Story: (Quick Spoiler free)

A new race of beings, Gin, have found themselves in the center of conspiracy, intrigue, and war. Civil war between the Imperial Army and the Rederick Army has split the country into two warring factions. A small fishing village located in the middle neutral territory that has yet to feel the affects of the war, this will soon change, and this is where the story begins!

The main characters of the game are Antonio and Shinata, two Gin who are strangers to one another. Antonio fled his village after they discovered he was a Gin to protect the people that he loved. Antonio only wishes to find answers, why does the world hunt and kill Gin? Is there anywhere in the world where Gin can be safe? Shinata has a completely different upbringing than Antonio. She was raised under the watchful eye of her entire village. At the age of 5 Shinata began training to be a warrior. For what? Shinata is not sure, however, that did not stop her father from implementing a rigorous daily training regime. The story begins when their paths cross. Antonio and Shinata are ultimately swept up in a series of events that will change the very texture of reality! Come join them as they learn more about themselves and the world around them.

Game Features:

Gamepad/mouse/touch screen game

Original Story
Story currently being developed as a series of novels. Compliments the novel in many different ways. Those that read the novel will have an edge in the secrets/back story department and vice versa.

Time system (Custom time system, no scripts used!)
Time affects game play in many surprising ways
Years, months, days, hours, minutes.
Day and Night cycles.

Dynamic Weather System (Custom weather system, no scripts used!*)
Weather are random and affects game play in many surprising ways
Weather effects carry into battle. (*actually, 1 simple script lol)
Weather effects, day/night, inside and outside are all taken into consideration.

Unique Quest System
Unprecedented level of freedom and choice to decide the outcome of quests. Play good or evil, help others or leave trails of blood in your wake, you decide!
Decisions made during the game will be remembered. All decisions affect the story and character relationships. Characters will voice their happiness/anger and will react in many surprising ways.

Unique Characters
Characters have their own strengths and weaknesses. All characters are highly customizable (*especially the one you design yourself)!

Unique Battle System
The battle system is a blend of traditional and modern battle systems. Mainly CTB, Charge Turn Based battle system, where you utilize strategy in order to control the flow of battle!
Highly customizable! For example, you may alter the way each character earns SP needed for special attacks which adds further strategy and depth (SP mode changes found under skills menu). And much more!

Unique Leveling System
The leveling system is a blend of traditional and modern leveling systems. Not only do you get stronger and learn new skills as you level up, you can also customize your character further by choosing which skills to learn. The more thoroughly you explore, the greater the options (unlock additional skills)!

Perception System
Character can sense secrets about the current area or about the people around them. Works even during conversation.

Persuasion System
Characters can alter the course of the game and generate unique dialog options, quests, etc. based on persuasion skills (and a little chance).

Lock Picking System
Characters can pick locks!
System also has *combination lock and *password systems! Be sure to pay attention to the world around you!

Mining System
Players can mine many different ores in the game!

Crafting System
Characters can (and should) craft weapons, armor, gems, items, necklaces, rings, and trinkets out of the ore that they mine/discover/find at a crafting station.
The crafting system has randomization and variance built into it.
Weapons and Armor have durability.

Slotted Weapons and Armor
Find and create gems to place into weapons and armor!

Digging system
The game hides items all over the world. So grab your shovel!

False walls
As an ode to the Zelda games, there are weak walls that can be bombed to reveal secrets. Keep an eye out for cracks! Works in conjunction with the perception system.Sometimes there is more than treasure hidden in walls. Paths to new quests may also be revealed.

Fishing System
Yes, you can fish! Works with many other game systems in very interesting ways.

Cooking System
Characters must make meals (at cooking stations) in order to heal outside of battle (*besides sleeping). Potions are used during battle and cannot be used outside of battle.

Farming System
Yes, you can farm and pick veggies!
Works in conjunction with the cooking system and the *home base system.

Infinity Dungeon
An infinite dungeon that spawns infinite resources and secrets!
An integral part of many side quests.
Has many extremely rare, legendary, and unique items hidden in its depths!
Lots of other secrets… 42...
Whats up with the creepy skull statue outside the dungeon anyway?

Mini Map
Find your way around the game much easier!
Player, quest markers, locations, etc, are shown on the map!
Zoom and Opacity can be adjusted at anytime!

Random Treasure
Most of the loot in the game is random. Random drops and random spawn. Good luck!

Enemy Encounter Variations
Encounters aren’t always just random encounters, in many instances, you will see the enemies on the screen.
You can catch the enemy off guard for a “surprise attack” when they are not looking!
Upgrade your skills to increase “surprise attack” bonuses!

Features yet to come:

And so much more! but they are secret for now...

Killer Gin Homestead Update (Dating/farming simulator)

I thought the daily gift giving and talking system was going to be tricky... its been a breeze! So far its very much like Stardew Valleys gift giving and daily talking system but will be much more complex and subtle in terms of what people like/dislike, etc.

Over 21 potential mates
Over 70 gifts

Each mate has different likes, dislikes, and responses (gift, gender, and personality wise)
Should be up and running in no time.

F.Y.I.
Yes, you can choose your gender. The prospects are either straight, bisexual, or gay/lesbian (I even have a couple transgender). All prospects also have their own personality type (some like money, some power, some good, some evil), likes and dislikes (gift wise) and also have friends and enemies.

I am also working on some crazy details that make the game much more mature and interesting, these are the details that I keep secret for now. Some are Easter eggs and some I just want people to discover on their own. I keep the best secrets for myself lol.

You can do what ever you wish, that's why I provide all these options. ;0)

Just wanted to give you a quick Homestead Guide:

HOMESTEAD MODES
- There are two homestead modes: Analyze and Action.
- You may toggle between either mode using the icon at the top of the screen.
- Analyze mode gives the player detailed breakdowns of every action they make.
- Action mode removes detailed breakdowns to speed up gameplay, also allows character to chop down trees.

CROPS
- Crop stages: Seeds, planted-immature, planted-ripe, death.
- You must water and fertilize your crops. If their water or fertilizer levels drop below 0 they will die.
- Crops can be frozen (due to snow). You must thaw them, with an item, to perform an action with them. If they are frozen for too long they will die. If they are infected, then frozen, the freeze will kill any infection.
- Crops can be infected with bugs (during nice weather). You must spray them, with an item, to perform an action with them. If they are infected for too long they will die. If the crops are frozen before you spray them, the infection will be cleared but now you must thaw the crop.
- Harvest crops when they are ripe to receive the crop and seeds.
Crops can grow old and die, harvest them in time.

LIVESTOCK
- Livestock stages: Immature, Mature, Death.
- You can order livestock via the livestock ordering system or you may mate two mature (opposite gender) animals to produce young.
- All livestock require water and food to survive. Ensure that there is plenty of water in the water bucket and food in the trough.
- Livestock is either male or female. This is important when mating and what you receive from the female animal as only females produce goods (eggs and milk). However you need males to reproduce. Mature animals must be well fed (food and water) and must be happy enough to reproduce. After the animals reproduce, there is a cooldown before they can reproduce again. The cooldown is different for males and females.
- Immature livestock can not mate or produce any goods. They will mature in due time. The player can play with the animals to keep them happy. You can pet the animal or play with the animal. You can choose one in order to raise the animals happiness once per day. The difference between the two selections is the amount of time required to complete the action.
- At anytime you can choose to slaughter the animal for meat (key items - attack mode toggle). Immature and mature animals yield different amounts of meat.
- Animals will die from old age.

RELATIONSHIPS
- There are 21+ dating prospects, they can be found in the pub.
- Races include: Human, Elf, Dwarf, and Orc.
- Sexualities include: Straight, Bi, Gay, Lesbian.
- Classes include: Fighter, Barbarian, Thief, Black Mage and White Mage.
- Each prospect has their own personality and their own preferences.
- Once per day you can talk to a person to raise your relationship by 1.
- Once per day you may also give a gift to a person. Reactions may be good or bad based on the gift, the gift recipient, and the relationship level. Give carefully!
- You must raise your relationship high enough (you must fit the prospects preference) so that you can first get engaged (relationship level 100+) then married (relationship level 200+).
- Once you are married your spouse will move into your house.
Your spouse will travel with you on your adventures in homestead mode.

HOMESTEAD UPGRADES
- You may upgrade your homestead, garden, and barn with the appropriate materials.
- Homestead upgrade: Bigger homestead, comes complete with a crafting table and alchemy crafting station.
- Crop upgrade: Crop number increase from 4 to 6.
- Barn Upgrade: Livestock number increase from 4 to 6.

HOMESTEAD TIPS
- You must sleep in Homestead mode!
- You will begin to get tired at 10:00pm, go back home to sleep.
- You will faint where you stand after 12:00am. The longer you wait, the greater the chance you will faint.
- When you faint you will receive the “Homestead sleepy” state.
- When affected by the Homestead sleepy state, all actions will take longer to complete, therefore, you will be less productive. You may use an item or take a nap to remove this state.
