Damn, I thought I fixed it. That’s really weird.
It was pretty close to the end though.
I really like this game can’t wait to see even more.
This is really interesting, the characters remind me of a bit from the Harry Potter series. Also would we be able to go rouge from the empire, and do our own thing away from them
Oh yess! this is really interesting! Im keeping my eyes on this! Starred!
It sounds like people want more. I’ll keep working on it.
Probably will be a long time in writing though.
@Crotale The game sounds really fun and it also has a nice concept.
Will you be updating this version thought?
Not for a while. That mysterious bug is irritating me and there’s lots of work to do on it. I only want to show the next part when it’s quality.
the demo is good so far
I like both of your characters Tess and Nathan/Natalia so far, I’m interested in seeing how they grow with the story. I’m leaning more towards the Nathan/Natalia one at this point but there was more on them than the Tess character. It is an interesting story so far, and I can’t wait to see more of it. I hope you figure out that error without it making rewrite a bunch of code. Good luck!
I also rather enjoy this game, but one question how old is are character? Is the Magic corp rising in Army of teenager’s, Adult’s, High school? Where in time am in?
The Petrarch Empire Mage Corps accepts 17 year olds, sometimes 16 year olds, who:
- have magic
- are reasonably healthy and intelligent
- probably will not betray the Empire
They train for 3 years. The first year is just to introduce potential Mages to magic and physical training and discipline. There are no elective classes for first year. The second and third years include training in history, tactics, and specialist training (I.E, Combat Mage hopefuls start doing mock battles, Healers-to-be learn biochemistry and medicine).
After training, Mages serve for 4-6 years. However, in the past the PEMC has rushed the current crop of Mage potentials out of training and into battle when a sudden war broke out. Even a one-third-trained 18 year old Mage is worth half a dozen regular soldiers.
As to what time you are in, well, it’s the year 4302 A.L. Who knows when it is in A.D. You might find it more descriptive if I told you that the Petrarch Empire’s technology level is roughly 1800s-ish. They have trains, and roads, printing press, and a facsimile of the telegraph, but most of the really good stuff is supported by magic, not physics.

I really enjoyed the demo
I enjoyed the playable part, my impression so far is good.
Your writing style is all right, so far, but I think you need to improve your choice script skills, the crc bug is still not corrected after days.
Tess and N both have just one scene so far, therefore I can’t say realy much about them, but what I’ve seen of them looks promising. I’ve gor the impression that Tess is based on one of my proposals, is that true? And since N is always the opposite gender of the MC, s/he will be a romance option for straight MCs, right?
the information on the technology level should be mentikned in a world description page in the stats, and I think the age of the MC and the year should be mentioned in game.
What about having an exercise in each of the lesson when the MC could improve the caster stats?
I found a possible fix for the bug, but I am currently not actually working on this game. It’s finals season. Try again in two weeks 
Oy! Grey happens to be my favorite color! >:|

Great demo I love the stats can’t wait to see how the romance options develop

I’ve posted a new version on 1/4/15. No major new scenes, but several scenes have been reworked and I added the first part of my ‘backstory’ feature. If anyone cares to take a look, I’d love to hear your opinions on my work so far!
