I'm going for gold, lads, lasses, and other gendered classes!

Do you like visual novels? Do you like stories about the fey? Do you like your entertainment as EDUTAINMENT?

IF SO, BOY HOWDY DO I HAVE A VISUAL NOVEL PROJECT FOR YOU.

The Good People (Na Daoine Maithe) is a lore-rich and choice-driven romantic visual novel inspired by Irish mythology. Play as an Irish tenant farmer from the mid-19th century, whose path becomes inexplicably entwined with fairy affairs after getting robbed by the roadside and lured into the mythic and war-torn world of Tír na nÓg: A once unified land, now divided into the Seelie and Unseelie Courts. Will you escape with your stolen belongings? Or does fate have something else in mind?

OKAY, BUT WHAT DOES THIS MEAN FOR YOU, SEEKER OF SEROTONIN?

6 wonderful romantic/PLATONIC options (each love interest can be pursued entirely platonically)

a visual novel whose philosophy is less on anxiety-inducing, arbitrary choices to get a good or bad ending, but instead focuses on if you, the player, are interacting with a character in a healthy or unhealthy manner, leading to player freedom and choice

intelligent and reflective writing that is reflected within character moments and dialogue

and MORE! (so much more!)

WHERE CAN I FIND MORE OUT ABOUT THIS GAME?

Here is the bio link, which has links for the indie developers' social media accounts (Tumblr, Twitter, Discord Server) along with the link to their official website, which has a deep dive into every main NPC and the philosophy of the game. The demo is out now and free on both Steam and Itch.io

(As an official statement: I am in no way employed or affiliated with Moirai Myths and I was not approached in any way to make this post. This is me being a feral fan on main, blazing this post)

EDIT:

HELLO EVERYONE! DID YALL KNOW THE KICKSTARTER FOR THIS GAME JUST LAUNCHED TODAY? NOW YOU DO! MORE DETAILS AND MORE FUN TO BE HAD!

They’re doing voice acting reveals this month, along with an early bird special to see blushing/flirty emotes!

EDIT THE SECOND:

WE HAVE REACHED FULL FUNDING WITH THE GAME! Which is excellent, because it means that my little hyperfixation is gonna be made!

However!

It would be very nice if we could reach some of the stretch goals (which go into depth here: x). Not only are they fun (MC customization, a switch port, expanded voice-over work, more sprites, mini-games, side stories), but I think they'd spark a lot of serotonin for folks playing (myself included).

If this post has interested you at all, please, please, please check out the Kickstarter above! Thank you!

EDIT THE THIRD

Since this is still getting notes beyond my wildest dreams:

Hello! It's been a while! The Kickstarter ended a bit ago (I did not update this post when it did end, due to being ecstatic to how much the project managed to get: 130% funding!), but development is ongoing and strong! The first two routes are in development right now. Please keep tuned at @moiraimyths for official development updates!

I'm doing my first Steam Next Fest Live next week!

Hiiii

I'm participating in the upcoming Steam Next Fest next week with Mycelium Heaven and I have to do a broadcast. It's my first time streaming and my first time in a fest like this one so I'm ads8fpiñojudsofiyhauikjg

I'm doing a Q&A playing the demo and chatting, so if you can come and say hi. If you come from here, cast me a cool spell when entering or something, that would be cool.

See you there :P

Check out UpRooted's Demo!!

I haven't posted art in a while 😂😂 But one thing I have been working on is leading a game called UpRooted!! Its demo was released last week!

UpRooted is a 2.5d action-adventure featuring a mage and a paladin fighting to hack a virus corrupting a forest. Play as two and fight as one stunning as a mage and slashing as a paladin. The forest may be wilting, but at least you're not in this alone.

Our demo is in a pre-alpha state, meaning this is just a slice of our intended vision, and there are lil bugs squirming around our dear code. UpRooted is in active development, and we plan to squash those pests! Along with bug fixing, our future focuses will be wired towards polishing our buddy and enemy AI, adding save systems, dialogue systems, new levels, creatures, powers, puzzles, and more! This demo is only the start of the story we want to tell. So check us out if you want to hear more!!

Give us a follow, add, and retweet if you can!!

Play our demo and wishlist us on Steam!

Play our demo and add us on Itch.io!

Follow us on Twitter, chill on our Discord, or learn more on Carrd!

Sunset Hills demo was cute and intrigued me further. It does have some translation errors but it’s a very minor issue. Honestly, if you’re a fan of cute games or point and click games, then check it out as the demo is currently up on steam.

A Date with Death

Release date (Windows, Mac OS, Linux, Steam) English: December 7th, 2023

"You're just an ordinary person... or so you thought. For your entire life, you've been narrowly avoiding death by pure luck... or is it something more? When a strange program suddenly appears on your computer, and someone claiming to be the Grim Reaper says he's come for your soul, your life as you know it is thrown upside down.

As you delve deeper into the mysterious man that calls himself the Grim Reaper, you begin to wonder if fate brought you two together for a reason. Can you resist his charm, or will you fall for the one destined to take your soul?

A Date with Death is a supernatural romance chat simulator visual novel about the week long bet you enter against the Grim Reaper to attempt to keep your soul. Create your own character, from appearance to pronouns, decorate your apartment, and spend the (possible) last week of your life getting to know the one hunting for your soul."

This is a free game by Two and a Half Studios! You can get it from itch.io here or from Steam here. There is also an optional DLC for purchase which includes additional features.
