I've decided I wanna start recommending stuff here every so often! And I'll start with throwing out one for Spare Parts, a VN series by an acquaintance I feel is kinda underappreciated for how much hard work obviously goes into it. I originally played the first part back when I was going through my thankfully-pretty-brief treatment for liver cancer back in 2021, and it did a lot to raise my spirits at the time.
I feel like I'm bad at describing other people's work in a way that captures what makes it special gracefully, but in short, it's a episodic story about a bunch of robots abandoned in a basement that starts off as mostly slice-of-life comedy, but has mystery and drama undertones that eventually grow to become the focus of the plot. The whole thing has a very carefully-cultivated sentimental atmosphere that makes the story feel more than just the sum of its parts, and the character work is some of the strongest I've seen in the medium - I don't think there's a single member of the cast I ended up not being intrigued by. The wordcount is also quite hefty for a western VN, which often feel overly-streamlined to me, and the attention to detail is kind of incredible with that in mind.
It's not really got a lot in common with TFTBN in terms of tone or genre staples, buuuuuut if you like somewhat Umineko-inspired works that try to break down certain topics in novel ways by approaching them with a roundabout sci-fi premise and/or are a weird and specific type of yuri pervert with broader horizons than just whatever the fuck I'm doing, then you will probably get something out of it!
