Drama, Mystery, Horror, Psychological thriller
The Symbol - Chronicles is a Visual Novel series consisting of 4 Chapters which will be based on real life and fictional events. The first 3 Chapters will include possible Arcs or consequences depending on the players choices and decisions done on every situation and may not or lead to the true ending.

The Chain of Memories will tell the root of all madness behind the characters throughout the series, may also hold the key to unlock the mystery of an unknown neural disease which is thought to be the main cost of the endless killing spree.

This chapter will mainly focus about the story of a boy who started and ended the most terrible massacre in the history.
Image
The Grand Massacre will be the beginning of the Philippine Civil War, there will be war between schools and government departments, violence is frequent during this time. A love triangle is the reason of the massacre.
Image
The Fall Of Calabarzon will end the first 3 Chapters about the main characters. I don't want to spoil this yet. :D
Image
This chapter will be about the daughter of the boy of the first 3 chapters of the series, she seeks to find the truth why her mother died and why all such madness should happen.

Sounds like you've got a pretty lengthy and serious story in mind. Will the BxG and GxB pairings be just a portion of the overall plot? Does it need romance options?

Also, it appears you've been working on this story for quite some time. Have you been making sure its scope doesn't grow too large or too difficult to handle?

This seems like something fun to work on... Detailed stories are good. That said, Episode 0 shares a name with a Kingdom Hearts game. You might want to look into that. Let me know if you need a spare hand or two.

Nice lineart, btw.

Thank You! I haven't played Kingdom Hearts at all, I'd just came up with the name The Chain of Memories since in that chapter, there will be no plenty of choices or totally no choices to choose from. It will basically reveal the life behind each characters which is composed of half a hundred persons.

And this project is pretty huge but thats fine, i want it this way so it will be done that way!

The Story had bin in progress and planned to be a Manga nor a Full-length Film but we doesn't have that much money to pay J.C Staff :D

I am also planning to sell the last 2 Chapter, Afterlife will be the longest chapter of all the series and will much more than 6 possible endings and might have a very little chance to get to the true ending. I will release both English and Japanese version of the VN

Currently working on a character sprite, for now its just a rough sketch:

Hello, sorry for the late updates! I've bin researching on a better engine and i would like to ask your opinion if it is okay to redevelop the game as a third-person game? I am planning to use UDK(Unreal Develpment Kit), i might do some assets for a while so post up your opinions about shifting to UDK instead of Renpy, Unity is also available!

Both of which have licensing hoops to jump through if you're not paying attention closely enough. There are some others, but if you're making a VN, then Ren'Py is generally the way to fly. As far as third-person, only one way to find out, and that's to try them out. That said, do a little homework before you commit. Picking the wrong one will kick you in the butt faster than you can blink. You also want to look at 2D vs 3D engine concerns. It you're looking at FFVI, there are more options after that. As soon as you move to FFVII, you run into completely different issues, and you have to think carefully.
