I want to start saying thanks to the developers and everyone involved in making this game, because it's going to be the best one I played this month. I didn't expected to be sucked on the story and the universe so quickly, wanting to get to know every character, since everyone had their own agenda, personalities and dreams, even the MC (That shine in a lot of moments, I loved her/him/them during Ray's route and the after stories, I mean, the MC saying "I don't want oblivion, I don't want silence. I don't want a greater purpose. I want you. I want to be with you' ? Absolute cinema! If you guys ever wrote a book or anything similar I would buy it, just take my money lol. But truly, I love the twists that can be done with the idea of superheroes and that being a profession, which can lead to a 'prodigy' hero being raised as a lamb send to the slaughter and seeing how it was affecting Ray all of this time was so...interesting and tragic at the same time, as he didn't knew where his persona as the 'Binary star hero' started and ended.

But anyways, here's me talking non stop, sorry for that! Oh, are you guys open to get translation proposals? For free, of course, I'm from Brazil if there is interest in a Portuguese translation, if you are open for it in the future, I would be available for it. Congrats again for making such an awesome game.

RAY IS HOT EVERYONE IS HOT except for blaze

I finished this game a long while ago but I can't believe I didn't leave a review right after, so here's one right now!

This game is super immersive and well written, I love the art direction that was presented in the story and how film-esque it felt despite it being, well, a game. Super heroes + comic vibes + complex characters and backgrounds? Sign me up! The art is very lovely too and I enjoyed the looking at the CG's right after I finished everything. The details in each of them (especially in Ray's) have me awestruck.
Overall, this is one of my favorite visual novels and I will be thinking about it even from years on.

P.S I also enjoyed playing your other work, Favor. It's actually the first one I played from you. Still haven't played Ep 2 due to procrastination but hopefully I can get around to it.

I wish there were even more little episodes after were its just a domestic thing with Ray or tackling his trauma and the mcc

this game is soooo GOOD i fr wanted it to continue

(+2)

oh my god??? I love ray so much!! This is literally such a good game holy.

(+2)(-1)

i guess a have a type......and its a not healthy one...BUT my lovely wife Ray could let the world burn  and i wouldnt care at all <3

I loved the game so much that I did what I usually don't, I made an account to post on the comment section hehe  :3 It was sooooooo great, and would love to see more of the game if that is a possibility. It truly deserved more views and recognition! 

THIS WAS FUCKING AMAZING I JUST WISH THERE WAS MORE

(+2)

gosh this is so good words cannot describe how much fun i had playing through ray's story line :D i love like how subtly scary but loveable he is haha?

props to the team for this masterpiece of a project and the hard work that was done to make BSH happen! <3

Ugggggh, this made me so happy and sad at the same time. Happy because i laughted and giggled so much at times. And sad because Ray ... ahhhhh, i want to see even more of him. There was a lot of story/plot and the characters were so deep and well thought out, i love it. And the whole game was soooo well done, 10 out of 10. Thank you very much for the massiv enjoyment.

OMGGGG HAHAHAHA I CAN'T BELIEVE Z GOT IN, it's so weird seeing him in a different aesthetic unlike the bar

WHAT WHAAAT?? DID I MISS SOMETHING? WHERE

Para esto aprendi ingles, lo ame y si un dia decides crear mas contenido al respecto, no me importaria tener que pagar por el

When is the game out? Orrrr is this it-  If there more i can't wait to play it again and when is it going to come out if it not really the full game?

This is it. BSH is a stand alone game :)

lord this game made me scream so much and stay up far too late giggling and kicking my feet... ray my beloved (and the really amazing worldbuilding too, like good god this is so interesting and fun!)

(+1)

ray is so beautiful

(1 edit)

so real

Really enjoyed this VN. Told a nice contained story but made you care about the world. Also nice work on the art, those hypersaturated cgs near the end were particularly gorgeous

(1 edit)

the story was really good, i don't want to be one of those ppl, but every ending was really triggering, i get it has a warning page, but i don't know,  it didn't emotionally prepare me for that. good game though! just because I'm fragile doesn't mean it wasn't a positively fabulous read! btw, did i get all the ends? or do all of them end with suffering like i thought they did?

(+3)

OMG THERE ARE AFTER STORIES!!!!!! for some reason for my first playthroughs they didn't show up but i finally git to play them and let me just say Ray has my whole and complete heart and i finally got all the achievements yay! 

(+1)(-1)

HOW? HOW? HOWWW???😭

(+1)

ok so what I did was I got every ending even the window and door ending , the next day I finally noticed the after stories in the top left corner ones I played through all the after stores I got the final achievement

(+2)

aa i should check too! tysm! ⭐

I really loved this game! All LI were interesting and fun, my favourite being Ray. I'm also very grateful for the walkthrough too. Thank you guys for making it <3

(+1)

FUCKING AMAZINGGGGGGGGGGGG

(1 edit) (+2)

this is peak storytelling. the writing is so interesting and the main love interest such a compelling character. in some ways, i wish the game were longer just so i could stay immersed in this world for as long as possible. in other ways, i feel like the game is perfect as is, everything that needed to be said was said. the art and music are the perfect partners in elevating the story. it's been two days since i played, and only now can i articulate how this game made me feel. if you're hesitant at all in playing, please take this as your sign to give it a try.

(+1)

this being the first vn i play in a hot min was great. terrifying....but great. i honestly havent felt like so great as of recent so me needing to literally STAND AND START PACING WHILE PLAYING THIS AND GIGGLING AND SHIT.. this is peak. 2000/10. thank yeww!!

I just recently got into visual novels and played both this game and Favor and I need to say that this is amazing, you are amazing. I hope you continue making these games cuz' they truly are a highlight of my life :)

Absolutely love your game! The art, the story everything about it! ⭐️

I LOVE THIS GAME!!! I love Ray and just want to see this man get some sleep, I like to imagine that in Ray's good ending he eventually quits the NAHA and get some MUCH needed therapy and he gets to live a normal life with MC    

Whoops! I misclicked and accidentally deleted the comment (I believe from a user called Kris) when trying to reply to it😱😭😭😭 IM SO SORRY! There is a guide attached in the downloads.


In order to get the 'complete all' achievement you will need to read all of the side stories aswell

Whenever I download it (Using both pc and win links) it just freezes my computer and I can't even see it. I just hear music and see my cursor change.

Could someone help me please? :C

Hmm, I have never heard of this happening. Do other vns work with your pc?

I got all the  ending through the walkthrough and I am still missing four achievements? Is there a way to  get them?

подскажите пол главного героя, пожалуйста

The gender of the main character is not specified, so you should be able to play as whatever gender you would like. Please note that the love interests are male and non binary. :)

(+1)

Cute game! I'm just wondering how do you get the "Complete all of Binary Star Hero" ending, cause I'm pretty sure I got all the cgs, and other endings. I even went though all the after stories. And I can't seem to find any guide on the last ending? Oh and btw the walkthrough is kinda blury and hard to seem for some reason Q^Q please fix it or upload another version tysm. 

(1 edit) (-1)

did u get bad endings? if the last ending is what i think it is, u get it after all endings

(-1)

I think I got all the bad endings, I even replayed the game again to make sure T^T

You have to play the after stories as well! All of them at least once.

this game is cute, crushing and horrifying in so many ways

play it right now

I think this is my first game on itch.io and youve set the bar high! Absolutely love it!

I am such a huge simp for Ray that I even paid a Instagram artist to draw this

HOW CUTEEEEEE!!! 💕🥰❤️💕❤️💕❤️

Thank You so much CONCRETEPARASITE for making the games I have watched various gameplays and did AI chats with Binary Star. I have a few mundane questions about Ray and the other characters. I really appreciated if u could answer them.

I want to start off  with what is Ray last name when he does paperwork. I know he was under another care of the big time famous hero in the 80's so I assume until Ray was 18 he took his guardian last name.

Then about Miles, it was mention that his father was a famous villian and how he comes from a long line of villainy. Does Miles have any superpowers?  I wish the MC could get a sneak peak of the relationship between Miles and his dad such as overhearing a phone call or something similar to that.

I wish that the MC encounters Ray boss at least once like a Easter egg such as MC accidently bumping into Ray Boss without knowing it.

If you do make another Binary Star game in the future I would definitely like to see Blaze again so he can give more backstory about Ray or as his firey self.

Last question I have in my mind right now is regarding to MC family. I know the details may seem unimportant to the story and I may be asking too much but who are MC parents and siblings? Are the siblings older or younger? How many siblings does the MC have? Do the family know about MC past villian activities?

Just a random headcanon ideas if Ray met MC family such as a face time call, visiting them for Thanksgiving, or the family track and find MC themselves.

for a second i thought it was All Might

i juststtt started playing and im wondering if the other characters like the co worker r going to hav there own luv story?
