## Gameplay

Main article: Gameplay
The game follows Ame-chan and the player, P-Chan, who is her partner and producer. The goal is to get one million subscribers before 30 days are up. Every day, through a cutesy windows 95-esque user interface, P-Chan can decide what activities Ame-chan does every day in order to grasp new ideas for streams, which will also raise or lower three stats in very different ways: stress, affection, and mental darkness.

Ame-chan can only stream at night, during her live streams, the player has the role of a content moderator tasked with deleting inappropriate comments (super chat donations are untouched though) or highlighting them for Ame to read. Streaming is the main way of increasing her follower count, the most "important" stat and entire reason of the game.

At the end of every activity or stream, Ame will post on tweeter pertaining to them in her main persona account KAngel, and her private account, the latter in which she will usually express her real thoughts. Each day is also split into three stages (Dusk, Night and Tomorrow) and every activity takes up one or two stages. Your stats will directly influence what of the 27 endings the player receives.

## Trivia

* The English version's name was originally meant to be called NEEDY GIRL OVERDOSE as well as its Japanese counterpart, but this was changed because of the mention of drug use in the word, 'overdose'.
* The title is a pun in Japanese; *nīdī* (ニーディー) refers to"2D", i.e. two-dimensional, thus "needy girl" is a double entendre for "2D girl".
* The main processor of the windows themed interface is named "raincandy", alluding to the two different meanings of Ame-chan's name; Rain, and Candy, respectively.
