COTE: Red Sonata [v0.12.2] By steinercode

steinercode Games released a new game called COTE: Red Sonata and the version is 0.12.2. The game’s story is about COTE: Red Sonata is a fan-made game set in the universe of Classroom of the Elite. This is a brand new story. You won’t find any spoilers related to LN or anime here. It happened. You are now officially a student of ANHS – an elite school with extraordinary rules, designed to prepare you for the harsh reality of adulthood. Meet iconic characters from the series and become friends with them… Or maybe more? From there, the story diverges into two paths: You can either be an ordinary student who just wants to graduate, meet new friends and live a peaceful life… But you can aloo be an evil who will do anything disregarding the consequences – just to win.​

Developer Notes:

Please keep in mind that the game is a fan-based parody. I have nothing to do with the original series owned by Syougo Kinugasa.
Please, support the official release of the upcoming light novels, manga and anime seasons.

• Brand new story with our all beloved characters (more are coming soon).
• No sprites are used in this project. I wanted every scene to be a unique one in it’s own way, without constantly repeating the same character image.
• Licensed Music and Sound design.
• Quite a few animations made in Adobe After Effects.
• NSFW scenes (not many yet, story needs a bigger development).

Questions you may have:

• Is Xgirl going to be added?
  • Probably yes, just in its own time.
• How long before the next update?
  • Hard to say. But the initial plan is to update once in one-two months.
• Is the art AI generated?
  • Not 100%. I find AI generated stuff too unpredictable to generate consistent images, and I also don’t have a powerful enough PC to fully use it. So I’m using AI to enhance my sketches instead. Not using sprites makes this project about 10 times more difficult, but since I’m using AI in some capacity, I’ve decided to take this approach.
