Lemma Soft Forums

Hello everyone, this is a solo project by me, but I've found open resources for usage as background, music, SFX, sprites etc. Sad to say there will be no CG because well, you should know the reason. Of course it will be a free to play VN. And I'm very new here, so much that I don't even know what to post here.

Actually this is just a practice for me before I head into the VN that I wanted to do before this. However the VN I have in mind will be very long, so I need a practice piece first, and this is that practice. I started on this on the 20th Feb, so it's been 1 week into progress. I've completed the introduction for Dante and Marsin the game, and as of 7th Sep I have completed the introduction for Seraphim.

I have the ending in mind already, but I'm not so sure as to how long this VN will be due to the fact that I am panning the characters out as the story go along, so I can't really vouch for their personality as of now. Also, as you know, I am using free to use sprites that I can find here and some other places, so some of the expressions and design are limited. But I try my best to fit the background/sprites etc. in the game so they won't look out of place.

You can see some of the screenshots I attached to this post.

As for the character Seraphim I will attach a sprite here.

Summary: In a world where three beings fight to conquer it, only you can put an end to it.
As the of a certain Hominina - race in my VN - you possess the power required to rule over all. The question is, which of the Hominina will you help? - The , the , or the I want to keep my summary short so that I can try not to give away any spoilers.

Question: Do you find this interesting?
Will anyone be interested to do beta-ing for me on a frequent basis? AKA. Whenever I make new updates to my VN with a significant length.
Would you like me to release character profile for the different routes or not at all? If yes, what kind of information would you like to know about them? Because in my VN I'm planning to do a Hominina information note like a "Pokedex" whenever the chance is right.


I will have 5 endings to my story. 3 good endings, 1 bad and 1 true ending that will only be unlocked when you finish all the routes. At least that's my plan for now. I'll keep it simple in the sense that only 2 choices that will be relevant to the plot and the routes.
But I'll add a few interactive choices that won't affect the ending in the game so that it's engaging, plus they will have different responses.

Maybe I'll just release one route first for now when completed because I need some feedback. That's it for now. See you until next time!

hello there! congrats on your plan of a new VN~ actually, looking at the plot and the story etc, this is an interesting one for me, but well sadly there's no cg and i know why so don't worry about it(^^)
i'm looking forward to see your new progress in the future, good luck!

Thank you! It means a lot to me!

I realized that editing my post don't bring up my thread, so I'm doing a minor reply here. Still looking for feedback and beta-readers!

Hello SephiriaChronos,

With so little information it's hard to have a real opinion.
I like the sprites and the concept, but I don't like the part : "and 1 true ending that will only be unlocked when you finish all the routes "
Of course having the guys personnality/background would be a plus : talkative, cold, playfull, untrustworthy .... As for the background who are they? random people, commoners, outcasts, other?

If you need, I'm willing to look through what you wrote even if I'd be much more interesting with a demo

Hello Arkhane,

regarding this topic it's because it's my first game, and there's nobody to guide me and such, so I'm having a bit of a difficulty on how to start a topic that may be interesting to others. So thank you for the input! Regarding the character introduction, I'm debating on a bit on whether to post a character profile because I have no fixed personality in mind as I'm just letting the characters write themselves as my plot progresses. And I am still in the stage of writing so I have no idea idea how it will progress. Maybe I can update that when I am almost finished with the plot.

I have a demo ready, but I'm not sure if it'll be a good idea to release it since the story is not fully completed yet. As in, physically anyway. But if you're interested I can send you the link for the game that I've completed up until.

Also, regarding the part on "and 1 true ending that will only be unlocked when you finish all the routes", I'm sorry that you don't like it. Maybe you can tell me more on why? Cause for my story I find that only when you have interaction with all of the characters will there open the only way for the story to proceed in the best ending possible.

Thank you again! Your feedback means a lot to me!

Hello SephiriaChronos,

I'm interested in demo! Even if it's not finished and such. It's easier to have an idea this way.

I understand for the characters, but have you already decided a bit on their background? You can always edit them if they evolve.
People could give you their advices on it. Who knows it could help you to adjust or find new ideas.

The thing is, that I prefer to choose which pathes I want to take or not, and I don't like to have to do one if I don't feel like it.
As for bad ends, I usually avoid them at all cost. I'm an hopeless romantic so I won't spent time on something that won't end well

Hope it helps
