Introduction
Greetings and salutations, everyone! Mia here (or Meta or Meta_Mia or whatever is fine please stop calling me Metameme I'm gonna cry) here, with my first Let's Play.Nico Yazawa Is Dreaming is a free fangame of Love Live School Idol Project, made by 7 Coloured LED. To quote the blurb, it is an RPG-esque(?) game about bringing smiles to everyone.
Heck does that mean?
Well, you'll find out by reading this. Or by playing it for yourself in English here. Or by playing it in the original Japanese here or here. It's a bit trial and error-y, but as it's an indie game all of it's for Deep Thematic Reasons.
Why this game?
I wanted my first LP to be three things: Short, Sweet, and most importantly: Niche as Hell. Having eyes on your LP is scary. What if someone says something like "you're deeply unfunny", or "you will never find happiness because you made a mediocre LP on SA once and I hope you die", or even the worst-case scenario, "Loving your prose! Can you do my favourite pokemon amputee sex slave romhack"? I'd never recover. With the ideal cruising speed of like, 5 views per update tops I'll overcome my debilitating stage fright. Wooo.
Wow! It was short AND sweet! Since you're taking so long mind if I talk abou-
Stopping this hypothetical version of you right there to say that I'd prefer people Not Discuss stuff we haven't seen, either in-game or in the anime. I'd also prefer that people who've consumed every single piece of Love-Live media and have 15 metric tonnes of Rin Ramen stocked in their bunkers not make fun of me for not getting every reference this game makes, but I understand that it's bestial instinct.
I have literally never seen Love Live.
Great, neither did I when I played this! I still cried. Come join me, this'll be fun!
