Of Valkyries and Life Released

So, this is my second time releasing a VN, it feels like a big achievement, even if this was supposed to be only a side project. To be honest, I originally started this one as a NanoReno project, meaning it was supposed to be completed during March, but, well... Uh, stuff happened and...

Nevertheless, it's ready for download at http://www.indiedb.com/games/of-valkyries-and-life (free, donations appreciated)

Looking at my files, the final word count was just a little above 10 000, the story count is 3 and the number of total endings 5. I love both the music and art I was provided for this game, but I do regret not making something bigger out of this...

Oh well, comments and questions on the project or future ones are welcome too.

posts need titles, right?

Time to update this thing... I've been working on a new project, aptly named 'Of Valkyries and Life' which is a tri-arc compilation of stories, all somehow connected to winged girls. These girls are indeed humans, yet carry wings on their back, leading to all sorts of situations. The idea is to deal with responsibilities, expectations and one's own life's worth. I'm not wizened enough to write such stuff, but hopefully it's still  enjoyable to read. In terms of genres, I guess it's a combination romance, slice-of-life and fantasy.

The artwork was provided by a friend of mine @ http://xxlei-chanxx.deviantart.com/ or alternatively http://sketchy-ness.tumblr.com/ while the in-game music was produced by Marc Tabula @ http://starryai.mctabula.com/marc/ and Trass84 @ https://soundcloud.com/trass84

This VN will be released on http://www.indiedb.com/ and on Desura later on, more info there and then.
