The Lover's Mountain

#1 Post by Fenrir34 » Mon Sep 02, 2013 5:16 am

Author's Notes-If you want more info or progress check out my blog
http://adventheart.blogspot.com/

Plot- Plot- It is said that Mount Ahara grants wishes during the full moon to those who are seeking love in their lives. Sen, a girl whose has never experienced love in her life, goes with a group of friends during the full moon and makes a wish to know what love feels like in order to finish her novel. But such wishes are dangerous and love is never easy. Will she regret what she has done, or will she finally know what love really is.


Sen Akagi-The main character. She desires to finish her novel before her senior year ends so she can feel like she can accomplish something. But this proves difficult because she is having a very bad time writing romance scenes. Kind but a little lazy, Sen tries her best to complete her test and somehow keep up with her studies.

Noriko Akagi-Sen's older sister who is, at the moment, taking a break from college. After their parents left, Noriko decided to come back home and watch over Sen. Though serious and sometimes short-tempered, Noriko does love her sister and wishes she would do better in school.
seiji 2 smiling.png
Seiji Abe-One of Sen's classmates. Seiji is the idol of Sen's school and has captivated many hearts of the girls. Only problem is Seiji doesn't care much for being in a relationship and spends most of days practicing sports. Though like this, Seiji is a very nice and down to earth guy. Like Sen, he doesn't believe in the whole mountain rumor but does believe in fate. Seiji also has a love for food and a hobby in photography.

(Name changed)

Kiyoshi Morita-An underclassman at Sen's school. Shy and quiet, Kiyoshi likes to spend a lot of his time in the library after school. Because of his quiet nature, Kiyoshi is often bullied by the older students. He has a rather strange attachment to Sen because of how she always tries to save him from his tormentors. Outside of reading, Kiyoshi likes animals and wants to become a veterinarian after high school.

Hisoka Okada-A strange man who becomes Sen's tutor at her sister's request. Hisoka is a rather cold guy yet is a genius. There are, however, many rumors that he doesn't leave his home except to go get food. Hisoka is however very handsome and attracts women to himself, much to his dismay. Though a little rude, Hisoka does have a soft side for Sen and Noriko, who he seems to have known for a long time.
rin 2 happy.png
Rin Kobayashi-Sen's best friend. Rin is shy, reserves, and very nervous about things around her. She sees Noriko and Sen as her older sisters and family, since she is usually alone at home since her parents are always out. Rin believes in the rumors about the mountain helping lovers meet and constantly daydreams about if she will find a lover. Though she has a crush on Seiji, she is to shy to tell him how she feels. Has a talent for cooking and is also rather feminine.
akane angry .png
Akane Temura-A very cute, hyper, and happy girl who believes it's her fate to marry the best guy in the world. Though not enemies, she sees Sen as a rival because of Seiji's friendship with her. Akane has a love for everything cute and pretty, and one day hopes to become a model. Though not evil, she can do the wrong things and sometimes hurts people. She is also in the class as Kiyoshi.

Since you asked for feedback, here are two comments...

1: what if her wish comes true, but things do not go as she expected?

2: would this story work just as well if it took place anywhere other than Japan?

Actually those are good questions and that's what happens actually. As for the second, I guess I'm just used to making my games in japan. But maybe you're right and I can change that. Should I... :? ? I'm not sure. I'll have to think about it. But still thanks

All done by Tokudaya. All I did was arrange the sprites on Gimp. Thanks though :).

Also I like simple sprites to sometimes. To colorful, for example, can sometimes make me dizzy :?

Wow. This looks really neat! I love the simplicity ad soft colors; reminds me a lot of my favorite anime films/series such as Natsume Yuujinchou and studio ghibli films in general. Will this be voiced as well?

Thanks. The sprites are done by Tokudaya and the backgrounds are from various places. And cool. I love ghilbi and Nastume. One of the best animes and companies out there.

Sadly no though. Just a simple Vn with choices and different paths
