Four New Announcements
My name is Ternox, and I’m an indie developer. Recently, I’ve also become an indie publisher of small games — mostly visual novels — as I run the Ukrainian Visual Novel Jam and look for interesting projects that could use some help with promotion. https://clan.akamai.steamstatic.com/images/25363761/88a36b136b3516cbf8ce55cf6edc23fcdccd6fbb.jpg Together with other developers, we’ve prepared four game announcements you can already add to your wishlist. Valkyrie Iteration: Mecha Pilot Raising Pocket Simulator Developer: TERNOX Art: Lumeish https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E6PSbDWXbXM Valkyrie Iteration is a mini raising sim where you train Lana to battle mysterious phantoms — beings from another dimension tearing apart the fabric of reality. To face this threat, humanity created Valkyries — giant combat mechs with souls of their own. These living machines have instincts and personalities, accepting only pilots capable of forming a deep emotional bond with them. Plan Lana’s days, choose which stats to train, and hope she can make it to the finale without defeat. https://store.steampowered.com/app/3466240 Manic Pixie Dreamgirls Developer: Kajan Collaboration https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QNpjwkGZYVU A team of friends is creating a nostalgic visual novel inspired by early 2000s anime. Manic Pixie Dream Girls tells the story of half-fae students who enter their classmates’ dreams, influence their subconscious, and battle nightmares. The style blends influences from Persona, Madoka Magica, and Tumblr-era aesthetics. Key moments present three choices, one of which always leads to a bad ending. Several artists and writers work on the project with the goal of recreating the vibe of eerie, old-school anime. The visual novel was one of the winners of Ukrainian Visual Novel Jam #5 and is now being prepared for full release on Steam. You can already support the developers by adding it to your wishlist. https://store.steampowered.com/app/3828970 Born for the Light ~Wavelength Radia...Read full article on Community Announcements (TERNOX)
