【Game Introduction Part 5】
This time let's take a look at Dr.Kouzuki's early design!
There are not much changes with his clothes in the final version,
but there were various draft designs of his face and hair style!
Ultimately "F-B" was used, but maybe "G" might have looked more like a real mad scientist...
【Game Introduction Part 4:Doctor Kouzuki】
This time we will introduce Doctor Kouzuki, who supports Reika throughout the game.
He is a scientist with a loose screw, but a nice middle-aged man. (as long as he stays quiet)
Name: Koutarou Kouzuki (上月 コウタロウ)
Birthday: May 23
Age: 46
The very person who turned Reika into a cyborg.
He is a talented human scientist, who was abducted by the robot army and forced to work as a "Brain slave".
They acknowlaged his abilities so saved him from being brainwashed, but he is a complete mad scientist from the beginning.
He is a carefree man, only interested in science and technology.
Reika has been pushed around by Kouzuki's weird character in the game.
What kind of crazy things will he do or say next?
MAJOR UPDATE "LABORATORY" !!

【Game Introduction Part 3: Reika's Face】
Did you notice the blue lines appearing on Reika's face?
They only show up when her emotions run high. (e.g. when she's burning with anger)
When playing the game, why not take a look at her face and see if the lines are appearing or not?
Major Update Announcement !

【Game Introduction Part 2】
Reika was turned into a cyborg by Dr. Kouzuki.
The most unique part of her body is her robotized left arm.
Accoring to Kouzuki, it creates an electrowave from her amplified brain waves and bioelectricity, which excites the Nanomachines that exists in the soil and atmosphere, then adding moment to the assembled crystals and so on……
Anyway, it means she can transform this arm freely like tentacles, and create various objects using debris. Convenient, isn't it?
