Over two hundred years ago, the five heroes defeated the god of darkness; Ragnarok, in a climactic struggle for the fate of the world. Banished back to the realm of darkness known as the Abyss, the threat of the evil god had finally been put to rest once and for all...or so they thought.

Umbral Soul follows the story of Ragnarok’s loyal servant, Pandora, who joins her master in a quest to conquer the world and reclaim his lost power. In order to shroud the world in eternal darkness, they will have to find and recruit new allies, build an army of powerful monsters, and raise a force strong enough to crush anyone who dares to oppose them. Heroes, generals and rival overlords all stand against them. Do you have the power to make the world yours?



Pandora
A powerful dark sorceress with the ability to call forth monsters from the Abyss and enslave them to her will. Her burning hatred for the world and its people leads her to follow Ragnarok with unwavering loyalty.

Ragnarok
The god of darkness, who seeks dominion over the human realm. Once an extremely powerful being in the form of a monstrous demon, he has now been reduced to a mere soul. He wishes to plunge the entirety of the human realm into darkness, in part out of spite for his counterpart; the goddess of light, Lumielle.

Lanith
Beautiful, deadly, and self absorbed to a tee, Lanith is a succubus with a never ending hunger for the lifeforce of men. Having served under Pandora since she was only a child, she has a knack for getting under her skin, and does so whenever the opportunity arises.

Damien
A deeply twisted and sadistic young man, Damien loves nothing more than manipulating others and watching them squirm. While he has kept his true nature a secret, Ragnarok’s uprising marks the perfect opportunity for him to cut loose and have some fun...by killing as many enemies as possible.

Azrielle
The lord of all demons, who is fiercely loyal to Ragnarok and possesses an extreme, seething hatred for humanity. After failing to aid his master in conquering the world the first time, he has no intention of repeating the same mistakes again.

I'm back, baby!

Hey everybody, hope you've been doing well. I'm pleased to say I was just recently discharged from rehab, so at long last after over a month I'm home. They ran a whole lot of tests on me and I had several surgeries, so I am finally no longer in danger of croaking. That means I'm finally free to double down on game development, when I'm not stuck sitting in some doctor's office that is. Thank you all for your well wishes, they went a long way towards improving my mental health through that strenuous time. Welp, that's enough chatter. I've got some game making to do.

Hello I'm stuck in mages tower on the fire level. I have already aquired the key and opened the door but the door to who I think is the fire sage won't open. Pandora just says she doesn't think any of them have magic strong enough to get through any ideas anyone?
You need to light each one of the torches in the fire maze before the door will open. There are 4 in all, and you'll hear the door open once you've lit the last one. It should be smooth sailing after that.
Questions that could have possible spoilers? But minor ones:
Do you ever enter Sullivan Manor as a sidequest? It just seems so, what with the prisoner in the Thieves' Cave and all.


And seeing as I'm asking questions, you've gotta tell me the kickass theme Azrielle has.

You never enter Sullivan Manor in this game. At least if he doesnt change that in the next version. The prisoner has nothing to do with you.... no freeing prisoners as the evil guy... apart from the evil ones.... ;)

For the other... I have no idea... =P
Well, that's put my mind at rest. Thanks!
I can answer that second one for you. Azrielle's theme is called "Nightmare Fiction II", from the Blazblue series. Thanks for the assist dasgibtesnet. Still can't afford to pay you though.
Thank you! It's probably my favourite tune in the game.
I just wanted to say that I'm 4 and half hours into this game, and I'm addicted! I can't get enough of these characters, of this story! What an incredible game so far! Fantastic job!
Hey thanks Sphere! I wanted to build my own ideal game, using the elements I find most enjoyable in rpg's. I've always wanted to play as an evil villain trampling the forces of good with dark powers, so the game was built around that idea. Anyway, I hope you continue to enjoy being a terrible person!
wow .. it took me 21 hours to finish this game !! .. That is insane !! Amazing !! This game is so addicted . I love everything about it ! I am really amazed it .. Just wow !!
Twenty one hours?! Wow, you must have done everything. Congratulations on beating the game, and thanks for playing! The next edition will include an entirely new campaign, so I hope you'll look forward to it.
I'm really loving this game. The characters, the story, the balanced combat system, its everything to well designed, maybe my only complain is the mapping. I think it could have been better.

Greetings.
Yyyyeah, mapping is definitely my weakest point. I used to be a lot worse at it, but I learned by analyzing the mapping in other rpg maker games. There's still plenty of room for improvement, but I'm hoping to get better as I go. Practice makes perfect as they say. Thanks for sharing, it's always encouraging to hear when someone is enjoying themselves. Now off with you! You've got a world to conquer and insects to crush!
Unfortunately having issue, I have tried the Without RTP and with RTP downloads but the launcher is not in folder, tried twice with both download types, any idea why?
I think I might have an idea. Some anti-viruses delete the game executable for some reason (it's the little dragon head. If you've downloaded any other rpg maker vx ace games, you can copy the dragon head from there and paste it into the project, that should get things up and running.

My anti-virus never had a problem with it, but I'm going to create a new executable for the game's next version to see if that doesn't fix the problem. Please let me know if you have any more issues.

First off, congratulations for such an amazing game, I had so much playing it, I enjoyed it everything from it, the characters, the story; just amazing.

So if I'm reading this right there will be more? Cool, I can't wait for it! Good luck!


You betcha there'll be more. I had a blog up detailing what'll be coming next, but it was replaced with the current blog after I had an emotional meltdown about having this game featured.

Basically, I'm going to finish a joint project I'm working on with a friend of mine, then I'm going to release an improved version of this game. It'll include several bug fixes and spelling revisions, as well as additional content such as new sidequests and scenarios. It will also include an entirely new campaign where you play through the story as the heroes. After that, it's on to the sequel, which I'm pretty excited to share with everyone.

Hedrick, Nedras, thanks for the kind words, hearing that people are having a good time always motivates me to work even harder. There'll be plenty more games coming from me, so I hope I can provide you with even more entertainment in the future.


guys can you help me how play this game
Wheelman, you ever thought about taking this game commercial? I mean I'm 7 hours in and this is one of the best games I've played this year. Legit. It's better than a plethora of RPG games I've played on Steam. You might want to consider it.
