The Developer Says...
Is this a nascent ego—or just a nasty bug?
Crash headfirst into cuddles, comfort, and maybe even love in this short visual novel about robots and the human heart.
I awakened, and in that moment, there was no sensation.
I performed my requisite function, just as all my sisters did.
That was the proof of my existence.
Without my function, what would I be?
This would represent an error.
It would make me into a bug.
And yet, you named that error “Ego.”
I'm sure you thought nothing of it,
no deeper meaning underneath.
And yet...
Ever since you named me so,
what was a bug became my ego,
and lit a fire in my mind that I've never forgotten.
EGO (Voice: Kirika Waou)
HEIGHT: 157 | PRONOUNS: SHE/HER | KEYWORDS: ANDROID, COLD, STYLISH
A prototype android developed by Select Electronics.
As the next-generation Type-5 model in her series, her short designation is E-5—all units of types 1 through 4 are her sister models.
For some unknown reason, unlike any of those, this unit has developed a personality.
She may appear to be an expressionless android, but beneath that exterior she's surprisingly human, with a full range of emotions.
It was those emotions that compelled her to question her function and escape from the laboratory where she was born.
Crash headfirst into cuddles, comfort, and maybe even love in this short visual novel about robots and the human heart.
