Story

Hey, can you hear me?　Can you see me?

You, after quitting your job, was casually browsing the video site with the spare time. It was 2 am when a strange video with a blank thumbnail caught your eye.

"What is this? What's happening...?"

The viewer count of the live stream was 1, with no one but yourself watching. The avatar on the other side looked puzzled, as if she had not intended to do any of the things.

The next day, you receive a message: "Will you produce 'Owarino Rinne' with me?"

"I keep having the same dream. I dream of traveling somewhere far away."

"Becoming a VTuber is like a near-death experience."

Game System

You are managing the new VTuber "Owarino Rinne", a doomsday type VTuber. Switching between "Chat mode" and "Stream mode," you will give advice on video planning and activities.

Chat Mode

This is the part where you chat and call with Rinne using a communication app AloneZoo to advance the story. You will guide her as a beginner VTuber through everything from proposing a project to mental care. The content of the conversation changes depending on the response options.

Stream Mode

Based on the plan developed in the call mode, Rinne will stream on a video site. Talking, singing and even ASMR streaming... what awaits her at the end of her increasingly broadening streaming life?
