NOTE:
This is only a 15-20 minutes long prologue.
It does not feature the championship.
My game is not great, my game might not be good at all, but i sure have learned from feedback how to improve my skills in this field. I hope that you will give this game a chance, and perhaps give me feedback wich makes me better in making games in the future. Since this game is my first game, thus not the best, and since it has a very untraditional design that many will propably hate, we chose to not charge for this game. It will be free to download and play.

FEATURES
- Visual Novel conversations with western cel-shaded visuals
- A softcore sci-fi with a realistic and achievable depiction of near-future VR
- Experimental untraditional game
- Challenging shooting segments
- Hybrid orchestral soundtrack

THF2D was among other reasons, born out of the wish for 2D indie-games that offered other visuals than the retro style. The game was developed using modern HQ cel-shading 2D visuals.

The score was composed utilizing Hollywood softwares such as Vienna Strings and cutting-edge sound design packages to provide a colourful soundtrack ranging from AAA-orchestral music, electronical and some lower quality tunes. Whether we have succeeded in making a worthy product or not........is entirely up to the audience to decide.
