Hatoful Boyfriend Steam Release - MiS - 09-08-2014
Code:
Time to cast aside assumptions that gaming's genres are a limited, somewhat homogeneous whole and embrace the new breed. Brace yourself for Hatoful Boyfriend, then, a title offering interspecies flirting at a school for gifted pigeons that has welcomed a sole human student. Yours is the role of that mysterious woman, in a world where birds reign supreme. And work in cafes. And have their own gangs.
It's all absurd of course, but the game positively revels in absurdity. This English translation of a cult Japanese release takes the form of the visual novel, a genre built entirely from text and near-static images. To interact involves much reading, a little decision-making and ample opportunities to romance all manner of winged creatures. As such, Hatoful Boyfriend might, justifiably, be said to occupy an extreme niche, but it is so eccentric, self-aware and hilarious that it's utterly delightful to play.Source: http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2014/sep/07/hatoful-boyfriend-review-pigeon-english-find-love
In case you missed the memo, Hatoful Boyfriend is an otome visual novel indie game developed by PideoNation Inc. The goal of the game, like any other dating sim game, is to traverse regular school life while dealing with teenage drama and hopefully, find someone to share your love with by the time you graduate, receiving an ending depending on the choices and paths you picked throughout the game. Oh, and you're the only human female among a school of pigeons. Did I forget to mention that?
Buy it on Steam today!

I own the game, but haven't downloaded it. This thread is my excuse for downloading it onto my HDD.

I heard it gets pretty dark, surprisingly. Tell me how it is after you two play it.

I would expect it to get dark. It's about pidgeons + pidgeons are shitting all over all places all the time -> there will be poisoned food!

Oh yes, at least in one route. That gets pretty dark. But I can't say anything about that. It's a very weird game.
