About three to four years into development.
And still no demo. Heh, I'ma perfectionist.
And this project, well... It's not the easiest game to work on
I'll just say that much.
" I see my path, but I don't know where it leads.
Not knowing where I'm going is what inspires me to travel it." And so, a family legacy began - 15 years ago.

Much before that – long ago in the World of Alterra, the wind's lips whispered peace as itswept through the vast expanses of the plains. Thousands of years of peace blew by, until the race of Humans began to quarrel with the many other races of Alterra. A single ash of conflict erupted into a fire that would burn away at the years of peace that so delicately embraced the land of Alterra for many ages.
At the center of the conflict was the Chaos Kingdom - said to be the most powerful dominion in the all of five kingdoms of Alterra. In times of peril, The Great Goddess would call for the Origintas to aid the Chaos Kingdom. Origintas were youth whose lineage traced back to the Ancients and whose purpose was to restore peace to the world.
By the power of the Origintas, the conflict eventually calmed, and more time passed by under another blanket of peace. A century later, this all changed. A very powerful Originta abused his heavenly gift, turned against the other gods, and attempted to use his power to shape the world to his own fantasies and desires. It was then that our hero's father, Kaiza the Flame Originta, undertook a dangerous journey to defeat this monster. Human Power alone could not vanquish the evil Originta, and so Kaiza gave his life to push his Originta power to its very limits.
Though Kaiza died, his sacrifice saved the World of Alterra, sealing the Fallen One for Fourteen Years until his son, Seeo, was mature to accept his burden and finish what his father had started. Seeo Briune is now a seventeen year old Knight in the Sirdeka Army. Stubborn and playful, Seeo usually missed the points of some of the essential things in life. A new war between Humans and Monsters begins - one to rival any previous war.
A struggle to save Sirdeka's Castle will change Seeo's life forever. The young knight now searches for the truth and will soon discover his destiny to become the next Flame Originta. As his father before him, Seeo's destiny would soon hold the fate of the realm of Alterra in his young hands.
This is his story.
The story of Chaos Generations
First and foremost, I'll say that I've been labeled many things since the beginning of this project.
And through my learning process of it all, I do hope all grudges aside,you would be
able to humble yourself to the point of being able to effectively enjoy the game. I don't ask
for your friendship, hell even your acceptance. I just ask that you give the game a fair chance,
it's all I can and will ask for...

Snowe's past is clouded with mystery. The dissapearence of his parents at a young age, fueled that of Snowe's never-dying determination to fight and prove himself to the Sirdeka Knights and the world.

Shortly after arriving he meets Seeo who becomes his best and only friend. Thereafter, gaining hope of doing great things to become accepted.

As far as progress with Chaos Generations. The team factor is beneficial as well as a real pain in the ass at times. Theres usually always a one step forward and two step backward sort of thing going on, so as of now I'm not going to be giving dates anymore. However, I'll be sure to update with more information, screenshots, artwork, and all that good stuff as I get stuff in. You all probabaly already know I'm good for that. Well until I update,
