Air Buddies Budderball

Utopian System

"Mana to breathe, mana to eat, mana to fucking live," Inhale: -0.001 MP… oops! You're out of mana points. (Pay-to-breathe RPG.) Humanity's last walled stronghold. _____ In the world Elio lives, every gasp of air comes at a price. A floating indestructible book for every human, a magical system that turns survival into a pay-to-breathe RPG. Here, poverty isn't just being broke, it's choking. Surrounded by barren land and a sea of monsters on top of it (No water, just literal monsters), each day is a suffocating dance of survival, a balancing act between mana for air and mana for food. In this economy, holding your breath isn't just a game, it's a retirement plan. Driven by desperation (and the city's miserly rulers that don’t cut anyone a break), Elio dives into the Book System’s trials to save his family. Along the way, he unlocks powers he didn’t ask for and starts to figure out... Who he really is. Immerse yourself in an adventure where one young man's stubborn refusal to become a statistic could spark a revolution. Who knew being a pain in the system's rear could change the world? Because in Elio's world, breathing is just the beginning of the revolution and... he's gasping for change. But hey, who said saving the world had to be all doom and gloom? Join Elio as he kicks monster butt, uncovers ancient secrets, and maybe, just maybe, figures out how to grow a tree or two along the way. __________ Warning: May contain traces of world domination, an unhealthy obsession with the periodic table, damage points, progression math, and yes, even a sprinkle of that old "power of friendship" magic. Because sometimes, you need a buddy to help you remember which element does what or even help you calculate those sweet, sweet stats. A quick heads-up: Despite what the cover might suggest, this isn’t a hack-and-slash adventure. Think more along the lines of a turn-based RPG, where strategy and choices matter as much as action. Get ready for a different kind of challenge! If you want to know more about the cover: Yep, that's our first FL crying and crossing the transparent barrier straight into a pixelated, indistinguishable sea of monsters. Because why not mix emotions with chaos? She's crazy like that! (Not really... or is she?) Discord to check the visuals: https://discord.gg/W3CjfC2cw4 I’m still working on it in the little moments I find between writing, editing, making more character images, etc. Little by little, we’ll have a Poked... uh, a full SummonDex! Meanwhile, you can check out the ones on Fandom with their... funny descriptions? Or at least I hope so... orz __________ Happy New Year! I just wanted to take a moment to express my heartfelt gratitude for all your incredible support. This journey wouldn’t be the same without each of you, and I’m beyond thankful to have you here. May this new year bring you joy, success, and all the things you’re hoping for. Here’s to a brighter future! Thank you for being part of this story. Cheers to 2025! Thank you so much for reading!

A Universe Away: Constellation of Lyra

-- Synopsis: -- Inside the infinite darkness of the universe, through the black void that reaches the outskirts of the galaxy, a star is born, and is starting to shine dazzlingly. In the heart of a unique Japanese-American school, Airi and Kenzui, two girls with opposite personalities, have been best friends since childhood. Airi, the studious and reserved one, contrasts sharply with Kenzui, the rebellious and adventurous spirit. Despite their differences, they navigate the complexities of teenage life together, until a mysterious falling out threatens to tear them apart. When Kenzui's behavior takes a sudden turn for the worse, Airi is left reeling. Furious with her parents, Kenzui dives headfirst into her old ways, engaging in drinking, smoking, and risky behavior reminiscent of their high school days. Worried for her friend's safety, Airi takes it upon herself to intervene, determined to prevent Kenzui from spiraling out of control. But as their friendship strains under the weight of Kenzui's rebellion, Kenzui explains to Airi about her revelation: a mysterious pill. Airi, intrigued by the possibilities—and desperate to distract herself from the rift between her and Kenzui—Airi suggests they investigate further. United by a shared history and a deep bond, Airi and Kenzui embark on a journey to uncover the truth behind the mysterious pill and the secrets their parents have kept hidden away from them. Along the way, they encounter danger, betrayal, and unexpected allies, as they delve deeper into a world of intrigue and deception. -- Acts: -- { Act #001 :: Possessors Vis, Vega } Vega, the 5th deity -- Notes: -- Not yet completed (will keep updating every 1-2 weeks) [!] Swearing [!] Possible sexual/inappropriate terms mentioned [!] Substance use
