Overview
device is a Japanese fangame by Machikado no Michi and Haru, the creators of Mugamuchuu. The game is still in its early stages, so there are unfinished areas sectioned off by traffic cones. It was developed in RPG Maker 2000.
Gameplay
The player can save the game through the protagonist's computer (by choosing the green folder) and enter the dream world by sleeping in the bed. The protagonist's PC is similar to the ones in Me or The Looking Glass, as the player can unlock wallpapers, music and menu styles. There are chasers in this game, but it's mostly a few in the evening school area.
When asleep, a debug room can be accessed by interacting with the right closet door. That room has a wall that warps the player to a dream world when approached.
Controls
- Move - Arrow Keys
- Interact/Select - Z/Space

- Effect Action - Shift
Plot
The protagonist is Motatsuki (もたつき), and he refuses to leave his room. If the player tries to open the door, he says "Stop it!" in Japanese. He also seems to be the very first fangame protagonist wearing earphones by default. This might have something to do with the fact that some of the effects in Device are music/sound-related.
In the game files there is a note called "read me" which deals with bugs, new versions and terms of use, at the end of the text a little mysterious sentence can be read "Even if he would like to go into a dream, an error takes place. Even if he would like to go into a dream, an error takes place."
