Pixel Ruins (廃墟ドット)

A gorgeous post-apocalyptic action adventure featuring cute cats and a photographic twist.  There isn’t a lot of information go on in terms of what else you can do in the game (at least that I can find with Google translate), but a demo is planned for this summer so I suppose we will find out then. 

I’m not sure how many areas there are to take pictures of but even if it’s limited the sense of depth it adds is wonderful for a 2D game, and it really makes me want to go exploring.  What would you like to be able to photograph? 🦋
