Based on the classic Japanese novel, this adaptation combines the visuals of the movie version with the deeper character development of the book and novel. The 42 students of Shiriowa Junior High school are the latest chosen for the sadistic, government-run Program. Stuck on an island it's kill or be killed. There can be only one survivor!

The choice is yours...do you team up with your classmates and attempt to escape the island? Do you prefer to go solo and "play the game" until you're the last one standing? Or perhaps you will try to fight the power and take out the entire Program...

The finished game will feature:

-five playable characters, 3 initial and 2 bonus characters selectable when certain conditions are met
-a 3 day time limit, with corresponding day and night
-some classmates will attack you on sight, some can be saved and some can join you as allies,depending on the player character
-two ally types - active allies participate in battle whilst passive allies can be called on for one-off attacks
-as time passes, different areas of the island will become danger zones. Walk in to one of these and it's game over...
-character development through story flashbacks and dialogue choices that will affect how other students will react to you

The project is in early days yet, so any advice/suggestions will be appreciated!

Yes. Because I prefer them to the manga faces and because it was the movie that I loved when I saw it first. And I like them.
I like human facesets too.
Hmmm it's not exactly a horror game, in that there aren't monsters and stuff. But the situation is pretty horrific and does feature 15 year old school kids getting killed, so...if you find that horrible I guess it's a horror game ;-)
Ahmed, Battle Royal was basically the thing that inspired The Hunger Games. It's a much harsher story, and it definitely has kind of a survival horror feel to it at times.

There's a movie, a manga, and a book (which came first,) if you're interested.
And a movie sequel, and a manga sequel. Both of which I should finally sit down and watch/read.
Oh, it looks like such a cool project, although I don't know well about the original B.R. story.
Thanks! You should go and rent the movie ^_^
I read the manga & I really liked it.Usually,I am not interested in horror & gruesome stuff but this one kept me at the edge of my sit so I guess I am looking forward to this game much more than before,:).
You should watch the movie too! Recently I've been busy with real life so haven't done much updating, but hopefully I'll have some time this week. Thanks for showing interest ^_^
Ahmed, if you really liked Battle Royal, you might also enjoy:

-Gantz (anime, manga, movie, game)

-Hunger Games (books, movie)

-Shade's Children (book)

-Lord of the Flies (book, movie, etc)

-1984 (book, movie, etc)

That's probably enough to keep a person occupied until this game is released. :p

Really? Thanks! I hope it doesn't disappoint you...let me know when you've uploaded it!

Great! I'm looking forward to seeing it!
this game doesn't have any ending yet?
i mean, even if I play as shuya(The first character), there is no ending yet?
There are 5 endings. But you have to find out how to get them yourself. If you play for long enough you will eventually get the time's up ending, but since that's the worse one you probably don't want to get it ^_^
