After 108 days of development, "Gears Story" is finally released!

For those who haven't purchased it yet, those who have already purchased it and are about to play, and even those who have already finished it, there's something I want to share.

Conclusion: The price of this game will not increase

This game includes an "Afterword," and it seems that the way I wrote it was a bit confusing, leading to some misunderstandings among some players.

I wrote the following in the Afterword:

The next installment, "Shoe-Straings Story," will of course share the same universe and is expected to be more than ten times larger in scale. Accordingly, we plan to revise the pricing, and it will take some time before release.

This does NOT mean that "Gears Story" is scheduled for a price increase.

It simply means, "While we released this work at $0.99, the lowest price possible on Steam, the next work, 'Shoe-Strings Story,' will be a bit more expensive."The price of "Gears Story" will continue to be offered at $0.99.

I apologize for any confusion my unclear wording may have caused!!

That being said, enjoy the game!

Based on the store page, this game might seem like a serious novel game.

However, I intended to structure the story so that it could be enjoyed by anyone, much like a pop Hollywood movie.

It's sprinkled with humor throughout, interspersed with serious developments, and ends with a surprising climax.

It's a shame to just stack it!

For those still hesitating to buy or considering stacking it, I'll give a small spoiler to nudge you: in this game, there's a scene where the protagonist

trips on hallucinogenic drugs

!

There are no direct sexual depictions, violent scenes, or grotesque portrayals, so everyone can play with peace of mind. I would be delighted if you could try playing it at least once.

Once again, I sincerely hope you enjoy my work, "Gears Story".
