The Kaiju is My Childhood Friend

Share Collapse

Author Comments

A high schooler's life takes a crazy turn when he is reunited with his childhood friend who, occasionally, turns into a 300-ft tall kaiju.


The Kaiju is My Childhood Friend is a kinetic-novel slice-of-life romcom. You play as the beleaguered childhood friend of Akai Juu, an awkward girl with a strange condition that causes her to turn into a kaiju when she is emotional. The game is composed of a variety of short, simple minigames that intersperse story segments. Being tasked with helping to cure "Kaiju-chan", you must ensure that she doesn't stress herself too much lest she resorts to plan B: the destruction of the entire city.


Instructions:

Arrow Keys to move

Z/Space/Enter to interact or select

X/Esc to cancel or open pause menu

Estimated length: ~20 minutes


This game is originally made for Kaijujam 2 in itch.io.

Genuinely very charming game!! The minigames were a bit too long for such a frantic, kinetic game, but the art style is great and the humor is, well, humorous. Akai Juu is the best.

Akai Juu is a Kaiju, shocking
