It was a simple game wherein you had to race through circuits and platforms in space that had different areas of effect wherever your spaceship drove through.

SkyRoads’ simple gameplay is the very foundation of Nirvana Pilot Yume’s own gameplay and so it’s no surprise that you’ll be spending your time traversing across these retro-style polygonal renditions of space. However, don’t expect that this is all the game has to offer.directional keysspacebarSkyRoadsA drama that has it all Nirvana Pilot Yume’s other core mechanic is its visual novel side. In this game, you are embroiled in a rich story that talks about atonement, ambition, and the value of relationships—all in the midst of a sci-fi world. The year is 3080 and the barrier of the Speed of Light has long been broken.

In order to drive an Ultrathought spaceship for the race, a Pilot and an Eye are needed—and they need to do the Nirvana Sync in order to act as one. G.U.R.U.

Mitur’s road to redemption rides alongside his romances that can come from either Yume herself or the two other female characters that end up helping the pair’s career.Romance and races come togetherLooking at it as a whole, Nirvana Pilot Yume surprisingly pulls off the combination of SkyRoads racing and dramatic visual novel quite well. The lore of its sci-fi plotline is interesting and expansive enough that several sequels or spin-offs could be made for it. The relationship arcs between the main characters may feel rushed at times—and you might even think that it’s because of the few NSFW adult scenes in the story—but all in all, Nirvana Pilot Yume ties cohesively into one nice game you can jive to, especially because of its amazing soundtrack and graphics.SkyRoads interesting and expansive enoughmay feel rushedfew NSFW adult scenesamazing soundtrack and graphics
