Pierced Veil/Distant Firmament is a short, choice based, visual novel about the end of the world, accepting the life you have lived and having a ‘good’ drink.
‘When the end of the world was announced there was chaos. People screamed in the streets and nobody was sure what would happen next. Now everything is quiet. It is rare to see anyone on the streets and few shops open. The once vibrant city I call my home is now nothing but a ghost town. Still, I find myself wandering its streets. Until one day I spied a bar still doing business…’
This is a tale of an encounter that would be considered mundane in any other circumstance. However, here, waiting for the end, the unremarkable reveals its true majesty. Can this exchange between two people help them find the closure they need or will they part unsatisfied?
What meaning does anything have when it will all soon be wiped away?
