Hope you all enjoy! Begin Warpdrive! <3 History: Spoiler It is the year 212 AXW: the Great War that ravaged the galaxy of Xerxes has given way to contentious peace. One of the legendary heroes of the war, Arcturo Rave, now presides over Xerxes as the High King. His influence, though considerable, is barely containing a galaxy divided. Much of the conflict stems from two age-old adversaries: the humanoid Errans of House Rave in Sector 4, and the lizard-like Draconians in Sector 1. To defuse the tension, Draconian Count Vorakia Estuuban wishes to merge two of the most influential houses from Sector 1 and Sector 4 through the marriage of Princess Ellemine Rave (daughter of the High King) and Prince Chad Zephyr (son of Lord Falric Zephyr). The High King approves of this union between the Errans of House Rave in Sector 4 and the Humans of House Zephyr in Sector 1. However, the Count may have an agenda of his own for this marriage, and may not have the best interest of the galaxy in mind. Could House Zephyr simply be a puppet of the Draconian Count in this union? Story: Spoiler Klein Cryoz, the personal bodyguard of Princess Ellemine Rave, finds himself caught up in a twist of unfavorable events. Journey into the galaxy of Xerxes and enter Klein's life, as he finds himself caught up in a galactic feud. Along the way, the fragments of his long-forgotten dark past surface, piece by piece. Will he be able to do his duty, withstand the pressure of a brewing war, all the while having his past haunt him?

I am moving into commercial game dev, & I wish to ask for aid. Steam reviews, I heard, help a game reach more players. & it would mean the world to me if anyone who's played Rave Heart left a review on the Steam page. Thank you so much! ^_^ <3 As I develop BlueSkies 3 into my next commercial RPG maker game, I will need a lot of help reaching more people via Rave Heart. & your reviews help me achieve that if you have already played it! Much love! <3

ANNOUNCEMENT:

Rave Heart Overhaul Edition is now live on Steam & Itch! Enjoy a new side quest with powerful foes, new in-game artwork, WASD movement, bug fixes, and more!

Note: Unfortunately, it's been found that old saves from an older version of Rave Heart are no longer compatible with this update. The best solution I could give to anyone who wishes to continue their playthrough is to send me a DM on discord Starmage#4488 and send me which part you are right now in the game of your old save, and a screenshot of your party level + items + equipment, and I'll try creating a new save for you based on the info you gave me. Thank you so much!

I love the race variation. Too many games keep it simple with planet humans vs space humans or just humans.

I wish we would more often see this level of variety!
