- Detective of Miracles Has Been Released - 20 June 2026
Detective of Miracles Has Been ReleasedYesterday, I finally released Detective of Miracles.At last, I made it to this point.I started serious game development around June of last year, which means it took almost a full year to bring this project to release.It may sound like a cliché, but it truly felt like both a very long and a very short year.This project began as a combination of two dreams:“I want people to experience a story that I created.”“I want to release a game that I built entirely by myself.”However, once I actually started developing the game, I quickly realized how many things I didn’t know.In reality, this was never something I accomplished completely alone. Throughout the year, I relied on the knowledge and advice of many people on the internet, as well as the support of AI tools and countless resources. It was a journey made possible by the help of many others.More than…

- [Developer’s Story #2] Why Miracle Detective Became a Mystery Adventure Game - 18 January 2026
Happy New Year. During the year-end and New Year holidays, I took a short break from game development, took care of some things I had put off, and spent the time relaxing at my own pace. Recently, I’ve returned to development, and I’m currently focusing on updating the presentation and direction of the game. It will still take a little while before the full version is ready for release, but I hope you’ll continue to enjoy the demo in the meantime. If you have any thoughts or feedback, I would be very happy if you shared them with me. ⸻ Now, as I prepare to finally release a story that I have written, erased, and rewritten countless times, I had to decide how to present it to the world as a game. When I made that decision, choosing the adventure game genre felt completely natural to me. I’ve loved video games since elementary school. Over the years, I played many different genres— action…
- [Video] One Episode, Two Perspectives - 27 December 2025
Yesterday, we released two short videos on YouTube. If you’re interested, we’d love for you to take a look. Miracle Detective | Episode 1 “White” Miracle Detective | Episode 1 “Black” Both videos introduce Episode 1, “She Was Listening”, which is playable in the demo. Interestingly, they use almost the same structure, dialogue, and characters. The difference lies in perspective. These videos depict the same episode, but from two different viewpoints. Miracle Detective is a story that slowly explores the subtle sense of unease hidden in everyday life, and the unexpected truths behind cases that may initially seem easy to solve. We created these videos in the hope of conveying a small part of that experience and structure. If watching both videos made you curious about the game, we’d be happy if you gave the demo a try.
- [Developer’s Story #2] How Natsumi Was Born - 24 December 2025
It actually took more than twenty years for the story of Miracle Detective to reach its current form. Some time after I started working as a full-time adult, when I finally had a bit more mental and emotional breathing room, I decided to continue writing an original story I had loved working on since my student days. At the time, I had no intention of publishing it anywhere. But for the first time, I found myself thinking: “Wouldn’t it be nice if someone else could read this?” Compared to when I first started writing stories, the internet had grown, social media had become widespread, and there were suddenly far more places where individuals could share what they created. That change probably planted the seed. I saw unknown creators posting incredibly skilled illustrations, or novels polished enough to feel commercially viable. At the same time, I also saw people sharing unfinished work…
- [Developer’s Story #1] I Wanted to Make It With My Own Hands - 16 December 2025
I have been involved in programming for quite a long time. However, I had never created a full-fledged game entirely on my own. Game development requires many different skills, and I always felt that making everything by myself would be difficult. Still, this time, I decided to try. I wanted to see how far I could go using my own hands and my own abilities. Of course, reality was not that simple. I quickly realized that trying to create everything—music, sound effects, illustrations—on my own would make it impossible to finish the game. So early on, I made the decision to let go of that idea. I chose to focus on what I could do, and to rely on tools and external help where necessary. My priority was clear: the worst possible outcome would be failing to release the game at all. By narrowing my scope and making compromises, I was finally able to move forward. As I continued working, somet…
