Welcome to the Blood of the Dragon Development thread.

||
Overview:
Blood of the Dragon is a fantasy inspired adult VN with progression and RPG elements. The game features a wide cast of various personalities.

Story:
You play as your own self-named MC or Ryder by default. Growing up, you've dreamed of valiant knights or defend their home. However, your fantasy is short-lived when raiders attack your home. During the onslaught, you're left wounded, but still alive thanks to abilities unlocked in a moment of courage. After rumor spreads of your accomplishments, you're approached by beautiful allies who believe you to be Drakvir, a descendent from the Dragon Gods of old. With your allies and family in-tow, you embark on a journey to discover the true potential that lies within your blood. But as word of your accomplishments spread, dire eyes point in your direction.

Gameplay:
Blood of the Dragon is a story driven adult visual novel with a focus on player choice. These choices allow you to shape the characterisation of Ryder, pick and choose your harem, and decide the fate of Threcia. However, Ryder is a hero and the story will focus on his accomplishments in such a manner. We will also be incorporating a turn-based combat system with RPG-lite elements. Ryder will have a sense of progression, growing in power after each combat. He will also unlock new abilities once trained throughout the story. However, the growth will be fixed to show Ryder's progress as the Drakvir while also providing fun and challenging combat.

With the help of The Masked Man, we've made some great progress on our combat system. Throughout the game, Ryder will level up in skills and gain new abilities. We are limiting the system in scope, so there will be no point allocation, but he will level up based on the number of combat encounters. This gives the impression of growing in power while giving us a better way of keeping things balanced.

We have a lot to change with balance, cooldowns, etc. But this should give you all a general idea of what's to come.

All the sprites, audio, sfx, etc is place holder for the final game.

Yup, no sandbox. There will be points where you can choose what order to do things, but it's relatively straightforward at specific points in time. The fighting is the same way, they are integrated into the story. We wanted to add an additional gameplay layer but not make it a full RPG. It's more RPG-lite. There is progression, growth in power, obtaining new skills, etc. But no big grind or anything like that. With that, plus the awesome narrative, we think we're going to have a game that people are going to love.
 
  • Yay, new update!

All the renders looked pretty good but the last one definitely stands out of them.
In many games when you see someone grabing ass, the ass's shape doesn't change at all or it does in a weird way.
Here it looks decent at least.
Glad someone took that into account cause idk for everyone but it makes a difference for me.

What engine do you plan to use?
Cause imo anything different than Ren'py will backfire on you for the type of game you're going for.
