Chasing the Stars [BxB] [DEMO available] [RELEASED]
Posted: Sun Apr 02, 2017 2:14 pm
While A Hand in the Darkness is being wrapped up, let me introduce my new "baby":
After building some satellite cities as a test, the Earth is finally terraforming its first colony, the planet Alaya.
Tirs Abril has always dreamt of going to space, and now he's determined to take part in the colonization. Following his dream, he's currently studying the last year of Environmental Engineering in college.
After breaking up with his boyfriend, he finally finds his sought-after chance: working as a scholarship researcher with Professor Marc Rossell, a prominent figure in the field of Environmental Engineering, and right now in charge of building the dome that will cover the inhabitable part of Alaya. However, Tirs soon will find out things are more complicated than he thought and his path won't be precisely a rose garden.
How much is Tirs willing to sacrifice to pursue his dream? What risks or actions is he going to deem acceptable to achieve his goal? Will he reconsider his options or advance as an unstoppable force, no matter what? His decisions are up to you!
Instead of going for definite routes, for this vn I have planned more something along a gamebook, where there are many different endings depending on your choices, and you have the chance to change to another character's route at least once.
And for the seme/uke tropes, after taking a look at different opinions about BL visual novels (plus mine, of course), I want every sex scene to have an option to choose if you (Tirs) want to top or bottom, or also if you prefer to skip the scene in case you are not interested in seeing H scenes but you still want to read the story. There will be two threesome scenes as well.
MAIN FEATURES, so far:
-THREE love interests
-Multiple endings
-Top/Bottom/Skip adult content options
-Two threesomes
-Around 75k words (more or less 7-8 hours of gameplay)
-CG Gallery
-Choices Guide
Demo available on itch.io AND Steam! Play the first scenes, roughly 9k words (less than an hour) and tell us what you think!
We have now a video opening on YouTube!
FEEDBACK TIME!
1. Is the general plot appealing to you? Is it boring, interesting...?
2. Is there something specific you would like to see in a BL visual novel?
3. What do you think about the multiple endings and the possibility of changing to another character's route? Is is too open for your taste?
4. Do you like the characters so far? Which one do you like best?
5. Any suggestion or criticism?
You can also chat about the game or BL games in general on Discord!

Pol is Tirs' best friend since Highschool. He studies History at the same University.
Marc Rossell is an ambitious University teacher.
Biel is working under Dr. Rossell, designing the ecosystem that's going to be implemented in Alaya.
The action takes place in a slightly retrofuturistic Barcelona (let's say the Barcelona of 20 years in the future with some steam-powered machines). The title refers to Tirs' lifelong dream, but we won't be seeing rockets: it's all about how Tirs manage to achieve (or not) his dream, so everything will happen mostly in the University: we'll see college mates meeting at the cafeteria, planning stuff in the Departments and working hard (or doing other things) at the labs and offices.Instead of going for definite routes, for this vn I have planned more something along a gamebook, where there are many different endings depending on your choices, and you have the chance to change to another character's route at least once.
