Many thanks to everyone who was eagerly waiting for the release, we are sorry that it was delayed due to problems with the release of the new build. The problem has now been resolved. https://store.steampowered.com/app/2290390/Guilty_Parade_Episode_4/
FAQ:
Is this a sequel to Episode 4: The Underside of the Future? No, this is an alternate route after Episode 3. Your decisions in Episodes 1-3 affect which route you end up on (the Underside of the Past or The Underside of the Future). Do I have to buy Episode 4: The Underside of the Past separately? It comes bundled with Episode 4: The Underside of the Future. If you already have Episode 4 in your library, there is no need to purchase this route separately, just update the game. Attention! Due to the engine and code major update, some saves may show an error. To avoid it try to load an earlier save file and skip the read dialogs (use Shift + > to fast skip). You can report a bug to our mail: NozoriGames@gmail.com. We apologize for the inconvenience and hope for your understanding! Thanks for your support and enjoy! Noasaki and Orizori

We have been thinking for a very long time and finally have decided. The game will be divided into 5 episodes that will be released as they are done. An episodic release will simplify our work greatly, alleviate a financial burden and will provide you with updates. The 2nd episode will be released only after completing the work on a draft of the common route, story logic and approval of all game mechanics. Besides, episodicity will allow us to expand the script, write more additional scenes, increase the number of CGs and improve the quality of the game in general. The downside is the game engine (Ren'Py), which can break save files with an update of the game build (although we will try hard to avoid it). Good points: [olist]
We, Nozori Games, are developing an interactive visual novel with point-and-click elements Guilty Parade (GP). We would like to tell about the plot and the game development.
The desire to create our own game appeared a long time ago, but the concrete idea of GP came across our mind about 3 years ago and finally formed in mid-2018. In the beginning, it was planned as a classic short ADV visual novel. But working on the plot we decided that the story required scope both in events and characters.
This story is primarily about people. The world they live in is not as simple as it might seem at first glance, and the characters have their secrets.
So what about the universe of GP? It is an alternate post-apocalyptic world in the beginning of the 20th century. Due to the environmental disaster associated with the pole shift, most of the glaciers had melted, so vast areas of the earth ended up underwater. A war broke out between the survived people about which the main character Nemo does not remember anything. You have to solve some riddles to disclose the biggest intrigue of the visual novel.
We did not try to make the characters ideal, on the contrary, they have many weaknesses, partly comic, partly tragic. Everyone has their own quirk, their habits and demeanour are unpredictable. Hope you will like someone!
Playing the game, you decide which side in the military conflict to support. At the moment, there are 3 routes in the game, but the events based on your choices (including the revealing of the characters backgrounds) vary greatly. You can learn everything about their biography and personality if you show great curiosity and persistence. We would also like to note that sometimes your mistakes help to discover secrets and solve some riddles faster.
Last year we also released the demo version (about 3+ hours of play). Feel free to download it on Steam!
Our small team consists of only 2 people:
- Noasaki a scriptwriter, an environmental artist;
- Orizori a character artist, a programmer.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
2019 was an important year and taught us a lot. We are very grateful to these kind people who help us to share the word.
Key events and the totals of 2019:
- The demo release on Steam, Itch, GameJolt;
- Demo updates (2 times);
- 3200+ downloads;
- Fan arts and moral support;
- Many solved problems (organizational and technical);
- Constant work on the project and our skills.
Today we will answer frequently asked questions (FAQ). If we did not cover something, you can ask in the comments.
FAQ:
Will Guilty Parade be ported to Android / iOS?
It is not planned yet, we are focused on PC (Windows, Linux and Mac).
Will there be romantic routes in the game? Will the background of the characters be revealed?
There will be no romantic routes but with your wish and perseverance you can get to know each character better and find out his / her background.
When do you plan to release the game?
This question is not easy to answer. The longer the script becomes, the more distinctly we understand that more and more content is needed. We will try to finish work on the game in 2020, but our calculations are not always true and real life dictates the terms. We are thinking now about a different format of the release (for example, releasing the game in episodes).
How many hours will it take to complete the game?
We estimate that it will take at least 20 hours to complete the game, but it depends on the players speed of reading, getting additional scenes, etc. The whole script will be more than 230 thousand words (articles, book clippings, etc. that are to be found in the game do not count).
How many endings / routes are there?
We will not reveal the number of endings in the near future. Three routes are planned: two of them are the main, and one is additional. Each route reveals different parts of the plot, and the player decides which one is true. Efforts will be required to get an additional route which will be available after completing any ending of the two main routes. There are no bad ends (like sudden death due to an incorrect choice), your choices lead to different events (as you may have noticed in the demo if you played it more than once).
Will there be new features and mechanics in the game (a gallery, mini-games, etc.)?
A gallery and additional bonuses will appear certainly. We plan new mechanics (for example, inventory), but so far this is being discussed.
Thank you for attention!

Nemo. A guy with amnesia. Under the Commander’s protection, he joins a squad of young soldiers to spy and then investigate a crime.

Find clues, make your choices and follow the story to find the culprit.

The characters have a lot of unique features (both comedic and dramatic), habits and their behaviour is unpredictable.
► A lot of meaningful choices affecting scenes you get
Nemo will have to not only investigate the crime but also learn to live in unknown world and decide which side he is on in the military conflict.
► Beautiful arts and atmospheric gameplay
