The art posted here comes from Shen YH, who has created a watercolor-like art imagining Made in Abyss as a video game. I’m not sure what the purpose is behind this, but if it’s concept art for an actual game, that would be awesome.

These images apparently imagine Reg, the robot boy, as the player character, and depict him in some of the most iconic scenes from the TV series, now with health bars and maps and such.

An Archaeologist Plays Indiana Jones, Part 7

I haven’t had much time for this lately, but I was reading Plato’s Meno this morning, and that reminded me of the fictional lost dialogue of Plato from Indiana Jones and the Fate of Atlantis, and one thing led to another, and so here we are. I took a few more minutes to continue the play-through. Enjoy.

Girl Got Game II: The ‘Revolutionary Girl Utena’ Rewatch, Part 8.5, Addendum

Yesterday’s post on the 1998 Revolutionary Girl Utena visual novel for the Sega Genesis is quite popular for some reason, so let me add a few more links of interest.

I have located exactly one walkthrough for the game, presented by Rouroni Kaji on GameFAQS. It’s a text file that briefly outlines the different game paths and lists what you need to accomplish each of the game’s nine possible endings. It’s a brief outline, with no images or description, that’s meant to be used in conjunction with the game, so it’s more-or-less unintelligible by itself.

There is also a playthrough of the English fansub by Geek Sentai on YouTube. It’s divided into parts; I post only the first here.

It’s not exactly exciting to watch; visual novels are sort of like adventure games minus everything that makes them even slightly interesting.
