“Then let’s keep doing this.

Until we both die.

We’ll keep looking into each other’s eyes.

So, do you

think that Iexist?

Have you ever been asked such a question while playing a game? 

Well, I haven’t.

This is the first time...

Usually, characters in visual novels

exist to gain my favor as the player or to progress the story by solving events.

That’s the general rule. 

The protagonist of this game is quite different.

She constantly questions her own existence

and demands that I prove her existence.

It feels a bit unsettling, like she’s a typical ‘menhera’.

Normally, if it were me?

I’m a human detector for unsettling vibes, so I’d normally distance myself.

But she’s so pretty that I can’t help but follow along.

After all, looks are the reason for everything.

But the funny thing is  this game

isn’t just a visual novel where you flirt with the pretty Lilith 

like this.

We make cakes together,

travel through the RPG world she created,

go on our first date at an amusement park,

and even play doctor,

but she constantly makes me ponder existence and self. 

And so, the beautiful girl in the game

keeps asking meabout existentialism.

At this point, I don’t know if I’m dating her

or auditing an existentialism lecture.

What is it?

Both?

Actually, the questions Lilith asks

immediately bring existentialism to mind.

Jean-Paul Sartre, a representative existentialist philosopher,

believed that humans  are free beings 

who can make their own choices.

The fact that we can freely choose

means we can determine the direction of our own lives,

and he said no one else can do that for us...

...but that sounds boring and academic,

so let’s just remember that I choose my own life.

In that sense, the character Lilith and

this game itself are truly unique.

As mentioned earlier,

characters in games are merely beings

who can only act within the systems

designed by the developers and the roles

assigned to them.

However, Lilith doesn’t hesitate to make meta-statements*

*Meta-statement: Short for ‘metafictional statement’,

it refers to statements made by characters within a fictional work

who are aware they are in a virtual world

or are directed towards a third party such as the author or reader.

and sometimes even breaks through the screen to the outside of the game.

Yet, she keeps entrusting me with questions about existence and self.

Why is she asking me that?

I don’t even know what she’s talking about...

Perhaps Lilith wasn’t trying to

prove her own existence.

Maybe she was asking me, 

what I truly believe to be real.

“For example, let’s say there’s a person named Cheolsu

living about 3km from your house. 

You’ve obviously never met Cheolsu, and

you probably never will in your entire life. 

Between that person, whom you’ll never

even cross paths with in your life,

and me, with whom you’ve shared countless stories.

For you, who do you think

is the more real existence?”

Is Lilith really an existing person?

Of course not.

She’s just a beautiful girl in a game.

But I made cakes with her,

adventured in an RPG world,

went on a date at an amusement park, 

and listened to everything she said.

So, what is reality now?

I just want to think of the place where Lilith is

as reality...

She’s pretty.

Anyway,

between the questions Lilith throws at me and

the game’s ending, which seems to have no end,

I find myself wavering.

But such conflict

actually makes me reflect on who I am

and what I believe to be real.

“Do you remember the first thing we did?

While making strawberry cake, we talked about the perspective

needed to understand the world.

Now you’re reflecting on yourself.

The world is contained within ourselves,

and we can define what this world is

through our own will.

Common sense isn’t absolute truth.

It’s just a concept that can be ignored if necessary.”

Lilith is a game character,

and where she exists is just within the game. 

And where I exist is the real world.

The moment I play this game,

I cross that boundary. 

I genuinely worried about Lilith

and spent time empathizing with her words.

Then, was the time I spent

and the emotions I felt at the time all fake?

“Now it’s time to move on to the final story. 

The final story is a return to zero. 

The question we’ve been putting off since you and Lilith first met.

Does Lilith exist?”

Throughout the game, Lilith asked me

about self, others, relationships, and society.

In the end, it comes back to the initial question:

“So, do you thinkI exist?”

She doesn’t give a definitive objective answer.

Instead, she leaves the choice to me.

Just as I must choose my own life,

the moment to choose how to proceed with the relationship between Lilith and me

finally arrives. 

“With him, my consciousness flew away.

From now on, I will step into a cruel, blood-stained,

unknown tomorrow.”

In my first playthrough,

I chose Lilith’sannihilation.

Even during the amusement park scene, I chose the option

that stated this world is full of malice

and that relying on something inevitably leads to

disappointment.

Honestly,even after choosingannihilation,

I still see the world as such a place.

Choosing that option was perhaps natural. 

Sometimes, even if it means returning to a world where I can’t see an inch ahead and seems imperfect, 

there are moments when I want to believe in my free will. 

Whether Lilith’s world is real

or this place where I am is real, I don’t know.

I don’t even know if there’s a right answer.

But what’s truly important

isn’t figuring out which world is real,

but rather which world

I choose to accept as reality.

The world is contained within me,

meaning I can define what this world is through my own will. 

So, as a member of Stove Crew 3rd term,

I define this world where I am writing this review

as the real world.

Thank you for reading this far.

Game Evaluation Summary:

This is not a one-time game.

Since it’s come to this,

why not enjoy the 'Return to Zero' with Lilith?

She’s pretty...

Hunting and war are worse than other weapons, and there's only one friendly shield, and it's given as a party shield, so it's worse than the front line. Gwongap is terrible, and they don't even patch it. They don't reveal the revamp schedule either. Going silent means telling everyone to quit.

It would be nice if pc experience was improved. I can run Czn very easily on my laptop. I could get 165 fps without issue so it is a shame there is no such option above 60. Borderless window would also enhance the experience. And Im not sure how it could be implemented but controller support would be a nice option too.

How long will you pretend not to know?

The highest level for Bare-handed Mastery is 109.

With the existing large gap with other Masteries, the audacious operation of 'we are working on it, so wait' without any schedule announcement for the bare-handed revamp can only be seen as the Load Nine team having a severe lack of self-awareness.

Load Nine is failing right now.

Please wake up.

'A well-made game. Ruined by its operation' is the reality of the current Load Nine team.

I didn't know it was this kind of game, help me

Once upon a time, there was a peaceful electronic device village...

That village was able to maintain brilliant peace under the strong Keyboard Legion...

But just as light is bright, darkness also deepens. 

Other devices were jealous of the Keyboard Legion.

Thus, the Keyboard Legions were annihilated due to betrayal..

To avenge them, a small keycap begins to move...!

The game we're playing today is Kikikikicap!

I heard many people are tapping keycaps for mental stability these days~

So I tried playing it to relieve stress through a game!

The gameplay is unique and simple!!

When you press a key on the keyboard, bullets are fired in the direction of that key!

Defeat the enemies, acquire various items, and create your own keycap combination

And then punish the traitorous machines!

As you play and obtain various items

Boss monsters appear as if they were waiting 

Somehow familiar controllers...

USB hubs, etc...

Various bosses with unique concepts appear!

If you only look at this, you might think, "What's so difficult about this?"

"You must also press the direction keys with your right hand."

?

For example, if we take the example of 'Bunx' from a similar game, 'Axax', 

Left hand for movement! Right hand for attack! It's set up like this,

but in this game, the right hand has to move and press keys at the same time, 

so when an enemy is on the right, as in the video above, 

it's quite difficult to deal with...

Besides this, there were a few inconvenient elements, such as a lack of tutorials.

(I realized this place, where you unlock other items, while writing this post.)

Overall

I started with a light heart, but I enjoyed it more than I expected.

The unique concepts using keyboards and peripherals were fun, and I felt like I was constantly drawn in.

The various items also add a small element of fun, 

making me feel like I had truly entered the world of keyboards during the game.

However,  perhaps because it's still in Early Access,

there were some inconvenient aspects in terms of usability and control.

Still, if you're someone like me who enjoys roguelike games, 

I think it's definitely worth trying!

Thank you for reading the review, and I'll be back with a more informative review next time!

Thank you!

패치가 있었습니다?


5월 7일 이후 옆동네 패치 내역이 있는 패치는 어제(15일) 있었던 아래의 패치입니다



시스템 업데이트

  • 전투 로그에 가해진 피해가 외경 타입인지 내경 타입인지 명확하게 표시됩니다.
  • 초식이 아닌 아이템 효과로 피해를 줄 때, 해당 아이템 칸에서 숫자가 튀어 오르는 연출이 추가되었습니다.
  • 맵에서 적이 출현하는 위치가 플레이어와 더 가깝게 조정되었습니다.
  • 개인 대전에 '좌우 교환' 버튼이 추가되었으며, 전투 종료 후 '재대전' 버튼이 신설되었습니다. (동일한 덱으로 새로운 전투를 시작하되, 랜덤 시드가 달라지므로 다른 결과가 나올 수 있습니다.) 또한 전투 종료 후에도 기존 덱이 그대로 유지됩니다.
  • 등급 및 점수가 '무림전설 9999'에 도달하면 등급 점수가 숨겨지며, 이후로는 점수가 차감되지 않습니다.

신규 아이템

  • 음식을 구걸하는 백가구 (개방 내공): 음식을 발동할 때마다 협객과 초식에 추가 피해 및 연격 단수를 부여합니다.
  • 자비로운 뱃사공의 이야기 (아미파 내공): 누적 획득한 회춘 중첩 수에 비례해 치유량이 증가하며, 자비 상태를 벗어날 때 1회 치유 효과를 획득합니다.
  • 무료 우산 (통용 장신구): 다른 아이템이 '무구' 상태를 획득할 수 있도록 돕습니다.

아이템 조정

  • 금창약 / 강력 금창약 / 계화주: 치유량 낭비를 방지하기 위해, 현재 체력이 50% 이상인 상태에서 회복이 발동되면 즉시 발동을 중지합니다.
  • 폭우 이화침: 설명 문구가 기존 '100% 확률로 연격'에서 '반드시 연격'으로 변경되었으며, 천기법장과 같이 확률에 영향을 받지 않는 아이템의 효과를 정상적으로 받습니다. (기능은 이전과 동일하며 설명 및 텍스트 매커니즘만 명확하게 수정되었습니다.)
  • '무구' 메커니즘 변경: 효과가 기존 '봉인 저항'에서 '상대로부터의 봉인 저항'으로 조정되었습니다.
  • 자하신공: 기존 '양의 진기 2 소모 시 최대 체력 +10, 공격력 +1' 효과가 '양의 진기 1 반환, 공격력 +3'으로 변경되었습니다.
  • 고기전병: 쿨타임이 5.6초에서 5초로 감소했습니다. 전투 시작 시 '집중 2'를 획득하며, 반진 제거 수치가 1에서 2로 증가했습니다.
  • 태극신공: 쿨타임이 5.2초에서 7초로 증가했습니다. 획득하는 보호막이 2에서 3으로 증가했으며, '받는 피해 -5%' 효과가 '반격 피해 +35%'로 변경되었습니다.
  • 금강불괴신공: 기존 '아이템에 따른 치유 활성화 및 강화 획득' 효과가 '초식 공격을 받은 후: 받는 피해 -10% (최대 -60%, 초당 10%씩 감소)' 효과로 변경되었습니다.
  • 구양신경 (리메이크): 양의 진기를 1 소모할 때마다 약화 상태를 1단계 저항하며, 50%의 고정 확률로 한독에 저항합니다.
  • 백독연봉공: 기존 '적의 중독 1단계마다 암기 피해 +2' 효과가 '중독 1단계를 부여할 때마다 암기 피해 +2'로 변경되었습니다.
  • 현명한고공: 기존 '자신이 한독을 부여받을 때 회춘 1 획득' 효과가 '자신이 임의의 약화 상태를 부여받을 때, 음의 진기 1을 소모하여 회춘 1 획득'으로 변경되었습니다.
  • 현명동귀수: 기존 '사파 아이템마다 속도 +5%' 효과가 '아군 또는 적의 회춘, 출혈, 중독이 발동될 때, 본 초식 진행도 15% 추진' 효과로 변경되었습니다.
  • 멸절비신검: 기존 '회춘 최대 5단계 소모, 단계마다 이번 피해 +35' 효과가 '회춘 1단계를 누적 획득할 때마다 피해 +8' 효과로 변경되었습니다.
  • 낭아펜던트: 차지하는 칸 수가 4칸에서 2칸으로 감소했고, 별(★) 수가 4개에서 6개로 증가했습니다.
  • 북명귀해공: 양의 진기 흡수 상한이 10에서 20으로 증가했으며, 쿨타임이 4.3초에서 4초로 감소했습니다.
  • 곤팽인기보: '공격력 30 증가' 효과가 '받는 피해 -20%' 효과로 변경되었습니다.
  • 자골전액정: 부가 내경 피해 상한이 60에서 150으로 증가했습니다.
  • 옥란향고 / 요대응향고: 쿨타임이 12초에서 9초로 감소했습니다.

문제 수정

  • 전투 로그에서 초식 타입 피해가 보호막에 흡수될 때, 가해진 피해값이 흡수 전 수치로 표기되던 오류를 수정했습니다. (수정 후에는 100의 피해가 흡수되면 '0 피해 가함(100 흡수됨)'으로 올바르게 표시됩니다.)
  • 초식 흡혈 효과 적용 후, 체력바가 늘어나는 시각 연출이 지연되던 문제를 수정했습니다.
  • 일부 아이템(자골단적, 진팔방, 잔반, 고해승복, 천년한옥침)의 확률 수치가 실시간으로 갱신되지 않거나 0으로 표시되던 출력 오류를 수정했습니다. (기능은 정상 작동하고 있었습니다.)
  • 여러 개의 타구봉이 동시에 존재할 때, 치명타 후 기절 효과가 중복으로 발동하지 않던 문제를 수정했습니다. 이제 기절은 동시에 중복 발동할 수 있으며 기절 연계 아이템도 중복 구동되지만, 기절의 총 지속 시간은 누적되어 연장되지 않습니다.
  • 반진권법의 반진 획득 확률이 정확하게 표시되지 않던 표기 오류를 수정했습니다.
  • 아이템의 별(★) 표시가 가끔 사라지거나 위치가 어긋나던 그래픽 오류를 수정했습니다.
  • 대결장에서 동일한 덱 코드를 이용해 중복으로 도전할 수 있었던 문제를 수정했습니다.
  • 타인의 덱 기록 화면에서 필터링을 적용한 상태로 새로고침을 누르면 발생하던 표시 오류를 수정했습니다.
  • 일부 오역 및 번역 문제를 수정했습니다.

5.15 버전 대규모 업데이트가 적용되었습니다! 신규 무공 추가와 대대적인 밸런스 최적화, 그리고 다양한 버그 수정으로 여러분의 강호 여정이 더욱 부드럽고 흥미진진해졌습니다. 이번 패치가 마음에 드신다면 긍정적인 평가와 리뷰로 협객 여러분의 따뜻한 응원을 부탁드립니다. 앞으로도 꾸준한 최적화와 알찬 콘텐츠 업데이트로 보내주신 성원에 보답하겠습니다!



다만

해당 현재 스토브에 이뤄진 패치는 위의 패치가 아닌 전에 이뤄진 핫픽스였거나 패치가 제대로 적용이 안된 것 같습니다

아이템 수정치를 대조해보니 여전히 패치 이전 상태의 수치고 새로 추가된 아이템도 아직 없네요

조만간 패치가 적용되긴 하겠지만 ...

쨌든 어제 스토브에 진행된 패치는 옆동네 최신 패치와는 관계가 없는 것 같습니다
