Magical Girl Odyssey

Working on an RPG inspired by Grandia & Lunar, with Zelda-style dungeons and puzzle solving.
Pinned
This is my RPG concept I am making called Magical Girl Odyssey, inspired by n64-era 3D dungeon design.

The protagonist is a priestess named Houtu, who uses cards to summon spirits of the Zodiac.

Follow for Concept Art + Updates as I work to make this project a reality in Godot!

Happy Zodiac Year of the Snake! 🐍
Wanted to draw an illustration, but been hard at work on the lore writing. Thank you for your understanding!

The past few weeks have been very busy with lore writing. Apologies for lack of graphical updates.
Please sit tight, development things are coming together!

A bit behind schedule on conceptual phase.

Napkin-estimates what remains:
- World-Building/Lore document: 75%
- Ch01 Writing: 80%
- Ch02 Writing: 50%
- Design Doc: Visuals Designs: 5%
- Design Doc: Mechanics & Formulas: 5%

(Design docs will proceed swiftly once others are done.)

Concept art for a Healer NPC - Remilia Velours.

A sadistic healer who numbs pain instead of healing it.

The design purpose of this character is to allow players to heal in dungeons, in exchange for sacrificing free time events later on.

In this story, Magical Girls use Sealing Rods to capture creatures called Zodiacs and seal them inside cards.
One calls upon their Zodiac Cards to summon them as allies and cast spells.

This art is a dev template for now. Please look forward to future artwork!

Draft of Chapter 01 Narrative Script almost done.
Since the intro is focused on getting players into gameplay ASAP, it has simple story with low dialogue..
I tried to fit some cute details. (eg. MC's partner thanking her if player buys him sushi from the shop.)

Chapter 02 length will be a behemoth.

Script writing is currently in progress.

Tianlu - Zodiac Earth Dragon.
Main character's partner. He fights alongside Houtu using the power of Earth, conjuring magical jade.

Long ago, he was mistaken for a stray cat, and adopted by Houtu's family. He has been her protective companion ever since.

Work in Progress (NOT FINISHED)
Light Temple Concept Art
Still have a lot needed to add and fix, including more shading, highlights, metallic shines, and many more details. (Possibly ambient occlusion too.)
Final phase of the piece intended to include reflective floor, and a dove.
Very excited!
