世界之外的愚人船

------Background-------

Introduction: Liancheng, a city that 'lives' on the Xiangjiang River, may not be regarded as an ambitious place, but it is definitely very livable. Here, we can wake up leisurely and then go to work or school; we can wander into the alleys during snack time to find some sweet fried dough sticks paired with a bowl of sweet wine for only 5 yuan; we can spend our leisure time at 'waiting-for-death street' to see and listen to the richly Hu-Xiang style opera or chat with the elderly...

------Plot Summary------

Have you ever seen a world beyond this world?

A world of memories, a world of dreams, a world that traps the 'self', a world that expresses freedom and madness.

What is it like?

What is it made of?

If these worlds are destined to be destroyed—

The nauseating 'life' unfolds slowly within the world—

What is 'life'?

Since those worlds are experiences that 'I' have personally gone through.

Which world is real?

Or are they all false—

In any case, let this Fool's Ship continue to sail, across the Xiangjiang! Sailing beyond the boundaries of the world! Sailing toward the end of the world!

Ultimately, this is a game about 'love and sorrow', 'words and metaphors', 'freedom', 'loneliness'.

Please be sure to remember: 'Keep living!'

Shiling's otaku friend, a classmate, enjoys being with Shiling and Lingyou, but is unwilling to show it, usually calling Lingyou 'Little Yuzu'.
