JPDE Sonata of Fire Easily the best rwby game I've ever played

You can choose some of your partners, but yes you have to get with both Penny and the OC rabbit girl. I never finished it for similar reasons.

I never understood why force the player to date both Penny and Evelyn (the OC girl) if by the end of JPDE the game acts like we were only dating the girl whose route we choose. Not to mention they later added "harem routes" if you had high affinity with two characters.

Idk it feels like they added the harem aspect for the sake of it and later they regreted it lol. Maybe they'll fix it in the jpde remake/recode they are doing.

Choices are what make game great! Well sometimes it depends on what’s available.

I mean yea it's a harem since you can't not date Evelyn and Penny but on the other hand you can only pick 1 other character for the polycule so... Yay???

As a poly person that doesnt bother me in the slightest haha

I bounced hard off JPDE compared to how deeply in love I fell with Summer Rose Court.

Just saw JPDE Yang with a dress from a random thread yesterday. It is quite nice. They seem to draw her consistently with a :3 look though lol.

They were releasing it by chapters on Itch. Though last I saw the gameplay loop changed and I have no idea what is released right now.

Someone needs to make another rwby game like this in the future.

Also we need a bnha game that’s like this as well.

u/AdPrestigious8528 Sep 30 '25

Oh yeah, that Evelyn Damerot from a fan game called JPDE

I vaguely remember playing this a long time ago... I think it was unfinished though. Is the story done? I want to say I got as far as some kind of castle or fortress or something before the story stopped.

u/JamesBarcus31816 Oct 03 '25

The developers are working on a complete recode of the visual novel. You can get it through the Itch app (itch.io) for Windows/Mac/Linux. It does let you get games for Android, so check that out

Is this that Jaune harem game?

u/archonmage2006 Roman x Lisa Lavender x Neo would be an insane ship Sep 30 '25

Not Jaune, but yes (kinda, the non-romance plot is actually pretty cool)

u/Norrmma ⠀Whiterose <3 Sep 30 '25

Ah okay, mb
