This game is quite hard to get any English information on, so I don’t know much about the game, and am not even sure if it’s been released yet or there’s only a demo version so far.

Natsu no Kagerou is a 3D game collaboration between doujin circle Twilight Frontier (aka Tasogare Frontier, known for, among other things, Eternal Fighter Zero, the Touhou fighting games and the Madoka game Grief Syndrome) and Ryukishi07 of doujin circle 07th Expansion (writer of Higurashi, Umineko, Ookamikakushi, Higanbana and part of Rewrite).

It seems to be a horror game, but in the traditional ‘holy fuck what’s going on’ sense, not the modern ‘zombies everywhere SHOOT SHOOT SHOOT’ kind. I’m kind of lacking other details to describe the game with as practically nothing regarding the game, not even a simple plot summary, has been translated so far.

Very interesting… I love both of these circles – they do *great* work. I’m looking into Natsu no Kageru as I type and I see it was announced on April Fool’s day in 2010. It’s TF’s first original work and still not finished… I suspect it would require a LOT of localization (at least by Nyu Media standards), but happy to explore this one a bit deeper…

On the subject of Madoka (fantastic anime, btw!!) games, Ohbado’s Homura game from C81 looks like it will be corn-fed awesome: http://ohbado.sakura.ne.jp/homcombat/

That’s odd. It works fine for me. Perhaps the site has an issue with your IP address?

Getting a 403 as well. GenkiPatton, you don’t happen to be in Japan, do you? Some companies block foreign IP addresses, but I don’t think I’ve seen that happen to doujin circles before…
