I haven't gotten every ending yet but WOOH- this game is amazing in story and characters! Ray was very fascinating, and a very tragic guy. We don't even know if he had an actual mom, since he was raised in the lab since birth and PR lies so much. He saw the worst of humanity constantly, and was expected to represent the best of it, even when he killed Heroes and Villains. 

Double is a red flag, and his encounters with Ray's worst parts definitely impacted him(he's still abusive, no excuses there). And Haley's lore is so intriguing too, she clearly has experience with Heroes. Especially back in the rise of Heroes. 

Of course, there are a lot of highlights of Ray's own views. He stalked Player in their Villain arc, and never reported them. He grew up around terrible people who were labeled Heroes(Iron Sheriff or whatever his name was... yikes), with constant negativity like that, it's no wonder he's naturally... resigned to everything. 

Whether he met Player or not, Ray would've gotten tired eventually. And let humanity die to Crawlers, or destroyed it himself. It's like he said, Player let him dream of being more. 

Also, he has mind reading, laser eyes, telekinesis, fire(I REALLY think he's the one who set fire to the apartment after his fight with Luke), poison immunity, super strength, flight, maybe more that I haven't seen yet. That's seven people, that he's devoured into his orbit, with abilities. 

No wonder Double dipped immediately, he knows Ray would've taken his ability, and even Player has noted how Double has used his teleportation brutally... Oh, and sorry for writing so much. The game was awesome!

Wow do I love Ray...he's amazing.

Its a good thing that Ray is fictional, dunno if he can really handle whats been going inside my mind the whole game.

this is so FUCKING good

(+2)

I need to say this bc i cant't forget this game, I love love love love love love love love this visual novel and your work :)

(+2)

Obsessssssssssed!!!! I loved everything about it! ๐Ÿ˜

I love this but i wanna know when is the full game coming out if there is more?? :3

(+1)

Nope, this is a stand alone game :) . I am currently working on my other game 'Favor'.

Ohhhh- Dang.

(+2)

I love this story so much; it's unique. Everything about it was excellent, from the marvelous music to the beautiful art, and the writing of the characters, especially Ray, was truly captivating. I enjoyed it.

(+1)

Hi! I love this game soo much, the love interests are so very loveable, but I seem to be having a hard time getting all the achievements :(
Even though I've done all the endings and read through the after stories, I'm still a bit confused because I have two achievements left!

(+1)

How to get ray ending? I have tried everything i followed walk throughs yet i still dont get he save me option 

Like, you did everything, everything? I'm not sure if it matters, but I made sure to not pick answers that would give anyone else's affection points, unless there was no avoiding it 

10/10 omg, binary star being my first completed VN is such a good start. I love how crazy Ray turns out to be, but you can't help but feel that ounce of pity when you learn more. I fear i need this story injected into my veins, I don't think I can live without it atp. 

Ray is SO ๐Ÿ˜ป I ABSOLUTELY LOVE HIM AND THIS GAME

(+1)

I want more from this game ๐Ÿ˜ญ like it literally has a chokehold on me ๐Ÿ˜ญ

(+2)

Love this game, first ever game I complete all the achievements it was so fun !!

I wonder what happened after for Ray if we choose the window or the front door (in his route) ? At the end, for the front door, it say something about light in the doorway so idk. 

About the other death ends, he mentions how he wanted to watch us die. To 'strip himself of his last Humanity' or something like that, even though he hesitated. I'd imagine he'd just carry out his plan as usual no matter what. And the light is just the fire surging in, I assume, it seems to be coming from there anyway.

I was also curious on how exactly a random flame started- I'm assuming Ray started it. Double is too... tense around Ray to risk it(valid even if he's a prick). And Ray was EXTREMELY quick to saving us at the balcony, even if he has powers- we know it still takes time given by how he carried us away from the Crawler. I remember he attacked Luke(Blaze) and the social media said Luke was fine but... if there's anything to learn, don't trust PR. I bet he really did kill Luke, took his power, and he set our place on fire so he could make a decision based on our choice- be our Hero, or let humanity die off.

wondering when the next update is coming??


I hope its soon. please continue this game

the game is finished!! the dev is currently working on "favor" 

OH MY FREAKING QH JBQHDB@DUUID@ UID@ UI@DUI @UAIJ I LOVE THIS GAME SO FREAKING MUCH I CANT EVEN PUT IT INTO WORDSS!!!! I LOVE IT I LOVE IT I LOVE  ALL OF YOUR WORKS ITS JUST...BEAUTIFUL!!! TYSMMM FOR MAKING THIS!! ITS FREAKING AMAZING!!!

(+2)

WAUIHWHAAJJAJAAJAJHJAHAHHA THE FANFICSSSS HELP

FAV PARTT

(1 edit) (+3)

I followed the Guide but I still can't get the option "Save Me Ray" I'm not sure how many affection points I need for Ray to get that option huhuhuhu :'(

(+1)

hello hi im sorry for not answering your question but could you tell me where did you find the guide? i can't seem to find it 

(1 edit)

its in the download part of the game page, i read it too, but i havent been able to get the ray's ending either D: (edit) ok i guess the only thing i did different (using the guide) is choose not to ask him to sleep with me?? bdshfhjgdsh i finally got the "save me" option at the end

alright!! thank you so much for answering and for your help!! c: <33

I figured it out by watching a walkthrough and basically you have to sprint towards the balcony, Ray gives his little emo monologue, then you say "That's cruel", take his hand, and do "Save me, Ray." I couldn't figure it out alone either bc I'd get scared when he'd start yapping about not being human and even us seeing him as a monster blah blah blah

(+4)

god this game has me in a chokehold still

(+2)

devs obviously have a thing for Homelander. nothing wrong with that though this is a great game!

Very W game. Really have a huge addiction to the co worker Miles. very relatable. (i think thats his name.) NOOO, my addiction is Hailey...heh

i need a guide/necesito una guia ;-;

I've been waiting for an excellent VN to come out for a while, and this game is exactly that. Exactly what I've been waiting for.  To start, fantastic story that keeps you on your toes, and twists that just scratch the right part of my brain. I've also never been able to relate to an MC so much before in all the VNs that I have played. I loved this MC. I could connect with them because I could truly see myself in them. The way they think, talk, interact with others, inner thoughts. Making it easy to connect with the rest of the characters in the story. 

Second, the art was phenomenal, with so much detail and the art just looked beautiful, especially the CGs, (I think that's what they are called) The lighting, the shading, coloring, just hit right.

Third, all the characters are so well thought out, I have to say, every character has so much to them. So much that we get to learn and witness about each character. See who they are when it comes down to it. Even feel sad for the characters, like in the extra story with Binary Star. The MC gets a binary star more than Ray. He put up a facade and that sucked but it was good writing.  (Ray is my fav, I kind of have a weakness for blonde tired dudes, even though I've told myself I don't) I loved the take on heroes as well in this story, there is no way that the government would have a "no killing" rule. It just wouldn't make sense; our government would just use heroes as "glorified war weapons" as said so perfectly in the stories. 

This experience was awesome, loved the work you put into this in every aspect. It might sound weird but thank you, this game was so amazing. 

i just finished everything about this game and omfg IM SO ATTACHED. I LOVED EVERYHTING!! IM SO IN LOVE WITH RAY ITS NOT EVEN FUNNY

(+3)

I want to start saying thanks to the developers and everyone involved in making this game, because it's going to be the best one I played this month. I didn't expected to be sucked on the story and the universe so quickly, wanting to get to know every character, since everyone had their own agenda, personalities and dreams, even the MC (That shine in a lot of moments, I loved her/him/them during Ray's route and the after stories, I mean, the MC saying "I don't want oblivion, I don't want silence. I don't want a greater purpose. I want you. I want to be with you' ? Absolute cinema! If you guys ever wrote a book or anything similar I would buy it, just take my money lol. But truly, I love the twists that can be done with the idea of superheroes and that being a profession, which can lead to a 'prodigy' hero being raised as a lamb send to the slaughter and seeing how it was affecting Ray all of this time was so...interesting and tragic at the same time, as he didn't knew where his persona as the 'Binary star hero' started and ended.

But anyways, here's me talking non stop, sorry for that! Oh, are you guys open to get translation proposals? For free, of course, I'm from Brazil if there is interest in a Portuguese translation, if you are open for it in the future, I would be available for it. Congrats again for making such an awesome game.

RAY IS HOT EVERYONE IS HOT except for blaze

Double is peak red flag too, but I ain't here to judge! ^^;

I finished this game a long while ago but I can't believe I didn't leave a review right after, so here's one right now!

This game is super immersive and well written, I love the art direction that was presented in the story and how film-esque it felt despite it being, well, a game. Super heroes + comic vibes + complex characters and backgrounds? Sign me up! The art is very lovely too and I enjoyed the looking at the CG's right after I finished everything. The details in each of them (especially in Ray's) have me awestruck.
Overall, this is one of my favorite visual novels and I will be thinking about it even from years on.

P.S I also enjoyed playing your other work, Favor. It's actually the first one I played from you. Still haven't played Ep 2 due to procrastination but hopefully I can get around to it.

(+2)

I wish there were even more little episodes after were its just a domestic thing with Ray or tackling his trauma and the mcc 

(+2)

this game is soooo GOOD i fr wanted it to continue

(+2)

oh my god??? I love ray so much!! This is literally such a good game holy.

(+3)(-1)

i guess a have a type......and its a not healthy one...BUT my lovely wife Ray could let the world burn  and i wouldnt care at all <3

I loved the game so much that I did what I usually don't, I made an account to post on the comment section hehe  :3 It was sooooooo great, and would love to see more of the game if that is a possibility. It truly deserved more views and recognition! 

THIS WAS FUCKING AMAZING I JUST WISH THERE WAS MORE

(+2)

gosh this is so good words cannot describe how much fun i had playing through ray's story line :D i love like how subtly scary but loveable he is haha?

props to the team for this masterpiece of a project and the hard work that was done to make BSH happen! <3

Ugggggh, this made me so happy and sad at the same time. Happy because i laughted and giggled so much at times. And sad because Ray ... ahhhhh, i want to see even more of him. There was a lot of story/plot and the characters were so deep and well thought out, i love it. And the whole game was soooo well done, 10 out of 10. Thank you very much for the massiv enjoyment.

(+2)
