School Panic: Lucas' Misplaced Trust
Just last week I was a pretty average guy. I played cards with my best friend at lunch, procrastinated over homework, and was even beginning to develop a relationship with a girl. In hindsight, it was a good life. Now... all that is gone. The girl I liked is avoiding me, and my best friend has become a distance melancholic. I'm even getting blackmailed to betray the one person who is still there for me. Could my life get any worse?
School Panic is set at Coorandale High School. A place where house rivalries are taken to a whole new level. The game follows the experiences of Drago Pain (working name) as he and his house get unsuspectingly caught up in the middle of a feud between the Green Geckos (Green House) and the Red Ribbons (Red House). There will be love, loss, betrayal, school work, practical jokes, and gossip. Plenty of gossip.
The game is set to be organized into five chapters: Lucas' Misplaced Trust, Kiah's Perfect Revenge, Yukiko's Neverending Drama, Nomiya's Forbidden Palace, and Jarrah's Wild Ride.
This beta test contains the first episode, which features three core paths that splinter into seven or so endings. The source code for this episode is just shy of 40000 words. Don't worry about the size though, you'll only be exposed to a fraction of that during a single play-through.
There are a few images and action sequences that need completing, but story wise this episode is finished. It just needs a bit of polishing (hence the beta test).
It is going to be a very long time before I release the full version.
