a complete JRPG experience. The story begins in the virtual reality world as the “Gaming Chair Detective” Neon arrives to help a developer, Ancie, when her in-development strategy game is suddenly invaded with monsters from other famous game franchises. This digital story takes a strange turn when they encounter “Nanakt,” a mysterious man who creates a virtual dungeon in the middle of the real world! Today, we are revealing the rival Nanakt and his partner RiTa for the first time with an extensive look at Card-en-Ciel‘s story in this new trailer!

■ Main Story

“Please save the world.” …This case begins with a single e-mail. It arrived in the mailbox of Neon Nanashiki, the “Gaming Chair Detective,” straight from an in-development full-dive VR game. Filled with curiosity, Neon gets to work hacking into the unfinished title. When Neon manages to log into the game, Rust Tactics, he meets a lone young woman. “Ancie,” [ahn-see] a developer on the game, was investigating powerful data run rampant inside the virtual world—Mad Obstructive Data, or MODs for short. Neon is not one to turn down a case, and accepts without hesitation. He promises Ancie to fix RT’s world, and ventures into the dangerous MOD Dungeons investigate. As the two begin to restore order to RT’s world, they find strange data in the dungeons, called “Error Fragments.” Suddenly, a mysterious man called “Selevan Nanakt” appears to steal the fragments from them. Nanakt disappears as suddenly as he arrived, and uses the Error Fragments to create a MOD Dungeon in the real world. Neon and Ancie rush to log out and investigate, running into each other in the process. The two of them follow Nanakt straight into the real-life dungeon, where Nanakt is waiting at the end, together with a mysterious girl…

■ Characters

♦ Neon and Ancie Venture into the Real World!

Neon (voiced by Aleks Le in English)

A talented hacker who solves crimes that take place in full-dive VR worlds, also known as the “Gaming Chair Detective.” When he takes on Ancie’s request to help her in the world of Rust Tactics, he discovers what appear to be sentient characters from other games, kicking off an adventure across the game multiverse.

Ancie (voiced by Christina Vee in English)

A developer with Helios Interactive, makers of Rust Tactics, who reaches out to Neon for help when an incident occurs in the game world. Ancie supports Neon’s dungeon crawling in various ways, such as analyzing enemy data to create cards

♦ Introducing the rivals, Nanakt and RiTa!

Selevan Nanakt (voiced by Jack Ayres in English)

A mysterious man who suddenly appears in RT’s world. He steals the Error Fragments that Neon has found and uses their power to open up a “security hole,” a dimensional rift, creating a new MOD Dungeon. Nanakt seems to know something about the MOD phenomena that Neon is investigating… He wishes to “overwrite the world” using the Error Fragments.

RiTa (voiced by Jackie Lastra in English)

A powerful MOD in the form of a young woman, summoned by Nanakt. Her song has the power to interfere with reality itself. RiTa has no will of her own and moves solely on Nanakt’s command.

■ Game System: Subjugation

Get acquainted with Card-en-Ciel‘s card-battling gameplay by watching the gameplay trailer! Today, we’ll introduce a key system in Card-en-Ciel‘s gameplay: Area Subjugation.

♦ Clear Out a Room and Reap the Rewards!

Eradicate all enemies from any room in the dungeon, and you’ll get a choice of 3 different rewards.

♦ Recovery

Recovery will restore a portion of your HP.

There are very few ways to restore your HP during a dungeon, and this is the most reliable.

♦ Position

Choose a card from your deck or a Muse you have acquired to position them in the dungeon room.

—Having an ally on the field will grant you a bonus while battling in nearby rooms.

When you choose a Muse to position, they will perform from the very beginning of battle in nearby rooms, granting their powerful passive bonus and Special Skill energy immediately. Any cards you Position will be temporarily removed from your deck and will return when moving to the next floor.

♦ Enhance

Choose this to apply a “Cheat Code” to one of three random cards in your deck. Cheat Codes are powerful additional effects that apply not only to the card you choose, but also every copy of that card in your deck. They can grant additional damage, reduce the card’s playing Cost, or even buff your damage simply by drawing it! You’ll be able to stack up to three Cheat Codes on a single card, so the Enhance option is always useful for powering up your deck.

■ Game System: Dungeon Rewards

Defeat the boss waiting at the end of a dungeon to clear it and earn a slate of rewards. Based on how you clear the dungeon, you’ll accelerate Neon’s growth, unlock new difficulty levels, and progress the main story.

♦ Dungeon Results

Aim for as Few Turns as Possible!

Your goal in each dungeon is defeat the powerful boss waiting at the end. Achieve that, and you’ll see the Results screen where you’ll get your well-earned rewards.

The score you earn at the end of the dungeon is largely determined by how many turns you took in battle. Winning battles in as few turns as possible is certainly important, but skipping battles entirely is an even bigger step to improving your score. This will also let you run through dungeons even faster! However, fight too few battles, and your deck and Muses may not be strong enough to take on the boss and Elite foes awaiting you. Striking this delicate balance will earn you a top score!

Dungeon Rewards

Clearing a dungeon will unlock new difficulty levels.

Higher difficulties will not only increase enemy stats, but also add new and interesting twists to battles with special rules. Earn a high enough score when clearing a dungeon to unlock up to 3 new difficulties at once! Clearing a dungeon will also earn “Decode Tokens” which are used to power up your player character.

Each new difficulty level you tackle means more tokens to earn. You can spend them to improve the odds on every dungeon you tackle, to improve your drop rates, Cheat Codes, HP, and more!

Theme Song: “To the Promised Sky”!

Card-en-Ciel features 50 vocal songs performed by the Muses in-game. These songs are created for the fictional game universes as if they were the real theme songs, battle themes, and endings, all composed in the style and genres of the appropriate eras. Today, we are revealing the theme song of Card-en-Ciel itself, performed by Ancie’s Japanese voice actress, Ruriko Noguchi, with a special music video!

Title: “To the Promised Sky”

Performer: Ancie (Ruriko Noguchi)

Lyrics: Yura Hatsuki

Composition: Takumi Sato

Arrangement: Takumi Sato
