Luminary Protocol v0.36

What is Luminary Protocol?

Luminary Protocol is an adult Isekai visual novel with a dark, unfolding narrative. You, along with others, are torn from your reality and thrown into Lumis—a dangerous, magic-filled copy of Earth ruled by enigmatic gods and demons.

The story begins with familiar genre tropes but quickly descends into a desperate, life-or-death struggle. Expect a mature story featuring graphic violence, sex, nudity, adult themes, and substance use.

Explore a Shifting World

The world of Lumis is unstable. Chunks of other worlds are regularly transported there, merging with the landscape. This phenomenon, known as a 'Convergence,' brings new creatures, peoples, and technologies, offering unique regions to explore beyond the core world.

Your Path Through the Story

The game follows a linear main story, but your choices matter.

• Flavour Choices: Most decisions will change your immediate experience and perspective on events, rather than branching the main plot.
• Key Events: Rare, pivotal choices will have a significant and lasting impact on the story's outcome.
• Alignment System: Your actions will align you with Order, Chaos, or Balance. I consider the 'Balance' route to be the canon path through the narrative.

A Note on Development & AI

This project would not exist without the use of AI tools for asset creation, as I don't have the budget to hire artists. This allows me, as an amateur solo developer, to pair my writing with the visuals needed to bring the world of Lumis to life.

The Road Ahead: My goal is to release a new chapter/update every month. Your support will help me stick to this schedule and increase the quality and amount of content in each release. I intend to release updates as at least one fully complete “adventure”.  Alongside that, I hope to include some smaller scenes, where you get to spend down time or go on other adventures with specific characters. So far each monthly update has typically been around 12,000 words.
