(Picture a crowded auditorium on the first day of school. Hundreds of aspiring musicians have all come together in hopes of becoming genres. The camera shifts to a wall which bears the logo for Freed University: a big F.U. The lights dim and the marching band plays the schools alma mater: "Somebody to Love" by Queen. The Dean enters the auditorium and walks toward the podium.)
Dean- Good morning, everyone.
Everyone- Good morning.
Dean- As some of you might remember from pre-orientation, I am Dean Parks and this is Freed University. This music college will be your safe haven from actually finishing high school to pursue your dreams of becom

Narrator: So after "flirting" with women at the bar, Glam and the 17 remaining women head to the arcade.

Aside from Glam: I never understood why the stereotype exists that women don't like video games. I think it's because they didn't grow up with the good stuff.
Glam: I used to have fond memories of wasting quarters on this game at the pizza place. You know the one off the corner of Winslow and Arizona?
Amie: Is that place still open?
Glam: Yeah, I used to have a summer job there. They used to watch me play during breaks.

Since 2009, I've been posting webcomics, stories and artwork. In 2011, I began posting my webcomic "The History of Rock & Roll". I've met a lot of cool people through these comics and have shared a lot of great music in the process. But most of those people have left and the workflow has laid dormant since I began my latest project.
I played the game recently. It's an awesome visual novel that I'm glad I got to experience! Wildfire is a very realistic coming-of-age story about starting a band while in high school. The pacing of the story is such that you really felt like the band’s success was earned through hard work and perseverance.

Plot: "Smart Girls" tells a story about of a high school quiz bowl team competing in a city wide academic-challenge tournament. While the girls are exceptionally bright, their school doesn't exactly have a good reputation and they've been written off as underdogs who don't stand a chance.
Gameplay The gimmick of this game is that the player will actually get to participate in the competition by answering questions in real time. The further you progress through the tournament, the more story you unlock, giving the player an incentive to answer questions correctly. The moderator will read off a category and give each team a chance to answer th
