AI Summary
Kiwisaurus is showcasing their new game Ruin Otaku at ChinaJoy. Players must recover squandered group funds via mini-games and choices. The studio is also planning to attend Tokyo Game Show 2025.

A story-driven indie game about a shut-in otaku trying to recover 'public funds' they accidentally squandered is making its way to ChinaJoy.
The Korean indie developer Kiwisaurus announced on the 25th that their latest project, Ruin Otaku, will be showcased at ChinaJoy. In this game, the protagonist is a hikikomori otaku who was in charge of a group order for collectibles, only to find that the collective funds had been foolishly spent on personal whims.
Players must hustle in various ways to recover the money, with over 20 different endings available depending on how they manage their stats. The game features a narrative steeped in Korean subculture, along with mini-games and an NPC affinity system. Players can experience the jarring gap between reality and fantasy by jumping between a monochrome real world and the vibrant, eccentric art style of the digital realm.




Meanwhile, Kiwisaurus announced that following their appearance at BitSummit 2025 in Japan, they are set to exhibit at Tokyo Game Show 2025 this coming September.

히키코모리 오타쿠 주인공이 사적으로 소모한 '공금'을 다시 모으는 골치아픈 이야기의 스토리 어드벤처 인디게임이 차이나조이에 출전한다.
국내 인디게임 개발사 키위사우르스는 25일, 자사 신작 '파멸의 오타쿠'를 차이나조이에 출전한다고 밝혔다. 파멸의 오타쿠는 오타쿠 향수 공동구매 총대를 맡은 히키코모리 오타쿠가 주인공으로, 실수로 공금을 사적인 용도로 모두 써버려 이를 다시 모으는 이야기를 그린다.
게임에서 플레이어는 다양한 방법으로 돈을 다시 모으게 되며, 여러 수치에 따라 20개 이상의 엔딩을 만나볼 수 있다. 특유의 한국 서브컬처 문화가 녹아든 스토리와 미니게임, NPC 호감도 시스템이 콘텐츠로 제공된다. 플레이어는 흑백의 현실과 사이버 세상의 화려하고 독특한 아트스타일 사이를 오가며 현실과 가상 사이의 간극을 체험할 수 있다.




한편, 키위사우르스는 일본 최대 인디게임쇼 비트서밋 2025에 이어 오는 9월 열리는 '도쿄게임쇼 2025'에도 참가한다고 전했다.
