Shattered - Why Not Me is a visual novel/action game starring a magical girl (kinda) and set in a medieval fantasy world. It was created for the Magical Girl Game Jam, though it might have missed the mark. There's a devlog of sorts here.

Gameplay

This game is a hybrid between a visual novel and first-person brawler. In story segments, you can choose responses in conversations which will affect how the story plays out. In the first-person segments, you must fight for your life in high-intensity combat.

Storyline

The daughter of a minor noble, Lady Briella Brukton dreams of being a true knight, slayer of evil and protector of the innocent. By day, she fakes her way through the lessons and duties expected of a lady. By night, she duels trees and smithy's boys with a stick. She dreads the day when she will be married, which grows nearer each day. But soon, she will find herself in a fight she never asked for, with powers she can barely control...
