Ch. 45 Ep. 7: Making Up for Lost Time
After hearing Rina's concept for what she'd like to make, you and the girls decide to work on a falling object puzzle game. How will you all deal with working under such time pressure?
Ai
The hosts on the official channel are getting exciting too! Their commentary is filled with talk of Team Nijigasaki catching up to the others.
Haruka
I can't take my eyes off this. Can they really remake their game?
Ayumu
Look at all these comments on the live stream too.
Kanata
“I wonder if they'll get it all done in time.” “The rhythm game they got far with sounded cool. I'd like to give that a go too.”
Kanata
“They're brave to try starting again.” “I can't wait to see it. I love puzzle games.” “I was gonna go take a bath, but I can't take my eyes off this!”
Kanata
“OMG, kinda want to cheer for them too now.” “Do your best, Nijigasaki!”
Kanata
Ohhh, things are really heating up!
Ai
Yeah, I think my palms are getting sweaty.
Ayumu
They haven't taken a break since they started remaking their game. Will they be okay?
Haruka
Oh look, they're having some chocolate.
Kanata
Ack, I wish they were having a proper meal. I want to whip one up for them!
Ai
I doubt they'd get to enjoy it anyway. They don't have much time left…
Haruka
All we can do is hope for the best.
Kanata
Right…
Kanata
Do your best, girls!
[Fade in/out.]
Setsuna
Could you take a look at the designs I've got so far?
Player
Wow, they're amazing! How did you come up with all these in such a short amount of time?!
Setsuna
*Giggle* I just got really into it and next thing I knew, they were all done.
Rina
I think they're great. Thanks, Setsuna.
Mia
I think it'll fit the vibe of this track I'm writing to a T.
Setsuna
Make it an upbeat one!
Mia
Did you forget who you're talking to? I'm going to make the music in American superhero movies sound understated.
Rina
How's our overall progress?
Player
Hold on a sec. About…35%.
Rina
35% with less than 24 hours to go…
Player
It's a tall order, but we just have to keep at it.
Mia
I'm ready to work through the night.
Setsuna
Me too. I have energy drinks as well, so don't worry. I can handle this.
Rina
You guys…
Rina
I'll stay up with you and do everything I can.
Player
Hang on. I know you're all fired up, but we shouldn't stay up the whole night.
Player
It'll just be a waste of time if our bodies are still going but our brains are out for the count.
Player
Let's take turns getting in 3-hour naps.
Mia
Aww, but all-nighters are nothing to me these days.
Player
Not happening.
Mia
Tch. Fine.
Mia
Then you're up first for a nap, Little Baby.
Player
Me? I can have one later.
Rina
No, you should go now. Your management skills are going to be needed a bit farther down the line, once we have all of the parts ready.
Rina
So, I want you to rest up first.
Player
If you say so. I guess I'll take the first nap.
Setsuna
*Giggle* You'll listen when Rina tells you, huh?
Player
*Laugh* I mean, she is our leader, after all.
Mia
I'll have an amazing track waiting for you when you wake up, Little Baby.
Setsuna
And incredible characters!
Rina
I'll program enough of it so that it'll be ready for a play-test.
Player
Sounds great!
