"Become the new #1 hit idol group, battle interdimensional music monsters, rebel against your corporate overlords, wield a mighty soul-devouring experimental weapon, and be unstoppably, unapologetically gay."
Blurb: Mobile Rhythm Game/Bullet Hell/Visual Novel hybrid about an idol group fighting monsters born from music. You play as their Producer, a wheelchair-bound accountant working for the Antiphon company who was suddenly promoted to their manager. She is tasked with developing the girls' bonds with each other to fight Noise Beasts by Beyond, a mysterious masked figure who hides much more then she lets on.
Why is it worth your time?: One of the members of STARLIVHT, Sumire, is plural. Her alter Hitori is written with nothing but sympathy and is treated as his own person despite his doubts. Both characters are playable, which I'd like to go into more but it's hard to really get into how well the gameplay functions with their plurality in a short blurb, so I'll just say it's very interesting. Their other alter, Firebird, is also treated sympathetically despite being a minor antagonist for part of one chapter. Firebird is not playable directly, but two of Sumire and Hitori's shared styles make several references to them.
Producer is also revealed to be plural, but I don't know how to summarize that here succinctly.
Plural/+1 Tags: abuse:intermediate-focus, identityblending(? regarding Firebird), relationships:family, relationships:teamwork, relationships:friendship, type:switching, type:setting-specific, type:on purpose, visions
Content Warnings: (contains spoilers) unreality, identity issues, abusive parenting, references to physical and emotional abuse, depictions of transphobia and mentions of transphobia directed at trans characters, some blood, major character death, minor/previous character death, forced outing by a shitty parent,
Accessibility Notes: Game is free on iOS and Android mobile devices with optional one-time in-app purchases. Game is also a sequel to NOISZ for PC, but can be played and enjoyed as a standalone title.
Misc. Notes: Game is just generally really good with it's representation, including a very canon major sapphic couple, major trans girl character, and several other minor queer characters.
Also the lead developer is plural.
