Shards Of Perihelion (REOPENED)

Shards Of Perihelion (REOPENED)

Project Overview


How did this project come into existence? 

Back in November of 2016, I wanted to make a game for a community I liked. Slowly, over time, things happened, and the project grew bigger. Since then, the project became more. It became its own thing, and since then, we've been working our hardest on the project.

What IS Shards Of Perihelion about?

After the Catalyst Comet smashes, and a darkness having lurked for millenia is released, its up to Lucien and Gen, a former mercenary and a freedom fighter to gather their teams, uncover the truth behind the chaos caused by the gods, the war that was caused between the Rebellion and Solace, and end the conflict once and for all.

What do I need to know about the project?

First off, I will be handling auditions for VAs and tasks for all other roles after the deadline

Secondly, this project is primarily a revshare project.

What do I do for my roles?

Artists: I have a few tasks for artists, to be specific, roles such as Character Design, Full Body Art, Promo Art, etc.
Musicians: I will hand out tasks when necessary, normally saying what I want the song to sound like, as well as providing a reference.

Voice Actors: As a voice actor, you will be assigned a role/assigned roles, and when lines are finished, they will be sent to you. Please try to audition for at least 2 characters. 

Once you have applied, please join the discord (Even if you aren't just come join and check it out too): https://discord.gg/eTDnp8n (THIS IS REQUIRED.)

UPDATE (15/02/2020)

So I should probably say something:

This isn't the last time it'll be re-opened. There's a few more roles left, and after that, I have 4 major content updates I'll be adding to the game.

These will all have new characters in them, meaning we'd need more VAs. I'd prefer not to reveal anything about these right now, but I'll put an update out for when each of them is done.

Granted, even with my current development pace, that won't be for a while... ;-;

So just know that even if you don't get cast for this specific part of the project, more parts are likely to open in the future.

  • Added 3 new characters.

    I've added the following roles: - Emi - Alain - Brody These 3 were already cast on the last one, but people don't seem to realise that you have to stay in touch. And as such, they got removed from the team. SO their roles are back up for someone else to be cast as them.

[IGNORE THE BUDGET DETAILS, THEY AREN'T ACCURATE] 


Shadow is a friend of Lucien who you meet in Chapter 7. Open and kind, he's faced a lot of hardships in his life due to judgement from him being born with a birth defect. He always tries his best to help, but also hopes that he can one day lay peacefully and have some rest. Treasures each bond he makes with people. 


Shadow has quite a neutral tone, with a bit of a light side to his voice. He can be easily excited in certain situations, but otherwise, he remains calm and collected. 



  • [excited] Lucien! It's been so long!

  • [ecstatic] I- is this, a GIANT MECHA FIGHT?! I thought those things only happened in anime!

  • [slightly mad] What are you saying?! This is totally an anime mecha fight! How can you be that out of touch to not realize that?!

Suriah is one of the main villains of Perihelion, being the leader of the Reformed Army.

Suriah is the father of Kairi, and the adoptive father of Alain and Zirco. He believes the deities to be false prophets; fear-mongering rats who should all burn, as he puts it.


His voice should be deep and imposing, yet calm and refined. However, when he gets incredibly mad, switch it to a growly kind of voice, keeping the same deep and imposing tone.

  • [livid] You wretched scum! I will tear your limbs from your body, and render you helpless against me! Bow down before me, you worthless worm!

  •  [serious] There isn’t long left. I have to make sure that everything and everyone is evacuated from here.

  •  [slowly getting frustrated] Do not waste my time. Are all these “important” things so trivial?
