## What is EscapeGame Tanabata love story?

The Milky Way glittering in the night sky.
On the banks of the river, Orihime, the daughter of the heavenly god, was weaving the most beautiful hats in the world.
The cloth that Orihime woven shone in five colors, and it was beautiful that even the colors changed as the seasons changed.
The god of heaven was very proud of such a daughter, but Orihime took great care in weaving the hat, and did not care about her own hair and clothes. The god of heaven felt sorry for such a figure and said.
"Orihime is about to come of age, but I feel sorry for you if you just weave people's hats. That's right, let's find a suitable son for Orihime."

The god of heaven immediately searched everywhere. "I wonder if there's a son out there who's a match for Orihime..." As the god of heaven was walking along the banks of the Milky Way, he met a young man tending cows. Young people are called "Hikoboshi", and they work diligently without rest, watering the cows, preparing food, and working hard in the fields. "Well, if this hardworking young man can live happily with Orihime, then the god of heaven chose Hikoboshi as Orihime's marriage partner. Orihime and Hikoboshi fell in love with each other at first sight and became a very close couple.

However, since then, the two have been playing around and not doing any work at all. The weaving machine was covered in dust, and Hikoboshi's cows were getting thinner and thinner because they were no longer fed. "You guys, why don't you start working soon?" Even though the worried heavenly god warned them, they just answered, "Yes. I understand." Since Orihime stopped weaving hats, not only the clothes of the gods of the sky, but also the clothes of the gods of the heavens were in tatters. The squirrels also stopped working, so the fields were overgrown with grass, the crops were completely withered, and the cows finally fell ill.

"I can't leave you alone like this anymore." The angry Heavenly God said, "I can't let you two meet anymore." I was. And so, they parted with each other across the vast Milky Way, and they could not even see each other. From then on, Orihime cried every day and never tried to weave. Hikoboshi is also stuck at home, and the cow's illness is getting worse and worse. The troubled heavenly God said to them. "If you guys work hard every day like before, then I'll allow the two of you to meet only once a year."I look forward to seeing you once a year, on the night of July 7th... And Orihime was weaving even more beautiful hats than before, and everyone was very happy. Hikoboshi also worked diligently to take care of the oxen and plow the fields, so the oxen became very healthy and the fields produced a bountiful crop.

On the long-awaited night of July 7th, Orihime and Hikoboshi cross the Milky Way and enjoy their annual date. However, if it rains on that day, the water level of the river increases and it is impossible to cross the river. Then, a group of birds called magpies came out of nowhere and connected their wings to form a bridge in the Milky Way, allowing them to meet.

### 3/5 — 楽し

*2026-02-28*

む前に終了。名前も渚くらいは容易いが竹で家具屋は連想ムツカシかった。消去法で切り抜けられるのは助かった。

### 3/5 — 短っ！

*2024-09-04*

前振り長いのに中身がとんでもなく短い。

### 3/5 — 短い脱出ゲーム

*2024-07-07*

短くて驚きました簡単と言うよりも序章みたいで、アッと言う間に終わりました。
感度が悪く全体的に雑ですが今後に期待します。

### 4/5 — Good

*2023-09-25*

初心者向けでプレイし安い。
エンディングが複数あればより楽しめそう。
今後に期待。

### 2/5 — 初心者には良い

*2023-07-24*

アプリ作成して内容コレで満足なのだろうか？綺麗に纏めてるのでまだ良かった、初心者向けの謎解きです。

### 3/5 — え！

*2023-07-17*

短っ！！
三部作くらいかと思ったから 短さに目を疑いました。 勿体な～い😅

### 3/5 — 安い！短い！やりごたえない！

*2023-07-12*

短いし、ヒント機能いる？っていうぐらい謎解き簡単
話が少しこってたので勿体ない

### 5/5 — ギミック4つ

*2023-07-12*

樽、机の上の箱、牛舎の扉、牛の餌、
ギミックが4つしかないし
いずれも簡単なので
かなりあっけなく終わります。

ストーリーは七夕そのもので、
オリジナリティ要素はありません。

グラフィックに関しては
可もなく不可もなくという感じです。

色々荒削りな感じはしますが、
初めて作った脱出ゲームだとするなら、
別に問題ないと思います。
これから良作を作れるように頑張って下さい。

難易度　　　　　　⭐︎⭐︎⭐︎★★
ギミックの独創性　⭐︎⭐︎⭐︎⭐︎★
ボリューム　　　　⭐︎⭐︎⭐︎⭐︎★
グラフィック　　　⭐︎⭐︎★★★
世界観　　　　　　⭐︎⭐︎⭐︎★★
オススメ度　　　　⭐︎⭐︎⭐︎★★

### 5/5 — お手軽お試し脱出ゲーム

*2023-07-09*

謎解きの難易度は優しめ。マップも狭く謎解きの数も少なくボリュームは少ない。10分で終わる。操作性に問題ないが視点移動が分かりにくい。

お試し脱出ゲームというぐらいの短さで簡単に解くことができる。特にひねりもなく初心者向け。初めて脱出ゲームを作ってみたという感じになっている。同一機能をライブラリ化して効率化し、次回作の開発に応用してもっとやりごたえのある脱出ゲームを開発して欲しい。次回作にも期待しています。

### 5/5 — 簡単

*2023-07-08*

短っ‼️
