Roencia Posted October 4, 2016 Share Posted October 4, 2016 Description: Omni Link is a different kind of visual novel featuring space exploration, real-time combat, and choices that affect gameplay and story. Find love across the stars and learn what it takes to give everything you have for those you care about.Story: You play as Keb. A man of little consequence. An orphan without a past or a future. It's your first day on the job at Zaos Corporation when you encounter an alien vessel. Through a misunderstanding, your vessel explodes & binds you with an entity known as Ectype D-8, an attractive and powerful being of technology. You quickly learn that there is more to this ship and A.I. than meets the eye. The artificial intelligence is so advanced she is able to absorb energy from other ships and duplicate them. As well as use a mysterious ability called Omni Link. This comes at a time when an entity called "The Virus" awakens near the edge of the galaxy. Suns are disappearing and planets are dying. People discover that this threat is real. However, no one knows exactly what the Virus is or has lived to tell about it. On your journey you'll discover what it means to love and lose everything. The people you meet--a child prodigy, an ace pilot, a computer genius--will all come to depend on you to save them. Not because you're anything special... because you give everything you have.Trailer:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7W9-ySkjO-M&feature=youtu.beSteam Early Access:http://store.steampowered.com/app/529100/Why Early Access? Besides my artist, and help from the game maker community, most everything else I've done alone. This includes advertisement, programming, most art, and I even wrote the theme song for the game. My excitement for the characters, the story, and gameplay has helped me work long hours. I can only do so much alone. I come to early access to involve you and ask for help. I want voice artists for the characters, more backgrounds, and art for you to enjoy. This is the only game of it's kind.A Man without a futureMeets a woman from the pastA powerful intelligenceLinks them togetherLearn from past mistakesA family to protectAdventure leads to strengthPoll I added a poll that might be fun to fill out after you play the game and story. When we get to that point, I can learn what characters you like so I can focus on them or make changes if needed.

Roencia Posted October 15, 2016 Author Share Posted October 15, 2016 I wanted to address some things concerning gameplay since people who play visual novels are not used to this type of game. Being a top-down shooter. I made the gameplay in such a way that this aspect can be quite easy if you want to get through it quickly just to enjoy the story. Ectype D-8 can control ships you capture when summoned as "support". If you start the game on casual difficulty you should be able to sit back and relax while your fleet does the job. There are however a few gameplay puzzles that take a little thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Roencia Posted October 18, 2016 Author Share Posted October 18, 2016 My game has released. At a later time I will probably link from Steam to this forum so people can register on this site and vote in my pole! It may influence later decisions. Be forgiving. My game is not entirely bug free (even though it was in testing...) But it is fully playable and fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roencia Posted November 26, 2016 Author Share Posted November 26, 2016 Hope you had a great Thanksgiving! There is a huge Black Friday sale going on now at Steam and they are having an event called Steam nominations. While there is no way I could win a nomination in the normal categories, there is a "Make your Own" nomination category. Me and all my friends will nominate Omni Link for the "Unusual Hybrid" award. Nominate my game for the: Unusual Hybrid award during the steam sale and let's see if we get noticed. You put that under category suggestion. No one as ever made a top down shooter visual novel adventure. http://store.steampowered.com/app/529100/ In case everyone missed the announcement with icons. I decided to post them here: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
