SuNoFes: Renascent Blood [Dark Vampire x Romance]

#1 Post by Neeka »

!CW: Game contains mentions of self-harm + suicide, as well as light blood.

Renascent Blood follows the life of Kafara, a young woman who wakes in a strange estate. With a myriad of thoughts clouding her mind, one stands out from the rest.

"I should be dead."

As she meets the other inhabitants of the estate, she is informed of an important fact of life: she's been reborn as a vampire.

Thrust into a new world, she must navigate life with the help of the residents of Marshport Estate, from dealing with budding fangs to spiking bloodlust. Relying on them is her only hope and chance at living.

Will she take this second chance at life?

Despite the initial dark nature of the game, there are lighter scenes befitting Slice of Life, as well as romantic scenes.

Note: The Jam version is limited to a short version of Idris' Route. So far the choices affect dialogue/scenes, but NOT the ending. The full version of the game will have:
  • All Romance Routes
    Longer Common Route
    Lengthier Routes/Epilogue
    More CGs
    Meaningful Choices
    Multiple Endings
Cast:

Kafara, the newly awakened vampire

Image


Idris, the Manager of the Estate

Image


Kellam, the Houseman

Image


Ishmael, the Gardener

Image


Reyes, the Cook

Image


Lilith, the listening ear and confidant

Questions for You: What do you think of the initial premise of the game? Who do you think your favorite character is? Who would you like to romance? Would you like dark 'bad' endings or would you rather keep the game more lighthearted and focus on Kafara's overall growth? Any additional comments?

Hello,

It's hard to have a good advice with so little information.
The art is nice and the plot looks interesting.
Only based on physics, Idris is my favorite, I like his cool composure, white hairs and piercing eyes (even though red would have been better). The other are not bad either, I am wondering where it will lead to.
I don't mind dark characters, but I avoid as much as I can bad ends, so do you as like XD

If Idris is the manager? Is there a dark one hiding behind the scene who owns the house? Some hidden big bad character to catch?

Have fun and good luck with your project :3

Heyo! The project looks great! I particularly like Idris' design -- the dark skin and white hair gives him a very Drow-look.

Also, super cool to see another Visual Novel Maker user! I just switched over and am loving it. Best of luck with your game!
Hey, I'm making a game about kissing cute fast food mascots! Check it out here right here.

Ah, thank you so much!
I am especially fond of his design as well. ^^
Yes, the engine has been very good to me so far!

Hello,

Finished the first run.

I really like the art. The different backgrounds are nice and Idrys's grin is really attractive. Aside from that, I had fun to look at Kafara's sparkly face when she gets her first breakfast.

The story so far is different from the usual. There are a few holes in it but I assume that they will be filled with the other characters' routes.

I do hope Kellam's route is next.

Have fun with your project :)

Thank you so much for your kind words! And yes, Kellam isn't as mean as he first comes across lol As for the holes they should all be filled in the final, full version (whenever that comes out!)
