BlueSkies 3 is a 2D Turn-based JRPG game featuring a radiant, magical fantasy atmosphere that is story-driven. BlueSkies 3 has a different story on its own (not directly a sequel), still, it features the same world as the original free games BlueSkies 1 and BlueSkies 2. There won't be any plot-related confusion if you immediately played BlueSkies 3 though!

In the world of Vyen, magic is abundant all around. Witches and Warlocks run the world. Some use magic for the good of Vyen, and some use it as a weapon to harm and cause destruction. Despite this obvious divide between the people, the recent announcement of the "Arcane Mastery Tournament" held by both the Chancellor of the Holy Order and the King of the Xmeilian Empire, has captured the interests of every magic-user around the world. The "Arcane Mastery Tournament" is an event where Witches and Warlocks all around the world gather to compete and rise as the special "Arcane Guardians" of the Xmeilian Empire. Some join to prove their prowess in magic in front of the whole world, seeking to claim victory, while some join content with the thought of having a platform for themselves and their magic, regardless if they'll win the competition or not. Could this tournament simply be a competition between the greats, Or could this be a catalyst for something grand? Dare I say, something sinister?

The story revolves around a young Oracle named Candace Aethelmay, who lives in Esuna Town. Candace and her friends have decided upon going on an adventure to join the "Arcane Mastery Tournament." Along the way, the young witches will encounter challenges, meet new friends, and they will further hone their skills in magic. But little do they know; that this journey is going to lead to something much bigger that involves the fate of Vyen.

Hi everyone! Here's a BlueSkies 3 Announcement Trailer. Showcasing both the game's environments, plot, and gameplay. Inspired by classic JRPGs that we all loved such as the Final Fantasy series. Featuring a magical fantasy world with mysteries to uncover. Special thanks to Berry B for his amazing financial contribution to my games and his support, which made many of my game's assets possible.

 
It's finally approved! BlueSkies 3 Steam store is now up! I am currently developing this game and hope to see it to its completion soon!
