Forlorn Memories is a love letter to the JRPG genre and a story-driven 3D steampunk fantasy classic inspired RPG with life-sim elements, contemporary storytelling and QoL improvements to create an RPG experience that feels both nostalgic and modern at the same time.

The story revolves around a group of heroes who have little in common except their shared quest to recover their lost memories.

“Memories are fleeting – what are you willing to sacrifice to remember?”

Characters:
Explore the world of Forlorn Memories as one of over 16 different playable characters, each with their own unique abilities, classes and backstory. Once a party member decides to join you on your journey, you can switch between them at any time. (Each character can be visually customized to a degree that still fits their personality, story, and style)

Two Art Styles
Forlorn Memories uses two different graphic styles, the anime-inspired Chibi style (SD) used for the exploration part and a more detailed, non-chibi-style (SD) graphic style for the game’s battle scenarios and story sequences designed by talents such as Yoshitomo Ikawa (Mistwalker).

Work In Progress:
Please keep in mind that Forlorn Memories is still in development and the shown media is not final.

Features:

Tactical Combat

When words fall flat and a conflict escalates into combat, experience the accessible yet deep turn-based combat system where you identify and exploit your enemies’ weaknesses. (No random encounters, so you can avoid your enemies if you want).

Friend or Foe

Detailed interactions and relationships between playable characters and NPCs. This can even lead to marriage and other peaceful couple activities. (Yes, same-gender relationships are possible.)

Explore the World

Run, swim, sail, fly, drive and ride through the world. Forlorn Memories offers a variety of movement and travel methods to travel through a huge fantasy world filled with events and side stories.

Crafting & Gathering

Mix potions and medicines, dig for buried treasure, craft armour, clothing and weapons, catch bugs, mine ores, go fishing, cook various foods and create and repair your own automata. How you achieve your goals is up to you.

Give abandoned pets a new home

Adopt pets like cats, dogs, horses and more. (Yes, you can pet them and name them!)

Gardening

Grow different types of plants. Gift them to NPCs, sell them, use them as a crafting ingredient or use some of them in battle. Or you can grow tiny sprout spirit creatures that can help you on your journey and evolve over time to learn new skills.

Minigames

Conquer the skies with your own airship and destroy enemies with your mech in the game’s fully optional Shoot ’em up and Top-down Shooter sections.
