I am well aware that the scope of SoS is massive. Having this many ROs is not something I would ever recommend to anyone looking to make a game.
That said, the ROs were established from the start as principle characters. Alice and Iain, as options for your Gabriel’s partner, will get a lot of screen time. Other characters may feel less integral because it will take effort from Gabriel to get to know them–and you will not be able to get to know all characters well on a single run. Not all characters are introduced at the same time in the story. Whether or not they feel satisfying I leave for the players to judge when the game is finished.
And while I appreciate your comment and where you’re coming from, I write SoS first and foremost for myself. I do want others to enjoy playing it, and I do want to finish the game sooner rather than later. SoS is not my job. As aware as I am of best practices for making games, this is how I’ve chosen to proceed with SoS.

No. Charleston does not want kids and within the scope of the story none of the ROs will have kids with you. It’s also taboo for angels to have non-angel children–angel children involves splitting your Grace and the child is given to Heaven with no knowledge of their parent(s)–though the shell technically introduces a bit of a grey area.
Hello,
Has this work been abandoned? I’ve been searching for “recent updates”, and they all seem to date 2019-2018.
Any news would be appreciated…
Thanks!
(& Have a good day)
Sorry to interrupt…But I just wonder that if there is a way I can explore more of this game? Currently all I know about is the demo’s content which is in the first post… … But I find it in the posts that somehow there are more that has been out?
Oh, I followed the link given in the first post and found things like Q&A and some introductions about the story. But I want to know that if there are more development, like, in the demo?Thank you.(Sorry if the expression seems strange…)
@RiverReed lol unless it’s updated when I wasn’t looking then some of the things mentioned in the first post I haven’t seen yet. But ether way it’s a great game and I look forward to seeing more of it. But yeah the tumbler and discord and other links provided is good way to learn more and interact with people who have interest in it and someone among them likely knows more. Defintly more then me about the game and it’s world lol hope that helps and this finds you and everyone else doing well.
Just gonna put this here. I’m sure the author would let us know when there’s progress being made or not. As for interacting with the author on Tumblr / Discord, I would advise you to not ask them about the progress of their story because chances are this is their hobby project and they have IRL obligations.
With huge passion projects I feel that the average is 5+ and even 10+, and it could be even longer.It’s a side project. You also have real life plus the sheer enormity of the project.
It’s been a hot minute, time to see how one of my preferred WIPs have faired. Gotta say it’s been a minute since I visited this WIP and I gotta say I’ve loved it when I first read it and I still love it. I’m glad the author is still working on this project and I hope they are enjoying making as much if not more then me loving this little demo!
i just completed the demo and i gotta say i actually find it very very intresting the characters are all very unique and very much how i would assume they would be Michael is michael the brooding boy scout who follows the law to the letter good or bad he’s you’re a-hole paladin archetype lawful good doesn’t mean lawful nice
Always make my way back to this. Enjoyable every playthrough and I somehow feel there is something new every time. I’ve a few questions though. Is it said anywhere on why we couldn’t have a spear or one like it? And, do we get to have our own scent like the other higher up angels?
As @squarelyblue mentioned, Grace scents are based on traits. You’ll be able to make a choice according to which traits are at the required level.
As for the spear, spears are considered the basic weapon of angels. Throwing your Angel Blade is bad form, especially as younger angels have to physically retrieve theirs and would be vulnerable while doing so. That means part of the advantage of a spear is being disregarded; angels utilize it as a polearm without ranged potential (and that’s what Grace is generally for). Angels with advanced ranks or powers are expected to customize their blade to best match their fighting styles. There are already eight base weapon types in game. Each weapon type has variations depending on factors from wing color to how you prefer to utilize your Grace. Different forms of Angel Blades may be unlocked later in the game, but their will be no more weapons added. The scope of this game is massive, and adding more options like additional base weapons, ultimately, make the game better. Please feel free to imagine whatever weapon you want for your Gab, but options will be restricted in the game itself.
But yeah the tumbler and discord and other links provided is good way to learn more and interact with people who have interest in it and someone among them likely knows more. Defintly more then me about the game and it’s world lol hope that helps and this finds you and everyone else doing well.
