Odyssey of Gianna: Venture Forth
A downloadable game
NOTE: You must own the Odyssey of Gianna base game (https://vhiel.itch.io/odyssey-of-gianna) and download the newest version (4.0) in order to play the new content in this expansion!
The breakout H-RPG hit Odyssey of Gianna gets a major expansion!
Venture Forth adds the following to the already-expansive Gianna experience:
- A brand new party member with a unique base class, interactions, and more!
- Three new major areas to explore: the Mage's University of Gianna, the island nation of Valua, and the Dwarf-ruled Northern Underground!
- Three new major dungeons with new enemies and bosses!
- 11 new status conditions, ranging from intriguing elemental infusions like Balloon and Overload to humiliating new status-classes like the Fellaccia!
- New Bad End cutscenes and a new Final End route to end the odyssey on a high note!
- New Team Chat feature! As you explore, your party members will have short scenes together, making them feel more vibrant than ever!
- New skills, items, equipment, NPCs, sidequests, and more!

I do not know how to fix a member from a wine tap. The journal says “the subject's associated magitek panel” but I have no idea of that.
Hey, I am getting a black screen if I fight Giorgia in the secret room after I beat the other girl in that same room. I can open the menu but can't move or leave the room. Looks like a bug to me
Worked around that only by reloading a save until she went for the guard instead, then I discovered another bug: I couldn't move after the bed end until I teleported somewhere else (and the villa was reset, but not fully, the guard-key doors were still open so I just went to the harder option of the boss fight straight away)
Hello. I am trying to find the new party member and I think that she is in Villa da Vici. How do I free her and add her to my team?
Hey I think I've discovered a fairly big bug that has actually prevented me from progressing as of now.
Apparently, after the Villa infiltration, if you happen to save at one of the one-time-use restoration points, it puts the game back into the state of infiltrating and won't let you save on that file again.
This wouldn't be too big of an issue... if I wasn't a bit dumb and only used 1 save file. Since I did, and I saved over it with that one use point, I have broken the save feature and can't anymore. Great work with the whole rest of the game otherwise.
The endless loop bug fixed in 4.1 does not seem to be fixed. :(
Ah well. Excellent game, I can wait.
Sorry about that! There were a few more cases of that I hadn't caught, but that bug should be completely fixed in the newest release, 1.3.
Awesome, thank you.
I had this game on DLsite too but I guess that version's long dead :p
Yeah, sorry about that, DLSite wanted me to comply with Japanese censor laws and I did, but they rejected the game without telling me what image(s) didn't meet the requirements, so I was unable to update the game without that feedback. Apologies!
Steam version coming or can this be applied to the steam version?
I'm currently waiting on Valve's review process to complete but yes, it's coming to Steam! It can't be applied to the Steam data yet, however, as that version is on 3.5 instead of 4.0 currently.
I had actually come back here to talk about bugs I had found. But its been so long since I had purchased, I found that I'm a full version behind AND there's now DLC. Talk about a surprise. I'm choosing to believe that the bugs have been fixed, but I'll keep an eye out for them just in case.
Thank you for keeping an eye out! You can comment here if you like, or you can stop by the Discord server where there's a dedicated bug reporting forum.
No problem! I'll be honest, I should have known earlier that the DLC is out since the Runes of Pandemonium team promoted it on their devblog, and I follow that closely.
How do you extract the DLC to the main game
There should be instructions on the download page, but I'll copy and paste them:
TO INSTALL:
1. Download "Odyssey of Gianna Venture Forth.rar."
2. Use an archive manager program, such as WinRar to extract the files.
3. Extract to the "Odyssey of Gianna" folder. When asked to overwrite files, say YES to all of them.
4. Run "Odyssey of Gianna Launcher.exe" from that folder.
If the installation was successful, the title screen should have a new design and the game's window name should say "Odyssey of Gianna: Venture Forth" plus the version number and a letter representing your chosen difficulty setting. (It may show an incorrect name for a moment; wait and it should correct itself.)
I was struggling with step three. Im new to computers so im kinda dumb.
quick question, given some of the new lore dropped in the new areas will this be updated with new content down the line?
Not exactly, RPG Maker is actually crashing under Gianna's weight, so the current plan is to take what would have been DLCs 2 and 3 and turn them into Odyssey of Gianna 2 eventually.
Cool, game is awesome and would definitely like to see more of this world.
Thank you very much~!
i hope it gets put on steam.. i have the game on steam already
Sorry about that! I've run into some issues with Valve's review process. I wrote some more info on it here: https://vhiel.itch.io/venture-forth/devlog/723543/odyssey-of-gianna-venture-fort...
what about the DLC could even cause valve to not wanna put it on steam? lemme tell you, whatever it is, it can't be worse than some of the games that actually are up on steam, probably even now!
Nothing could be worse than this horrid mess that somehow steam allows to still be on there: View at your own peril!!
I mean, I had bought the game on steam, but I almost felt bad paying ten dollars? This game is worth more. So buying it again just to buy the DLC comes out to like 25 dollars total. I'm fine with paying that much for this game.
Aw, thank you very much!! I hope the DLC is good enough to live up to that!
Is there like a certain point you need to get to in order to access dlc?
Not exactly, there are three main areas spread around the map. One is actually right where you start!
is this stand alone or with the base game?
You'll need to have the base game in the new 4.0 update in order to play this content. https://vhiel.itch.io/odyssey-of-gianna
is there any like bundle for both?
Not yet, though the base game is currently on sale!
Omg it's finally here!! Absolutely adored the base game and I've been checking the discord every week since I heard about the update.
Huge props for all the time and effort you've put into this amazing game Vhiel. Looking forward to starting a new save with the DLC!
Thank you so much for the kind words! I hope it manages to meet your expectations!
Will it be available through steam like the base game?
Not currently, unfortunately, but I'm expecting Valve to finish reviewing the game within the first week of May. I'll also send you a Steam key if you buy the game here and send me a message on Discord, you can read about it here: https://vhiel.itch.io/venture-forth/devlog/723543/odyssey-of-gianna-venture-fort...
WOAHHH! Can't wait for it. I really love OoG. With this dlc it will be my 4rth playtrough. Thank you for your work^^
Ah, that's great to hear~! Thank you for playing, I think you'll like what Venture Forth adds!
I wanted to make a DLC for this game but I didn't want to like jump into yet until I knew there was no DLC for the future. But now, as soon as this DLC comes out, I will be able to add this to the mod and really expand on it.
That's exciting to hear!! If you had any questions about modding or wanted to see what other modders are working on for the game, feel free to stop by the Discord and chat with them! https://discord.gg/B5JwPBa
new partymember? hope its vemix... it kinda sucks they just get turned into in item to be sold... i mean the way vemix fights in their boss fight would be neat to see translated to the players side too.
I love this game so so much!
Thank you~! I hope you'll enjoy Venture Forth just as much!
Yes i love your games!
Thank you very much~!
when is the release date? I need to set it up and have spare time to play this
Not set quite yet, but I'm expecting it to be done before the end of April!
this look nice
Thank you~!
i did notice when i clicked view all this said 5$ do people who own the base game need to buy the expansion to play it or no?
Yep! It's essentially DLC, so that's the pricetag for it.
well once i have a gift card to use i will definitely get it
