  1. Hello everyone !

    We're very glad to announce that our team just released a new VN: Seers Isle.

    We're a small French team located in Bordeaux, France (the game is available in English and in French). The work we do is quite original in the VN world, as our art is in a European comic book style rather than anime, and our stories are quite short (about 3-4h for each "route"), choice and CG-heavy, with multiple meaningful paths and ending variations.

    You might remember us from Along the Edge, an OELVN we published a couple of years back.

    Looking forward to hear your thoughts, hope some of you will enjoy our work!

    Best, <3

    Geoffroy.

     

    The Story:

    Seers Isle is set in a fantasy version of medieval northern Europe, where your choices impact the fate of a group of characters.

    “The island… It was my prison.
    For ages, I roamed the land, helpless, looking for a way out.
    And then, they arrived.”

    A group of shaman apprentices set foot on the shores of a sacred island to be initiated to magic.
    As they progress through the wilderness, looking for the “Seers”, their spirit-guides, they realize they’re not alone.
    Who is this strange horned woman they are seeing in their dreams?

    Features:

    • Explore the island through a diverse group of characters, depicted in a gorgeous European comic book art style.
    • Every choice matters. Each decision you make slightly alters the mood and personality of the main character as well as her relationship with the rest of the group.
    • A huge amount of content: with each playthrough, discover a novel-sized adventure and a slice of the hundreds of hand-drawn images created for the game.
    • An immersive and finely crafted soundtrack: the music adapts and shifts according to your choices and the mood of each scene.
    • Try out our dynamic dialog system: read the story like a comic book.
    • High replayability: choose your soulmate and discover the outcome of your decisions through multiple story paths and endings.

    The VN is priced at the $12.99 tier.

    How did you find out about VNs?

    I've always been interested in literature (big reader since childhood).

    In the 80's (yes, I'm *that* ancient ^^), we had something called "choose your own adventure" books, VNs seems like an extension of this concept. I've tried to get into it several times, but anime / manga style VNs never really clicked with me somehow (probably because I'm not a bit fan of mangas and animes).

    Thank you for the "moe".

    Hmm... What's a moe ? ^^'

    Although, I must say I am slightly disappointed that this isn't the epic story of a young nihilistic teenager dealing with teenager problems and trying to control his inner edgelord

    /me scribbles in his notebook labeled "future endeavours".

    Hmmm... Hasn't someone written something along these lines already?

    Along the Edge is a visual novel set in the European countryside, where your choices impact the main character's personality and appearance.

     

    Story:

    Daphné is at a dead-end. She's unsatisfied by her personal and professional life. So, when she inherits an old family house in a remote part of the country, she jumps at the opportunity to start anew.

    Does she decide to embrace her legacy or does she hang on to her old way of life?

    Along the Edge is developed by a small team located at Bordeaux (France). It's our second narrative project, and our first one for desktop computers.

  5. Thanks for the nice welcome! :)

    @OkarinWe're not especially focused on the Apple platform (our last game is for Windows, Linux and Mac), we just happen to also develop iOS Apps in my company (one has to eat and pay their mortgage), so it made sense to start off with an iOS game (and, no Apple didn't snatch our project from our nurturing arms with their nasty corporate talons ^^).

    @littleshogun I'm sad you find Daphné scary. She's a nice girl, but maybe just a bit broody.

  6. I co-wrote "Echoes" on iOS, an  episodic game with a mix VN and hidden objects game play and a "film noir" / US comicbook graphic style in 2013-2015.

    I just released "Along the Edge" on itch.io and the Mac App Store, a VN I've been working on for a year. :)
