This is a project focused primarily on plot. It follows the life of the main character, Linus, from boyhood to adulthood. In truth, this is more of a character study than a traditional rpg storyline. There are no crystals to collect, no damsels to save, and no great evil to vanquish. It is simply a chronicle of the life of one person and the world that he lives in.

(If you couldn't tell, I am terrible at summaries.)

- Sideview battle system.
- A realistic, dramatic storyline with a cast of nuanced characters.
- Lengthy and involved optional sidequests which enhance the storyline of the main plot.
- Custom soundtrack

Preview video for upcoming release

https://youtu.be/x2p8Ka8BFIM


Hello everyone! Here is a preview video for the upcoming demo. It shows off a bit of the dungeon exploration/time-of-day system I've been working on as well as a tiny peek at the Emotions and Conditions status system. The video also tips off that the game will now have *a lot* more choices to make as a player.

There are no battles in this video, owing to the fact that I'm still putting the finishing touches on the game's custom battle system. There will be battles in the next demo release, however. :p

Anyway, enjoy the video! See you on the next release!

@Punk_Kricket Wow! Thanks so much for playing through the demo! It doesn't get much attention these days so your mini-review was a welcome surprise. I'm super stoked you enjoyed it and are looking forward to the rest of it. The complete game is still a LONG ways off but I'll be posting a longer demo at some point which includes the game's first few chapters. :)
Hey! are you planning to upload an updated version of your demo?

I am. The current plan is to have it ready by the end of the year. But who knows if I'll meet that deadline. I'm very bad at being a game developer.

Lol, I'm the same as you. I can't wait for this game release in 2030! just kidding. I want to see you break the mold of incomplete games that have so much potential to be a very great game. Such a large number of RPG Maker incomplete games will never be finished. I see it in my fantasies this game will be highlighted and featured!
I have to say, I have played the opening demo. I haven't completed it so far but I am very impressed! It is a masterpiece and I grew attached to the characters. It doesn't have the type of story in a game I like play generally speaking considering there are so many characters to note who all play a role in the plot and too many things are happening on even only the introduction itself which will most likely be forgotten by the player later. I have forgotten so many names already but I can make out the basics of what is happening and know what the main characters are struggling for. The story is very dark and captures the atmosphere of war. The way you used your music was perfect and it fits the theme of your game perfectly. I am excited to know what happens next. I have played it for over an hour and that's pretty long for me considering I only get the weekends to play through indie games if I can and I'm generally busy on my own projects.

I will be continuing this, you can count on it.
@Martimus Wow, thank you for the kind words! You're right on with your criticisms about there being a bit too much info crammed down the player's throat at the start. I did cut out a few scenes and made some of them shorter. I think it flows a bit better now.

Let me know what you think of the full prologue if you finish it!
I'll do more than that, I'm going to add a review because I finished it. I took me just over 2 hours.
@Martimus That's great. Looking forward to reading it.
Nice to see you've got back to this! The video you released recently looks really good. :)
I sincerely hope you're still working on this. I finally managed to find time to play through the demo, and it's gorgeous. If you're ever looking for collaborators to help you with some of the minutia, whether it's scripting, graphics, editing or testing etc, by all means let me know. I completely understand the feeling of wanting to take on a project by yourself, it's your baby, your masterpiece, but goddamn I so badly want to see the finished product.

Wow thanks! Still working on this, just very very slowly due to IRL stuff. And wow, that's such a kind offer! I'm not sure if I need any help at the moment but I might take you up on that at some point. You're a super talented dev! :)
