Made a Magical Girl Visual Novel from the Mascot's Perspective!
Hi! So, a couple years ago, I made a visual novel called Wake Up Magical Girl. It's about becoming the best Magical Girl ever in a dystopian world being aided by your very own emotionally-constipated magical familiar — for as long as you possibly can. It's very pink, lol
I updated it a couple of weeks ago and wanted to share it out for more to play!
- It's about 30k words, so 2-3hrs depending on reading speed.
- It has some stat-rising elements that affects the endings you get plus the battles that your player character faces
- Absolutely adorable, original art from the sprites to the CGs to balance its dark themes
- Magical Girl easter eggs sprinkled all around!
I took some inspirations from Madoka if it wasn't obvious, haha. I thought it would rather interesting to see what if things were played out from like Kyuubey's perspective. But, this time backed up with a conscience of sorts. I was also inspired by Needy Streamer Overdose for aesthetics and Takopi's Original Sin since that too focuses on a mascot-like character.
I don't consider my game as incredibly dark as my inspirations, tbh, but it still touches on dark themes just for your awareness! (Be sure to check out the content warning on the game page for more detail.)
It is completely free to play on PC, Mac, and even web browser! Though, I recommend the former two for better performance.
