While developing other Chapters of the full game, some changes were made concerning expanding the world's lore, including some new NPCs and altering some existing ones to fit some new story elements that are going to be in the complete story, and one major update: The Skills system has been completely overhauled. The names and hierarchy of the different types of Skills has been refined, streamlined, and given its own suffix-based tier system for Magic-based Skills that is unique to this universe. There are also brand new Skill animations during battle to reflect updated Skills that have been added to the game, and the labeling of "Skill Points" as "SP" is now completely consistent throughout the game (there are no more accidental appearances of the former "MP" for Magic Points abbreviation). Please enjoy the brand new Chapter 1 Demo - Refined Edition[\i] and enjoy what's been added and changed. Meanwhile, I'm hard at work developing the full game and soon to be doing a round of testing for a couple of the game's Chapters. Find me on Twitch and Discord at https://www.171stStreetGames.com if you're interested in being a tester!

Firebird: Legend of the Crystal Goddesses is a love letter to classic RPGs of the SNES era, inspired by 8-bit and 16-bit Final Fantasy and Dragon Quest titles, with an EarthBound-style mix of meta-humor thrown in.

The game follows a mercenary named Dameon Phoenix, a seemingly-ordinary swordsman with a secret past, as he takes on contracts for the local citizens in the Kingdom of Regatul. Along the way, he and his friends are set on a path to inadvertently unleash a devastating source of power, and wrestle with the aftermath while helping a powerful mage named Hanako undo what has been done.

Set in the colorful and magical world of Diyosia, Firebird: Legend of the Crystal Goddesses will take players across many different kingdoms and continents, sailing upon the seas, soaring up to the clouds above, and beyond the very mortal realm itself.

A classic fantasy adventure is yours to experience. Are you up to the task of saving Diyosia from being plunged into eternal darkness?
