More Detailed Synopsis

You’re taken to a mysterious room and greeted by two strangers. They tell you that your life is no longer, but you aren’t necessarily dead. You cross through a door on the other side of the room and enter a world similar to your own. Except, there’s the existence of demons, Devils, and other supernatural entities. Not only that, you’re trapped in the body of the Chosen One, the hero who will save humanity. The issue is there’s no time for training or preparing, the final battle is in five days!

Fight against Caph and the four Enforcers. One Enforcer for each day which will test the potential of your main character. Meet new/‘old’ teammates that will aid you in the final battle. Maybe even find some love with them? Survive to the best of your abilities in this new world. Good luck out there, Remnant Twenty-One.

Maybe this is still just the char gen phase, but the abundance of illusion-of-choice choices is rather odd. There are a lot of choices that don’t actually do anything at all, and even more bizarrely, mandatory choice sets for which every choice does exactly the same thing. The latter half does have actual choices that increase various skills – but they’re also not really choices, because there are no skill tests. At least not so far, but it’s early on.

Ohh I seeeee. Most likely, I’m going to implement later on certain stats, such as (Optimist vs. Pessimist) or (Sarcastic vs. Serious) so these choices will fluctuate that! :^D

Did a quick playthrough it’s got some work to be done but your story has potential so I shall be keeping a eye on your progress. :smiley:

Thank you! I really appreciate you taking the time to read it! I’ll do my best :smile:

I’ll need more to properly judge, but the choices don’t really feel like choices. Hopefully that’s temporary

Just wanna say I really enjoyed this, I hope you end up going full ‘Mc’ with Humanity’s last hope. Love the idea of a regular guy having to act as the main character eg: soloing enemies, killing bosses all the while he wants to piss himself in fear.

Also, loved that ‘Go see my dog in heaven. Wait’ joke that’s some good shit my dude

Are you supposed to meet the tall blonde man no matter which corridor you decide to go down? Because right now choosing between left or right makes no difference.

Hello Everyone,
The current plan is to release Chapters 2 and 3 this month. However, chapter 3 will only cover half of Tuesday in the story, so I was wondering if I should hold off and finish chapter 4 before updating the demo. Also, I would like to know if people would be interested in having RO options in the story.

3 Likes

I would say if chapter four finishes where you left off in chapter three then save those two updates for one update in of themselves and go-ahead put out chapter two before hand. As to the ro option question lol I’m pretty sure for a lot of people they would like having options most of the time. :smiley:
