Spirited Heart

[another guest]

well i played the demo and it looks like a pretty good game hooowever! its a bit short.. things shouldnt take a whole week to do.. and well i dont like the fact that most ending will end depending on your job.. though i do want to see the endings because the game itself is good. but because of so many job endings and only 6 marrige ones its like the sims then and no point in just being a girl then xD though i think you did very well on the "random encounters" kept me wanting more and thats only from the demo.. i do plan on buying the game though since there arent many "otome games" in english and this is worth it if you have some extra money to spend... anyway those are just my thoughts on the game.. i think a voice over would be good only if the Va's are really good and dont make the characters sound too awkward haha

guess what im trying to say is its a good game, but not the best still if im buying it that should be enough

I agree with this! I think you should make more games like this one though it seems your good at it, just a few more improvements and you have yourself a top notch game a lot of people here make good games, but this one i think is worth paying for. -goes to make an account- the past 2 games I've played here inspired me to make my own

So hey there! I know I'm a little slow on the uptake here with this game, but I just thought you'd like to know that tonight my two college-aged friends and I played this game obsessively tonight. XDDD We played like four games in a row. We LOVE IT.

It made us laugh, it made us cry (not kidding - Yuza's Elf Girl Ending made us tear up for sheer joy), it made us go "you dumb slut, STOP HAVING LOW MORALE GOSH DARNIT."

We basically had a ball. Thanks so much for this. It was $20 amazingly well spent. (We're not even done with it yet.)

I think you should make a sequel with maybe another race (or two) with two or four more guys and more jobs. Basically a bigger version with more goodies to uncover. Also maybe some ending CGs? That would be a good touch.

Loved it Jack! Thanks so much!

Thanks for the kind words
Actually, I've already started planning the sequel (and I still plan to update this one with some new stuff as soon as I have time). The sequel will have same races since 3 are a lot (I want to have completely different stories again), but probably more guys to met, and will also have some new features that will reveal only when it's almost done. One in particular is really cool (if I'll be able to implement it!).

Oh this is very exciting news!
I really loved Spirited Heart, it was a lot of fun playing it.

The deluxe version (still BETA there could be some bugs) is available to download. For more info: http://lemmasoft.renai.us/forums/viewto ... =16&t=6332

Ok I released the final version today. The last minute changes were:
- optional relationships (you can toggle this on/off in relationships screen)
- the goddess will now appear after 21 years, but only if you have a good amount of overall skills (the sum of all skills must be >150 , usually is enough to max 1 skill at 99 and then you should have enough points in remaining ones)
- I made easier to advance, otherwise at "normal" setting was almost impossible to reach the goddess goal. Now I think is more balanced.

Heheh.

I picked up on Spirited Heart again and was trying to accomplish one of the goddess' goal directly but got an error.

Every time she appeared, she always gave me the Scholar goal to aim for; however, when I actually play through the game and aim directly for those stats, the game quits on me after she appears again. Unfortunately, I quit out of the error out of anger so I don't have a copy to show you.

I played as a Human aiming for the Scholar goal directly because that's all she gave me during my other human plays. My stat from last I remembered (did not save <- also dumb) was 60 Wisdom, 30 Charisma, 30 Social, 40 Creativity. My Research and Reputation was about 40 then.

[jack_norton]

If you reload the same savegame is normal that she gives the same goal. About the crash I am not sure without having the detailed report can't do much. I haven't got a single bug report in months though, is weird... maybe you got an old version?

i like the new version but there no new guys to pick from at all

[Elemental-Butterfly]

the art looks cute and interesting. ^_^

[jack_norton]

I'm resurrecting this thread because I've been asked by some users in my forums to make an add-on. I have a sort of sequel but won't be out before next year (probably next summer), but an expansion would take less time to make indeed.
I've been asked to add more romanceable characters, in particular girls of course I know not everyone likes it so probably I would throw also some more males in it.
It would be cheap like $9.99 and maybe I'll also add some more gameplay/improvement (not sure yet what though).
If there's enough interest in this, I will definitely consider doing that since indeed the sequel is quite far away from being released, and getting back to write new scenes for that setting would be very fun for me

I'd be interested. So if you believe creating an expansion pack / enhanced version of Spirited Heart with possible GxG relationships is worth your time and effort, go for it.

[jack_norton]

Cool I think would be worth it, but since I like the setting, even if it doesn't sell really that good, would still be fun for me to make. So would be good anyway

[jack_norton]

Just one thing, the artist will have to be different since I lost completely contact with the original one. I'll try to pick a similar one though! ^_^;

i only got Spirited Heart but not the one with the goddess in it and pay Spirited Heart so do have go and pay more to get the add on for the game?
