This Starry Midnight We Make Demo

This Starry Midnight We Make is a puzzle game that might require users to have some knowledge of the Japanese culture and mythology.

It’s difficult to describe what This Starry Midnight We Make actually is, and the developers have the same problem. They say that “a celestial growth simulation game” and we all know that only means one thing. This is something that different from anything else that’s out there that needs a new description for the gameplay as none of the existing ones fits.

That’s not a bad thing. Not being able to categorize properly the game that you made usually means that it’s something unique. On the other hand, unique can be good or bad, depending on what the outcome of the game is. It’s not easy to say if This Starry Midnight We Make is an interesting game or not, and that consideration will only have to be done by the users after they played it.

The name of the game is a direct reference to the famous painting “The Starry Night” by Vincent van Gogh, which also happens to be one of the most well-known paintings in the world. How is this western painting related to a game made by Japanese developers that’s about a simulated universe, that remains to be determined?

Unless you have an understanding of the Japanese culture, you’re going to have a very hard time understanding what’s happening on the screen. For the most part, This Starry Midnight We Make is more like a visual novel, which means hat you get to talk with a lot of people. And I mean a lot.

When you’re not talking, you’re at the Star-seeing Basin creating stars. Don’t ask what’s the connection, as I honestly don’t know. The second part of the game is about creating various type of stars, which have to be obtained from different sources. You only have star seeds, and if you want to get another star, they will have to evolve under certain conditions.

This Starry Midnight We Make is a really bizarre game that might appeal to people who like the Japanese culture and want to experience more of it.
