HoloCozy is a room customization game where players spend time with five hololive talents drawn in pixel art: Tokino Sora, Usada Pekora, Shiranui Flare, Shirogane Noel, and Houshou Marine. The talents autonomously work, rest, and sleep based on their stamina and mood, and players earn coins from these activities to buy furniture. Some furniture changes how talents behave. The game includes a smartphone interface for checking talent status, managing collections, and redesigning the room. It also offers BGM and ambient sound playback, stream notifications, schedule management, and a Pomodoro timer to support daily tasks. HoloCozy is scheduled for release within 2026, with a price to be announced. The store page is now accepting wishlist registrations. Supported languages are Japanese and English. The game is part of holo Indie, a brand for fan-made games created under COVER's game creator support program.","whyItMatters":"This is the first holo Indie title to feature Tokino Sora alongside hololive 3rd generation members, signaling a broader use of the fan-made game brand beyond its initial lineup.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eNinth Games is the developer behind HoloCozy, with its own official site at ninthgames.com.\u003c/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThe game\u0026#39;s official X account is @holocozy, and the Steam store page is live at store.steampowered.com/app/5040220/HoloCozy/.\u003c/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eCCMC, a wholly owned subsidiary of COVER Corporation established October 10, 2023, handles game production support and publishing for the brand.\u003c/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThe in-game smartphone lets players check talent status, view collections, and change room design, in addition to the daily-life tools.\u003c/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eStream notifications arrive directly on the PC when a talent starts or schedules a stream, not just in-game.\u003c/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThe Pomodoro timer allows freely configurable focus and break times, and the calendar supports adding and managing daily schedules.\u003c/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eBGM and ambient sound playback adjusts to the scene, such as during work or breaks.\u003c/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThe rights notice lists three parties: © COVER, © CCMC Corp., and © Ninth Games.\u003c/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eholo Indie is described as a collective term for fan-made game brands under COVER\u0026#39;s game creator support program, aimed at co-creating with fans and creators worldwide.\u003c/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eThe brand\u0026#39;s stated goal is to provide a return ecosystem that supports fan-made creators\u0026#39; continued activity and delivers a wider variety of games to fans.\u003c/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDetails on the brand reference COVER\u0026#39;s Fan Works Guidelines, published at hololivepro.com/terms/.\u003c/li\u003e\n\u003c/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c/p\u003e","blueskyPost":"HoloCozy lets hololive talents live on your desktop, working and sleeping based on their stamina and mood.
