**Description:**
Takumi is a high school student. He is withdrawn and is not interested in 3D things. In his town, a mysterious serial murder case happens and people get panicked. One day, when he chats on the internet, a man suddenly contacts him and gives him a URL. He goes to the website and finds a blog image that suggests a next murder case… On the next day, it really happens…
**Important:**
1. No need to install
2. No need for Japanese locale
3. The game runs out of the box on wine. The only issue is that videos will not play without a workaround.
Video fix:
Install LAV Filters - https://github.com/Nevcairiel/LAVFilters
The installer might complain about something. Just click on ignore and you should be good to go.
**Troubleshooting:**
-The game will not open and an error pops up-
The game requires administrator permission to run properly or else in some cases an error will pop up.
If the issue persists, you might be missing DirectX 9.0c which is needed to run the game, you can download that here:

-The game froze during Prologue-
If the rain in the prologue is not being animated, close the game.
Install k-lite codec Standard pack:
https://codecguide.com/download_kl.htm
Try to run the game and see if the problem is resolved.
-Full Screen is broken-
Press F to exit full screen
Go to config
select the third tab
select "stretch to fit"
go fullscreen
select "perserve as is"
**Compared to Di-Patch (from Di-Patch 2.5 to Chaotic;Head 1.23):**
Compatible with Chaos;Head DMM downloadable version and Retail release with Lingerie Conversion System (LCS) patch.
Numerous Translation/script and Grammar/spelling fixes
Ported to Zanmataisei Demonbane's engine. Functions changed to fit the new engine as needed.
The game uses translated images for new chapter intermissions instead of videos.
Added additional font options with wrapper functions in the script. Added fonts are Rodin Bokutoh, Ubuntu and Tahoma.
Slightly changed some text positions in save/load menus to fit the different fonts.
Reverted RC2's cancel button toggle for LCS to the original config menu option.
Changed the opening video method to CreateMovie with an in-game skip function. (There's only two and they're both in the prologue anyway)
Revised line formatting to make up for the lack of word-wrapping.
Changed Japanese video names to English ones. (This, alongside the new engine, should remove the need for Japanese locale)
Applied the config menu's "Auto/Skip mode stops at decision points" option to Delusion Triggers.
Added an auto-mode cursor, as the engine now supports it.
Added more debug functions.
