    Game Synopsis:

    Spoiler
    After being demoted from a position of rank by his boss, Cedrick, a demon wolf with an ego the size of a small planet, and an attitude which rubs most creatures the wrong way, finds himself stumbling into a series of events which threaten to destroy both Hell and the rest of the universe. However, Cedrick...doesn't seem bothered by this. Nor does he seem even remotely interested in his part in the entirety of the grand plan being drawn out around him. 

    When the entire stage known as reality is hinging on the actions of a lone demon even God is getting nervous about the coming days.


    Features:



    Hidden Items: Find various hidden items within numerous objects within the game. Be very careful to check over broken vases, pots, urns, and the likes for items which can be used in both battle and in crafting. Also, be sure to check out the bookshelves you come across. Many of them have bits and pieces of lore within the game which players will need to go over in order to understand many of the happenings within the game. 

    Weapon/Armor Crafting: Find numerous items from both enemies and treasure chests and then take them to be forged into awesome weapons and armor not found anywhere else within the game!

    Fighting Arena: Battle through five different ranks to win prizes such as materials for crafting weapons and armor, bracelets which can be used to buffer stats, and tomes/scrolls needed to create powerful weaponry and much, much more!

    Bestiary: Newly implemented into the game a bestiary highlighting the demons within the game!

    Creating a Home: Gain the ability to purchase a home, or be rewarded one, and with this give Cedrick and the team will be able to build lives for themselves within Hell. By participating in their lives Cedrick will learn things about his pack which he never knew and be able to affect important character's choices they make.

    Casino: Play games and win rare prizes not found anywhere else within the underworld. Fight against monsters that yield very high money(jinzhi) as prizes and hunt for items which can be sold or given away to various NPCs for very useful items in turn!

    Characters:

    Spoiler
    Major Characters: 

    Cedrick:  gallery_122410_942_8466.png

    A demonic wolf whose been living in Hell so long he's become the epitome of everything mortals fear: he's cruel, sadistic, heartless, and a murderer without restraint...or is he?

    Cheeko: gallery_122410_942_11786.png

    A female lioness who died in a war and was 'rescued' by Cedrick from being taken to the demon's boss. Why he saved her...even Cedrick isn't sure but there seems to be a connection between the two of them.

    Lykos: gallery_122410_942_1431.png

    hell hound who has 'transcended' into become a bipedal demonic hound. Not all that bright, he seems to view Cedrick as a rival...despite the fact that the other has pounded him into the ground time and again.

    Hu'gho: gallery_122410_942_43818.png

    A noble soul who became lost in Hell after dying a tragic death at the hands of a friend. He and Cedrick will either become good friends...or end up killing one another before long. Only time will tell.

    Marek:  gallery_122410_942_25729.png

    An angelic warrior who came to the underworld on a journey to recover a power that can help save or destroy the universe. Fate seems to have greater things in store for him when he crosses Cedrick's path.

    Servous: gallery_122410_942_13638.png

    Servant of the god Hades and loyal retainer to the goddess  Persephone, Servous soon will find herself entrenched into Cedrick's destiny whether she likes it or not. 

    Minor Characters:

    Heylel: gallery_122410_942_36917.png

    A devil who petitions for Cedrick's help because of a coup occurring between the seven princes of Hell and their subordinates. There's something odd about her.

    Omni: A cyclopic demon who rules the region of Hell which Cedrick calls home. Having put up with his subordinate's antics and disobedience once too often Omni kicks Cedrick out of his court leaving the other somewhat powerless...for the moment.


    Setting:

    Spoiler
    The story of Fallen predominately takes place within the nine realms of the underworld, of them includes the Lands of Tartarus, the home of the newly dead, and Elysium, home of the heroic souls. Cedrick will navigate through all of these realms at one time or another during his journey, many times against his wishes.

    The world itself will feature the classical description from Dante's Inferno, however, many names, places and character have been taken from greater mythology, so expected the odd god or hero to pop in from time to time to either help or hinder Cedrick's path. Also, settings within the game will take on themes from other periods in time such as modern, medieval, Gothic, and so on.



    Various Realms:

    Spoiler
    Musepelheim:

    Land of fire and brimstone for which demons of intermediate ranks dwell. Cedrick has called the lower region home for several centuries now, but that will all change with the introduction of a certain feline in his life. This land is home to many power deities, of which include Fafnir the dragon, Omni the Cyclops, Surt the fire giant, and the great prince himself Satan.

    Gehenna: 

    Land of sand and death for which demons and human souls of low rank dwell. It is here for which Cedrick will encounter the great prince Belphegor and the truth about his place and purpose within the grand scheme of things. Cedrick will also encounter several souls who will have MAJOR impact the path of his destiny, some of whom will either be his closets companions...or worse enemies.

    TARTARUS:

    Land of the newly dead which is cast within eternal gloom and darkness. The gods Hades and Persephone rule this bleak realm, along with several powerful spirits who keep in check the souls of those whom have died. However, events have taken place here which have caused an imbalance to both the mortals who dwell here, as well as the demons who are the servants of the gods. Also, there is something...strange happening within the earth that is causing alarm in all. Ancient forces are awakening and which will, consequently, draw Cedrick into itself.

    Sodom:

    Land of the demons of seduction and desire. Ruled by the fair but devious minded prince Asmodeus, the fertile realm is feeling the aftereffects of the change within reality like a subtle earthquake. With the mother of all demons, Lilith, behaving oddly, and unknown entities which drain the life from all they touch popping up like weeds all across the land Sodom is in definite need of a hero. ...why the get Cedrick, not even GOD knows.

    Right now this game is in its early stages of development so more content will be added to this page as time goes by.

    Also, if I've missed crediting anyone, please, do let me know.

    Thanks to everyone who has played this far!

  2. The demo has been updated and now contains much more content!
  3. Game Updated:

    The following changes have been made:

    Cedrick's Devastation skill TP cost has been lowered from 25 to 15.

    The bug with the bridge in Muspelheim has been corrected. You won't be able to go there until after the event at Cedrick's Hovel.

    Markus' special commands now has a name and command icon to go with them!

    A certain general sprite/face graphic had been changed to pitch black instead of the traditional colors.

    A bug with the game at the third world map area has been fixed. I doubt most people have gotten here yet, so it won't matter much.

    The fighting area in the third world map area has been corrected of its issues. 

    You can now progress the game up to the fourth area and the first event therein.

    Servous, a character you get later on, skills have been buffed.

    (If there are anymore bugs let me know, please and thank you!) 
  4. Tried out the game a little, some random thoughts while playing through:

    Spoiler
    -Guardian is a weird ability for a cruel, sadistic, heartless, and a murderer without restraint wolf.

    -Cheer on, Cheeko!

    -What's the difference between a hell hound and a demonic wolf?

    -Nice use of wolf/dog language and analogy

    -Omni betrayed Cedric before he let Cheeko go, or did I miss something...?

    -To save the pup... or not... arr decisions

    -Didn't save the pup, but no reward or consequence. Not sure if saving has a reward, but then not saving would be a funny option i.e. forces Cedric to be a good guy

    -"I'm going to need at bloodstone kabuto"...?

    -On 'Life in Hell': So what happens if one is killed and eaten in hell? Does he go to... hellception? (Just got a story plot idea :D )

    -Kind of cool and weird at the same time that Cedric is both cruel yet a softie

    -Pwned by the fire enemy thing, died after 2 fires in a row, couldn't even heal
    And I pretty much stopped there, I'm definitely interested in the story, but I think the battles needs a bit of balancing.

    [/Spoiler]



    1. Look up Cedrick's Class title Daemon. Guardian will make sense once you do. XD

    2. She can't fight, but everybody wants a cheerleader in their corner! Plus there's a specific reason why her cheering empowers him. 

    3. Hell hounds are beast that are born in hell from two other hell hounds. Demon wolves are souls who fell into hell and became twisted by decades of living in the underworld.

    4. Cedrick has a history of not doing what Omni tells him, mostly because Cedrick doesn't like him. The two have had friction in the past, one incidence being that Omni had Cedrick tortured for not doing something he told Cedrick to do. 

    5/6/7. Saving Markus gives you Markus as a party member. Not saving him should not give him to you. (Will have to check that to see if I did the event right. (I.e. Its Canon for Markus to be with Cedrick, but as a challenge players can choose not to take him along. The game will have different scenes if you do/don't.))

    8. Whoops. Not supposed to see that yet.

    9. Any soul who dies in hell decomposes and becomes a part of Hell, but a soul that is eaten becomes fuel for another demon. This will become more prominent as the game moves along.

    10. Cedrick is the jerk you can't help but love! ;)

    11. Tweaking game encounters as we speak!

    If there's anything else, please, do let me know!
  6. Game Updated:

    The following changes have been made:

    Several items have been given different restorative properties: 

    Fallen Warrior's Blood now revives a fallen ally with 250 HP.

    B. Meds restores 350 HP instead of 300.

    Demon Flesh restores 900 HP instead of 666.

    Tonic of Malice restores 2000 HP instead of 1666.

    Devils Draft restores 5000 HP instead of 100%.

    Black Essence restore 100 MP.

    Aquatic Blood protects against water/ice damage for 5 turns.

    Beast's Blood protects against fire damage for 5 turns.

    Avian's Blood protects against wind damage for 5 turns.

    Mortal Essence protects against earth damage for 5 turns.

    Demon's Blood protects against dark damage for 5 turns.

    Dragon's Blood protects against all elemental damage for 5 turns.

    Cedrick's Abilities have been buffed:

    Incubus Touch now lowers MAT as well as LUK.

    Soul Evocation now lowers ATK and MMP as well as has a chance to instantly kill an enemy.

    Devastation now lowers DEF and AGI.

    Ruination now cuts through more enemy HP and has lower TP cost. (17 instead of 20).

    Markus' Abilities have been buffed:

    Stone Glare now kills an enemy instead of stoning them.

    Pup Snap's TP cost has been lowered from 15 TP to 10.

    Most common enemies have been nerfed to be more balanced with the average play through of the game. Certain bosses and side dungeons have not been changed much, so they will present an overall challenge to the casual player. For those who want the most out of them wait until after conquering the fighting arena in the third overworld before testing your skills against these places.

    Side Dungeons: Lower Imp Cave - Level Suggestions +10 and 3 party members.

    Boss Level suggestions +13 (Cedrick may end up fighting this one alone)

    Side Dungeon: Fafnir's Volcano - Level Suggestions +25 and 3 party members.

    Boss Level suggestions +30 (The boss is completely optional and is advised not to be fought for a special bonus content later in the game.)

    Side Dungeon: Etna Cavern - Level Suggestions +25 and 3 party members.

    Boss Level suggestions +50 (The quest here is somewhat complicated and can only be accomplished by completing another quest line earlier on.)

    Optional Boss: Echidna/Hydra = Only fought in 3rd overworld if player chooses to fight them.

    Level suggestion  +30 and 3 party members. 

    Optional Boss - Argas = Only fought in 3rd overworld is chose not to fight Echidna/Hydra.

    Level suggestion +25 and 3 party members.
  7. Will be updating the game later on today. Will post a second post once I do so.  :D

    ETA: 15hours!
  8. Updated! 

    Guess I got in before the 15 hours time table!  :)

    Also, here are your new updates for the game:

    Enemies have been nerfered a bit more to make them very easy to kill.

    Enemy encounter rate has been extended in dungeons from 30 steps to 45.

    The game begins with two free saves - One is where Cedrick saves his hellhound pup and the other is where he does not - for those players who want to skip to the meat of the story.

    Added a new feature to Heph's Sacred Seal - it now warps players to the beginning of certain dungeons. (For those people who get stuck or want to pull out, though be careful since you will need to physically leave the dungeon so as not to get stuck in a loop where you can't get out. The rescue the Orc Trader questline specifically this applies.)

    Finished a good portion of the 4th world area leaving you able to play a multitude of side quests and buy/furnish your house.

    Also the casino is now implemented into the game.

    Gave Cedrick a New Skill: Black Rainbow - Only usable with certain swords.

    Added the bestiary - Obtain within Cedrick's Hovel at the beginning of the game.

    -More features to be added soon.

    If there are any question or comments please let me know. :D

    Also, for cautious gamers, it is advised to make a extra save when entering a new region and leaving it be. Just in case you run into a bug somewhere that I didn't see.
  9. Game updated!

    For those who got stopped in Cedrick's dream that has been corrected.

    Also, added the dragon's quest. - Completed.

    Added Finding Work quest. - Started.

    Main Quest will now continued until the point where other party members rejoin the team.

    If there are anymore bugs please let me know~!
  10. Game has been updated!

    The main questline has now been updated! 

    The bestiary has been suspended until further notice because of bugs.

    If there are any bugs, please let me know!
  11. Game updated!

    The main quest has been updated!

    Also, the monster encyclopedia has been tweaked and returned to the main menu.

    I've added the ability to organize item in the main menu by using Yanfly's Item Menu.

    Character specific private actions for Hu'gho has been initiated.

    Two optional superbosses have been added to the game, one being Leviathan and...

    There's a new town in the latest area of the game filled with snowmen. Have fun with them!
  12. The game has been updated! Sorry for the long wait but there is A LOT of new content.

    1. The main quest has been updated to the point of entering a new world.

    2. Both Vanris and Asura, the companies within Gomorrah, have been implemented and now Cedrick can choose which he would like to work for. 

    - In this Cedrick can earn money and fight different bosses and explore areas which he can never do if he worked for the opposing company. 

    - A class change for Cedrick is possible at one company and at the other you'll meet an old friend very early.

    3. Depending on which company Cedrick chooses he can gain the wakewater an item which can be used to awaken the giants in the village in Cocytus. (This will begin a chain which can allow him to gain the best ending if you have a certain character)

    4. If you've gained the golden ticket you can travel to Elysium, the land of light, and purchase some very powerful equipment, but for a VERY heavy cost. You can also purchase special weapons which can be used to gain x2 experience in battle... but at the price of not having any extra ATK in battle.

    5. There's a sidequest that can be done within the new world map if you go to a certain side area early, but only if you've been nice to a certain merchant in Hell. This sidequest will net you a VERY useful blade for the new world.

    6. The Meditate command now removes debuffs and certain status ailments that corporeal stimulants and mental stimulants do not remove like Soul Cold.

    If there are any bugs please let me know! Also, feedback is appreciated!
