JPDE – Sonata of Fire [v4.6] By JPDE/Meinos Kaen

JPDE/Meinos Kaen Games released a new game called JPDE – Sonata of Fire and the version is 4.6. The game’s story is about is a fan-made visual novel created by Meinos Kaen. It is based in the world of RWBY, a popular web series created by Rooster Teeth. You are David di Kabegis, a strange newcomer to the world of Remnant who arrives through meteoric crash landing. Upon first awakening, with a dreadful case of amnesia, he encounters Penny Polendina, and from there, his adventure kicks off as he attends the notable Beacon Academy to train as a Huntsman with combat skills he is unaware of ever obtaining. The team is rounded out by their leader, Jacqueline B. Ivory, and Evelyn “Carrots” Damerot.​

Game Version Changelog:

Hello thar, Meinos Kaen here… And the Road to Emerald begins.

• What that means? It means that this is the first of the updates which will bring us to JPDE 5.0, which will include Emerald’s Custom Ending and bring Sonata of Fire ever so close to its FINAL FORM.
• This is a first step! This update, 4.6, contains a LOT of bug fixes -thank you, Renpy god, for the constant updates that make life so much easier!- and a much requested feature: YOU CAN NOW SKIP ALL THE BATTLE CONTENT IN THE GAME WITHOUT COMPROMISING THE STORY!
• That’s right! While we are reworking and updating the battle system to something more humane, helped by the experience we’ve gained in developing JPDE2 [which is A DIRECT SEQUEL TO JPDE1, it seems that a lot of people were confused about that!] you will now be able to skip everything, making repeated plays much quicker! Right now, you can only choose to battle or not battle at the beginning of the game but that will also disappear once the new battle system is in place.
• More features are coming! A fully functional gallery, music player, and MORE! JPDE2 may be the future, but JPDE1 is not done just yet!
• Meinos Kaen

(2023-05-06) v4.4

Hello thar, Meinos Kaen here… And it’s finally complete.

With the addition of Blake Belladonna Team RWBY, in its entirety, now has a custom ending!

Alongside the fact that the battle system is being revamped and that we’re running out of characters to nominate for the Supporters Polls, this release kind of signals the end of an era… From now on, updates for JPDE will be character focused: Supporters on Patreon and Ko-Fi will vote on which character to focus on next. After that character has had their content fully realized, we will then move to the next one.

Some big changes are coming for JPDE2 – Adagio of Darkness, too. If you’ve joined the Discord Community of Team JPDE you might already have an idea as to what those changes might be. If not, I invite you to join 😀 Also because it’s the only place where you can report bugs of any kind~

Also, in case you haven’t seen it, we’ve announced the title of our very first completely original game: GalaxiA! You can find the game’s own website right here 😀

Stay tuned for more information and I wish you a great month of May!

(2023-02-11) v4.3

Hello thar, Meinos Kaen here… And 2023 is our year!

So many updates are coming for JPDE – Sonata of Fire and all the other concepts. Sonata of Fire, in particular, is approaching what we could call its final form. It’s shedding a lot of old trappings and stuff that has remained in there for too long, or been broken for too long. That is on top of all the new content you’ll keep on getting, of course.

And to start it off with a bang…!

WHAT’S NEW IN SONATA OF FIRE 4.3?

Neon Katt (2nd Event) – The faunus from Atlas is back, baby! And she’s introducing David to a brand new world… And a lot of lore. I did not expect to write this much stuff lore-wise in this date but I think the writing I’m doing for JPDE2 seeped in…

(2022-12-11) v4.20.1

WHAT’S NEW IN SONATA OF FIRE 4.20?

Professor Peach (2nd Event) – Rasnec has worked on this from beginning to end, with only minimal editing from me and Beard… So hope you’re ready to lay into him as you would me ;D

Penny’s Cheongsang Outfit, Evelyn’s Maid Costume – As it says on the tin… Remember that once you finish the game for the first time, you’re able to activate costume changes even from the beginning of the game 

New and Updated Voice Lines – Magnificent Beard keeps on delivering, and so do our voice actors 

Amber Dreamscape – Ciel Soleil Episode – This should have come out before Halloween… It didn’t. But I hope that even if it’s out of season, you’ll like it all the same. You may notice that the lewd doesn’t have super-smooth animations this time but… Something else. 

 Hope you enjoy anyway~

That’s it for this release, everyone! I will see you in the next one in 2023… With Blake’s dance event and custom ending.
