#luctine

Yes, you are reading that correctly, I return after being quiet for a while to bring a visual novel that you can play!

The game itself is short and was created as part of a portfolio project class for my creative writing degree, speaking of which...

I will graduate this Friday!

As a result, I'm excited to announce that you'll be getting more consistent Luctine content as I'll be able to focus on my larger projects without having to balance schoolwork alongside my job. I'm excited to take more time to work with Ren'Py to make an even better project in the future.

Download Exile's Fall

You can find Exile's Fall on my itch.io page! The game is free and is available for both PC and Mac.

Bonus Content

Another related project to Exile's Fall was a short multimedia project that was meant to promote the game. Here you'll find some content that takes place before the game occurs and can be seen as prequel content if you wish. This was mainly done as a conceptual project, as at the time, I wasn't entirely sure the project would have reached completion. Check out the content of that on its own blog.

Made different looks for each of the characters in this project as well.

I should have some character art from this to show off later this week. Just want to have them all done before showing them off.

Note: This is not for What Makes a Seeker; this is a different, smaller project.

"Arcanist, Savior, Ruler,... Immortal. Until all life breathes its last, our loyalty lies with her. Our Queen of Embers..."

"In the hidden corners of The Ardor Isles, you will hear the whispers telling of The Mirsola, the lady of moonlight and ice, who holds the past in her hands and will one day lead the arcanists from their shadows."

Playing more with photo mode again, figured out some stuff for somewhat ghosty-looking pictures. So, of course, I had to do some of my OC looks with them. Specifically Amelia, The Archivist, and Ellis.

Name: Lydia Norris Codename: Sothe Arcanist Classification: Mirror Rank: Silver Initiate Spiritseeker Raven: See Notes Projected Role: Retrieval of Deceased Important Notes: Initiate Sothe has shown to be deeply dedicated to her studies. However, she’s shown abnormally low aptitude regarding her abilities as a mirror arcanist. Something has prevented her from bonding with a spiritseeker…

Started to work on seeing how I'd want to do other character art for this. Starting with one of the first characters you meet, Silver Silver Seeker A'tiri.

I had a lot of fun coming up with her design and I'm always excited to come up with more azari designs for my world.

Here's a little mock-up with one of Ellis' side pictures as well. I think it's all starting to have a cohesive look, now I just need to figure out a style for backgrounds and I'll feel a lot better about this whole process.

Figuring out some UI stuff, including how to give important characters a distinct text box.

Getting this to work made me so happy. Being able to write anything in that box and use different backgrounds for it is nice.

And a last little bonus, another Ellis side image, now as an initiate seeker.
