TEASER TRAILER Hey! I'm Bee, an indie developer working on a game that I figured you guys would be interested in. This game started as what was to be a web comic, but later developed to fit into a visual novel style format. We're both students from Michigan hoping to pursue game development as a prospective career in the future. We're working on this project alongside a talented cast of voice actors to help make it a more immersive experience. Keizu is a visual novel style adventure about forest spirits, corrupt businesses, family heritage and a story of undying love. Some of the biggest inspirations for this title are game's like To The Moon and Phoenix Wright that feature unique adaptations of the classic VN genre. Keizu is inspired by the art direction and storytelling of the studio Ghibli films as well as that of other narratively driven adventure games such as Ori and The Blind Forest and Night In The Woods. The game has something for everyone featuring a story involving the main character Rowan's struggle to find her place in the world after a tragic accident leaves her fiance dead. When she feels hopeless and lost, the spirits of her ancestors help guide her back to finding herself. Rowan meets new friends, finds new hobbies and helps save the woods near her town from destruction in her journey to recovery. Keizu features full voice acting and a diverse cast of characters. Representation is an important factor in the game's development for us. I know some of you want to hear this so I'll just out and say it. It's gay Some features in the game include things like -Fishing -2D Side scrolling exploration segments featuring hand drawn art and tons of unique locations to see. -A diverse cast of characters and NPCs to meet as you venture through the town of Udosa. -Over 10 hours of content with more coming in DLC updates that will be free to Kickstarter backers upon the game's release. -A full length webcomic following the game's characters in their day to day lives in the same time span as the game's story to help broaden the game world. The game is in an early stage of development and should be fully completed by this time next year. When we started this project and up to now all development expenses have come out of pocket with myself working an extra job to help pay for it. Starting my Freshman year of college this upcoming fall semester, it's not realistic for us to continue doing this. To help aid the game's development, we're taking our game to kickstarter! If you'd like more info check out my studio's website at https://sdsvgame.com/ Our twitter page at https://twitter.com/sdsvgame Itch.io sdsvg.itch.io/keizu Don't miss the Kickstarter campaign's launch July 5th where limited edition merch and rewards will be available! https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/sdsvg/keizu-a-life-in-the-woods

The plot revolves around a group of classmates who are entangled in a dangerous social game that threatens their friendship, principles, and questions their nature. With one person leaving the game each day, friends are forced to choose between who stays and who’s eliminated while something sinister gathers around them. Visual Novel “306” was inspired by Umineko no Naku Koro ni (written by Ryukishi07). It's been in development since 2016 and we are proud to show the results. A lot of hard work has gone into this game. I hope you all enjoy it. Every asset used in the game was created by this team, minus the majority chunk of the BGM and SFX. Created by: ReDHoddie/レッドフディー Art: Gegi Petriashvili, Marie Mzareulishvili Code: ReDHoddie/レッドフディー, Mari Babakishvili Original Score: Gegi Kirtadze (But most of the game music is placeholder OST from various official franchises) Voice Cast : Levan - Ryan Pratt Achi - Josh Portillo Marie - Sam Slade Pavle - Vincent Fabbri Teona - Loganne Digma Tako - Katie Otten Irakli - Josh Portillo Gvanca - Rebecca Chiara Marano Salome - Shakyra Dunn Miranda - Kelly Greenshield and Jenna Oliver Nino - Mari Chavez Mari - Cat Protano Giga - Mylo Reid Lika - Veronica Laux Natuka - Bella Sapphire and Kelsey Jaffer Veronica - Cat Protano Tatia - Kelly Greenshield and Jenna Oliver We hope you enjoy our game.

Hello everyone, I've spent a fair amount of time trying to come up with a good story idea for a visual novel and was wondering if I could get some opinions on a pretty high-level description of my idea. This story would be a sci-fi/mystery visual novel that in its beginning stages, would follow five short character stories, which would be used as a means of introducing each of these individual characters. in these stories, each character is in their senior year and are trying to decide on a college to go to. basically, after their introduction, this university, which I have yet to come up with a name for, would use varying methods to try and influence these 5 students to attend the university. Be it through scholarships, a good athletic program, or a good program for their major, all five of these students are convinced to attend this university. mind you, the person who they are corresponding with is willing to give/say anything in order to convince these five characters to attend. I would release these 5 stories in a sort of episodic format as I completed them. As for the UI, It would have huge significance to the story. basically, the UI would have a sort of futuristic but slightly buggy/distorted look to it. On the bottom of the screen would be five generic silhouettes that would represent each of the five characters. Periodically, I would change the text on the screen to things like "Searching for candidate," etc. Upon completion of one of these stories, I would change the status to "Candidate located" and at that point, the generic silhouette would be replaced by the actual character's silhouette, and the story would become playable. upon completing the character's story, their silhouette would be replaced with their actual character sprite, and the status would change to "Candidate acquired" for a short time before returning to "Searching for candidate." Along with this, files on this futuristic desktop would be unlocked, and become viewable. These files would contain various different images, documents, and sound files, that would both be a means of world-building, and would also give away some juicy details of the overarching story. Once all five of these stories are completed, I would set to work on writing the final, long story. In which, all five characters, along with one new, very significant character, of which you play from the perspective of, would meet at this University. This final story would be pretty relaxed, until the characters start noticing odd things about the university, and slowly builds up until they try to get to the bottom of whats going on. Essentially, for the mystery aspect, what I have at this point is that the MC of the final game was the son of an esteemed inventor. this inventor's life goal was to create the first truly sentient artificial intelligence capable of feeling emotion and thinking for itself. He passed away before he was ever able to completely achieve his goal. However, he did manage to create the most advanced AI to date. before his death, he told this AI to do whatever was necessary, short of letting anyone come to harm, to create the first truly sentient AI. this gave the inventor a little bit of comfort prior to his passing, as he thought if this AI he created could do it, in a small way, he would have achieved his goal. Upon the inventors passing, the AI began formulating a plan to achieve its inventor's goal. the AI's plan was to attempt to get five people together in the correct environment, where they would have adequate funding and resources to create this first sentient AI. (you see where I'm going with this ). The AI essentially builds a university around itself via the use of robotic, humanoid puppets to found the university, and do all the things it could not, being stuck in place and all. money was no object as the inventor was very successful in many other endeavors and left it all to the AI. the AI then began searching for the best candidates. A few random ideas as well I thought I'd mention: I have an idea for the climax of this final story in which the characters finally find the truth, and find the AI. upon entering the inventor's workshop and finding the AI, the player would immediately notice that on the central screen would be an exact replica of the UI of the game. thus telling them that the answer was in front of their face the whole time. I've also considered a plot thread in which the humanoid puppets that the AI controls sort of have a will of their own, and desire to be truly sentient. Upon completing the game one final set of files would become unlocked. showing the POV of one of the humanoid puppet AI's being created. their body would be in disrepair of course as they would still be in the process of being built. many other projects of the inventors would be visible. the AI would look around before finally focusing on another, humanoid AI, this one in far worse shape. The player would recognize it as the character that led all five of the other characters to the university. however, this AI is not being controlled by the inventor's AI and is acting of its own volition. I've thought about using them as a villain for a future game. Thank you for reading my story idea. any feedback or constructive criticism would be greatly appreciated!

Coming in 1985 to all 3 major personal home computer system formats!

https://store.steampowered.com/app/1204 ... ories_Die/ How stories die Time travel, assassins and one demonic magical gangster bunny. Description: "The perfect story... I will do anything to create it" - ??? The kingdom of Alteria is under threat from the demon king. Luckily, there was a prophecy that when a certain child(called "The Hero of Fortune") will reach the age of 18, he will eat a golden fruit and gain enough powers to defeat the demon king and his army. One day, Prince Horace receives a letter from his father saying "The Hero of Fortune is now in the eastern market, escort him to the castle where he can eat the golden fruit". When Horace goes to the market he meets 3 different girls, each claiming to be the Hero of Fortune. Now Horace must look into the girls and determine who is the real Hero of Fortune, who are the impostors and what do they want. But his adventures won't end there... Features -Three unique routes with different atmospheres, each based on one of the classic RPG roles: The mage, the warrior and the rogue. -350,000 words (which roughly translates to 25 hours of gameplay based on what I read online). -Multiple route mystery! -About 12 endings + true ending. That doesn't count short bad endings, for instance deciding to have sex with the demon princess in an active volcano(which can happen in the story btw). Characters Nozomi Nozomi is a cheerful and energetic girl. She lived in the forest most of her life with her demonic magician gangster bunny mentor(there is an explanation for that), so she doesn't know a lot about civilized society and gets excited about every little thing(with a lot of funny misunderstandings). Nozomi has an endless supply of sexual jokes and has a talent to use them exactly in the worst time. She isn't the sharpest tool in the shed but she has a great affinity for magic.(magic is mainly used by demons) Riko Riko has a short fuse and quite a lot of ego. She won numerous gladiator championships before with her amazing agility. Her ego is quite fragile, and with her childish and stubborn attitude that's quite the explosive combo. She loves drinking and speaking high language. Riko's former family was a family of gladiators, but they disowned her for being too weak. Now Riko plans to beat her father in the finals and take revenge on him. She also possesses a drawing of Horace for some reason... Haruka Haruka is a shy and insecure girl. She is a genius that solves riddles in the blink of an eye and predicts what others will do based on cold logic. She lives in the slums of the Capital and is very physically weak. Although Haruka is insecure most of the time, when she faces an intellectual challenge she transforms into a strong woman with a lot of confidence. She holds some very strong political views regarding the royal family. Contrary to her innocent looks, she is an avid fan of torture. Horace CG3 Final.jpg (43.26 KiB) Viewed 1278 times Horace is the next king of Alteria and trains everyday to become a better king. He is a little spoiled, but he understands how big his responsibility is. He cares a lot about Alteria and will even risk his life to keep his kingdom safe. He is not a genius, but he finds some creative and crazy ideas to solve hard problems. He is a huge gladiator fan and an otaku. He is also quite handsome.(which does help him in some situations...)

Project Introduction My First Castellan is Elysium Studios' first visual novel and it's a romance-mystery in an alternate history universe. Visual Novel Synopsis Ever thought you had a bad day at work? Harlequin Beaumont has you beat. You see, he just got a sweet job as Castellan of Vernon and on his first day in town, his family’s reputation as a bunch of party animals precedes him. This, of course, makes him seem like a young, naive fool to his new personal assistant, Ruby Fox. After trying to joke around with the castle’s security staff, he proceeds to his room to retire for the night… only to be held down and injected with a magical elixir. When he wakes up three days later, he finds his best friend, the Crown Prince of Cordonia, at his bed side… and he is now a she. You both work together to try to hunt down the truth of the conspiracy against you as you fulfill your obligations as Castellan. Navigating both the Royal Court and the nobility, as well as Cordonia’s seedy criminal underbelly, you can discover a plot that stretches to the highest levels of Cordonian society that leaves you wondering, can you really trust anyone? In Episode One, you get to know Northwinter, the capitol of Vernon and your new home. And what better way than a festival? After you are installed as Castellan of Vernon, you get thrown into the celebration of the Greater Feast and culminating with the Winter Solstice. However, the conspirators who changed Harley left something very important behind: one of their own! Because of the crowds and tourists, he's having a hard time leaving Northwinter. Your objective is to hunt him down while not panicking the crowd and get the details about what happened to you. Staff or Team Members Apart from myself, we also have Madison Taylor (artist from the Least Likely Magical Girl web comic) doing the background art and DaphInteresting (character artist who did the Panzermadels art) doing the character art. Matthew Myers (L33tMusic) is doing the original sound track, Atomic-Invasion is doing the logo and GUI, and WhiteCharisma is finishing up the trailer. Progress The project is 100% written and since we've gotten to the point where we've gotten as much assets as we could with the resources we have, we're going to be launching a Kickstarter soon. Background art is around 10-15% completed, character art is 7% done, the theme song for the OST is done, and we're working to get started on the GUI. Originally, the game was a one-off, 100,000 word VN but after serious thought and introspection, we decided to make it into a series because the pacing was wrong doing it in one go with only 100,000 words. We're aiming for an August early release on Steam/itch.io and a December full release. Extra relevant information My First Castellan on itch.io Contact info: [email protected]

Hello! I'm here again to represent the original work of my team. We called ourselves The Wrecking Crew. Previously we've created a meme card battle visual novel called Dark Lords Don't Give A . Now, our current ongoing project is called CloudNovel Breakdown. Before we start, you need to know that The Wrecking Crew is basically a gathering of CloudNovel developers who want to have fun by trolling players. Kinda like a stress-reliever break from our actual, serious project. So yeah, from times to times, we gathered together and do a small project like this. A HEAVY WARNING: Do not play our game if you're depressed, stressed or anticipating a serious game. STORY Play as the main character (customizable name), a noob developer in an engine CloudNovel. As she is about to publish her first visual novel, a bug occurred! Now, she is responsible to go on the journey, entering the visual novels' worlds one by one to find a magic button that will reset the server as well as fixing all the bugs. Story Origin Actually, the story is inspired by the actual incident that happens in CloudNovel. At that time, the users of CloudNovel was growing in numbers so we had to move to a new server to accommodate those numbers. However, after we moved, something went wrong with the server where the site would slow down abruptly and sometimes just inaccessible. Thus, while we're waiting for the server company to fix this problem, the only temporary solution to solve this was by asking the site owner, Sonya to press the reset button. SO here comes the actual, real and unofficial description of the game. You create a game, you publish it, a bug happens. Called site owner, wait for the bugs to be fixed, but oh shoot! Your bugs are contagious! You are forced to enter the visual novel world to find that magic button in the hope it will fix the engine. NOTE: Due to your contagious bug, the visual novel worlds you entered would have bugs too. Anyway, we hope you a safe journey. FEATURES: We worked with several artists/developers/writers to do this. Each of them will make their own visual novel inside the game. So we will have different styles of art and for non-artist developers cum writers, they will be using a free art material. So in other words, features we'll be having are: FREE! Different art style from different artists (including unfinished art) or free-to-use art Different genres of story (all-in-one VN) Bugs, many bugs Sometimes, MC would transmigrate to a different body in certain worlds, so MC can also be male sometimes. MAIN CHARACTER is a female character who is eager to try out a visual novel engine and somehow she ended up making a bug while she's trying to publish her first visual novel. Original MC Art by fluffness MC in another visual novel world Art by megumi ART AND SCREENSHOT Yup, we've made the MC cries a lot. Art by Haryu If you haven't realized yet, this is a meme game. We've made this for fun. This is our stress-reliever. If you decide to try playing this game, please do note that YOUR ENJOYMENT IS NOT GUARANTEED! We planned to release this game on the 1st April on CloudNovel site.

KICKSTARTER || TWITTER Welcome to Love Shore, a city that transforms at night. The futuristic metropolis also just happens to also be populated with cyborgs, old gods hidden in the depths of a criminal underground, and humans eager to crawl their way to the top, no matter what the cost. After a fertility crisis changed the landscape of the city for good, a single company stepped in to help the residents: Life S. Incorporated, a biotech firm that claimed to be able to build life out of raw DNA, creating a fully formed human with thoughts, feelings, and morality of their own. Their minds, physical appearance, and personality would be drawn from their parents’ DNA, but the children would be ‘born’ using artificial bodies. This new generation would be called the S.Humans: a non-aging, tough form of new life. Love Shore is a visual novel game that takes concepts we've always loved in sci-fi, action, and horror and blends them together to create something wild. It features a queer, diverse cast, a seemingly endless city, and a story of coming into yourself and doing what you think is right…with a heavy dose of drama and violence mixed in for good measure. Love Shore features two playable protagonists with four romanceable options, each with their own storylines. The cast is entirely LGBT+. The game’s projected features will include 12 chapters, 24 possible endings, 60 CGs, 25 unique locations, and an original soundtrack. Follow one of two protagonists, Farah or Sam, as you investigate the city's criminal underbelly, and help your companions on their quests for redemption, love, and power. Love Shore has a cast of vastly different individuals, from S.Humans to Gods. Each person is unique in their motivations and in the way they interact with the world, and with you. Be careful to choose your friends and lovers wisely. Protagonists Love Shore is a vast and intricate city, and you’re going to need some local help to find out what’s going on. Each of your companions have different strengths, weaknesses, and connections that can either help or hinder you. Your companions can be your love interests, or you can just pursue true bromance: the choice is yours. All companions in Love Shore have an approval rating for Sam or Farah, based on their interactions with them, and these ratings can unlock new dialogue and different paths! If you want to check out all the companions, check out our Kickstarter! THE TEAM The beautiful sprites featured in Love Shore (as well as all the CGs) are done by Kabo. They are the lead character designer with a deep love for fashion and neon. (Hence, perfect for Love Shore). Zi is the amazing individual behind all the environments you see in game! She is an illustrator and concept artist who loves doing promotional work inspired by film. And that beautiful menu you see above? That’s by our UI Designer Sonja, who contributes a retro-sleek and professional look to the game. Besides being a huge memer, they have worked on a variety of design projects and games, both personal and professional. Son M. and Emmett are the co-writers of Love Shore, who additionally moonlight as producers for the game. Jason is a freelance programmer, and founder of indie gamedev studio Stray Basilisk. He's a dedicated sci-fi nerd, and card-carrying Philip K Dick and Stanislaw Lem fanboy. Jason joined the team to help bring Perfect Garbage's creative vision for Love Shore into reality. Jayson is the musical brains behind our soundtrack. He is an independent artist, musician who makes his own music and has worked on sound design for a handful of projects. Our theme song (the one that plays during the credits/menu) was composed and produced by 1X4X44R exclusively for Love Shore. If you like the sound, check out their other music! We are trying to reach $50,000 on Kickstarter! It's a steep goal, I know, but to pay for the art fairly, the music and programming, it's the smallest amount we could ask! The majority of the funding goes straight into the art (53%). Art - 53% UI Design - 4% Game Development / Programming - 22% Sound - 2% Writing - 19% [DEMO FOR MAC OR PC] Features the “First Chapter” of Love Shore and acts as a World/Character introduction to showcase the art, music and storytelling that will be present in the completed game. Two main characters with completely unique, yet intertwining stories to choose from Each character has four romanceable options Rated 17+ for mature language, sexual themes, and violence. THE DEMO DOES NOT INCLUDE MATURE CONTENT. The demo of Love Shore is a work in progress, showcasing our team’s abilities to produce a story of this caliber. There are no save/load options but should take only 30 minutes to play both character introductions. There are an estimated 12 chapters per route included in the final game. Thanks for taking the time to look over this! It's a project I'm very passionate about and I'm still learning my way, even during this kickstarter! Please Enjoy! KICKSTARTER

The artist who is doing the art for Cafe Rouge has worked for Rejet (creator of Diabolik Lovers) and Otomate (PlayStation 4, PlayStation Vita, and PC otome games company in Japan) For those interested, or who don't know Diabolik Lovers or Otomate, they are very popular brand name otome games in Japan.

Sonya created it back when she was 18 years old, and it grew viral with 1.6 million plays. The video trailer with the original 2012 game is below. She didn't finish telling the story because She grew bored of it back then, but now she's ready to remake Cafe Rouge on CloudNovel, fix all the plotholes by rewriting the story (most of it will be the same) and use brand new art from artists who've worked on professional otome games from Japan. This will be CloudNovel's first commercial game with in-game purchases of 1-5 points cost per choice button.

The idea for the project came back in 2011. First works were made, such as the outline of the story and first concept art for characters. Unfortunately, the project went into a drawer for many years. The reason behind it was our focus on developing other games, such as 9 Clues and 9 Clues 2. Fortunately, the project survived and was 'resurrected' by at the end of 2017. We approached to the Perseverance with new energy and fresh look. Our aim was to give players a gripping story and show them the drama of individuals in the face of terrifying events. As we decided to make Perseverance an episodic production, we would like to give you some insight of what to expect from the story in Perseverance: Part 1. SYNOPSIS In Part 1 you play as Jack Cutter, a father who is struggling to keep his family together. He's a ‘go-to' guy in his hometown of Grey Ville. On the surface Grey Ville looks like a peaceful city, but research conducted in a nearby military base gives the town a mysterious aura. Residents prefer to stay away from it, however, they love to speculate on what's going on there. Things take an unexpected turn and the area is quarantined. Meanwhile, a mysterious woman is after a fugitive. Her superiors expect her to fulfill her orders as usual. But they are not telling her everything. The person she's after is more than what she appears to be. Soon both Jack and the mystery agent will find themselves in a middle of a crisis that will change them forever.
