METANORN Presents ~Met’Amour~
*DRUMROLLS* A METANORN[dot]Net Production
Gotta catch ’em all
Muhawahahahahaaa! Just as planned… I’m sorry, but I can’t contain myself right now. I feel like I have just won a marathon race in Olympics because it seriously feels like it. After days, weeks and almost months, this project is finally complete! If you have been a site regular and following our shenanigans since February, you must be attuned to the fact that we have been up to no good. Well, it’s more than a cook up because it goes beyond the scope of this website as it is more than ambitious.
Honestly speaking, this update was strictly for Valentine’s Day but the said project took so much time in completion; you can guess from the duration of alpha to beta, which took around two months. I’ll not bore you with how much work we put in, you can simply read the credits below for that. However, it’s definitely a Metanorn Team baby and we have nurtured it to grow up since January 10, 2011. Following is just a glimpse of the team effort at final phase after which the first RC was launched at a temporary link and few of our friends and site regulars helped in pointing out some bugs.
Click to Enlarge: The most EPIC SPREADSHEET EVER!!!
As you can guess right now, Metanorn’s Matchmaking Special Service was just a teaser. The real deal is “Met’Amour”, a dating sim game, visual novel style. There, I said it. I would like to thank everyone who nominated one or the other character, showcased above. Rather than just giving you one character, we are giving out eight routes in total with some surprises thrown in. You will be playing the main male/female protagonist of the story. I might post more details as we track how everyone of you is doing and your feedback but we humbly hope that you would like whatever we did with it; discovering the many twists and turns of the storyline. What it’s all about? Well, go play and find out!
If you check out our main menu, you will see the Met’Amour page added. For feedback or reporting problems with the game you might have during play, just comment below. Simple fact; this is flash-based so do update your flash player before starting the game. Some tips:
- We have checked the cross-browser compatibility in Chrome, FF and IE. No other browsers were tested, let us know if you face any issues as we only did with FF Beta version, which disables arrow function.
- Not every file loads in the beginning because we have cut this off in levels to save your bandwidth and load time. Let the love flow and load depending on your net connection. xD
- Recommended Configuration:
- Windows XP/Vista/7, Mac OSX or Linux
- Adobe Flash Player 9 or better
- 1GHz Processor or better
- 1Gb of RAM or better
- As you can probably guess, I’m not revealing all the information here. There’s a lot to be discovered and what’s the fun if I give you all the tips right now? You are however free to share information and strategize among yourselves with rife discussion.
Metanorn has spun a new tale of aniblogging, you can say. Since I took over, my goal has always been increasing interaction between the authors and readers. The reason to introduce JustChat, comment system and more active twitter accounts was just the beginning. We would not go the forum-way ever, but there will be plenty of opportunity in the near future to simply have fun with us. So, look forward to it!
You can read detailed credit on the Met’Amour page or the first version below but I have to say this here again: We dedicate this game to ALL METANORN FOLLOWERS. Thank you for hanging out with us. Also, quickly, thanks to our beta testers, who are not included in the below credits:
- Junko, Baka_girl, Bass, TSRL, Baku, Anaaga, Ness, EgoJCs21, etc.
You can move to credits now that scrolls up and down with your mouse pointer. Till next update, Ja ne~

Flags, how can you be that mean … ?!
TT^TT
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 126 comments
Yeah inorite?! I kept failing at Flag’s part TWICE, he apparently doesn’t like FMA, I kept picking that option XD
POWUH: Meta Resident and Metanorn's Hime-chan~ with 1758 comments
Not liking FMA is just INHUMAN!!
Just you wait, real Flags !!! *-* I am going to pursue you, God’s Words!!!
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Thanks, Namika-chan~ <333
I've tweaked Flags a bit so hopefully in an hour or two, he might become less difficult.
Also, try Bakemonogatari next time. Remember, it was best anime for 2010. xD

POWUH: Meta Resident and Metanorn's Hime-chan~ with 1758 comments

I can’t get Shinji for the love of me and I don’t want to try again because Flags is scary when you loose twice ;__;
I’m a real pimp with the girls though….
POWUH: Meta Resident and Metanorn's Hime-chan~ with 1758 comments
XD That’s interesting!!!!!
And I’m proud I could get Shinji :3
POWUH: Lovely-pyon~ with 339 comments
Seriously though. Have some sort of soft spot for Kana though, she’s so pretty~
I won at the Shouta too (Hisoka) but shouta’s are kinda girls in a way arn’t they? XD

POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments

POWUH: Meta Resident and Metanorn's Hime-chan~ with 1758 comments
Poor FLAGS??? *_*
Aren’t you a bit mistaken there??? 😀
I swear, I was seriously freaked out when I failed with him 😀 Shinji wasn’t so scary, but Flags… I swear, I won’t be able to talk to him calmly in the nearest future ^^”
not that we talk much >.>POWUH: Lovely-pyon~ with 339 comments
agree, I think I made some sort of suprised/terrified sound when everything went all….crazy DX I like my memory, Flags, please let me beee /cry
POWUH: Meta Resident and Metanorn's Hime-chan~ with 1758 comments
Flags is a bad person.
*sob*

POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 107 comments

First I was like omg, I have never had the chance to play a game like that but I have always wanted so Dream Come True… But I´m really bad at knowing facts about each of you, I have been following metanorn a few years but still I don´t know what Metanorn Really is and I´m so stupid I don´t even know how it´s possible to join and do a profile.
So I have to say, this game is really awesome and the idea is cool, but it made me at the same time really sad. I´m holding my tears when I failed so harch, I really found myself to like one of them and then when he bacame so mad and everybody else even if I didn´t know what I had done wrong.
So you can say I´m ready to burst in tears. The game idea is cool, but that Really hurt. First time I have the chance to play a game like it, it hurts me so bad I have a bad taste in my mouth and I try to hold my tears…
I say, outch.. *tries not to cry* I´m sorry..
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Dawww this has been lots of fun preparing and getting finished, took us quite a long time to get things up to speed.
Thanks! I think the game came out really well too 😀
-hug-
POWUH: Meta Team and The Mad Scientist with 5525 comments
I’m glad our game made your dream come true! I’ve always wanted to play a game like this too, actually. Metanorn isn’t something you really JOIN, you just comment around and explore, like you’re doing right now :3
Oh, one of the characters was harsh? Probably Tayrin or Flags. ^^ Don’t worry, I got verbally abused too and felt the same. Some of the characters just have really harsh personalities. Aww, don’t be discouraged though. *patpat* You can always hunt around the site for info or maybe someone will make a strategy guide one day? XD Who knows?
POWUH: Meta Resident and Metanorn's Hime-chan~ with 1758 comments
So, I hope, you learned from this!!!
Lurking is baaaaaad *,*
I’ve been here for more than a year and I never saw you O_O Don’t lurk anymore O.O Nee?? :3
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 126 comments
I don’t think you can make a profile, you mean how to get a gravatar picture?, making a blog is a different matter xD
It’s okay, don’t cry~ the characters can be mean if you don’t pass their test. You don’t need any knowledge at all, when your playing the game click on your partner and read all the info~ based on their personalities try to figure out what they like/hate. It’s really not hard, just keep trying 🙂
POWUH: 400-499 with 428 comments
When something is created by the team of Metanorn, what else can it be but sheer awesomeness?
Just started playing but it’s well thought out, with allt he different dialogue and music, just like one officially made, though yours would have the upperhand because it’s Metanorn made: enough said 🙂
Laughing at the little references slipped in, nice jobu~desu Metanorn!
PS. Will this mean the start of competition against the Nasuverse? Metanorn vs Nasuverse? I don’t think my life could be anymore complete 🙂
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
So awesome I love all the music 😀 😀
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
OMG…. Did you just compare us to… Nasuverse?! *spazzes in a corner*
Thank you for all the compliments! It’s great to see people appreciating something that we worked so hard on. So, thanks a lot but how can we compare with the great Type-Moon?! It’s just a dream, I tell you. Just a dream! xD
POWUH: Metanorn Lover with 222 comments
I wouldn’t have completed anything without your help, Junko ; A ; You did a lot too!
POWUH: Metanorn Lover with 222 comments
Sneaking on after coming back to school to see this.
INDESCRIBABLE FEELING, BBY.
But I didn’t do much, seriously(I was so late in everything, hnng.) Props goes to Kyokai and everyone else for doing so much of the story boarding! And especially to Will who programmed the whole thing.
..*sob cries*
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Amazing job to you captain on the drawings! And all of us working together to complete this epic project! 🙂
POWUH: 400-499 with 428 comments
Wait, wait, wait…my happy ending with Kyokai? SWEET! (Even if there was utter rejection by Samidare…*tear…) On to another route for crazy, wacky awesomeness!
POWUH: Meta Team and PreCure Mastah with 9203 comments
Yeah I got a bad end when I talked to Kyo XD
Dawww Samirdare <3

Your salvation is in trying again.
POWUH: iLurker with 8 comments
O: Soo cool seeing this makes me sad and excited. Sad because I am too lazy to try anything like this myself and Excited because OMG its one that is in english and doesn’t need to be rated R! ^_^ I am so happy that you guys made this
POWUH: iLurker with 8 comments
u.u I got hated by Jiro and Flags seemed like he wanted me dead on the spots. Those profiles in the game didn’t help this poor soul. I am throwing in the towel and begging for a guide ;_; i tried 4 times and failed each
POWUH: Meta Team and The Mad Scientist with 5525 comments
I failed Jiro’s and Flag’s too…
lol a fanmade guidebook to Metamour. Come on guys, do it!
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Hmmm, who wants to make a guide of this? We would actually welcome it. xD
POWUH: Lovely-pyon~ with 339 comments
So, when’s the anime coming out? XD
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
LOL! That would be a lot of work.
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 88 comments
HOLY BILL OF RIGHTS THIS IS AMAZING
I can’t believe you guys made something like this!
Seriously, I am blown away!!
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
Hahahaa! I hope you enjoyed the heck out of it. We had the surprise element in mind. ^^
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 88 comments
Eeeeh~~ Kyo is my mom!? How cute —!! XD
POWUH: Meta Resident and Metanorn's Hime-chan~ with 1758 comments
Kyokai as your O’kaa-sama is like the most epic thing ever!!!! XD
POWUH: Metanorn Regular with 88 comments
For real! I was expecting Flags to be my dad but when I asked he just insulted me.
The characters are so in-character…. “orz
POWUH: Meta Team and Ringleader Extraordinaire~ with 6433 comments
@Namika, deshou~
@Vivi, give the scripters applause for keeping everyone in-character. Was quite hard to be rude. ^^
