I'm totally new to this complete fandom, but it's like i entered a wondrous rabbit hole - and with every moment i dig deeper into it, the more i know i never want to leave it anymore. Adastra was the right one to start it. Laughed and cried (and i mean that) while proceeding through the story.

It's just that it passed too fast - which is while i'm feeling kinda numb at this moment. All the emotions brought into this VN, through writing, graphics and music caught me completely, wholesome and i definetly was not prepared for something like that. 

I know my mind will be kept occupied to some degree with Adastra and Amicus for a very long time.

I played many games in my life and almost every big title with a story to tell. Though, there are just one or two titles out there, that had generated such emotional response in me.

You've done a great job with Adastra, everyone who was involved in creating this masterpiece.

Thank you so much <3

That awful feeling when you are done with a game/movie/series and you come to terms with that it's over, and that you are never going to experience it the same way as for the first time. 

I personally spend at least a week just thinking about it all, then it just goes away. Truly a shame that things aren't the same anymore once you have experienced them already, and then you just feel empty for a little while

Well i'm 29 by now and i have never felt this feeling you're describing so massively and even now i distract myself with other things like fitness or work or somethin' else. 

Though, i'm glad that i made this experience ~

I could not agree more with you about this, I'm just getting into the whole Furry fandom, I am a straight man but this story was so good that it still had me feeling so connected to the story that I too was in tears at parts of the story

I hope that they make a continuation of when Amicus gets reunited

(+1)

And like that, i appreciate your opinion more. Good written stories can catch many people, even if it somehow wasn't supposed to. 

I'm now a few weeks out of Adastra, but still think about it. And if the creators from Echo Project weren't thinking about a vn continuing the story yet: They will at least talk about it, minding all the comments here ;)

(+1)

I sure hope they have intentions to do so or will at least consider it, I found the way it ended very hard to come to terms with, but I think that may have been the intent

I would totally love to see a movie made of this I think it would be a great movie adapted from an even greater VN

This game puts all other relationships portrayed in media to shame, 10/10 it has my whole heart

That is my exact thought process! I have never seen such a beautifully written relationship, I love how natural it feels. There is one comic that is kind of comparable, and that is Cinder Frost. While I do like the relationship dynamic, the comic is all over the place, and in my opinion, pretty poorly paced. Regardless, I would still heavily recommend it!

(+2)

this is literally the only game that has ever made me cry, 10/10 would reccomend

ONLY WATCH THIS IF YOU'VE FULLY READ ADASTRA!.*majorspoiler*

I absolutely LOVE this game so far. Absolutely floors me with the quality of the writing, the art, and the premise. Everything is executed in perfect harmony, and I cant wait to experience more of it. Infectious fun, insane plot developments, and a rich world to envelop yourself all combine to make this one of my favorite VNs I've ever played.

(+1)

Update: I have now finished the game and absolutely recommend it to any and everyone who is interested. One of my favorite story's I've ever read- put me through the whole spectrum of human emotion. Absolutely phenomenal, my only complaint is that it ended.

(+1)

If you guys haven't seen it yet you should check out the new fan project "Adastra 3D" here on itch. It's definitely a wip but what is there is beautifully done.

(+4)

Since today is amicus birthday. 😌

Hey so can someone explain how to open the game.

(1 edit)

You need to download the version for your device. For Mac I know you need to unzip the file and put it in your Applications folder. But you might have to mess with System Preferences > Security and Privacy > click on the lock > unlock it and > check the "Anywhere" option. For android you just need to install the APK file. For Windows and Linux I have no idea, maybe run the installation pack?

echo project-fantastic job guys!best VN so far i reading...and cry like a little girl!:)

(+1)

Guys! I need you help! I can't download adastra on my android 😭😭😭 anyone? Help me?

What seems be the problem ...?

Check storage ... Or permissions

I already have enough space for this..... What permission?

here.... I already click the download button then I wait until 15 mins *i guess* but its doesn't start downloading.... Plus! I check the pop up blocker and allowed itch... I dont know what's happening!

Try to download It with a PC and then transféré It t tour phone

yes It's unusual and strange ... It should start when you presse download button

(+1)

Amazing! Oh, what I would do to play this VN for the first time again.. It was such a magical experience! If you're reading the comments, deciding on if you should try this out or not, DO IT! You will not regret it in the slightest.

WOOOO WOOOO BIG BOOBAS

IM GAY BUT YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

I didn't think that I'd ever cry playing a visual novel yet here I am.

This isn't just just a visual novel, it's much more than that. I got really involved in the story and it was awesome. Thank you for this piece of art.

Dam i keep seeing this game alot and i think its cool but i havent downloaded it until now and boy oh boy it is the best decision ive ever made. Like, the story and characters are great! The artstyle, the background and all of that stuff impressed me so much. I am super glad that this is made and i discovered it :)

(2 edits) (+6)

I mean wow, where the fuck do i begin with. I've been neglecting to play this game ever since the final build dropped, which is a year old now, thinking its another dumb furry sex simulator and not an actual VN. And boy was i fucking surprised when i realised that this is probably the best written visual novel i played in my life. The story is a masterpiece, in a sense where you can get emotionally attached to certian characters, which rarely ever happens, especailly to me, who never cried about a game of this sorts, and trust me, it will leave you in tears as well, no matter what ending you get and what decsions you make, i am 99% guaranteed you're gonna be playing this until 11pm on a saturday night, and then crying yourself to sleep after it. 1000/10

(spoilers up ahead regarding the endings)

Truly a masterpiece, and i really wish there was a direct sequel to the Marco/Amicus story, altough there isn't alot you could work with.

And i know, the B ending makes the ending A seem like the parents lied and how the future you saw is false, but im still determined that there is a way to make another part or i guess chapter out of this. There's also Khemia, which you can count as a sequel i guess? I mean yeah, its the same universe, but we all know that people wanna see the continuation with the big chonke wolf, and apparently the midquel, Intera (i think that's what its called),is set in the 9 month time period you had before making a choice and is focused more on the characters we know rather than the political story, so i guess that's also a nice way to strengthen relationships before you cry about the main game again.

(end of spoilers)

Again, this comment's lenght wasn't really necessary, however i really want people who were skeptical like me to really try it out and expirence this masterpiece for themselves.

Thank you, to everyone at Echo Project, and i just hope that in the remaining 80 years of my life, i can expirence a game like this once again :).

(+1)

I don't really play any visual novels but Adastra really caught my eye since the entire story was interesting. Such an amazing game and amazing writing as well! Everything about it is really well done and I love how the writer tugs at the heartstrings of those who play it with the many different scenarios that happen between the protagonist and Amicus. I know that Khemia and Interea is on hiatus but I can't wait to see what happens later in the future!

(+2)

Only took me 7 hours of pure enjoyment. I've read many visual novels so far and very few have truely gained my full attention. Thus is great one and has the quality of a paid game. 10/10.

(+1)

Wait a fucking minute this is made by Echo Project!?! I mean that's not a bad thing I'm just genuinely surprised and shocked.

It is, yeah, and honestly it looks and is very different from their other games, though Adastra will remain my favorite

(+2)

Good game! Really enjoyed it!

(1 edit)

Ok this is a first... why am I getting a windows app store question, thanks?

(+4)

I finally gave in to the peer pressure and picked this up a few days ago. Now that I've finished, I just want to say how impressed I am by the character work and the depth of thought put into the world building for this story and universe. I was expecting little more than horny furry romance with the usual porno tropes. Granted, some of that is there, but it all exists in ways that I think serve the story and the characters well. I'm really looking forward to checking out your other VNs and to supporting your future efforts as well. Thank you for many hours of entertainment.

What come first after adastra? interea or khemia?

(+1)

Interea takes place during Adastra, in the months before the end. Khemia takes place 2.5 years after the events of Adastra

(1 edit)

Adastra (Interea)>Khemia

A.I.K.

(+3)

I'm almost at the end and I don't want to CRY T.T help huhuhu

Okay, great game so far but the way of how hurt I felt when i saw amicus

_______ Neferus or whatever his name was I literally felt heartbroken and started crying

*Neferu

Hoh man. I really, REALLY want a sequel for Adastra. I finished Adastra in a few days and after that, I died. It was really, REALLY good, BUT now I can't stop wondering what happens next! I need a sequeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeel!

(+2)

Check out: Khemia.

Khemia?

Yes.

What's it? What is it about?

2.5 years after Adastra

Khemia takes place 2 years and a half after the end of Adastra. The story deals with Amicus going on Khemia to complete the Alliance with the Khemians. In this game, you don't play the Human though. You play a young wolf named "Scipio" (The one you see in the pay-off at the end of Adastra). Khemia's likely to give us a Neferu x Scipio relationship, while Amicus deals with the bureaucratic shit (poor baby wolf :c)

If you want even more, you can play Interea. Interea's a spin-off to Adastra. It takes place DURING Adastra when Amicus takes the Human on a trip around the Moon. (In Adastra, this even is summed up in a few sentences. There also will be a likely plot regarding Alexios. Since he isn't shown but simply mentioned in Khemia, I supposed they'll kill him in Interea? That's no spoilers, don't worry, just a simple guess).

NB: Both are still under HEAVYYYYY development. In fact, Khemia's gameplay duration is around 30/45min then you're hit with a "To be continued..." whereas Interea lasts 20min only. (You're then also hit with a "TBC" screen)

This is due to a HUGE writer block (lack of inspiration) from the writer (Khemia) and also because the writer just moved houses, quite the distance, and had to stop writing (both games).

Khemia's been on hold for many months now, and Interea hasn't received any huge updates in a while now. However, things should get back to normal soon. I guess.

NB2: (I'm so invested LMAO) We still don't have any info regarding a possible "Adastra 2". However, this very morning, HAPS (Chara Design for Adastra/Khemia/Interea) just dropped an Amicus drawing on Twitter saying "Preview". Is that a sign for things to finally move? Who knows ;P

I'll just leave this here:

I want to know if one of the choices make any significant difference. I ask since it's near the start of the game and skipping doesn't stop for new text.

---Spoilers---















Is the choice between death being infinity or oblivion something that shows new scenes or is it just for show?


Indeed. One lead to the good end and the other to the bad end.

(1 edit)

Thanks! I just got back from testing it and got the same end. (I suspect it's the good end) Guess I misremembered what I chose :P

I believe there are 2 variants to the good end and in one you see a vision with who appears to be Meera (but may be the Other in in disguise). In the other you don't see her.

In fact the cannon version is the one where you see her since it's mentioned in Khemia when Scipio sees her.

Well, there are three endings. (SPOILERS!!)

The Good ending, which you end up having only if you answer "Infinity" when you're being asked what is death to you, "yes" when you're being asked if Amicus would be a great emperor, and "I think you should talk to him more" (or smth along those lines) when Amicus asks you if he should stick to Neferu. (or at least, score two of these answers.)

The Meera ending, which you end up having only if you answer less than two of the answers above.

The Bad Ending, which you end up having only if you answer "No" when the parents ask you if you'll submit to their benevolent will or something.

--

Now, if you have the Good ending, the Parents will show you a vision of you and Amicus, happy, in the future, and you finish the game trusting them (a little). This scene happens, if I recall correctly, on your last day on Adastra (when you visit the archives).

The Meera ending takes place at the same time, same place, but when the Parents are about to show you the vision, Meera, or the Other, we don't know yet, talks to you about how the Parents are evil, and you finish the game not really trusting the Parents.

And finally, the Bad ending, taking place right after Cato slashed your neck. If you answered "Yes" and agreed to work for the Parents, Amicus rushes to save you. And the game continues. If you answered "No", however, the Parents will let you die and the game ends here.

I’m confused how to play it everytime I download it it says error

I am having trouble to colse the keyboard (andriod)

Well, Khemia takes place about 2.5 years after the end of Adastra and Marco's mission on Earth is suppose to take about 8 years, so we are not likely to see them get together in Khemia. 

However, since Amicus is getting updates of what is happening on Earth it begs the question of how? If they have some ship hidden around Earth it can access the internet and get news and return it back to Adastra on a regular basis. Or maybe the Parents are providing the info?

Either way, Amicus and Marco might be able to send messages (text or video) to each other through Marco's portal/tablet but probably not in real time. I think that is the best we can hope for right now.

(+7)

I regret playing this game... because This will never happen to me and I wish it happened...

(1 edit) (+1)

I was just making casual talk with others that read this VN, and, well, according to this, aliens are (supposedly) considered a real thing and dragons are a common thing among cultures. I'll leave the rest of the thinking to you...

(+1)

FYI, the latest ECHO Patron posting stated that we will be getting an update to Interea sometime this month (no specific date set yet tho).

(+1)

Any news on Khemia...? 

*fingers crossed*

Well the intent always was to get back to Khemia once Interea is done, so...I assume that's still the plan.

(+1)

Honestly doubt Interea will ever be done because it is simply filler. Depending on how many days in-between Adastra and its ending will be additional time for devs to put Khemia on hold. Remembering the last arc from Naruto Shippudden...so much unnecessary filler...

(1 edit)

Actually, I believe he is using it to provide background info for Khemia so he doesn't need to do as much flashbacks/expositions on past events. 

A good example is that in Khemia Brunis is a Wolverine with a cyborg arm and smokes that plant for his pain, but otherwise we do not know much about him.

In Interea we learn about the Wolverines and how the Khemians were uplifting them when the Wolves attacked and killed the Khemian scientists and all but two of the Wolverines. Hence we have a good idea how Brunis lost his arm and why he smokes that plant (PTSD issues probably) and why he is one of the diplomats for Khemia (to rub the Wolves noses in their crime against his race).

I'm sure we will see more of this in Interea and have it tie into Khemia later.

After months of deliberation and indecisiveness..., I finally made the plunge to buy a 20x72 medium firm microfiber polyester pillow by Acanva from Amazon. Bought a second one to enhance the thicc to match his thicc dad bod~ Good reviews, highly recommended! Link: 

https://www.amazon.com/Acanva-Hypoallergenic-Sleeping-Sleeper-Extra-Long/dp/B08F...

Excluding tax and shipping: $50 sheet, $25/pillow, wallet-friendly.

(+2)

Amazing!! I'm now jealous haha

(2 edits) (+2)

Get yours at Pawprint Press before shipping prices spike!

Note: you might have to settle if you choose the bigger sheet as there may be less options to choose from. I couldn't find any memory foam pillows for 180x60cm/20x72in sizes.

(+1)

Ooh I'm jealous!!! 😂😂😂😅😅😅

Day 25 after finishing the game and I still can't get over it and its bittersweet ending

Man, I don't know what impressed me the most between the excellent writing or the wholesomeness of Amicus

This is me aswell. 😭😭

ok look U hate furries fair but coming into a VN which is about furries is not cool, it's quite literally as if you're just bored and decided to shit stir, keep it out of here if you don't like it don't go a place about it simple as that.

(-6)

O wow just cause I didn't like a story and gave my opinion means I just spent 3 hours reading it just to Hate on it see.I don't care if you read this shit a bunch of times you have ur opinion is anybody hating on ur opinion no so let me have my opinion without someone telling me o you hating on cause its a furry vn that's not even the thing the shits generally ass 

(+8)

Did someone say ass~? I must concur!

(1 edit) (+3)

You're not giving an opinion, you're just a bored kid looking for some attention. Seeking for a fight must let you feel important and considerate, but you didnt considerate that here you are alone against an entire loyal fandom. Haters are just stupid as the tought that offending something gives you the right to call it opinion even if it is not. So little baby 🤏

Nah, nah! Man up, boy! You don't get to piss and shit on people and run away without consequence. Leave your tainted mark here for everyone to smell, so we can learn on what not to be - an inconsiderate little but loud attention-whoring receptacle of antifurryturd. Also, you're still here despite telling us "I'm done with y'all dumb fucks see ya" just three days ago! 😆

Wait, you are telling your friends about Adastra? Thanks for the diffusion!! :D

(-2)

Imma end it here cuz I'm now generally confused

(+4)

Let me shoot some diffusion to your confusion~

You say you hate furries, and want all that ass buried~

You think you've folded, but your friends've found gold~

No matter whatever you try to say~

Adastra will always be here, ése~

So sit alone in a corner and cry boohoo~ 

Or join us, travel to our worlds, and roar woohoo~

Well I do agree that there were points where the story felt like it was dragging on and can understand not liking furries, but as an overall story it was actually quite nice. I started out with "coming out on top" and tried to find more visual novels of that aspect but the majority of visual novels that you find have some furry element. At that point, I just grew use to seeing furry related content even though I'm never really trying to look for it. Just trying to find some good story telling and I think this visual novel did quite alright. As for the age thing... uh I would think this a bit of an exaggeration, while I don't doubt there are members of that age, I wouldn't say half of the community is of that age. At the end of the day this is a piece of writing and everything we have stated in regards to the writing is opinionated. And yes I am aware you stated you didn't enjoy this visual novel for it's writing and not cause of the furry aspect of it all. It just hypocritical to say it's your opinion that the vn is shit and then say how can anyone find this good... just like your statement it's an opinion.

(2 edits) (+2)

What did the community ever personally do to you to deserve such viscuous hate oozing from the remnant that is your soul?

Did your parents walk in on you while you gawked at Lola Bunny in Space Jam, and then they reprimanded you your entire life?

If your friend was a furry, would you treat them the same as you treat the fandom? The problem may not be coming from outside but from within. You say you hate furries, but ultimately you hate your self since you feel the hate yourself.

You do realize ratings are mere guidelines and not enforceable mandates, right? Otherwise, you wouldn't have been able to play cult classics in grade school. Thank your parents for that at least.

Also, I don't simp for human MC. I simp for Amicus and Neferu.

(-2)

Cool wow u feed into the attention the apparently I wanted second I always didn't like the fandom even when I was in it

(1 edit)

Nani? Engrish muc?

Ik this might seem slightly unrelated but doesn't anyone have link or image of neferu drawn as his younger self?  I remember seeing it long while back but can't find it anymore

I don't know which image you're talking about but that's all I found lmao
