In a kingdom covered in snow, in a kingdom where the snow never melts and never goes away, there lives a prince who keeps watch over his kingdom and resolves to maintain peace. When the prince learns that his family’s history isn’t as spotless as he had been told, he endeavors to fix what his family had done wrong and to ensure the continual peace of his kingdom. This will lead the prince to battling the phantoms that prowl the lands, to saving a princess, and to realizing the secrets of his family and his kingdom.

The entire game takes place in Sabine Kingdom and the island that it rests on. The island is constantly shrouded in snow, but for some reason, no one ever feels cold. Plants continue to grow despite the snow, so there is no danger of a food shortage. There has never been a need to question this, so the residents of Sabine Kingdom are blissfully unaware.

Though of course, our prince--Snowe--is not blissfully unaware any longer. A dream leads him to combing through his parents' library and learning that something is amiss. What is our prince to do except try and fix what he had found? He can't just sit back and pretend like he hadn't read about a girl being locked in a tall tower where she may one day die from flames that threaten to burn her. No, he can't do that at all.

Did you like SSP and wanted more? Do you like reading??

Because of reasons, I've finally uploaded the sequel web novel, Ephemeral Prince to itch.io as an EPUB and a PDF. So, if you wanted to ever read Ephemeral Prince on your phone and not connected to the internet, now you can!

I figured this warrented a blog post, so I hope those who liked the game and liked the sequel will enjoy Ephemeral Prince on the go.



Maybe one day I'll make a game again, but today is not that day! Enjoy some old ass writing because it's like 10 years old! (which means SSP is older ugh)

Well, I simply downloaded 15 days ago and played without sayin' a word until the end of the game. If it crashed right at the end of the final battle twice (and that battle is long) I have the right to be frustrated enough to post here.

Anyway, I made it to the end and due to my limited monthly download ADSL I won't use more than 100mb to see the ending scene, so, that's it... I've seen the whole game and finished it (with all of the optional items and quests done) so I'm done here.

Well reading over what you wrote again, you would have been headed for the bad ending (you only get the knife on the bad ending) so you still had a whole dungeon to do. Whatever floats your boat though! I have no idea what ADSL or whatever that means, but sad that you can't get a non-broken version of the game. Bye!
If the optional dungeon is the nightmare castle and the hidden boss is "The Dream", killed after "The Slaughterer" I have made anything. I don't know what happens after the knife. The game crashed twice on that message


Sorry... ADSL is how we call the best internet connection. Sometimes I use Italian terms, I guess my mother tongue affects me when I speak.
Actually, you get the knife in both endings...

The beginning is always the same. In the good ending, though, it's just a dream.

Wow! Nope, that's completely wrong--I'm so sorry! Man I'm glad I didn't botch my game with that hiccup! I'll have a new version up that doesn't let you have the knife in the good ending because that's completely not supposed to happen! Am I glad everything else afterward was set up right or I would have screwed up my game. @_@

How far back did that switch on for the bad ending get there. OTL I don't even understand how that managed to slip by.

Edit:

Totally sorry about that ending hiccup that I had no idea about until now. Even though it didn't break anything, it still made me sad I let it go unnoticed for that many versions. V. 2.1 is up for that, and sorry again I let that slip by.
started playing your game and its so good!!!

I LOVE IT!

you should make another game or make part 2

now im a certified RONOVE FANATIC!

MiguHideki: Aww, thank you! Other parts are planned (which would make it an overly convoluted trilogy) but at this moment I need a break from SSP world.

A Trilogy??? COOL!!! I'll look forward to it! I wish i could make great rpg like u ^^
Just wanted to say, this game was amaaaazing <3
Awesome game, one of the best I've ever played! Just some of the bosses are tough (the undead chimera before reaching the sepulcher).
My god...I just started playing this tonight after finding out about it and I've fallen in love with the game. I am not very far but it seems very well written and it LOOKS amazing too. I'm definitely going to do a review for this game.
Hi...need tip within sepulcher... done 3 switch ON (including the one"in sky") after nothing happen

@Arlyeon & @Dagjaxig & @sicksinz - Aww, thanks! I really appreciate the comments :)

@Wsergio - That doesn't help me help you. :( Are you having troubles with the statues that you have to press the switches? Where there's a switch on their base? There are five of them altogether and should be easy to get to.
no problem with the statues to press the switches... my problem on the right of the screen there is a door which is displayed "locked" how to unlock ?

I need a screenshot if you want me to help you--I haven't the foggiest idea where that set up of doors and statues is in the airways (is it the outside of the in the sky parts? There is a door locked--you have to go into the psuedo throne room, stand in the middle of the rug and press the action button fall or climb down, find the switch down there, pull it. That door should be unlocked).

But if that's not it, I really do need a screenshot.

To take a screenshot, you can press the Prnt Scrn button on your keyboard, paste it in paint, and then save that. Upload it to like imageshack or tinypic and then give me that link. I'm really trying to help you but I cannot place where you're at.
Sorry. Stopped playing at the 2nd boss(The Old). I'm level 7 and I tried the strategy from your blog. Still to hard. The attack which hits everyone for around 100 hp is just too much. Can't outheal this and it is annoying if it kills one and if I have to revive him and he shortly dies after this again because he is on low health after the revive. There should be an easy mode because the story seems interesting. But I'm not going to try the battle 100 times because of the story. There are enough other games with easier battles and good story to play.

Sorry you feel that way, Luthan! Do you think I should rewrite that guide as it didn't help you at all? Maybe I think he's far easier than he really is and I should rework that guide to reflect it.

But, if you really don't want to give it another shot, thanks for trying! Sorry it didn't work out.
I tried to use that 2 items from the beginning(Scary Mask and the other one). I poisoned him and I blinded him with IP skills. But it got annoying when later he used that skill which damaged everyone of my party for a lot hitpoints and when he kept respawning his 2 allies every turn for 4 or 5 turns in a row everyt ime I killed them. Fortunately they were killed fast because I used the flame skill that attacks every enemy. But it cost lots of mana. Healing helped that one IP skill that heals everyone. But I can't use it all the time because not all the time I have high IP.

Which means I would have to let everyone heal themselves later if enemy uses tha attack that hits everyone. I always thought he was almost dead and I just could hit him with a few more attacks instead of healing.

And I don't like the fighting menu. Ring menu looks nice but I think it would be easier for playing to have a normal menu with text because you are used to it and can play faster. You see the text and the brain is working faster and you can click faster. With that ring menu and the icons you need to be slower to get the right things because you are not used to it and need to go slowly through the options and read the text and then click. I'm a lot slower with this ring menu and this makes me want to use the normal attacks or magic most the time. Maybe I should have used the items like Scary Mask more later in the battle. Only used them in the beginning and then spammed magic with everyone. The skills that hit one enemy if only was one enemy and if he spawned his helpers the other skills that attacked all enemies. What I don't like is a lot of healing and later I would have to heal a lot which makes battler longer because all chars need to heal themselves if he does that attack that attacks everyone.

Edit: You should tell in the guide if the player is supposed to use lots of the rare heal items which you can find that can heal everyone or if you should save them for later. Because with these items it might be a lot easier. I didn't know if I should use them. Would be interesting to hear what the average item use on this boss is. Because you certainly need a lot of basic heal and mana heal items or a few of the rare heal items you can't buy. First boss was much easier. I killed him and had no problems. Didn't use any items at all. Only spammed the magic until he was dead. But I didn't check my level. Maybe I was higher than recommended.
