Your Story is a Visual Novel that takes place in a fantasy world. You will become a guide to a young half-elvish girl named Lia, who is a somewhat lost girl with an unclear future. She spends her entire life helping her parents run one of the most popular taverns in the kingdom. She will need your help to move her life forward. Your decisions will guide its narrative in various possible ways. The most crucial elements of the storyline are your own emotions - we want to bring forth even the most extreme and controversial ones. You'll experience a mix of joy, sadness, love, regret, and even terror. You will lead the plot to both the brightest and the darkest corners of your own mind by making decisions in accordance with your own conscience.​

Steam Release Unknown Demo v1.0 Demo v0.1 What can you expect? First of all, as we said before: our main goal was to create a better version of the game, and we changed a lot - staying, of course, close to our core idea. You can expect new graphics, more detailed characters, new backgrounds, and dedicated art. We also write everything from scratch to make it "sound" better, along with a whole new game code. In this demo, we are showing you the beginning of the game in which you can get acquainted with most of the characters and check some basic mechanics. Let us know what you think on our Discord server HERE . What is the status of the work? Writing [97%] - in this area, we are almost done. The main story is ready, and we're polishing the alternate endings. Translating [10%] - to be honest, we've translated only text for the demo, and we're waiting for a fully finished script. Art [70%] - we did almost everything we needed to fulfill the base needs, like characters, backgrounds, items, etc. From now on, we'll be creating as many dedicated arts and story comics as possible to make the game as visually compelling and dynamic as it gets. Programming [20%] - base code is ready, so from now it's a "simple" path forward with coding the scenes that are already written as a script. We believe we can do it soon with new team members helping in this area. Of course, remember that this percentage is more or less accurate. With this, we can assure you that we'll deliver the game this year, but we need a little more time to tell precisely which day it will be. Demo 4 improvements to texts and dialogues throughout the demo, improvements to characters facial expressions (emotions should be more clear now), new sounds at selected moments, the journal, which you may become familiar with in this demo, the initial introduction to three characters: Aina, Henrietta and Levius, the Tavern’s corridor background has received its final look, the final versions of two additional guest rooms in the Tavern, the Secret Garden’s background has received its final look, we’ve introduced a mouse pointer! 2020-08-14 -Demo version.

Your Story is one of the few games with self-made art and that's what drew me to it. The character art is well done, small changes in facial expressions are noticeable, as with many VNs that are traditionally drawn I would sometimes wish for more renders to describe individual situations. When there is a text description of person A acting in a certain way towards person B, please show a visual representation of it. I know... it's a lot of additional work. Some scenes are only depicted in a sketch-like manner, and it is not always clear to me what this change in portrayal is based on. At first I thought it was to represent motion with more renders to give it a sense of urgency, renders also auto-progress in those situations, which surprised me initially. But if you want to use that as a stylistic element, you would actually have to use more smaller renders so that it appears more fluid overall. In the implementation, it is rather text-heavy. The story itself starts slowly. In the demo I played, it barely gets going. If there is a big adventure that is at the centre of the plot, then that is still ahead of us. Instead, you experience a kind of everyday life that is interrupted by interesting, but so far rather superficial acquaintances - with one exception, which I don't want to spoil here. Your Story has the potential to be an epic story, but for that to happen, the story would have to pick up speed now. The chess pieces seem to be in place and the foreshadowing is apparent, but I'm beginning to long for a real arc of suspense. Ps.: At the moment there is no sexual content worth mentioning, but I don't think that is the main focus here anyway.
