Heaven's Grave Demo [Otome] [Fantasy]
Posted: Tue Nov 14, 2017 3:01 pm
Arha lives a simple life as a shrine maiden at a long-forgotten temple, finding joy in her worship, tending her small garden and occasional trips to the nearby village.
Then, one day, the sun does not rise…
It soon becomes apparent, though, that the now-erratic sun is the least of their problems. The wells and rivers are drying up and crops wither in the fields.
The villagers demand answers, but the gods, as ever, are silent. After a night of desperate prayer, Arha awakes – and she is not alone.
Three young men have appeared in the temple, finely dressed and impossibly beautiful, and, what is more, they claim to be gods. Powerless and confused, the four decide to travel to the First Temple to try to restore the balance of Heaven, before it is too late.
Accompany three fallen deities on a journey across a dying world, where hope is all man has left.

Hello all
I've been working on this game for a while now - the WIP is here for anyone who is interested.
As for the demo, it's just over 8000 words long and should have a playtime of about 30 minutes depending on reading speed.
Feedback would be very welcome
Thanks for reading
