2. Nanairo Script なないろスクリプト [160814] Timenauts
Haruki worked as an illustrator for the large bishoujo game company Disir. He was a much talked-about newcomer with a name sounding like a famous writer’s and whose drawing ability was popular among social networks. Soon, he became the company’s main illustrator, producing games in tandem with fellow writer Ayano over the span of four years.
However, instead of good sales and great reviews, Haruki had lately become the target of some nasty criticism. He was then abandoned by his partner and left adrift on a sentimental journey.

Basically, only one route got released as a professional work, and it failed to present heroines properly, failed to set stage properly with protagonist circumstances, failed to raise emotions. Was a kusoge in that shape.
