Field notes
The opening issue presents a four-option decision point and distinct resulting scenes, while a story map labels paths already walked and those not yet chosen. The page says writers establish the plot structure, characters, and endings, with AI generating finer developments within those constraints; narration is AI-generated and Japanese-only for now, with English text alongside it. Episode 2 is offered as a pre-registration bonus ahead of general release.
