A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux

You play as Anon, a lonely, faceless, nobody, reject who finds himself in the dinosaur themed acid trip of a school named Volcano High. Here Anon meets the qt ptero known as Fang and their clown-vomit colored posse of reject friends and other associated thorns-in-the-side. All of whom, you can read about here. https://snootgame.xyz/

This game is a fair use protected parody of another game called https://goodbyevolcanohigh.com/Goodbye Volcano High. This game is being developed by Canadian game studio https://www.ko-opmode.com/%3EKO_OP and Snoot Game (besides in parody) IS IN NO WAY RELATED TO Goodbye Volcano High or KO_OP. This game was developed as a critique of Goodbye Volcano High's characters will likely have little to no financial impact on Goodbye Volcano High's future sales.

Fantasy hilarious game bravo!

(1 edit)

thanks so much for your kind words and for streaming our game!

damn great game but i think i got the worst ending of the 4 my first play throw.

just wondering if there is a guide for the other endings?????

there's a few guides floating around on forums if you ask for one there

(+2)

I saw a bit of hype circling around this VN trough posts and fanart, so I decided to try it out to see if it lived up to the build-up.

And I can happily say that it absolutely lived up to the hype.

This VN made me laugh out loud and at the same time it tugged at my heartstings. The amount of detail that has gone into this "parody game" is truly staggering. I applaud you and the team for this quality shitpost.

If you all continue to make content, either through this VN or any other media, I will be ready to consume said content.

10/10 would boop snoot

Damn, I saw this game streamed a bit from a friend on Discord and thought it was an elaborate shitpost, but regardless, I decided to try it myself.

I honest to god wasn't expecting to be this enraptured with a VN before, I'm not one for them usually, but the way you've written this and put it all together is simply incredible. Even if it is just an elaborate shitpost, it feels good enough to be a game worth talking about, and I truly feel you did wonders with this game. Thanks for making this, it's truly an amazing VN experience, dunno if you guys plan on doing anything else with this game in particular, but I'm definitely keeping an eye out.

(1 edit) (+2)

Someone in a forum told me about this game and I wasn't expecting much but gave it a shot.


I don't think I've ever been enraptured by a VN, let alone a parody of one, and has made me want to create a VN of my own out of inspiration. I have no clue if this was just a shitpost that you just had a bit of fun with or I'd this was meant to be as good as it was. Either way, it was better than I could've hoped.

How long did this take to make? It seems like this took far more work than I could've imagined. You and everyone who participated in this project deserve nothing but praise.

thanks so much for the kind words!

development for this build took about a year, but there's still a major update coming 'soon' with the rest of the content

Do you have a community some of us fans can enjoy or a server on discord we could join? It'd be great to have something like that so we can discuss the game, memes and art of it. Just a suggestion.

(+4)

This is a damn good VN, and it came from fucking /v/ of all places.  Based devs. 

(+5)

Our generations katawa shoujo.

(+3)

It's been a while, since a play this kind of game.
I laughed, I cringed, I worried, I cried with the characters, even Naomi. This game was so great on so many level.

if i could retry this game without any memory from it , I would play it again! Felt really lucky playing it.

Thank you for this game. 

(+5)

I feel a bit late to the party playing this but honestly one of the best VNs I've played somehow

(+2)

It's never too late to enjoy this masterpiece

(+2)

I can't believe this came from a ragtag group of /v/irgins run by a furry scalie and a BR with 140 ping.

Seriously. It evoked real emotions from me, and made a better high-school simulator than a fatlus game. I'm too happy knowing this was more than your average everyday shitpost but an advanced shitpost where you actually sought to make an above-and-beyond enjoyable game for people.

But enough dick-sucking from me. I left a small present for you guys as my way of saying thanks and please make more. (From ...4c32)

(+4)

Wow... I don't think I've been this sad to not be able to re-enjoy a game ever. Such a heartwarming experience and a heart crushing one at the same time. I sadly got ending 1 on my first run, and damn... kinda wish I was paying more attention. I played through ending 4 though, and it was truly a magical experience. Never has a VN ever made me invested as such.

I hope all of you who worked on this find a good outlet to put that talent into, because this shit slaps. If the game didn't end the way it did, I'd say to make a sequel, but it's beautiful on it's own

Now all it needs left is finished art and voice acting lol, though being completely honest, I'd absolutely love to see this game voice acted and once again beat GVH at something they promised. Keep up the good work, Cavemanon!!!!

(1 edit) (+3)

This is probably the best vn I've ever played. It made me feel a lot of emotions, with being funny, to somewhat "wow that was really depressing". On my first playthrough I of course got ending 3, the "good" ending. But honestly it didn't feel like it was.

(SPOILERs)

When I finished the 3rd ending, it felt wrong, not to misunderstand this. It was a cute ending, it just didn't feel right. The fact Fang leaves everything behind to be a new person is understandable, but after three years and she still hasn't improved mentally somewhat and ONLY talks to anon, just doesn't sit right. It definitely doesn't scream healthy, someone shouldn't be attached to someone that immensely.  I literally felt my heart sink when the credits rolled after that one last line, like damn it had me emotional but I wished that wasn't how it went (which isn't a bad thing). 

(NO SPOILERS)

That's why this game is so great to me. It made me want to play again and try and fix the mistakes I made in the first playthrough when getting the "good" end. It felt like I could do better, and when you get someone to feel that way, you know you did something right.  This game even got me excited a bit for the actual game coming soon. I praise the people who made this work of art. A funny, emotional, addicting ride for a vn game. (ps, loved the Spear cameo)

If you get ending three on your first playthrough and wish to remain a happy man you should stop there.

Cool

Easily, the BEST visual novel game I have ever played. The dialogue properly ranges from funny to excessively depressing, the characters (especially Fang) have very real feeling, 3d personalities. The artwork and game polish is consistent the entire way through, quality on par if not better than most for-money VNs on the market. Amazing game, looking forward to updates and maybe potential extra content!

First Visual Novel ever, I used to make fun of people who played them. 

Never again.

Thanks for disrupting my life, assholes. I love you all.

Well I just saw the art book, although I wasn't expecting NSFW content but it's welcome.

Of all the images my favorites are:, anon's fall, longpants, wife

but the one I liked the most is the unknown(3), you just made my day, the rest of the content is also good between the storyboards, memes and some weird stuff ?.

Thanks for the art book  and looking forward to future updates.

Ohh so you update the game and the saves from previous versions are not compatible.

if you think I'm going to replay the game and get all 4 endings again, let me tell you.

That you're damn right.

Pd: still didn't even get all the endings in the patch3 xd.

Thanks for the update.

(+2)

I don't play a lot of VNs, but for what it's worth, this is among the best I've played. I was ready to write it off as a joke at first, which it kind of still is, but the story and characters are so much more, goes so much deeper, than "get the girl", I wholeheartedly recommend this.

That said there are some minor hickups here and there, glitchy animation, repeating messages, spelling errors, but nothing major.

(1 edit) (+3)

I've been playing through this again and again for the past few days. I am absolutely in love this vn.

I also played around with the script and learned how to add a choice to not check Fangs phone. Leaving it alone even gives you +1 anonscore.

I also have an idea for an alternate ending for Route 2 that's sort of a reverse mirror to Route 3's ending. I posted the general idea in an older /snoot/ thread but I could post the prompt here or send it if you're interested.

Edit: The reason behind this being that I was using the debug counter, saw that I had 3 Anon points and 5 Fang points and it still gave ending 2. Anons 3 points were from waiting for Fang to finish venting, waiting for Fang with Naser and Naomi, and talkingto/waiting for Trish.

I feel like that Anon should be mature enough not to get too drunk and sperg out on the beach. I don't think he deserves ending 2 just because he joked about laughing at the concert and practices proper cable management.

I've started typing some out myself but I'm not really that good at writing.

>pic unrelated I just like qt 3.14 dino gf and her dino nuggies

im going to regret this.....

EDIT: I didn't

I really, really enjoyed this. I'm not a fan of visual novels, but after endless shilling on /v/, I gave it a go and was pleasantly surprised at how funny the game was and attached to the characters I became.  There were a few typos, and repeated lines of dialogue, but overall working as expected. Loved the references and in-jokes.

Ending reviews: (spoilers maybe)

1 - Feels like shock value more than anything, wouldn't miss it if it was removed from the game. AFAIK the only way to reach this ending through normal gameplay is to be the worst person imaginable.

2 - Depressingly realistic, sometimes there is no happy ending, there is no closure, I feel this is the best representation of that.

3 - This is the one I achieved through normal, wholesome gameplay on my first playthrough, and I feel like it's better than 4, and what most people wanted out of this game, to see Lucy and Anon get together.

4 - Potential to be the best, and I imagine that this is meant to be the "true" ending, as all characters become reformed, but this has a huge downside of emotional detachment, due to the fact there is no development for this. Characters like Trish are just manipulative and disgusting, and then *boom* 5 years later, she's good now. Makes it hard to appreciate the change in character

(+3)

The funny thing is, there are a lot of 4chan users that when discussing the game mentioned that they naturally got ending 1. Goes to show that this game did accurately portray just how some people can fuck things up socially and just not realize it.

(+1)(-1)

ay fuck you man

(1 edit)

I got the first one. I need to be dragged into the street and shot

(+4)

for what this is, it's lovely and incredibly genuine. thank you based cavemanon.

(1 edit) (+4)

An apology for such a long text.

I finally got the 4 endings, first of all thank you very much for making this beautiful game, when I saw the game I found the art interesting so I decided to give it a try, I never imagined that I would experience so many emotions.

My first ending was the third one, at the beginning I liked it but as I advanced to the end, it left me with a bittersweet taste as if I had forgotten something important.

I played again and ended up getting the third ending 2 more times, then I decided to take a completely different course, that way I got the first one, and as I progressed I saw a problem looming, near the end I knew I should change but it was too late, when I see the final msj, I knew it was over, but I did not imagine it would end in such a way.

I decided to pay more attention, and I ended up getting the fourth ending, I discovered that it was important that I did not take into account in the third ending, from a certain moment the way in which everything develops is like the day and night of the others, at the end the development of the characters although it felt like a big jump, I was satisfied with the way in which the protagonists end.

I already had 3 endings and seeing the pattern that was repeated, I knew that the second one would not be a sweet ending, but I never expected something like this.

Of the 4 endings the 2nd was the one that felt the most real to me, I literally fell apart seeing how the main characters end.

For those of you who decide to read this far, I recommend that you play the game first as my experience with it may end up being spoilers.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The last words that anon says to himself when he sees Fang again, were almost exactly the same words I said to myself years ago going through something similar, thinking that everything could be solved if only he would come closer and try to start everything from scratch, in a part of me I hoped he would talk to her but he didn't, that feeling of thinking that everything could be fixed but not having the courage to take the first step, I carried that feeling for years and by the time I decided to give myself the courage it was too late, I lost my lifelong friend, I can't help but feel that I abandoned him, now I will never see him again, if only I had approached him again maybe by having someone to look out for him, I would still have a friend to visit and not this grave, I write this with a lump in my throat.

Thank you again for this game, although it reminded me of the regret that I will never get over, I was also able to remember the good times.

This game has earned a place in my heart.

(+6)

Honestly when the actual game comes out, I'm gonna view it as a fangame of snoot game lmao.

(+1)

(+3)

It has its funny moments; the writing is okay -not too edgy, not too safe-

The MC isn't good (his spongy personality and dialogues are hit or miss), the other characters are somewhat interesting.

OST is serviceable; it has FLCL vibes, which is good. The portraits/drawings are on the plus side.
