Overview

device is a 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.

Plot

The protagonist is Motatsuki, 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."

Gameplay

The player can save the game through Motatsuki's computer (by choosing the green folder) and enter Motatsuki's dreams by sleeping in the bed. Motatsuki's PC is similar to the ones in Me or The Looking Glass, as you can unlock wallpapers, music and menu styles. There is chasers in this game, but its a few in evening school area.

When Motatsuki is asleep, a debug room can be accessed by interacting with the right closet door. That room has a wall that warps you to a dream world when you approach it.
