Origin Hunt
A downloadable game for Windows

For over 500 years the country of Lenma has known relative peace as a result of the truce with their Origin Mages.
Masters of their elements, Origin Mages are responsible for keeping their monsters away from human populations. In this, the country maintains stability.
But no system is perfect. Now the repercussions of a tragic event years ago are here as one individual begins a final and bloody quest for justice.
Origin Hunt is a story-rich game where choices made have lasting impact. The plot is driven forward by realistic and relatable characters, all with their own unique personalities and voices. A challenging turn-based combat system that offers players an absurd amount of control over their team build; play how YOU want to.

- Turn-based combat with animated enemies and lively action sequences! The battle screen is never still, from party members using unique skills to enemies crushing said party members with AI designed to create a dynamic challenge.
- Achievements, for the completionist inside all of us.
- Day/Night Cycle with in-game effects! From skill bonuses to events to the poor guy wearing sunglasses at night.
- Gear customization. Can't get enough of ridiculous, complex, over-the-top equipment names?

You'll find plenty of that with gear traits through the use of equippable augments. turn an enemy's strength against them with damage-reflecting armour! Attack twice with a Violent weapon!
- Creating crazy weapons not enough? How about crazy armour with customizable stats, traits, and unique set effect bonuses?
- Character Combat Customization: No character is locked into a role. Build your team how you want. All of this without classes; strategic use of skills and equipment give team-building freedom.
- Choices that matter. Choose how to act to your team, and to the general populations. How you interact with others can change how they act towards you!
Misc. Information
- Demo playtime sits around 1-2 hours
- Full game playtime ~60 hours for main story; ~15 hours for optional side content. Coming, um...soon? Q1 to Q2 of 2026(Look, I'm one person with an insanely busy life, and last time I set a hard date for myself, it didn't end well)

Is the game still being made?
Yup! Development has admittedly been slow lately due to life stuff, but I'm carving out more time to work on my game. I've got a new update coming out this week, and I've got the ending written out too!
Sorry I never got around to finishing my playthrough of this one, but I think you've got a pretty solid and entertaining game here. Well done! I look forward to when this will be completed!
I'm loving this game, I found a npc asking for passcodes. Wondering where i might find these passcodes?
Hi Cykron, I'm glad you're enjoying my game so far!
The passcodes for Luna can all be found on the RM forums thread here - the original intent was to make a Discord and put out monthly codes for random items and transmogs, but I got very sidetracked haha. Off the top of my head, two of the codes are 10031998 and 0251380.
Please feel free to leave any feedback here or on the forums! :)
Thank you, this is one of the better games I have played in a while.
Hi! I love this game so far, but I can't for the life of me get past the shadow crystal puzzle. I've been on it for 2 hours ;; please help
Hi Yungiiee, I'm glad you're enjoying my game so far!
I believe you're referring to the second puzzle in the area with the five crystals in the room. You activate them in order according to walls behind them - first the crystal with the one-tile wide wall behind it, then the crystal with the two-tile wide wall behind it. Save the top-right crystal blocking the door for last. Hope that helps!
This helped a lot, I'm glad I didn't just give up and commented here. This has to be one of my favorite rpg maker games :D
Aww, thank you! That really means a lot to me!
Please feel free to leave any feedback you have on my game. Also, if you get stuck at any point, you can try the game's forum page here . I have some really awesome playtesters there who have been a great help.
