Newcomers to that gaming scene might need a little extra incentive before giving Goodbye Volcano High a shot. KO_OP’s game will be an easy pick-up for those who are familiar with the visual novel genre. Nevertheless, this feels like a proper step in the right direction towards a truly hands-on animated series. While the demo did have some synching issues, these look to be easily fixable by the time the game’s launch. It feels like you’re playing a real interactive cartoon, with the characters moving and conversing in ways that look like a high-end program. The thing that impresses me the most about Goodbye Volcano High is its visual presentation. Mess up too much, and Fang’s friends won’t seem impressed with their latest musical contribution. Much like the Hatsune Miku games, pressing the right buttons and extending your joystick in the right direction will help to make Fang’s song come out as its true self. In the demo, you are given the opportunity to play Fang’s song to their friends. But the better interactive aspects involve Fang’s quest for fame. Much of KO_OP’s game has players attempting to make choices in dialogue, with hopefully the right response leading to better outcomes. This leads them to wonder what they truly desire in life, and if their forever friends really will last a lifetime.
However, with their bandmates and fellow seniors looking towards the future, it would appear that Fang is the only one coasting on a dream of rock & roll stardom. The narrative follows Fang, who is doing their best to get their group VVorm Drama in the Battle of the Bands. Nevertheless, even this impending doom can’t stop teenage angst and growing pains from rearing their ugly heads.Īt PAX East, the opening scenes of Goodbye Volcano High were on display for eager players to experience. Well…to be fair, it’s the last year ever, as there’s a meteorite coming down to destroy every living creature walking on Planet Earth. Rather, it’s a narrative-driven story about the last year of high school.
