‘Emo’ Visual Novel Gloom And Doom Brings Slacker Movie Vibes To Switch

Publisher Viridian Software is bringing its new visual novel Gloom and Doom to the Switch on July 19th, promising throwbacks to ’90s slacker movies but with a supernatural twist.

It stars Winona, an ordinary ’emo’ teenager who is secretly an immortal doom-bringer who could bring about the end of the world – except she doesn’t want to. She befriends a wraith and together they embark on a quest to prevent the coming apocalypse.

Here’s some more info from the game’s eShop page:

Gloom and Doom is a visual novel throwback to 90s slacker movies with a supernatural twist.

A depressed wraith is trying to earn his way back into heaven by hunting demons. After killing demons for 500 years, his final mark is a girl who believes she will cause the end of the world.

However, even his formidable powers are unable to kill her, and they go on a quest to find death and peace for her.

Featuring a cast of moody characters and a 90s superhero comicbook style, your choices will lead you to one of seven endings.

Will you save the girl or save the world?
