Fixed some minor grammar and misspellings.

New game announced: Evil Lawyer Alexander Twist!

The game is in the mystery/supernatural genre, set in Paris in the 1960s. It will have a system similar to Ace Attorney in the sense that you choose an evidence to counter someone's argument, but, and that's a big but, instead of just finding holes in the witnesses' testimony, ANY sentence can be objected(with varying effectiveness, of course), so you will have to be on your tows the whole trial. The synopsis of the story: Following a mysterious plague in the 1940s, 40% of the humans on earth acquired a superpower. To combat the chaos and the new "superpowered criminals" the law system had to go under heavy reform, now adopting the principle of "Guilty until proven innocent" alongside heavy bias of the judges toward the prosecution. As a result, almost every single case ends in a guilty verdict. Only one person in Paris manages to combat the unfair law system with his intelligence, cheating, and four hamster companions: Alexander Twist. He was riding on the waves on success until he was found himself in a cell, framed for arson and murder. He must now turn this unlucky situation on its head and beat the opposing prosecutor, Elena Waddington, at her own game. But if he succeeds, a fate far worse than 25 years in jail awaits him... Here is one of the hamsters, Cupcake the gluttonous and dim-witted hamster:
The game will be divided to 5 chapters and feature 2 protagonists(Alexander and Elena), with each chapter containing a challenging trial. Prepare to some crazy and creative crimes!

Join the game's Discord!

I invite you to join the official Discord of "How Stories Die" and VisualBagel, I am posting there updates about the game and funny comics(like the one below) weekly. Here is the link: https://discord.gg/MjHHE9 I thought that once more users join I will do even more fun stuff like surveys that will influence the plot of my next VN(I have a great idea for that one), games, and even special content! 0: The server also functions as a 24/7 AMA, you can ask me anything you like, from stuff about the game to unrelated topics like anime and cryptography. If you have any other ideas I would love to hear! Hope to see you there!

A final release date and another important announcement.

Hey, so due to personal reasons the release will be postponed to October. I am really sorry about it, but I don't want to give out a rushed product, I hope you understand. Also, I noticed that I am not being very transparent with you guys(as you can see with the amount of updates I've been posting), and I want to be more in touch with you. I would be really happy if you could hit up my discord server, I just opened it. You can ask any questions you would like there, plus I will do my best to post some funny content that will also expand the lore a little bit and give insight into the daily lives of the characters(like the one below). Link for discord: https://discord.gg/btSQhb An important note: Although that up until now I didn't post a lot of updates, I am working steadily on the game everyday. It's in good hands.

Partial OST, Spanish translation and release delay

Hello there! There will be a partial OST for the game made by Alex Shea including themes for Nozomi and Haruka(with a few versions, but telling you what they are will be spoilers). I am collaborating with Spanish translation group gamer japones, so the game will also be available in Spanish(not at release, give them time). The bad news are that the game will be delayed in 4 months(who knew that a degree in software engineering will take so much of your time?), I will do my best to finish it by then.

  • Story


    "Once the child of prophecy turns 18, he shall eat the golden fruit and gain enough powers to defeat the demon king" - ???

    Horace lived a cozy and nice life as the prince of Alteria until his father sent him a letter that changed his life. In the letter he was required to escort the child of prophecy to the palace.

    Surprisingly, when he arrives at the meeting place, he encounters three girls, each claiming to be the true hero.

    From here Horace is tasked with uncovering the real hero, or at least waiting until his father's sickness is over so he can roll over the responsibility to him. But time is not on Horace's side, as a mysterious voice appears in his dreams calling him both "master" and "enemy" and the army of hell marches closer and closer...

    Features


    -25-35 hours of story.

    -3 unique routes with completely different atmospheres, each based on one of the classing RPG roles: The mage, warrior and rogue.

    -Overarching mystery, bringing a new take on meta.

    -About 12 endings + true ending (not including bad ends or comedic ends).

    -13+ beautifully drawn CGs.

    -Tons of terrible jokes from Nozomi.


    Characters



    Nozomi Taara

    Nozomi is a cheerful and energetic girl. She lived in the forest most of her life with her demonic magician gangster bunny mentor so she doesn't know a lot about civilized society and gets excited about every little thing(with a lot of funny misunderstandings).
    Nozomi has an endless supply of sexual jokes and puns and has a talent to use them exactly in the worst time. She isn't the sharpest tool in the shed but she has a great affinity for magic.(magic is mainly used by demons)

    Riko Futukami

    Riko has a short fuse and quite a lot of ego. She won numerous gladiator championships before with her amazing agility. Her ego is quite fragile, and with her
    childish and stubborn attitude that's quite the explosive combo. She loves drinking and talking like a walking thesaurus. Riko's former family was a family of gladiators but they disowned her for being too weak. Now Riko plans to beat her father in the finals and take revenge on him. She also possesses a drawing of Horace for some reason...

    Haruka Saionji

    Haruka is a shy and insecure girl. She is a genius that solves riddles in the blink of an eye and predicts what others will do based on cold logic. She lives in the slums of the Capital and is very physically weak. Although Haruka is insecure most of the time, when she faces an intellectual challenge her personality transforms into a very dominant and confdient one. She also holds some very strong political views regarding the royal family. Contrary to her innocent looks, she hides a lot of very dark truths, some of which even she doesn't fully understands...
