Creation and Development[]
Danganronpa Blowback is a role-playing game made with RPG Maker VX Ace based in the universe of the official Danganronpa series. The developers' team name, MonoLab, was named after Monokuma, the famous mascot of the Danganronpa series. Auxin also served as the team leader.
The worldview and overall development are the same as the official Danganronpa series, but entirely new characters are created and the story is developed in a way that would become separate from the original. The illustrators strove to faithfully replicate the game's graphics to the original Danganronpa art style. It was also stated that the team was greatly inspired by the fan game Danganronpa Another ~ Another Despair Academy ~, made by the Korean game developer LINUJ, when they started producing Danganronpa Blowback.
The trial version of Chapter 1 was released on December 13, 2014, and was followed by the full version of Chapter 1 and Chapter 2. The completed version of the game was distributed on April 3, 2016. Along with the release of the full version, Auxin started a character popularity poll on the game's website.
On October 7, 2016, Auxin stated he had been taking a long time to update the game. He continued to work on the last three chapters, but he said it was still incomplete at that time.
Finally, on May 27, 2017, Auxin officially declared a halt to the game's production. Moreover, the blog profile says that the team leader and the team itself seems to have been disbanded. Due to this, it is likely there will be no future production on the game.
