Two women from the city of Toronto, Canada travel to a small rural area in

　　Ontario. The journey starts off as a means to film a travel documentary, but

　　along the way they end up learning more about each other, and themselves.

　　"I'm comfortable with hiding my face behind a camera. It's like a shield. I feel protected when I hold it in front of me. Besides, it's not sensible for a person to go around chasing dreams all of their life."

　　The Journey of Ignorance is a collaboration between myself and a friend. I did the art and programming, while my friend wrote the story.

　　What is a Visual Novel?

　　A visual novel is a medium in which a story is told using text dialogue/narration and still pictures (or sometimes, fully animated sequences) in a digital format. Visual novels are considered a type of video game. Although some visual novels give the players choices and different story endings, others are completely linear (like this one) and give the player no choices (known as kinetic visual novels).

　　Other than that, there really aren't any other "rules" to what makes a visual novel a visual novel.
