These features were planned for the "Yaoi Game Jam". Unfortunately, due to time constraints, we couldn't implement many of them. Therefore, for now, we have a prototype where you can already explore a small part of the Nexus and combat the lost souls. A dialogue system has also been integrated. However, we don't have a captivating story to present yet. Accordingly, no intermediate sequences in the form of illustrations have been included yet. Nonetheless, we intend to continue working on this project and strive to implement all the features as we had planned in the concept.
So Stay tuned for version 2.0!!!!

Please remove the Otome tag, because this game isn't Otome at all; it's Yaoi/BL. Learn the difference and educate yourself.
honestly the characters are really well made! can't wait for the full version
Very beautiful characters! I'm waiting for the full version ;)
thank you so much for your Kind words. It means a lot for us :3 Really, thank you
This is not an otome. remove the tag
Not yet because it‘s a prototype. We want to Make a Otome Game with Combat Elements :)
But it's for the YAOI jam , right? So how is it otome? Otome implies a female protagonist dating male love interests. Unless there is some YAOI happening with two other characters.
this is from Wikipedia: The genre has many style elements in common with shōjo manga and josei manga,<a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otome_game#cite_note-Kim-1" ]<1]<="" a=""></a><a href="https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Otome_game#cite_note-Kim-1" ]<1]<="" a=""> and plotwise they are often similar to </a>harem manga. There are also games targeted towards women that are focused on romance between men, called boys' love games (ボーイズラブゲーム, bōizu rabu gēmu), and sometimes there are yaoi(boys' love) elements in otome games, but the two genres are usually kept separate.
YES it usually Kept separate but it can be Elements in Otome Games :) because I Played some yaoi otome Games aswell
this is untrue.
'yaoi otomes' do not exist. There can be games with elements of BOTH yaoi and otome (example- Our Life, a game where you can play as male or female) but unless you intend to add an option to play as a female character, which is the core of the otome genre, you cannot describe your game as an otome. it is a BL game, a yaoi game, or a romance visual novel. please stop redefining the term otome, there is no shame in calling your game a yaoi game, as that is what it is- please remove the otome tag.
PS: very top of the wikipedia article of otomes: An otome game (Japanese: 乙女ゲーム, Hepburn: otome gēmu, lit. "maiden game"), is a story-based video game that is targeted towards women. Generally one of the goals, besides the main idea/goal, is to develop a romantic relationship between the female main player character and one of the usually male, secondary lead characters.
(please note the phrase 'female main player character.')
i noticed many times what fujis adding otome tag with their bl games in steam or here, keep pushing dumb idea what game, targetin female players=otome)) ofc its not true. so annoying. Never seen actual otome game with yaoi tag-).
Are you gonna add female mc? If not it will never be an otome.

Uh... is this going to be a hentai game? Judging from the, uh... game cover.
It would be a Yaoi Game, Not a shounen Ai Game but We didn‘t put the cutscenes (illustration) in the prototype. :)
I said hentai, not AI.
It‘s Not Hentai. It‘s Yaoi. :)
Ok, but the cover image is STILL really suggestive. Downright softcore porn.
