Symphony of the Origin announced

Matteo Conti of Kemco Games has written in to announce that Symphony of the Origin, a prequel to the Android/iOS jRPG Symphony of Eternity, is now in development.

Once upon a time, humans, elves and dwarves lived on the earth. Under a treaty of nonintervention, world peace was protected without any conflict… until that all collapsed suddenly. The tribes of darkness came out of the underworld and began attacking the kingdom of humans. The humans were forced both to accept battle and to go on the defensive. The humans saw the huge power of the tribes of darkness and called them ‘ Evils of the Earth-depths’…

It is during a ferocious attack of the Evils that Ryle, a young soldier of the kingdom, faces his destiny by activating a golem sleeping in the basement of the castle. The young hot-blooded guy sets off on a journey, strengthening his ties of friendship, and meeting new friends and foes- characters which will take part in this immense and legendary adventure story.

Cue incredi-cheesey J-pop trailer in 3…2…1…

According to Conti, Symphony of the Origin “is planned for before the end of 2012, first for Android™ OS and then for iOS platforms.” I’ll be sure to post when that happens!

    First of all, “Evils.” Terrible. I wish they would hire translators with a penchant for creative writing. =/

    Also, I’m not sure how I feel about those battle graphics. In screenshots they look cool but the animation in the video looks… like a flash game, perhaps?

    I’ll buy it anyways. @_@

    I just wanted to say thank you! You’ve been doing an awesome job lately posting new stories and such! Great stuff! How about some reviews for games available on Desura and Steam or some such?

    I’m working on a review now, but it’s not for anything on Steam or Desura. (Let’s be honest: Steam games get enough preferential treatment as it is.)

    Either way! I would just love to see some reviews, I just threw those services out there because there are some decent indie RPGs on both platforms. Can’t wait to read it!

    Also, this game looks great! I really love the art style! However, that trailer isn’t the best.
