I like the concept really. I was wondering if we could cooperate sometimes.

Thank you! I will make the necessary changes.

(1 edit)


The game is ancient Egyptian/Ancient Greek/Ancient Rome themed low fantasy visual novel game about possession, politics and love with a Lovecraftian flavor.

Looking for specific background images all with no characters or crowds:

Human sacrifice alters (ancient Greek style).

Throne room (ancient Egyptian style, viewed from the throne.)

Bedrooms (ancient Greek, ancient Egyptian and ancient Roman styles).

Temple of Isis (different rooms)

Dungeons and secret passages

Caves

An ancient Egyptian tomb

Roman military camp

Tent of Cleopatra

Tent of Roman general

A great library (Ancient Greece Style) 

Small icon images for choices (use strength, use charm, use intelligence, use speed)

Please take a look. If it is your cup of tea or coffee or milk and my idea rhymes with your melodies. Please let me know.

All are welcome.

Here is a video playthrough of the prologue of the project. 

The team has an artist who is working on the characters now, but we still need better backgrounds inspired by ancient Egypt and also some more illustrations like battles and other events. 

The classes are in a separate python file not created in the script of the visual novel. Can I participate or do I not qualify?

We already have an artist on the team but we have a big number of characters (17 characters in the story). so, we can use more so you can divide the characters between you. 

I submitted this unfinished game in the hope of finding an artist to help us with the characters and backgrounds and to finish the other episodes. 

This logo is awesome!

works for me what is your email?

Naughty Ancients present (From its Deadliest Enemies of Rome series (Ptolemy, Mithridates and Hannibal))

Savior of the Fallen Dynasty

All the assets (character designs, backgrounds, etc.) are place holders. When we get an artist on the team, there will be better concepts and animations. 

I did the writing and the programming. Still, they both want polishing. If anyone wants to step in. They are welcome. 

Not really, the video is my own doing. I used Ai to generate the images then tweaked them, but AI cannot do everything I want. So, I prefer a human artist with his/her/their own vision. They also can help me fix the screen and the Gui which is totally a mess.  I have a committed voice actress who really did a wonderful job rendering the character of Cleopatra and I will be adding that soon to the game. Some composers expressed interest but no commitment. One of them contacted me here expressing interest in the project then when I contacted him on discord, he said it is not for him. So unfortunately, I am on my own. I did the writing and the programming. 

Please take a look. If it is your cup of tea or coffee or milk and my idea rhymes with your melodies. Please let me know.

This will depend on the result. I mean I am looking for a team that will share the game with me. If the game is good enough to be marketable, the profit will be shared by the team, if the result is disappointing, we all go unpaid. The direction of the game will be determined by the whole team. I like your art style and to say the truth. It fits the brief. In a way, you share that fascination with adding a modern touch to ancient and fantastic locations. I particularly loved your great monolith, your golden hall, and the lake where we were born. No matter what your decision will be. I am happy I could see those beautiful artworks.

The Savior of the Fallen Dynasty

Hello everyone, 

I am looking a team for this visual novel project. I have little knowledge of Renpy and I am no artist. I used AI to generate the images so I also need assets and if someone has better knowledge of the software we can work together on the dialogues.   

Overview:

The last Pharaonic dynasty is in tatters. Cleopatra and her Roman allies might have killed Ptolemy, but I Arsinoe will not let this dynasty fall. With the ritual of blood, I gave my bloodline a new life and gave you a new body. Three men were sacrificed, a treacherous Greek soldier who turned on his Pharaoh, a captive roman legionary who fought bravely before he dropped unconscious and a commoner thief who eluded the city guards for a year. I wonder who is inside brother’s body. No, no, no! Don’t tell me! I don’t want to know.  Whoever you were before, now you are Ptolemy, pharaoh of this land of magic and dark secrets. If you were Roman, you will never see Rome again. If you were the traitor, you are the Pharaoh now. You cannot betray yourself. Or maybe you are the filthy thief. What an irony it would be. I don’t see a big difference though. My plan worked. Thanks to my trick, the people have risen in rebellion and the Romans have withdrawn to their citadel. Cleopatra is nowhere to be found, but the city is ours and so is the crown. Of course, we need to find her and kill her. But this can wait … let’s enjoy our victory. Yes, the face in the mirror is now yours. This mask is for life, I am afraid … but don’t worry. your life is safe as long as our plan is hidden. You will do as I say and all will be well. I will leave you to rest. I need you at your best in court. You will make me your new wife and Queen … but that too can wait. Rest now.

The World of the game:

Setting: solar punk ancient Alexandria in the Ptolemaic period. The city has a port with a and a formidable lighthouse operating with magical stone that guides ships into the port and out of it. It also protects them from demons and sea monsters and warns the city about invaders. The city also has the greatest library in the world full of ancient secrets and magical scrolls. The land outside is also full of magic and secrets. The city also has a Roman ironclad sea megaship. This megaship has a squad of roman special forces from legion XIII armed to the teeth. It is a threatening presence with which Rome flexes her muscles to frighten the Egyptians.

   

Factions:

Roman Legion XIII: While the legions of Rome strike terror in the hearts of all the nations of the ancient world, Legion XIII is a token force composed mostly of barbarian auxiliaries from Gaul and North Africa. There are some roman veterans who command the legion. They all answer to Lucia Antonina. They lack the numbers to invade the city but they can play a major role in the power struggles of the dynasty and its internal enemies. They are not in favor of a stable dynasty. Still, they cannot risk the grain supplies to Rome.

The guards wear amulets of their masters. A perceptive Pharaoh can locate and purge the corruption in their ranks. Because upkeeping them is costly, there are only few of them. The rest of the Egyptian army is made up of peasant recruits and foreign mercenaries.

Akuna is a mysterious agent of the great cult of Amon. She is lethal and unswerving in her devotion to the old gods of Egypt.

Lucia Antonina is the representative of the Roman Senate in Alexandria. Take everything she says with a grain of salt. Grain matters to her more than salt.   

 

Julia Sabina daughter of Lucia and Balbinus Crassus Obba. She is not interested in politics, but has an eye for profit. Can go behind her parents’ backs if the price is good enough.

 

 

Zulikha is from the wonderful city of Antioch. Well, you cannot trust anyone from the court of Antiochus, can you?

Senator Villus Altus Arabius is a man of few words. He likes luxury and knows how to afford it. He is in charge of the grain.

 

 

 

Antiochus the younger, the rightful king of Syria, is a refugee in the pharaoh’s court.

 

 

 

Siphoniba Granddaughter of the famous Hannibal Barca. She is a mercenary in the Hawk band. She is no friend of the Romans or their friends.

 

 

 

Chancellor Clion is the pharaoh’s chief minister. He is handsome, but too Greek and corrupt.

  

 

Pericles king of Tyr. He has done something too bad to piss off Antiochus. Welcoming him to Alexandria can be quite dangerous, but he has made himself at home already. He is with the assassins now and no one can find him unless he wants to be found.  

 

 

 

 

 

The cat priestess knows no scruples when it comes to serving her cult.

Dionyza is after one thing, Pericles.

 

 

Merekares has sold his soul to the devil, but he is a servant of Pharaoh. 

This is what I have done so far
