It is not in the plans just yet. But if we hear more desire for it then I will try to make it work. After the PC release, I'll be working on a mobile conversion first as well.
1] I'll begin an android version starting after the release of MoonFire for PC. Since I am just one person I can only do so much while trying to complete the original game, but it is planned to come!
2] There are talks with the publisher so we're still in planning phase for the release of the game. We are hoping for Summer but a guaranteed date has yet to be set. Feel free to follow us here or on Steam so you don't miss out on any information we get to share.
So the demo on itch is currently Chapters 1 and 2 only. All the chapters (8 total) will be in the full game release. If I'm assuming you are asking if the story will release all at once, the answer to that is also yes. Once you pay for the game you'll have access to the entire story as it will all be released day one. I hope I answered that right, feel free to correct me if I was mistaken on your question.
We did just get picked up by a publisher recently, so we're still figuring out some release situations. It'll be best to follow and Wishlist on Steam as well so you don't miss when we release.
Okay, I'm just gonna ask, because it seems that every game that has werewolves that look like Hugh Jackman from Van Hellsing is a Bara game, (sorry, I'm straight, but respect to the makers of such!), is this game SFW or if it's NSFW is it all Bara or is there something for straight dudes like me? Sorry if this sounds offensive, not trying to be, just kinda jonesin' for a good werewolf game, but there's basically barebones at best besides Bara games. Seriously, why do wolves always get sidelined for RPG's or used for Bara?
Heya, thanks for wording the question to not seem offensive, it was not received as such. To be on point, MoonFire is not Bara nor is it NSFW. We would be forefront with any information if it was 18+ rated.
MoonFire is a medieval VN-RPG with animal characters, with the focus of the story on the player - the main characters - and their roles in the world the player falls into. Since we have 55+ total characters, some will represent many other interests, because I like to create vast characters with different appeals and personalities.
Stenmere (The built 'werewolf') is one of many, but I think in reference to a 'bara' style there is really only like 2-3 others like him in that entire pool of characters. If those were factors you were unsure of, I'd say you may find this game interesting, as there are a majority of non bara-esque characters within it and no one person is meant to find all 55+ characters appealing/likable.
My friend just download the game upload by anthonytheman accidentally, and there's a malware run on his PC when he play the fake game, for a while his Discord account start send the anthonytheman's fake game page on itch dot io to his friends (include me).
Hey this looks really neat! I'll be awaiting y'alls release owo
I did see in a few comments that the lack of romance off-put them--tbh I play mostly romance novels, but I do enjoy those ones that aren't. It's not a big turn off for me, but if there is "bonding" where you get to know the characters well, like "trust" levels or something, that'd be cool!
Thank you, that is good to know! Yuy yup, you can bond with several of the companions in the game as well. Sort of a close friendship, if you want to get to know more about them.
Right. Unfortunately there will always be stylistic choices that won't please everyone.
Do note though, there's a reason for it and is heavily story/lore based rather than just a random decision. It is unfortunate that stops you from experiencing MoonFire, maybe next time!
Indeed, story and lore come first. It is also neutral, as anyone can relate to a human. However, if the MC is defined as fox, wolf, or cat, etc... some people who prefer another species that the MC is not might feel left out.
From just a glance, it sort of reminds me of winds of change. I must say, perhaps you could get more people by including some romance in it. Or nsfw. I saw you already made a post about it, but I simply wished to say something. A lot of the popular visual novels do tend to have some sort of romance option in them. I love seeing new visual novels that flourish. Yours seems like it could very well be one of the popular ones. I know its up to you on how to make the novel, which is totally fine! Its still a good story which really defines the whole visual novel. I for one greatly enjoy romance VN's. I do also tend to share the visual novels I really enjoy with other people to try and get more people to download them. Either way, I will recommend this to my friends and others! ^^ I was just curious if you would maybe add romance in the future. But it seems like its well made and I look forward to the future.
Thank you for the comment! Yeah I definitely think more people may enjoy it if it had romance, which is why I decided to add bonding to at least have some of that aspect. But we're also trying to separate ourselves from most other VNs out there.
However, with how far I am now in the writing, I feel like it might not feel authentic to change it to romantic in any sense. I honestly think I could make a really intriguing game if I made the premise around that instead, so I can definitely see myself doing another game with a rich, romanticism aspect and mechanics involved in the future.

will we get a mac version
It is not in the plans just yet. But if we hear more desire for it then I will try to make it work. After the PC release, I'll be working on a mobile conversion first as well.
I have tow question. when it's fully released will there be also a android version? and when will this full game be released ?
Hello, happy to answer!
1] I'll begin an android version starting after the release of MoonFire for PC. Since I am just one person I can only do so much while trying to complete the original game, but it is planned to come!
2] There are talks with the publisher so we're still in planning phase for the release of the game. We are hoping for Summer but a guaranteed date has yet to be set. Feel free to follow us here or on Steam so you don't miss out on any information we get to share.
Quick quesstion, since the upcoming full release will be in this year. Does this mean the entire chapter of this story will be covered together?
So the demo on itch is currently Chapters 1 and 2 only. All the chapters (8 total) will be in the full game release. If I'm assuming you are asking if the story will release all at once, the answer to that is also yes. Once you pay for the game you'll have access to the entire story as it will all be released day one. I hope I answered that right, feel free to correct me if I was mistaken on your question.

When the game is fully released do I still need to pay for it?

Sounds good to me! And again, heh, sorry!
Thanks for making this! We need more content creators like you more than ever!
Happy Holidays!
Thank you - much appreciated.
Happy Holidays !
Was this made in Renpy or some other program? I love the game so much been checking nonstop from my steam wishlist to see when it will be released
First, thank you so much Amaranth!~
Its being made in Unity and full release coming 2024. I had to push it out just a tad to get everything together.
Hey, is the MoonFire upload by anthonytheman legit or a scammer trying to take your work?
My friend just download the game upload by anthonytheman accidentally, and there's a malware run on his PC when he play the fake game, for a while his Discord account start send the anthonytheman's fake game page on itch dot io to his friends (include me).
Definitely a scam! Please do not download or click any links not sent from us or anything not from this official account!
We're contacting itchio currently and hoping it can be taken care of
Hello! I have a question, is MC a human or anthro?
According to the story description, they're human:

really want to try this game but mc being human stops me :(

Thank you much, Ocean! Very good point as well
downloaded the game for the dnd style combat, and stayed for the excellent story
10/10 can't wait for the full game.

Thank you so much! =D

So whether you want to stick around for MoonFire specifically, or follow us for games in the future, would love to have you around! ^^
Ah if you do make a game in the future about romance, I would really enjoy it. But I will try this one!
