.Flow Is a Yume Nikki fan game. Right from the title music you can tell it going for a darker feeling. While I did watch some of a Let's play many many years ago right after the Yume Nikki one. I can't remember a damn thing about this game. So in other words, This will be completely blind LP so make sure you spoiler tag things not yet seen. We will be playing on the latest version 0.194 .

Oh also No idea why, but unlike Yume Nikki I have to click outside the game window to take a gif/screenshot with the programs I use so It's a tad bit more janky for me.

Episode 1: Deja Vu, I've been in this place before.

The image on the right looks like something you see in a Newgrounds flash game in the mid 2000s.

Listen to that music, Where yume nikki had a more calming feel to it, this has depressing slow vibe. I still think Snow world from YN has a better lonely vibe sound then the title here.

Getting flash backs to the static maze already.

We play as Sabitsuki Get used to a lot of Yume nikki fan games names sounding a lot alike. Even the room looks depressing compared to YN.

In .flow we have some new menus on the menu screen. Let's look at all menus.

As per normal we start with instructions as a effect. Let's see if the controls are any diffrent.

Could one say this is a flow chart. Ohhh that was bad.

No dedicated wake up button here. And the effects button is moved.

Screenshot_7.png
Under Special menu we can well wake up.

Screenshot_8.png
Under Me menu, we can check out Sabitsuki and see what she has on.

I wonder if we can at some point pick up items to change how we look. Ones that are not effects.

9 Wake up animation.gif
It's the same animation as in YN.

Let's check out our console and see what game is on it.

Screenshot_11.png
The console looks like a orange Super nintendo, and the name might be a nod to Japanses name of the nintendo systems. Famicom(family computer).

Screenshot_12.png
Heck yeah I love these minigames.

Listen to that music.

Goal is simple paw at fishs and sea horses. There is no winning, and there a delay to the attack so you can't spamming it.

And that music is just balling.

On the title by putting in a Modified version of the Konnami code. < < > > ^ v ^ v. You will unlock.

12-2 Shin Neko.gif
Little too fast for my taste.

Sleeping in the bed is to save your game.

14 We are a shut in.gif
We are still a shut in.

Screenshot_15.png
And outside our room on the balcony makes YN one look warm and welcoming in comparison.

15 Let's Jack in.gif
With everything in our room looked at it's time we jack in.

Screenshot_16.png
Dream world version makes the real world version look warm and cozy.

Thats distressing music.

Screenshot_17.png
I wonder if the TV has a event like in YN.

17 Nothing with the TV this time.gif
Nothing this time no matter how many time I turn it off and back on.

Screenshot_18.png
We can sit at the desk, and lay in the bed but nothing happens. Well Time to open the door and see what the .flow nexus looks like.

Screenshot_19.png
Huh Lack of doors here.

Screenshot_20.png
We came in looking downward might as well go that way first.

We'll explore this world Next update.
