The battle system should feel familiar to anyone who has played SRPGs before, in particular Luminous Arc. Also, the game does have some pretty art and the characters are not bad themselves. It's cliche for a reason, it's because it works and with RPGs that have simple, iconic storylines being few and far between these days, something this old school is a nice change of pace. Yes it is a bit cliche with a hero suffering from Amnesia and his idealic home town being destroyed by the villains, but given Image Epoch's track record this is about in line with what they usually do, and it's not a bad way to open a game. Storywise it's not a bad way to start a game. It's at this point that the army rolls in, Hilda and her comrade Dante (NO not that Dante) retreat, and Alto and Lisette are taken captive by the army. With everyone gone, Alto and Lisette try to fight Hilda but ultimately fail, that is until Lisette does a magical girl transformation and becomes a Witch herself. Eventually Alto meets a young woman who is apparently singing and later finds out that she is actually a witch named Hilda and the next day Hilda comes to their town and turns everything and every ONE into crystal save for Alto and Lisette. We also learn that this world once worshiped a goddess who lived on the moon and after punishing humans for their lack of faith, humanity now no longer has the ability to sing. As the game starts we are introduced to the game's protagonist Alto, a youth with no memories beyond 3 years ago when he was found by his current foster family, the mother Rosa and her daughter Lisette. The Demo seems to run through the first few story events and battles of the game. Fortunately, Stella Glow was able to be completed either before the Bankruptcy or after through the efforts of Stella Glow's Publisher SEGA, and thanks to Atlus we in the west are going to see this game for the 3DS in another two weeks, but how is the game? Well let's check out the Demo.

Image Epoch finally declared Bankruptcy in May and now the company is no more. Image Epoch's CEO Ryoei Mikage went missing around April and rumors of Image Epoch's poor state started to circulate. Unfortunately, things didn't turn out too well for the company. Stella Glow was to be the project that marked Image Epoch's 10th Anniversary. Image Epoch was a smaller RPG developer that started in 2005 and is most well known for games like Luminous Arc, a SRPG with a plot revolving around witches, and Arc Rise Fantasia, an interesting RPG for the Wii with a unique battle system that probably needed a bit more tweaking. This week I'm tackling Stella Glow, the last game made by Image Epoch, for those who don't know a little back story. ANYWAY, This week I'm doing another DEMO-lition where I give a run down on a Demo I've played recently on an upcoming game and share my thoughts on the game and the Demo itself. I just started playing Trails in the Sky and it's surprising how easy it is to start playing it and then forget how long you've been playing it, especially when you are trying to find a good place to stop.
