Large PonPon (ら～じPonPon Raji Ponpon) is the first game that 0verflow created, and it established the setting that most of the later games, including the Days series, grew out of. It was released in 1999, followed by PureMail the following year.
Although it was the first game produced, it is not the first chronologically. Two characters appear as old ladies in this game who appear as young ladies in a later game while one cameos as a mother, making them prequels to this.
Story[]
A new father?
Ayumu Inou's girlfriend, Rurika Washino, drops a bombshell on him: she'll be transferring to Paris for her new job. They then have sex one last time for good memories. Four months later, Rurika returns, with another bombshell: she's pregnant. After a heated argument, Rurika takes off.
Ayumu later discovers that Rurika is in a maternity ward, where he also crosses paths with childhood friend Yukari Nagawa and begins an affair with Touri Sawagoe, another maternity patient. Will Ayumu be able to reconcile with Rurika?
