adventure Ikimashou! [Slice-of-Life] [Adventure] [Friendship] [Real-world Setting]

umineko · June 18

Hello! I'm umineko-chan! I'm currently the only developer & artist for this novel. It doesn't have to be that way, as we are searching for an artist to draw our character's sprites and CG !

Ikimashou!/Let's Go! is a visual novel set in the wonderful land of Canada, more specifically in the cities of Montréal, Toronto, & Vancouver! Set off on the ultimate journey across the North, and make lots of friends along the way! It'll be a blast!

You play as Zinnia Jackson, a determined & hardworking person residing in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, who moved here around 1 year ago. Life is good, adventures are plenty, friends are few but close, and your job is great! Things keep getting in your way, though. School, parents, curfews (*cough cough*), who knows?! Longing for a happy and independent life, you head out to explore the rest of Canada and what it has to offer. Maybe make a couple friends along the way?
