After my editing work for the visual novel Anime Studio Simulator with Visualnoveler, I moved on to become the head writer of a new fantasy visual novel project, Ascendant Hearts.
Ascendant Hearts is a romantic comedy about a young man named Hayato who wakes up in a world that follows JRPG and MMORPG rules. Part romance, part RPG parody, part adventure, it follows Hayato as he bonds with three party members and tries to get to the bottom of the mysterious monster attacks endangering the town.
It has a lighthearted, often silly tone and doesn’t take itself too seriously, but I hope the story and characters will hold your interest as well.
Unlike Anime Studio Simulator, which was a hybrid, this one is a full visual novel. You’ll also make choices that influence your relationship with the other characters and put you on the path to one of four endings.
It has some ecchi content, but if you’re not into that, don’t worry, it shouldn’t be enough to dissuade you.
Ascendant Hearts is now on Kickstarter. You can also support it by voting for it on Steam Greenlight.
Not sure yet? We’ve made a short demo, which you can download here.
Since I’m the writer of Ascendant Hearts, ask me any questions you have about the project, especially if it’s about the story or characters. And if you enjoy romantic comedy visual novels and RPG parodies, please support us on Kickstarter!
