Sullan is quite trained in the medical field, some saying because of his father's status as a surgeon, though he doesn't particularly even like medical work oddly enough.

SCREENSHOTS
Spoiler for:










PROGRESSION
EASS: (Exocosm Anamnesis Shell System)
Individual characters themselves do not level up themselves or gain stats, instead this is done in the form of various "Shells".


 
Shells are a part of a universal inventory, so regardless of where the story jumps, which characters you control, or even what era of time you're in...the shells will always be with you, and your development of them will never halt. According to the lore, these Shells are formations of human memories that form after an individuals death. More insight into how new Shells are created will come at the end of the demo if you guys want to check that out! More shells will be acquired as the game progresses.
 
So how exactly does a Shell gain power? Well, when fought with in battle, the Shells gain Shell Points or SP.
Then you can begin learning the skills on each Shell's individual skill web.

 
Fill in all the skills and stat boosts on an Anamnesis Shell and it will become an Anamnesis Core. Let's get more into that.
 
Anamnesis Shells come from a person, they are formations of a deceased person's memory data -- more specifically their desire to be understood by others. Transforming a shell into a core renders this wish fulfilled. But you don't just complete the skill nodes on it's web.
 
Shell Stories
When a Shell becomes complete, its story is unlocked -- these are called "Shell Stories" You will play a whole scenario following the persons life up until their death. It can be of a life highlighting event, or even an overall life story. These Shell Stories have original writers, artists, self contained stories (sometimes) tying into the bigger picture, sometime not. These Shell Stories can also happen all throughout time and you may fall into any country, time, or persons life when starting one. Most have full dungeons, parties, and a whole unique story to complete.
 
Upon completing the Shell Story of the corresponding Shell it will become a core.
Cores have all their abilities powered up, the person with the core equipped will gain battle quotes from it's character and...keeping some cores on your field character may just lead to some present day resolution for its story. If you're in the right place that is. The full game has a total of 30 Shells.
 
Gameplay

 
Gameplay in Divided Infinity is done in the form of a custom side view battle system, with custom animations to fit inside of that. There are four person parties and members may be swapped out in real time.
 
Other skills will chain from regular attacks allowing combos to be formed up to the players choice.

 
 
 
Original Soundtrack
Complete with a large, original, heartfelt soundtrack to accompany its large story script. Divided Infinity draws the talent of three music Composers from the United States, Sweden and France into the mix.  Each delivering a piece to our score that only they could have.

Ahh, spoiler tagged those screenshots. Apologies.
Anywho, it's a bit early.

But the first demo should be up in a few hours!
Hoping folks rip it apart so we can perfect it over here.

This will help us finalize the overall structure of the game on a deeper level than
>> SCENE >> FIELD >> TOWN >> DUNGEON >> >>REPEAT<<

There's a collection of voiced scenes in the pipeline to release within the next week.
Following that a town demo. Lots of fully voiced scenes in that one that shows you how we make the towns work and unique conversations based on your selected field character.

It's a hefty task, but each NPC in the game is a full blown conversation, not one liner.
Even more so these are voiced and unique to your selected field character/party leader.

We're in the recording process for the conversations right now and I have a few more to write.
Expect the demo up shorty as all the artwork, town itself, and voices are cast.

Also here's a look at the final version of the Shell Equipping menu. This menu pops up everytime there's a party switch.
Also I suppose this confirms that by the end of the game each character can equip a total of Four Shells.
It makes for some pretty nifty Class/Style creation.
