A Dragon Riders Kickstarter is in the works.  Please click to follow so you can be notified on launch and don’t miss the first 48 hours special. 

Q. Can you date the Sentient Dragons?  

A.  Yes.  That’s what it’s all about.  And there are a few furry Dragon Riders as well.

Q. Is it NSFW?  

A. The base game is SFW and there will be a NSFW Patch in the countries that allow it on Steam, and accessible almost everywhere on Itch.  

Q.  Yeah but…do you DATE the dragons?  That dragon looks huge.  

A. You can become a dragon yourself, and be with your dragon.  In the artwork it shows you as a human attaining a relative size to your dragon.  It’s a complicated game mechanic, and you should read the Steam Page (and Wishlist while you’re there) for the full explanation.

Customizable Love Interests

Q. Is this Bara or BL? 

A. You can pick beefy/musclely Love Interest sprites, or pretty/handsome Love Interest sprites.  It’s the same character, just two different appearances.  It gives you twice the sprites and twice the pin-up CGs.  You can switch back and forth in the settings so you don’t miss anything.  

Q. What do you mean by gacha gayme?  

A.  It’s ‘ethical gacha’ like Balatro or Dragon Sword Awakening. No microtransactions.  One price for the game covers everything.  No need to grind.  The story flow decides odds.  

You must use strategy and customize your team/deck to keep ahead of the enemies.

When you unlock a new dragon/rider you unlock their visual novel story episodes.  When you read them you get credits for the gacha.  When you play the gacha you win new riders/dragons, and cards for your battle deck.  When you play the card battler you earn more credits for the gacha to win more dragons, riders, and cards.  

Each base rider has up to 25 unique cards, and the non-love interest riders each have their own unique special attack.

Q. What’s the story even about?  

A. That’s the best thing about this game and it will make you OBSESSED!! It’s a Game of Thrones level epic spanning multiple nations, class stratifications, and dragon species.  

You learn it all through our hapless MC who barely survived as a runaway factory slave in the slums.  Now he’s a Dragon Rider, one of the few who could bond with a dragon.  His life changes completely…but he’s starting to realize…its not necessarily for the better.

Fortunately, his beloved Dragon Nightscale is always with him.  His other half. His soul-bond.

Q. Anything else I shoud know?  

A.  Yes!  This game has Live2D animated sprites like Dear Monster did, AND Live2D animated CG images!  It’s beautiful!

Rough sketch we’re giving to the animator.
