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:

Multiplatform Release
The game will be commercially available for PC, MAC, Android, and iPhone, late 2016!
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...
