Shadows Over Willowbrook || Gacha Voice Acted Series
Project Overview
In the quiet little town of Willowbrook, misery isn’t just an emotion-it’s a way of life. The streets feel heavy, the people looked drained, and joy is nothing more than a rumor. No one questions it anymore. No one… except four middle schoolers who refuse to accept the gloom as “normal.”
