This is a Renpy-based visual novel that has been worked on chiefly by me and one other person over the past several years. Our group is called Ashes Aflame, which will eventually have an official logo to represent our brand. We are mostly done with the dialogue and the codebase for basic battle system for the purposes of a demo. We are still in the process of gathering more art and audio assets, as well as fine tuning the UI and overall feel of the visual novel, but we are otherwise relatively close to releasing a demo which would cover the first chapter of the story.
Introduction
Blood Destiny is a visual novel that takes place in a fictional version of the world, during the year 2245. About 200 years have passed since the Third World war that devastated the whole planet, which is now divided into four enormous supernations. The story revolves around a young mercenary named Jack Smith, who is part of an organization named Olympia which accepts contracts from the four nations to deal with supernatural threats. Jack is a proud and confident fighter who aspires to become the strongest in the world. Over the course of the story, he will be drawn into various conflicts involving legendary creatures, ancient civilizations lost to history, and unsolved mysterious from his own past.
There are several heroines in the story that will serve as potential love interests to Jack. The player may select different choices throughout the novel to influence the story's direction, and potentially which heroine he ends up with. Once every regular route has been cleared, the final route will be unlocked which will lead to the True Ending of the story. There will also be turn-based RPG battles where the player will have to fight various enemies.

Next Steps
I am currently in the process of getting the art assets (backgrounds, characters, battle sprites), as well as fine tuning the UI and battle system. I will post updates here over time as the visual novel comes closer to completion.
