This is a positive, fun, and lighthearted novel about making games. For the first 200 chapters, daily life and game development get equal billing.
After that, it mainly focuses on game development. Overall, it's a story about building a super game empire in a world of anime alongside beautiful girls.
Games featured so far:
A lightly adapted version of Touhou: “Touhou Fantasy Mirror”
“A Touhou game that might not be all that Touhou.”
The evolved version: the AI shipgirl game that's received the highest praise in this book so far, and appears throughout the story. Everyone who sees it says they want to play it: “Shipgirls-GO”
“The Chronos gaming platform is having a sale! Shipgirl rings are 70% off. It's time to make your waifu your wife, don't you think? Come check it out!”
Original games inspired by The End Girls: “The Final Journey,” “Journey of Survival,” and “The End: Battle Royale”
“A healing game built around despair. The so-called end of the world can make you cry, not just flatten your face.”
A game inspired by all kinds of wuxia novels: “Chang'an Dream”
“A thousand years pass in a Chang'an dream; ashes at your fingertips reveal the world's desolation. Let us take you into the world of classical Chinese wuxia.”
