And if so, what will negative effects will it have on the world around him? One day after a mysterious dream, a series of mischievous events appear before his eyes. Could these events possibly be foretelling the abilities that he has yet to acquire? Follow Joto as he stumbles upon a mysterious black orb and the chance of a lifetime, the ability to change his past and future. A visual inspired by games and anime like Shin Megami Tensei, Jojo's Bizarre Adventure, Gantz, and many others! Characters Joto The main protagonist of the story. Has made some regretful decisions, will he ever fix them? Mystery Man The mysterious individual that Joto sees in his crazy dreams. Arabella Joto's love interest and secondary protagonist. Jed Joto's annoying boss. How could he put up with such a guy? Bob Bob, a very very evil person. Better to stay away from the likes of him. All these characters have been hand drawn with colored pencil, so they may look a little rough. They they WILL change eventually as the project goes on. If someone with artistic talent wants to join the team and help, just send me an inquirie please. Thanks Progress (7/17/2016) So far all character portraits, scriptwriting, and programming in TyranoBuilder has been done by me. Currently most of the music in the game is just placeholder until I get around to making original tracks. The artwork is just concept at this point, and is open to changes. I eventually plan to make update it and make it digitally, because as of right now colored pencil looks a little rough. I am definitely open to recruiting, so if you have a specific talent and would like to contribute, just shoot me an email at [email protected] and specify what you would like to do. I have created a demo up to the first branching option in the story. The download link is available for free via my Google Drive. So feel free to download and try it yourself. **Added Mac OS Demo 7/24/2016 FREE DEMO: Windows Download MacOS Download The demo is on Windows and MacOS, but I plan to extend support onto iOS and Android eventually.

Anonalypse Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 The writing, and sound were pretty good, I couldn't get used to the art though (...I haven't experienced any indie VN's, besides this. So of course I can't really compare the art to anything). ZaSoft 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZaSoft Posted July 18, 2016 Author Share Posted July 18, 2016 Hey thanks for checking it out. I'm still kinda new to the whole art thing, so yeah it might be a little iffy. But like I said, it's just placeholder right now and its going to change once I'm able to update it digitally. Anonalypse 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forgetful Frank Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 I'll give the demo a try sometime soon. It sounds pretty interesting, and for placeholder art, it's actually pretty decent. I look forward to seeing the finished digital designs in the future. Just keep up the good work. Anonalypse and ZaSoft 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZaSoft Posted July 20, 2016 Author Share Posted July 20, 2016 Yeah i'm a beginner at drawing art, but I feel like my style has come a long way. Definitely trying to recruit an artist if I can to help move things along. Anonalypse 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZaSoft Posted July 24, 2016 Author Share Posted July 24, 2016 If anyone knows Japanese, and would like to do some Japanese localizing, that would be awesome as well. I would like to get it as well known as possible, and the VN market in Japan would be a great popularity boost. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
