Geminum Orbis is a roguelike game in the early stages of development.  I would not recommend trying to actually play it right now(although there is a nifty character generator already working).  Work will be continuing heavily over this Christmas season, with a new alpha release hoped for before my next semester of university begins.

-Not only myriad possible endings(which you determine as you play), but also myriad beginnings.  The story is different every time, as is the world.
-Travel between two worlds, Earth and Sildora.  Explore your house(and later, your hometown), and then enter(or re-enter) the dungeon on Sildora.
-An in-depth story based in an ever-growing fictional universe.
-The ability to have a very meaningful impact on the world around you.
-A family tree, complete with siblings, a spouse, etc.(the player's family is generated randomly upon beginning a new game, so YMMV)
-The chance to decide what kind of person you are going to be.  Make a great many decisions throughout your life, determining the fate of your family, friends, the world, and yourself.
-Rich NPC interactions, and the ability to form lasting relationships with NPCs.
-Monsters and foes that are born in the game world and whose races are subject to natural selection.
-Much, much more!
