Indie developer of a choose your path visual novel, Ranaya:Caged!

RANAYA:CAGED - A 16+ PSYCHOLOGICAL HORROR ORIENTED VISUAL NOVEL

4 chapters set in a dystopian world in the year 2036 following three preys, whose fates have been rendered irredeemable as if set in stone, trying to escape the hands of a cruel specie.

The only one who was left with the slightest chance of fulfilling their deepest desires and wishes before they turn into nothingness is you, dear reader!

CONTENT WARNINGS AND ADDITIONAL INFO UNDER THE CUT!

As of now, R:C is in the state of DEVELOPMENT.

Full game includes pre-chapter establishing part, called PROLOGUE (currently sitting at almost 40k words) - which has been divided into PART 1 and PART 2 - and four individual CHAPTERS, where chapter is twice the size of a PROLOGUE.

I tried my hardest to make a story where choices do matter and where a person truly has to think about the consequences of their actions, which is why I settled for numerous ways how each released part can end. Currently, PROLOGUE can be ended in 17 different outcomes and that number will rapidly increase with the number of CHAPTERS out. Please, be patient with development as I'm a sole person working on this project and it's a major factor that slows my development speed, considering I have a life outside of this as well.

Once PART 1 is ready to be sent into the world, I will link itch.io page into this post and inform everyone about its release.

TRIGGER WARNINGS included in the project as of PROLOGUE and individual chapters onwards are as following;

psychological manipulation,

graphic violence and deaths,

forced aversion towards LGBTQ+ characters,

multiple mental health struggle topics,

implied sexual content,

racism towards minority,

pseudo-jumpscares,

major impersonation,

and various other triggering topics that may be not suitable for everyone.

The themes mentioned are not only just implied but portrayed in the project as realistically as I was able to make them to be at the time of creation. I ask everyone to proceed with caution and if anything from the things I have listed is a topic you do not find comfortable to view or read about, avoid playing R:C at all cost.

I trust people who decide to be a part of the project to fully understand what they are able to withstand and what not. First and foremost, take a good care of your mental being before you dive head in into this.

See you soon, dear readers!

We've reached a third and last spoiler-less protagonist of the project, one, who has no appearance yet in PART 1 of PROLOGUE, Aryne!

He is the only character that never had to go through name or drastic appearance change! Also, one of the first ones to be implemented into the project.

For the fourth hidden protagonist, each one of you, readers, will have to stay patient and wait for their glorious reveal!

Onto the second protagonist of the series, dear roomate and best friend of Amerra, Shiccaru!

Not much was done during the evolution of him except for the fact that he is no longer sharing a body with the antagonist nor is he stupid. Most of the time, that is.

Stay tuned for the third protagonist's comparison to come in the nearest future, dear readers!

Pleased to start posting on this blog featuring our beloved protagonist herself, Amerra! Let's compare her beta and final design together.

To be frank, I do not have a singular idea on what exactly happened in between those designs. Edgy phase? Alien invasion? Or maybe just because my whole project's genre did a 180 and I'm overthinking this topic.

Regardless, I cannot be more excited to finally start unfolding my story or its characters and share it with each one of you who stumbled upon this blog.
