I have to admit this is one of the best ARK servers. In discord and ingame are the most amazing friendly and helpful people i think i have ever met on ARK, lots of banter and laughs. I definitely recommend this server to anyone looking for a great time! Admins are always helpful and very friendly.

Maelstrom: A Yaoi Visual Novel may contain content you must be 18+ to view.

Are you 18 years of age or older?

A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux

Disgraced soldier Demetri is exiled to Secren, a dangerous world devoid of women. Earthlings are smaller and weaker than the violent men of Secren. Demetri's only hope for survival is to bond with a strong mate who can love and protect him.

The heterosexual Italian-American refuses to do that. He's not a homophobe, but he won't have gay sex to survive--or will he? Based on the Bestselling novel series by author Yamila Abraham, and illustrated by the internationally renowned art studio Dany&Dany!

Finally, Maelstrom fans have a new format to enjoy this extremely popular story. While mostly linear in presentation, Maelstrom includes three possible love interests for Demetri to choose from, and has a number of pivotal choices to guide the story. Multiple endings can be achieved in every route! Maelstrom is rated 'Mature Players' only. There is no explicit sex or nudity illustrated in the game, however, it is heavily implied, vividly described, and alluded to. Features -

• A 150,000 Word Game with Numerous Endings
• Four Love Interests
• Up to 35 Gorgeous CGs!
• 20 Different Music Tracks
• Your Favorite Characters from the Novels Plus Amazing New Ones!
• Mostly Kinetic Storytelling, with Pivotal Choices Added
• Happily Ever After Endings for Every Route!
• High Stakes Drama Add Authenticity to Demetri's Inevitable Seduction!
• A Sci-Fi Game with a Wild West Motif

Characters

Play as Demetri. He disobeyed an order to try to save the lives of his squadron. They died, and he ended up court martialed. He has 20 years hard labor on Secren and thinks he can get by without becoming someone's boyfriend. It's not like he's a homophobe, he just isn't into dudes--for now. Sadly, having to bond with a man may be the least of Demetri's problems. Planet Secren is a violent and dangerous world. Things become real for him fast, and he doesn't know what he's going to do. Helix was the only love interest in the original novel series (who was named Maelstrom) and is the 'cannon' route here. Helix is the hero you need to survive this horrible planet. How long can you resist this charming mine-lord? Jader isn't evil, he's just a victim of the horrible circumstances on his planet. When he injured his leg he couldn't mine anymore and had to join a biker gang of cannibalistic criminals. He doesn't like what he's become, and takes drugs to numb his pain. He'd become clean and walk away from it all for a guy like Demetri. Zheng Li is the reason Secren is such a terrible planet. He lives in his lofty fortress above all the suffering. For him, miners are just disposable assets. He thinks it's fine for the weak ones to die. That just lets stronger miners take their place. Now that he wants Demetri he'll have to open his eyes to how horrible he let things get.

I bought it on Steam and I loved it very much! I'm a huge fan of all your works, I would have finished it in one day if I didn't hold back a little lol and unexpectedly Zheng was my fave o^o I enjoyed every illustration too!

Thank you so much! I hope you'll consider posting this on a Steam review also! <3

It was cool to see a game adaption of a novel unfortunately to me the dialouge felt somewhat choppy and 'forced' i guess be the words I do not know if that is because you guys were on a budget or a tight schedule but I enjoyed the choice in music and the Illustrations were beautiful. <3

This is sooooo good 😍. I played 2 routes now and I'm in love 😆. Though I did notice that sometimes when I clicked to go forward with the dialogue, it sent me to the 'more games' page. As of I clicked a link, even though I never did.

Thank you! We're glad you like it! We will have that bug fixed in the next build.

I love the game so far im currently on my second route and so the gallery doesn't work do I only need to do screen shots to be able to see all the cg's

Maelstrom Game Mac

We will add the gallery after we release the Sawyer route.

I'm so excited thanks an we'll all the cgs i got be in there if I finished all 3 routes if not im ok with doing it over and thanks again for yet another great game and I can't wait for alpha hole prison to be released

Will there be a nsfw patch? I always enjoy those in your games so it kinda threw me for a loop that it's censored. :(

Maelstrom Game For Mac

Alas, Dany&Dany prefer not to do 18+ art work since it might cause problems at their other job. There won't be patches for games they illustrate.

Aww, that's too bad. Well, It's still an amazing game with a great story and characters, so It's cool. Thanks for replying. :)

Did I just play all 3 routes within one day? ... maybe...

Maelstrom Game Mats

I have to say I like the game. The story isn't bad at all and most of the time the romantic interactions didn't seem to be forced. So Im looking forward to Sawyers route :)

I started with Zheng-Li, went to Helix and finished with Jader. Yeah he is kinda cruel but damn I've never been able to resist an sexy, longhaired asian guy, especially because you rarely have the opportunity to get someone as hot as Zheng... or an asian guy at all... anyway totally my type <3

Still, I noticed some strange things like the blush on Jaders face. I mean it's kinda funny how it starts in the middle of his face with a straight line but I don't think that this is how it's supposed to be.

Oh and I think the skipping moad didn't work properly. At first nothing has skipped no matter which of the two options I had chosen and after a restart everything suddenly skipped in both options.

Thank you! We appreciate your kind words! We'll take a look at this bug.

No voice acting, but you can turn on Text to Speech by pressing v on your keyboard (in Windows). <3
