On the last day of summer, the doors between the human and ghost world open, allowing 1000 ghosts to enter the mortal realm...

Some ghosts want to have fun, others wish to explore, and others are out for revenge...

Usually, demons known as SHASHINKAMI appear in the human world to send ghosts back by taking their pictures with a strange device known as the KAMI KAMERA.

This year, however, one SHASHINKAMI has decided that he wants to take a break from ghost hunting, and now one young girl must complete his task in his stead... OR DIE.

IN THIS EARLY BUILD OF THE GAME, THERE ARE ONLY 30 GHOSTS TO FIND. IN THE FINAL THERE WILL BE OVER 100. PLEASE KEEP THIS IN MIND WHILST PLAYING.

I really enjoyed this game, all the characters, the story, the funny jokes, the art, everything is just so good. There's also a lot of stuff to check and explore, which I find very neat.

One feature I think would be cool to add is some sort of Ghost Gallery Menu, to check all the ghosts the player has captured, with their names and description, which could also be a good way to track how many are left. Maybe it could be accessed by interacting with the Camera in the Inventory, since I found it a bit confusing that you can take pictures of others but they don't really do anything unless you do the ghosts' quests.

Throughout the game I found a few bugs:
- The game always crashes when you go to the bathroom at Konbini, stating "An invalid event was specified".
- Buying the DVD for the girl covered in blood causes her to say she'll give you some chocolate, but instead she only gives you another DVD, and talking to her again causes her to ask you if you paid for the DVD, resulting in a loop.
- Talking to Hanmagami may cause Nanori's sprite to be stuck turning to the right side.
- Reaching the Yoruko's sisters room through the neighbor's wardrobe causes all the maggots to disappear, but leaving the room through the door and re-entering it causes them to reappear.
- I'm not sure if the 'Maggots Game' is working or not, I was only able to procceed by randomly trying to walk and pressing enter despite not being able to see Nanori on the screen.
- 'Dying Thing' remains in your inventory even after reviving it.
- 'Forbidden Flute' remains in your inventory even after giving it to Mr. Aomori.

All and all, I fell in love with this game, it has been very hard to find good RPGs like this, and I can't wait to see the complete version! 

Thank you for playing. I am glad that you enjoyed.

I did have a ghost gallery in an early version! It was used to take on the form of that character, which would allow you to use a power and explore other areas of the game, but I did not think it was interesting for every character, so it was changed. Maybe I can work on something, but programming it would maybe be difficult in a way that would look correct. Maybe I can add the photos of ghosts as items? Would you like that or would you not?


I have seen a few people become confused with the Kami Kamera item when it takes a photo, maybe a ghost gallery is better...


There are a lot of glitches in the game currently. It is disheartening and it is scary for me to fix them. When I released the latest version, I had tested many times and I thought it was mostly glitch free, but I was wrong. I have to fix them, but I do not know why they appear.


One day I hope to finish the game, but it is difficult for me... Life is very busy, and I often feel sad.

I hope you will play a better version of the game one day.

Thank you for your words, they make me happy and make me want to fix the game :)

I really like the idea of having each photo as an item! Really adds to the collection aspect, in case the gallery doesn't work out that's also a great option! Another thing that could work is if the ghosts' photos could be uploaded to Nanori's computer gallery, maybe they could even be interacted with from there like virtual pets or something, but I'm just brainstorming here.

I understand life can be pretty harsh sometimes, it's import that you take your time on your own pacing, and I'm sure whatever comes up in the future will be awesome because its made with heart.

Wishing you well in life, and that you can enjoy your experience making art!

i enjoyed playing kami kamera, it felt like a patchwork of your personal ideas. comfortable to lie down and hide under. i've drawn something for you. i hope you see it some day.

Thank you so much!

This image has made me very happy in a dark time.

I love the art style, it is like a story book. I love that there are many characters. 

From the deepest place in my heart, I want to thank you. I am glad that you have played my game and I hope that you enjoyed it.

hi! I´m playing the game and it's awesome, but I can´t find the way to exit the red room in the computer... what do I need to do??? congrats for this great game <3

That is the hardest part of the game. I am sorry that you are having difficulty.

It is impossible to guide you perfectly, but there are 3 sequences.

1. Find the right order of objects to interact with (if the room changes: correct. If the room does not change or reverts to a previous room state:incorrect)

2. Explore the long corridors, they will change as you move through them, sometimes it will seem like no progress is being made, but that is to confuse you.

3. Follow the sound to find the exit.

I am sorry that it is difficult. If you are not having fun, please leave the red room for later. Please use the computer and try the log out option for a cute surprise! :)

What little of the game I played has me so excited for everything to come! The presentation, the graphics, the atmosphere--all very impressive pieces of this project! Thanks for making it!

Thank you very much for playing :)

You have inspired me to fix a few bugs that are present in the game. Please download Version 0.3 for a better experience!

Firstly, I'm so glad I have found your game! The art, music, and the interface are superb. Although by far, I have encountered some bugs as I played them, and I hope putting them here will help your development. I really look forward to having this game finished because I will definitely play it!

Bugs encountered:
1. The prompt with the dvd npc in the convenience store is repeatable (not really a problem since it doesn't break the game)
2. When you walk in the convenience store, the character's walking speed slows down and it will permanently keep its pace even if you go outside the store. Also, not sure if it's just me but if you walked in twice the convenience store, it would go slower than your current pace of walking.
3. When you encounter the two toilet ghosts, the screen would shake, and it will prompt permanently throughout the game. I expected the screen shake would stop after the ghosts' party, but it didn't which made me dizzy to go to other areas to seek ghosts.
4. If you consume any food from the convenience store, it will ask you if you want to eat it. If you choose "no", the food will still disappear from your inventory.
5. I tried going back to the bathroom stall and had the toilet ghosts' cutscene repeat again.
