Hey LemmaSoft,
I'm back with another post to say that the first visual novel game I've worked on has now been released on Steam~! You can find the store page here: http://store.steampowered.com/app/396650/
ACE Academy is a comedy-centric, slice-of-life, visual novel with sci-fi and romance elements. The unique turn-based gameplay lets you design your GEAR configuration and see how it stacks against your rivals. With hundreds of choices available, you can experience the storyline and interact with characters in a much more personalized way.
Although I'm posting in "Completed Games" section, AA is planned as an episodic series that will be available through the Steam client, and we're already well underway with Episode 2~
Story:
I am the Lead Programmer for the project and we are excited to move forward with future new episodes of content. Let me know what you think about it, any other thoughts or questions in this forum thread ^o^In the year 2049, mechanized robots commonly called GEAR were developed for military application. Since then, their versatile functionality has lead them to not only become commonplace in commercial use, but spawn an entire sports entertainment industry altogether. The prevalent use and popularity of GEARs has created a new academic field known as “Cenorobotics”.
Due to unforeseeable circumstances, the protagonist finds himself transferring to ACE Academy, a premier school for Cenorobotics studies in Japan. He struggles to find a team willing to accept him and his outdated “American” GEAR to compete in the intramural tournament. When compared to the sleek, robust, and advanced technologies of the Japanese counterparts, his search feels utterly hopeless. That is, until he finds a group of pilots just desperate enough for another member. This is where your story begins.
You can also hit me up directly on Steam or on the game's community discussion boards too. Hope you all have a great Thursday :3
