Hello. I'm Florina D.I. Mushin. One half of STUDIO//LYNFLO. Let me talk about our game, DRAGONFRUIT: a mother's love. We have a demo.
Art by the incredible BeakLimit. Our intrepid protagonists, Doria and Kestrel.
Here is the game project we’ve been making. We have a demo if you want to play it.
DRAGONFRUIT: a mother’s love
It is a strategy RPG with the soul of a visual novel. A love letter to character strategy with plenty of scribbles in the margins.
Our story is about a princess named Doria who, inspired by her favorite storybooks, runs away from the castle to strike it out on her own and be a brave hero-princess! However, reality is no storybook, and she is immediately captured and taken for ransom by a clever rogue named Kestrel. The fragile stability of the continent begins to unravel as the Empire seems to want their princess back more dead than alive, invading every neighboring country in the process. Doria will assuredly get her fill of adventure and Kestrel might find a reward more valuable than a princess’s ransom.
With themes of conspiracy, adventure, body dysmorphia, societal expectations, generational trauma, and above all else: community and healing through found family, in a world that is anything but stable, there is one truth that is certain:
“You will change, and I’ll still love you.”
You can play the first three chapters of DRAGONFRUIT: a mother’s love… RIGHT NOW. (You can play the rest of the chapters a bit later.)
It’ll take a bit more time than we’d like to finish it, but finish it we will.
(Yes, we aren’t going to make that July 10th, 2023 deadline. Feel free to make fun of us preemptively…)
Feel free to ask us any questions here, and I’ll do my best to answer them. I wanted to make the game that I needed to play when I was younger. With any luck, I’ll make something that younger self would be proud of.
