*pull's a calculator out of his pocket, and starts pressing keys*

let's say I'm a fast reader and can read 10000 words per hour
to read your entire story I need
100,000,000,000,000/10000=10,000,000,000 hours
10,000,000,000/24=~416,666,666.66667 days
416,666,666.66667/30=~13,888,888.88889 months
13,888,888.88889/12= 1,157,407.40741 years O.o
I'm not an immortal !!!
there is probably only one bad ending to any player playing this game, dying without finishing any of the game's actual endings...

Seems Legit! It'll be just like Muv-Luv only with less head chomping action!

Will Sora fans finally get what we always been waiting for!?
(It still hurts...)
Much Appreciated for those who took the Survey!

You know this doesn't necessarily have to be an April Fool's.

If you already have the 3D models of the mecha you can just pre-render them isometrically and plug them into the Battle Engine.

You even have the sprites completed.

You've been talking to Graph, right? He's good at technical cutscenes.

Is this april fool? The word count sounds too amazing to be true. Of course I'm happier if I am wrong and Samu-kun really make this game.

Alright, maybe 100 000 000 000 000 was a little overambitious. I think 100 000 000 000 should be more doable - and more readable for the fans.

I can't tell whether you're joking or not. A Homeward mecha spinoff would still be a megaton of work... Although a collaboration with Graph wouldn't be so bad. Cool mechas... *_*

It's so edgy even I'm not allowed to play it.

Let's make this game for real \(>_<)/ I know people would love it. No need for the 1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 word count though...
