Synopsis:
In a small village surround by birch forest and endless stretches of snow two children are born on the 13th of January during a strong snow storm. One of the mothers died due to her weak constitution while the other's mind couldn't handle the pain deemed unfit to care for her child. These children brought into the world with sad circumstances turn out to be the hope the village needs, called children of god they were born with animal characteristics, a tiger and a crane. The story follows these two grown up and living with all the tasks and rules imposed on them by the villagers just for being born special. Playing from the view of the tiger, you unveil what the two of them feel, exactly how they're treated, and as well how their story comes to an end.
This visual novel is mainly a psychological thriller, with a introspection on the relationship between two individuals forced into stressful conditions and how they react differently.
Im a new solo dev/artist, I don't have much under my belt in terms of finished games but I'm planning to make my first with the NaNORenO game jam, I am able to do the sprites(I've put some at the end), backgrounds and coding as well. I'm currently also writing the full script but it's not my best skill so I'm very open to changes and your opinion, if anyone is interested I'd love to get in contact. I've gotten to the intro only at the moment
I am also not well versed in how to make music but I'm looking for a sad sort of vibe, here are my inspirations:
- why do people pretend to be happy all the time? by starry cat (Main inspo)
- milk drunk by halou
- August 10 by Julie Doiron
- Xanax by Maria Taylor
- Dark Angel by lalleshwari
- go slowly by radio head
- motion picture soundtrack by radio head
- sky over Tokyo by RADWIMPS (maybe a little more toned down)
I have a pintrest board for the vibe that the game should be and background ideas, I'm able to do them but I'm not the most adept in it so ill be happy if anyone wants to work with me on them.
contact :
my contact is discord which is tortcake
here are sprites I've created already of the main characters:
(edit: the top 2 are what the extras look like I will probably change the main characters to fit the look more)
