We wanted Irathian Chronicles to stir up complex feelings with its story, depth through its lore, connection with its unique characters, and awe through its creative artwork.
HOWEVER, one thing we absolutely wanted to have, were game-play mechanics that made our game more engaging and fun!
Inspired by games such as the Ace Attorney Series and Persona Series, we set out to create a game system that will leave players hanging onto every moment of game-play!
Harsh Reality: From the various city factions to specific individuals, almost everyone within Melindus has a hidden side or agenda. As the player, you’ll face situations both joyful and uplifting, to tragic and cruel. Help navigate Sophia through events that will shake her beliefs and help her grow stronger.

Here are some portrait shots of our main (left) and supporting(right) characters:

Despite her efforts, she leads the life of a caged songbird, given enough freedom to fly but never soar.
Celest Nosorov
A quiet and polite young woman, also best friend of Sophia.
Despite her usual appearance and demeanor, she can get very excited and passionate when it comes to reading her graphic novels: Philorians over Flowers.
Jonathan Goldtalon
The second son within the Goldtalon Family.
Jonathan is said to be the playboy of the family and for most of the Gold Tier citizens.

He and his bodyguard, Kazuho, are also said to be the heart-throb of the entire C.S.F
Kazuho Tamayaki

Kazu, as he’s been nicknamed by his fans, is a devilishly handsome Philorian whose made his way into the hearts of both men and women within Melindus.

The first born and future heir of the Goldtalon Family.
Ray, as his younger siblings call him, is the “ideal” son, soldier, politician, and leader.
Being first born and raised to be the future head of the household, his life was filled with discipline and learning.
His no-nonsense attitude makes him appear cold and uncaring, yet it doesn’t stop the citizenry from admiring his appearance.

Hey Folks, My name is Demitrio, but I go by FrontierGai/Guy. I’m the Creator, Coder, and Writer for Irathian Chronicles: On Golden Wings being developed by the 3 man group from Frontier First Innovations LLC. Being an EXTREME fan of RPGs, I saw the great value in Visual Novels for the ability to focus on story while keeping just enough gameplay involved to make it exciting and engaging. I’ve been developing this game for over a year and a half with mainly the creation of the world, lore, and characters. I wanted to create a game world that gave players plenty of inspiration and lore that would encourage them to create Fanfics and RPs based off of it.
While in the early stages of development, I managed to find two DA Freelancer artists who believed in my project and were willing to work for the little amount I could afford at the time. Since then, month by month, we’ve been slowly building assets and bringing the game to life. We hope to create a game series that’s entertaining, unique, and engaging enough to encourage community involvement and consistently bring memorable games to everyone.
