What is ghostpia?
“残酷的可爱和忧郁的暴力,
一部可以在电脑上看的电影”
“Denshi”——数字图形小说艺术风格。
Ghostpia 的视觉效果融合了温暖、精致的艺术,适合带有故障和噪音效果的插图儿童读物,营造出一种奇怪的怀旧视觉小说氛围。
“Denshi”在日语中是“电子”或“数字”的意思,这就是电子图画小说。
所有故事,没有废话
没有快速发生的事件,没有分支场景。我们竭尽全力制作尽可能最好的故事,以便您可以像欣赏一部好电影一样享受它。
故事
一座小镇被大雪与世隔绝,位于终点站附近,荒芜不堪。
有一个小镇,晚上鬼魂充斥街道。
但他们并不是真正的鬼魂。他们是不朽的。由于无法死去,生命永无休止,他们开始这样称呼自己。
他们说这是一个理想的小镇。真正的鬼魂乌托邦。
“但真的是这样吗?你真的可以称这个地方为乌托邦吗?”
这就是小夜子,这就是她的困境。
如你所见,小夜子是镇上唯一一个不真正属于那里的人。
一直以来,她都与神秘的新面孔夜同住一个房间。
纱夜子最渴望回到自己的家乡。
出发,越过那深不可测的茫茫雪原,越过无人曾去过的地方。
她只能梦想的家就在那里。
能够记住她忘记的东西:她最珍视的东西。
那是她的梦想。
“在我的梦里,我可以出去。在我的梦想中,我可以融入其中。”
“Cruel cuteness and melancholy violence
A movie you can read on PC”
“Denshi” – The digital graphic novel artstyle.
ghostpia’s visuals mix warm, delicate art that would be fit for an illustrated children’s book with glitch and noise effects, for a strangely nostalgic visual novel vibe.
“Denshi” is Japanese for “electrical” or “digital”, and this is what a denshi graphic novel is.
All story, no fluff
There are no quick time events, no branching scenarios. We’ve put all of our efforts into making the best possible story we could, so that you could enjoy it like you would a good movie.
Story
Isolated from the world by snow, a town lies barren near a terminal station.
There lies a town where ghosts flood the streets at night.
But they aren’t really ghosts. They are immortal. Unable to die, with their neverending lives, they took to referring to themselves like that.
They say this is an ideal town. A true utopia for ghosts.
“But is it really? Can you really call this place a utopia?”
This is Sayako, and that is her plight.
For you see, Sayako is the only one in town who doesn’t truly belong there.
All the while she is sharing a room with the mysterious new face, Yoru.
More than anything in the world, Sayako longs to return to her hometown.
To set off beyond the unfathomable vast desert of snow, beyond where nobody has ever gone.
To the home she can only dream is out there.
To be able to remember what she has forgotten: the thing she holds the most dear.
That is her dream.
“In my dreams, I can get out. In my dreams, I can fit in.”
