Vritra, Dragon King of the Asura – Before the internal fighting of the Deva, there were many families of the old bloodlines similar to each other. The Asura were one of those lines. They were most like the Deva in strength and technique but their ideologies were completely at odds. Vritra was a ruler who did not wish control over his people. Asura grew independent of each other and wished to integrate with humanity when they left the Rift. The Deva used the actions of a few of the wilder Asura to condemn the rest and consorted with the Anunnaki and Titans to destroy them. In an effort to save his people, Vrtira surrendered to the Deva. He knew his people stood no chance because they were not united under one cause. The Deva created a massive dimensional tare underground to house the most dangerous prison that ever existed and sealed all the Asura there for the rest of eternity. The Asura now knew the reality of their weakness from being such independent souls and if they were ever to get their chance again, they would unite under Vritra and put the Deva down for good.

Its actually much broader then that.

It is based on Kushyte, Kemetic, Ethiopian, Canaanite, Phoenician, Minoan, Greek, Akkadian(Mesopotamian), and Hindu mythologies and cultures.

The first chapter which is this game takes place in neither. It is a God's Proving Ground where Ra and his companions must prove themselves worthy enough to reign over humans in the first place. How we incorporate all these pantheons and mythologies into one story with no holes is by tying everything with the ancient alien theory and setting very specific rules that no one can surpass.

dope...

Hate to go off topic, but how'd Aurion do?

They lost their media coverage and lost steam

On account of how I stopped hearing about it...I imagine.

What are their future plans? Got no PC to buy the game.

The Aurion thread is here: http://www.thecoli.com/threads/auri...action-rpg-made-by-cameroonians.227900/page-4

But they are porting the game to Linux and Mac. It probably won't show up on consoles.

And here is the Steamspy page for an idea of how many people on Steam own it: http://steamspy.com/app/368080

• Love Triangle
• Comic Art Style
• Quest and Random Events
• Dark Humor

Story Synopsis
Black Sands: Legends of the Rift is a story about the Demi-God Ra, before he becomes the first Pharaoh of Kemet. It takes place in a dimensional tear where he and his kin are raised to be champions for humanity and one day defeat the ancient gods who currently rule the world through fear and slavery. Both the old gods and the new were created by Nun, an alien from the Sirius star system, who came here on a secret mission many millennia ago. The ancient gods who currently rule the world are the Titans, Deva, and Anunnaki.

You will be playing as Ra. Your job is to lead other historical figures to victory in the dangerous trials of the Rift while uncovering ancient secrets and mastering physical and psychological strengths. Decisions like who is capable of completing a mission, leading through fear or honor, building a true relationship with the female lead, using forbidden powers, betraying your allies, are all yours to make. It is not a simple task to be a leader, not at all. But it is something that will be wildly entertaining and inspirational.

Black Sands




I'm not a visual novel player, but I might try it because the artwork is good.I'm a little bit concerned about "Ancient Aliens" being involved in the storyline so if it tries to downgrade black history in anyway, uninstall the game. I haven't played it so I have no clue if it has an "agenda".
