Recently, I was lucky enough to chat with several members of the team to talk about the new game and the VN genre as a whole.Īpphia Yu, better known online as Ayu Sakata, is a voice actress for Funimation and the founder and lead developer of sakevisual. Thankfully, past and future fans of VN storytelling have a few talented indie developers to look to for their fix, including sakevisual, the team behind RE: Alistair, the Jisei murder-mystery series, and now, Backstage Pass. While visual novels have been booming in Japan for decades, the genre continues to struggle for a foothold in the West thanks in large part to stereotypes and a lack of support from mainstream publishers.
