no way this vn has being on hold for so long i forgot it existed but it came back eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee im so exited though i wish astara had a part 2 to it as i would have loved to see my boy amicus with his hubby
I think Khemia is a reality check for the Adastra universe. I had this romantisized idea of the Galaxias after playing Adastra, but I love that the Echo Project has taken a different approach with Khemia. As a guy I've always wanted to be in the place of Marco in Adastra, but I never considered what that would be like for a woman in Adastran society and I am glad that Khemia explores that flaw. I thought that the Alliance with the Khemians would be very straight forward especally since Amicus is friends with one of the sons of the Pharaoh. However, the suspiciously advanced Khemian-built tech and classified information that even the son of the Pharaoh isn't allowed to know, again emphasises the complex politics and shatters that romanticised image I had of the Adastra Universe as a whole. Thank you Echo Project for creating such a captivating piece of fiction and art <3!
Now that build 4 is out on patreon, when will it be released on here. Because I only have the free plan on Patreon and I really want to read the next par
I wonder if there are any issues with dropping the next build, with the payment processor problems recently. Is the next build going to be uploaded here or downloadable from Patreon? Or is the itch launcher required to run the VN, which is causing issues? Am looking forward to the next public release build!
Sadly, I dont think i will personally be playing Khemia at all. Looking at the story and plot lines, it would appear as though we are no longer following, well, literally us. Now, I'm not brandishing this game at all, and I recommend you play it! It's just not the story continuation that I was looking for. I'm happy waiting for a direct update to Adastra instead.
If Howly has no plans for a sequel, then based on the timeline, KHEMIA should be the finale of the series, and Amicus’s story will also conclude here. I’m not sure what you’re aiming for, but when writing a free FVN, shouldn’t the first goal be to create it for themself rather than to please others?
that is true, though I do hope for a sequel to adastra, it just feels like we dropped the main plot line is all. The human was the center of attention, and then got ripped away in Khemia. That's all I'll say. It just doesn't feel like we followed one plot line, and now there's a huge open gap that my brain will have a hard time filling.
I'm starting the story after reading Adastra and it feels fine! Kinda sad they got separated... and i'm still having the expectancy of the human coming back and loving his dear wolf forever, i hope they portray that.
As people say, i'm also disappointed by the character's changes, neferu looks more like a dog, and Amicus looks less of himself, stiff, less 3d and just like... a different wolf? also he looks less hot... i don't like this!
They could just have him portrayed him better as an emperor, intelligent and matured, and STILL looking like him, just as before. It's not like "oh guys, y'all just nostagious and used to the old artstyle and bla bla blah" erroneous and biased assumption, he just looks too different, his bodily personality (sharp eyes, defined muzzle, confident look) from before threw aside. A contrast is that Virginia is absolutely gorgeous! they made a good rework on her. Also neferu, even that i didn't really like too much of the change, he still feels like him.
Time passed in-story, but Amicus just straight changed his genes man.. atleast for me.
Furthermore, despite my hate for the new artstyle, i need to congratule this mix of politics and romance, i've never seem before, it feels intriguing as well as astonishing.
i don't get it? last game they were already physicaly fit/realistic, whatever i think you mean by it. They just got matured a little bit, and yeah, it looks nicer. not amicus whole new face though... although i'm used to it.
I beg to differ. Imo Virginia's rework is way worse than the rest, especially since her eyes aren't even in the right perspective. With Amicus I can live with but you're right; I think his overall character has changed a lot for 3 years and the artstyle just adds to that.

I love the new CGs, it shows their actual physique, and I don't like where this is heading.....
A year has already passed when it transitioned from khemia to adastra???
it's nearing to almost 8 years in the game, we getting Marco CG soon???
Is the story of this complete, or is it still a WIP?
WIP, it's why it's to be continued

I kinda like the new sprites, it shows their actual physique or something close to that
