A downloadable visual novel for Windows, macOS, and Linux

Mira, a young historian, travels to a small museum of technology to study her idol's magnum opus: a robot that can feel like a person. In the final days of her visit, she learns something that turns her research on its head — and brings her closer to the robot than she ever thought she'd go.

  • ~4k words of uncomfortable yearning and stumbling miscommunication!
  • Robots! Lesbians! Perhaps...lesbian robots?
  • Art by the wonderfully talented WREM!

Made for the TOXIC YURI VN JAM.

This was soooo interesting. It felt like such a neat little character study. It was really interesting that Mira withheld her actual interest in Ada from Irene - it makes me wonder if, on some level, she understands that she's being parasocial and unhealthy about her hero worship.

i’m glad you found it interesting, thank you for reading!

A really interesting little VN! I loved the art, and the world-building is so cool... Mira trying her best to understand Ada through old websites and fragments, her insatiable curiosity about her, all culminating in that ending just works so well... I'm not going to be able to get that out of my head, honestly. And choosing to simultaneously highlight both perspectives on the game's climax was such an inspired choice!

What an interesting little character study this was~  Or, really, it's a nested character study: Studying and learning about Mira as she studies and learns about Ada—and does so quite intimately, at that, heh.

While I'm sure my curiosity couldn't hold a candle to Mira's, I found myself wondering intently: What would have happened, were she able to power that old robot on safely?  What could it have told her about the past, about Ada, and about the time they spent together—and just how close would it have let Mira get~?  But of course, it's precisely because the robot must stay off that Mira's curiosity and yearning is as potent as it is, heheheheh~

Very nice work on this VN (doubly so considering it was made in Godot)!
