Project Dualis [BxG]/Romance/Slice of life (update 8/2013)
Posted: Sat Dec 29, 2012 4:57 pm
IndieDB/Desura page is up! http://www.indiedb.com/games/project-dualis
(How do you name a game anyways? If someone knows the art of naming, give me a call.) In short, Dualis is a dual-arc Visual Novel on love and the meaning of one's self. It will be out in August or early September of 2013, with a free download on Desura and IndieDB's site.
Synopsis: Yuki and Yumi are sisters with opposite personalities, but in reality the two are tied together a lot more closely than what it first seems. (Let's just say there's a bit of fiction mixed with reality.) Our protagonist, Haru joins the already disbanded literary club together with bookworm Yuki, but soon ends on a collision course with her overprotective sister...
Artwork is now in the making, currently by http://drawingneko.deviantart.com. and the second artist on the project. http://josephseraph.deviantart.com
The work for gathering stock resources and music has been started, the game will feature a soundtrack by Kevin Macleod, http://www.incompetech with mainly piano music, jazz and perhaps some chiptunes. Lastly, the game is fully voiced, from main cast to narration, thanks to the VoiceIyuu Team. http://www.voiceiyuu.com
There's two main paths, and 3 endings which could be considered as true, plus the shorter bad ends. While it's BxG I don't think you could think of it as a dating sim either, that's not where the focus is.
Characters:
Haru: A first-year student at Kakunoshima high. Our protagonist is snarky at times and a bit too smart for his own good. Though he has a tendency to dream big.
"If someone had stopped me to ask what I was actually doing, my answer would have been something along the lines of 'To seek solitude...' Apparently, I thought there was something cool about being alone."
Keita: Haru's classmate, self-proclaimed 'bro' and best friend from middle school. He's always on full power setting and a little annoying to be around, though he means well. Currently dreaming of setting up a school band.
"C'mon, it's you and me, bro. What do say?"
Yuki: The shy, silent and lonesome bookworm. She just has a bit of trouble communicating her feelings, but in fact she's surprisingly talkative and tends to dream even bigger than our protagonist.
"Um, I just like to read..."/ "Plenty of other parts were missing as well. The girl had no legs, only her left arm was functioning properly and most importantly, she had no heart. The girl was mechanical, a machine." (a passage from her stories)
Yumi: The polar opposite of her sister, she's aggressive, realistic and straightforward. She appears strong on the outside, but she has only grown up that way, since she feels that she has to protect her sister.
"Huh? Got something to complain about?"
