A New Title from the Original Team Behind Needy Streamer Overload, Release Date Locked in for August!

Last year's series of controversies surrounding WSS Playground truly made one feel regret for the Needy Streamer Overload IP and the effort poured in by the development team, and left many players watching the original team's subsequent moves. Behind capital's profit-chasing and the farce, their first work after leaving WSS has arrived as scheduled—

HazeDenki's first dark visual novel Imouto, Other People, My Delusions will be released on Steam on August 15, 2026, supporting Chinese (Simplified and Traditional)/English/Japanese.

Story Synopsis

"Big brother, you're such a loner."

"Did I disappoint you?"

"No, I love you the most, big brother."

Lamenting the ugliness of the world and fearing other people, the protagonist gradually mastered the skill of reading minds.

After the light novel he wrote while shut in won a newcomer award, others' jealousy and envy made him grow weary of his already thin human relationships. The people around him always hurt his sensitive heart without realizing it.

To him, the little sister he lives with is his only solace.

Two people who have barely avoided killing themselves once again drown in a twisted codependent relationship tonight.

———Day after day. All I can do is pour out these prejudices in loneliness, cursing the entire world.

The stories I write are nothing but copies from Dostoevsky. But I'm not stupid enough to copy them outright—I know to pour this old wine into new bottles called light novels.

I think doing this much is already pretty good. Every now and then I even use the heroines' mouths to show off a line or two of "existentialism."

Game Overview

In this game, players can experience a soul-crushing social life alongside the extremely sensitive protagonist, and after coming home from work, spend wonderful time with his life's only solace—his little sister!

When the protagonist comes into frequent conflict with other characters, and ◼️◼️ grows out of their despicable thoughts, the player can cleverly use the mind-reading ability to force the other party to ◼️◼️.

Whether it's that annoying jerk who always loves to sneer, or this arrogant snob looking down on everyone, just expose the inferiority buried deep in their hearts and you can ◼️◼️ without a trace! No need to do it yourself, and no need to worry about being ◼️. Blame the world's lack of aesthetic taste, only ever following the crowd!

But is this really what I want?

What should an ordinary person's happiness look like?

What future the protagonist and his sister will ultimately meet awaits only for players to witness with their own eyes.

Whether Imouto, Other People, My Delusions can hit players' sweet spot the way Needy Streamer Overload did,

at least from what has been revealed so far, HazeDenki continues to push further, in their own way, the familiar elements of madness, denpa, meta style, and twisted human relationships.

As for whether this title is just a gimmick or has real substance, everyone can wait for a demo version and see~
