Stories on Tuesday - Fatal Twelve - Part 1


The new Stories on Tuesday game is the PlayStation 4 Disc version of Fatal Twelve from Sekai Project and aiueoKompany.

Part 1 made an explosive first impression and was interesting throughout. i'm not used to the main characters in these sort of visual novel games having so much inner monologues. i do like the art and style i've seen so far and the music has been a nice complement to it. sometimes in these games the characters have few art so they're often showing an emotion but saying another. here in Fatal Twelve it's been refreshing to see some subtle changes in the character's expressions. for me, what was interesting about the end of this part was how it recontextualised earlier bits of the video in such a way that my assumptions as to what was happening were way off.

Stories on Tuesday - Loopers - Part 1


This Stories on Tuesday game is Loopers, also known as ルーパーズ in Japan. i'm playing the Switch version of it, but there are other versions. It was developed by Key and this version was published by Prototype. I'm playing the Japanese version of the game so the audio is in Japanese but there are English Subtitles.

In this Part 1, i included the developer and publisher logos at the start of the game and i also included the music video. In this part i also did nothing with the story. it's just playing out and for nearly the first hour i did nothing but watch. 

I'm not saying that's a bad thing. so far this is the fourth game in this series and the fourth different way of telling a story. but i hope in Part 2 to play more of a role. But Part 1 was good so far. i am hooked into the story and eager to see where it goes next.
