After several months of work and iterations, here's the new Ecosphere-Demo, for the VN Steam Fest! You can find it here.
You can get to know the main characters through the first hour (approx.) of gameplay. The demo follows directly from the Prologue released in December 2022. As Creative Director, I know that development time is fairly long for a VN, but this allows us to offer you the best possible technical rendering! I'm pleased with the progress I've made in programming over the last few months.
We've kept the point-and-click exploration mechanics and dynamic QTE choices from the previous demo. But we've completely overhauled the drag-and-drop system to simplify it, while still allowing you to interact with the backgrounds.
Although the basics are there, the sound design is still highly perfectible and will be fine-tuned in the future!
We hope you enjoy this universe as much as we enjoy creating it! Don't hesitate to give us your feedback in the Steam Community or on our social networks to further improve the project steamhappy

You play as Leily Stirner, the Pirate Princess! Mandated by a mysterious mission's sponsor, she must infiltrate a memorial to steal an orb capable of controlling nature: the Ecosphere!
But beware: each decision will impact the progress of your mission... Will you manage to steal the precious loot?
This free prologue (about 15-30 minutes of non-linear visual novel's gameplay) will be the opportunity to lay the foundations of a much bigger universe!
An atypical universe
Enter a universe mixing Fantasy, Steampunk, and Pirates! A planet where magical powers meet technology. A world where humans are born with an Affinity: the mark that gives the ability to master one of the four natural elements!Interactive Fiction
During the adventure, you will regularly have choices to decide the best way to enter the Memorial and influence the story. Two ends and several tactics to achieve them.Point & click
Explore and interact with your environment using a drag-and-drop system: dragging items from your inventory and dropping them in-game to unlock contents.Battle mode
Based on Quick Time Event, a battle mode is integrated for casting spells. Press the button before it's too late: if you click the attack button, you trigger the magic. If you miss it, the opponent attacks, and you suffer damage!Turbomedia
