First contact turns disastrous when the Galactic Fuchian Empire meets a rival spacefaring species. Kimi, a young cadet, steps into war's chaos, facing ground battles and starship command against enemy forces. Choices shape the story's path, with actions or delays sparking rewards or setbacks.
This RPG adventure blends equipment-driven skills, on-the-go crafting, and gear customization for adaptive combat. Enemies appear on the map for avoidance or preparation, ensuring fights hinge on strategy over levels-bolstered by minor stat gains and proficiency from victories. Players who craft, plan, and swap gear mid-battle thrive in its tactical depth.
“First contact never ends well for the less advanced civilization.”
In the hundred years since the Galactic Fuchian Empire began its interstellar expansion, it has always been the more advanced civilization. Now, for the first time, the Empire has encountered another spacefaring species on par with theirs. After a disastrous first contact, conflict between the two civilizations seems inevitable. Facing an uncertain future, Kimi, a young cadet in the Empire, must navigate the harsh realities of war.

Fuchian Chronicles is a remake of my first game, Space Fox Kimi, which was originally released on Steam in 2018. I have learned a lot about game development since my first release, and wanted to update the game with new graphics, gameplay, and various other improvements before continuing with a sequel. Players who’ve played Space Fox Kimi will notice many similarities in the story with the original, but major story beats have been altered and there will be new plot points as well.
I sincerely hope you enjoy my game, and thank you for supporting me!
in progress...
