This is just like any horror game... right?
Citri Plays Noirwood is a game made by aplovestudio for the Ludum Dare 51.
In this game, Citri Pomelo is a busty Vtuber who decides to play Noirwood by Pentagames, a horror game where the protagonist has to seek 7 relics while avoiding the monster. During the livestream, she can make some interesting interactions with her audience, but she's unaware about what truly lies within the game...
