able to finish ….!”
    “Yeah, it turned out pretty well in the end ….! Good work, Haruka! Now then, let me try it out a little more before we actually open.”
    Haruka, who had been making this demanding game until yesterday and had bags under his eyes, for once; and in contrast, I, who had gotten a sufficient amount of sleep (fifteen hours) and didn’t have bags under my eyes, for once; began working on the final adjustments before releasing it to the public.
    Once Haruka turned on the power for the computer that was placed underneath the table, the display monitor showed the title screen of the completed game that Tateyama-sensei and Haruka had created.
    One after another, there appeared stuffed animal monsters that were to be shot down in this game, which Haruka had given the name, “Headphone Actor”.
    At first, I didn’t understand the meaning of the game’s title, but when I saw how the “boss that controls the stuffed animals” that comes out in the last stage looked just like me, I understood with considerable annoyance that it meant to “defeat the stuffed animals (actors) that are being controlled by me, who is wearing headphones”.
    Of course, it goes without saying that I sent Haruka flying after that.
    “…. This game really leaves a bad taste in my mouth. Why should I have to fight against myself?”
    “Well, see, the challengers are going to have to try and defeat you, right? So that’s why I thought, maybe it’d be best if I made the enemy look like Takane~ …. Although, I completely forgot that Takane was going to be playing, too.”
    “…. How could you have forgotten something like that? …. Well, after the colors have been changed and all, it doesn’t really look like me anymore, though.”
    Originally, the last boss, “Takane No.2 (dubbed by Tateyama-sensei)” had black hair just like me, but after being forced to recolor, it was now a 2P design with bright blue hair.
    “Well, even if I eventually forgive you for this design, why is it so gory? Is this much even necessary?”
    After clicking start from the title screen, a monologue would begin. The game’s stage was a small town, and once again, by Haruka’s own decision, it was modeled to greatly resemble the town that we lived in.
    As you advanced with a gun in hand, cute stuffed animals of various sizes would come lunging out at you, one after another. Every time you shot one down, the screen would become dyed in blood with a graphic “splat!” sound, leaving the player to be hit with an enormous feeling of guilt.
    “Ah, about that, I referenced the game that you mentioned before! Since I thought you’d like this kind of thing.”
    The moment I heard that, my hand slipped on the controller, and after being bitten by a monkey doll, I got game over.
    Blood dripped down from the top of the screen, followed by the words “GAME OVER” being displayed.
    “D-did you ask Sensei about that!?”
    After pulling all-nighters every day in order to work on the game, it seemed that once it had been completed, Tateyama-sensei had collapsed on the bed after rasping out the words, “Please …. appeal …. to the principal …..”
    Since Haruka had been staying over at Tateyama-sensei’s house all week to make the game, there was a high possibility that he’d been told all sorts of unnecessary things.
    “No, he didn’t tell me anything at all. I remembered you talking about this before, so I looked it up by myself.”
    “Wh-what, really? Well, that’s good, then …. Anyway, I honestly think this effect is way too mismatched. It doesn’t make me feel excited at all.”
     
    I started the game from the title screen again, but no matter what, it really was weird seeing the stuffed animals be scattered into a bunch of blood and guts when they were shot down. It would’ve been better if it was zombies that attacked you, instead.
    “Ahaha, sorry. But, since we were going through with this anyway, I wanted to make it something
