Lemma Soft Forums

Well, Hello everyone!
For a while now, 3 of us have been working on this otome-style game! It's based around a Literal orchestra!
May I just point out, It was due to the best conversation I had one day, in an orchestra, so there we were, pondering what instrument really was the most attractive, then BAM I suddenly thought OTOME-TIME! So, after snickering with my friend about how sexual musical terms could be, we started this.....


One who wants to lead an orchestra must turn their back on the crowd.


Project name: Symphonie des Rêves (Dream Symphony - It just sounds cooler in French.)
Genre: Otome [GxB/GxG]With some Supernatural themes!
IT'S GOING TO BE 100% FREE BECAUSE FREE IS FUN!~
Rating: Scenes shouldn’t get worse than 13+
Features: Right now, There's 6 obtainable characters!
When finished, each route will be about 30-45 minutes long
We'll have CG's!
There’s about 15 endings!
You have the chance to woo instruments! (Pfft who doesn’t want to do that?)


Plot:
Tzarsia, a tiny country famed for having one of the best music conservatories in the world! Harmonia, (You, the name is changeable!) A talented young conductor, is lucky enough to be offered a place in this famed school! Thankfully, she passes the audition with excellent marks! In this story, you take the life of a young conductor in your hands! Will she be successful? Find love? Live happily ever after? It’s up to you!

Characters!:
All sprites are (c) to riiko08. Please don't use them without permission.

Harmonia Stratford:

"Why the hell are you all Instruments?!"
Here's your Main Character!
Age: 16
Her personality will develop throughout the game! Your choices influence her a lot, but she definitely has prominent personality traits!

Cel Amati:

Here's the Cellist/Cello!
"I'm not a stalker, I just... Errr....happen to be in all the places you are!"
Age:18
First of all, he is a CELLIST, and will get awfully offended if he is called anything else!
Cel is the oldest of 3, and it shows! He adores the juniors, and helps them whenever he can! Much to the disgust of his youngest brother, Gio. Although he is a very good brother figure, he is very strong-minded and passionate, he must ALWAYS get the last word, and will defend anything he believes in, he is not someone you want to debate with, unless you want to be arguing for hours on end... However, despite his initial kindness, it turns out he is hiding a rather dark secret, will you find out?

Gille Hautbois:

And Here's the Oboeist/Oboe!
"I don't bite, too hard, unless you're into that sorta stuff, then we can be best friends~ "
Age: 17
Gille is avoided by most of the pupils, due to his.... Erm.... Strange, 'silent and deadly' nature. Much to Harmonia's confusion, he doesn't seem to fit the description she has been given by the other pupils. He always tries to make friends, but almost always gives the wrong impression... If you are brave enough to approach him, he is a very trustworthy guy, but on the other hand, getting him trust you is no easy task, he trusts nobody. He is very sharp minded and can tell when he’s being used, he is also cleverer than he gives himself credit for.
His past is shrouded in mystery, causing particularly horrible rumours going around about him, could any of them hide truth?


Josef Hecke:

Thus the Bassoon arrives!
"Do you ever wonder if trees have feelings too? No? Oh..."
Age: 17
Josef is good-natured, however, his mood is very....Changeable.... As in One day he is really sweet and loving, the next he is trying to stab out your eyes with a turnip.... Because of this, most people avoid him, apart from Gille that is! Those two are best friends! As innocent as he is, he has a very scary mind, but on his ‘good days’ he is very mellow and passive. Everyone says he is dangerous, and should be avoided, but is he really?

Adillia Bohem:

(GOLDEN FLUTES FTW)
"I hate working in groups... Why am I even here? Hmm..."
Age: 18
Adillia has been at the school for longer than she cares to remember! However, strangely enough, she hates crowds, working with/near others! She is liked among the orchestra, yet she is often found alone. Her cool, yet mysterious attitude attracts may people to her, but no matter what happens, she prefers to isolate herself from them, could there be a reason for this?

Klävian Steinway:

THE KING
"I do what I like, when I like, I am The King."
Age:18
Klävian, or Klavian (He prefers the latter…) is a prissy, pompus brat, who everyone knows, and bluntly, hates. Like Adillia, he has been at the school for ages! Despite being in a poor financial condition, he appears like a King, acts like a King, and spends like a King, he has absolutely no concept of money, which gets him into a lot of trouble. He will listen to nobody but himself, and is VERY hard to please. He adores all things classical, from music to art, he is also well-read in classical literature. Can someone possibly break through his pride and find his heart?

Elliot Roland:

He's the synthesizer!
Age: 17 
"You're so annoying. Just shut up for five minutes, sheesh."

An irritable guy who tends to keep away from the rest of the class. He usually holes up in the classrooms at the back of the school. He is pretty good with computers, too. For some reason, he hates mentioning his family...

Violet Amati:

She's the viola.
Age: 16
"You know you're my best friend, right? You can tell me anything!"

Harmonia's excitable childhood best friend. She's been attending the Tzarsian School of Music for three years, but forget to mention it to Harmonia. She's lively and fun, and hates sitting still. She seems to be facing an inner turmoil, lately, though...

So there are your obtainable characters!

----------------
Minor Characters:

The Great Unicornian:
"What you see is not what you should belive, you know! AHAHAHA!"
Age: NOBODY KNOWS! She never seems to age, however she looks about 14...
She's the ruler of Tzarsia. Because she 'is super bored and needs something to do' she also looks over the school of music... She also goes by the name 'Kirsty.' Rounded up, she's a bit weird...

Merin the Great:
"Why am I friends with her again?"
Age: NOBODY KNOWS! She never seems to age, and like Kirsty, she looks about 14.
She's Kirsty's Second-in-command, but since Kirsty's a whiney brat, she's the one who Actually runs the place! She is really kind at heart, however, OFFEND HER SHIPPING AND YOU WILL DIE! She goes by the name 'Megan.'

Two words: Hell yes.
I'll definitely be keeping my eye on this.

I love the concept I don't know I just think an orchestra thing would be really well interesting I can't wait to see the human sprites and more added to the post.

Do it. Now.

I also demand that you include a saxophone so that way I can make the joke about sexyphones. I-I think I like The King already O: He's just so... grand. I expect you'll be following in similar footsteps to Hatoful Boyfriend? There's potential for lolz to be had here, and I'll keep an eye out for this.

I also expect this to be very punny.

I'm afraid to play this when it's finished because I might die laughing.

Just because it was mentioned in the bio...I want to see an oboe try and stab someone in the eye with a turnip.

Seriously, this is a thing that needs to be made. I'm looking forward to the result!

First thought: It's like Haotful Boyfriend but with instruments...

Second thought: WHEN CAN I PLAY IT?

Finish this... If not, I will hunt you, then lock you in a dungeon and force you to finish it. (Lol, jk.)

And I want to see a harp... and cymbals, but I don't want to sound demanding, so please disregard this.

Thankyou for all the replies!
(I am on an iPod, so I appologise in advance for not being able to quote, and autocorrect...)
We have played Hatoful, we loved it, and yes, we got the Idea from there, but don't think for a minuet (sorry, ALL THE PUNS!!!) we are copying them!!!
Ahaha~
I am now working on adding in a saxophone, harp (we already had a great idea for them!) and the cymbals!
Ahh! I'm so glad you guys want to play this!!
And of course it will be finished, pfft who needs to revise for exams when you have instruments to seduce?!

Hahaha, I was worried that this was never going to be made. No one's going to kick you off the Internet for this. If anything, you may win the keys to the Internet when this is released. Best of luck! And uh...yeah, good luck on cutting out that harp.
