Advance Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Waahh~~~! Tomorrow is Christmas Day already? Time sure flew by. I can't believe this year is about to end. Thinking back I was pretty sure I would've finished Conspiracy by Spring 2015, but well... We all know how it went. - *hides in shame* - 
What I'm most surprised about is that this blog continued functioning, me updating utter senseless posts and those few readers visiting Strange Chemistry. I'm truly grateful to you all! (-̩̩̩-̩̩̩-̩̩̩-̩̩̩-̩̩̩___-̩̩̩-̩̩̩-̩̩̩-̩̩̩-̩̩̩)
That's why for some time now I've been visiting different free website discovering which I'll be most comfortable with. Learned basic HTML and CSS styling along the way - I admit I'm still lacking some experience in web creation. - resulting in me managing to create at least the basic things for a quasi decent blog. There's still a looong way to go and until then please continue visiting Strange Chemistry!

About These Days

Tadaa~~~! This is what the new style for Black Lotus is like!

I'm really waaay behind my self-pointed schedule so I'll try cover them up during winter break. Unfortunately these days I have to held back my all-nighter jobs since it's showing some horrible side-effects xD So in the meantime I won't be working past 1 a.m. - It sucks alright! :<  -
Above all else I'm proud about how much I improved my hair coloring. Yey! Improvements!
Nope. I'm not boasting just happy. ^^

Game Proposal

It's was time! I was starting to wonder wither if it was better for me to quit. Mood swings! How much I hate it! One moment you're excessively hard-working with a positive outlook on life and the next you're there sulking about how miserable you have become. \(●o○;)ノ To make matters worse I've been seeing sad movies on tv around lately. What the heck?!
So, while my artistic mood has gone off somewhere I was in constant dilemma with my future projects and if it was still worth it to continue making Visual Novels. Let's face it, I know most of you think I'm all words and no deed! Worse is I hardly even completed a single decent game! -Bus Stop was something which was done in two weeks-
So you know what? I came to a conclusion. I will present an idea and recruit trustworthy people willing to work with me free. If there ever comes a moment I ever go in gloom mood for a year again I will leave them the project with the hope that they will make a decent game out of it.
How does that sound? Any thoughts about it? I wanna hear all your opinions.

So Much for Productive Week

Ugh... I start thinking my luck isn't on my highest point this month. Been reeeeally unproductive and I just realized only now that Christmas is near!!!
Weather's getting colder here it's making me drowsy. Can't wait for winter vacations to stay in my warm bed all day, while having my long awaited Dramatical Murder Marathon! Yes! I've waited this long just so I can watch the entire series without having to wait for the next update. ੧| ⊗ ▾ ⊗ |୨
Anyway I got piled up with lots of commissions mixed together with some affairs in real life. How awesome is that? - *laughs madly*-
I apologize for not posting anything but ever since my hell of a week ended I now find myself sleepy around 1 a.m. which usually doesn't occur since I'm too engulf on working to even notice how much time passed. It's both a good and bad thing; good because it means more sleep for me and bad because it's impossible for me to continue working while dozing off from time to time in front of the computer screen. - I can't stand my drool-y face -
Speaking of work, I previously anticipated a short visual novel which I finally decided to concentrate on among my old archives and new ones. All I'm going to tell you for now is that the temporary title starts with E. and E. Yep. Two words. ~(⁰▿⁰)~

Rainy Days Again...

  First of all, I'm finally glad I made it through 2 weeks of hell! I'm surprise as well since it was the first time I entirely ignored anime & manga just to concentrate in real life. I was on my limit as well; mentally and physically speaking but looks like it will take a while before another damn busy week presents itself again. Lucky me~~~!
  Again I want to assure you I'm still on Black Lotus Project! In fact I'm quite behind my planned schedule and I should start working on Christmas and New Year special as well. If I was complaining about my shortage of work as a character sprite artist, now I'm complaining for having so much work accumulated.
  Change of plans, I better get those second version of sprites finish soon. As for Strange Chemistry's site I think it will still take some time but I'm hoping to finish working on it soon! -That is if I find a decent free website platform- 
Anyway I'm in the mode for making short strips for Black Lotus characters!
See you soon 

Friday, November 28, 2014

Finally a Post!

I haven't written much at all this month! It's been like forever. (๑-﹏-๑) This week has been like hell! Luckily I made it through the week, mentally unstable but still alive. I don't know about next week though... It's going to be a tough until next Friday. Ahh~~~ Sooooo busy!!!
I admit it's frustrating that I can't work much for the game, we've also been delaying the demo because of me! (ᗒᗩᗕ)՞
Changing topics, I finally decided to make another Visual Novel project after putting a sea of ideas aside. I'm attempting to write the script for it whenever I can at the moment and once I finish my big pile of things to do for Black Lotus, I'll start working on it. I'll fill you more information about it in the future. ☆*・゜゚・*(^O^)/*・゜゚・*☆ 
 Here's another sketches from my messy art files. Haha.. (´∀`)

Contemplating....10

I tried writing some post but really couldn't think of what to say... During these days new ideas for short visual novels assaulted me again along with many attempts of sketching backgrounds, using of course perspective, with which I have constant love-hate relationship - Haha -
Temperature is starting to get so cold that I'm lazy waking up, or rather I don't even bother trying to get up. Cold nights makes it hard for me to work on nighttime since I end up sleeping without even noticing it.
I'm still working on Black Lotus though, so no worries! I'll try posting something decent as soon as I can.

Friday, November 14, 2014

Things to do....

Presenting you my current list of things to do for Black Lotus...

 Finish chibi version 2/8
 Make first omake
Redo sprite lineart 0/10
 Complete expression for complete version

Tuesday, November 11, 2014

Bon soir!

Sorry if I haven't posted anything since November 8th, been kind of busy between projects and real life situations. I'm just glad the weather here is getting better now - hoping it lasts longer- than the previous days.
What to say? I finished the sprites needed for the demo. Still haven't wrote a single darn thing on my game's script. I'm getting into webcomics. I've been dozing off at school. Nothing new... - LOL xD -
Unfortunately, I realized I've been spending a lot of money though I rarely go out this month. Why so? I haven't even bought a single manga for 5 months now! I feel so poor. 。゚(゚´Д`゚)゚。 Ahahaha...
How can one be broke in the middle of the month of November I have no idea hahah... I just feel so stupid. 
Yesterday while I was rummaging trough my old stuff I found a huge pile of notebooks, all full of my past drawings and old characters. Sure brought back some old memories. Thinking about it now, I guess I did improve quite a lot. Not to mention my males. xD 
My perseverance in ulterior improvement is still en cours though!
By reading this post I bet you're thinking :" What the hell she keeps complaining for? Get a topic." Sorry, sorry. It's one of those days I have nothing decent to write and end up writing crappy nonsense things.
On the bright side, this is the first long senseless post I've written after a long time! (~‾⌣‾)~


Nope these aren't my old works! You'll never ever see them! Hahahaha  (。-`ω´-)

I should really reprise buying blank paged notebooks... Kind of hard to find one though :<

About to Finish 2nd Set!

I'm about to finish the second sprites sets' expression for the demo! Working on Ardalain and later on I'll have to finish only Eren's and Keith's, once I finish these I'll temporarily take a break for some days so I can work on my designs which I'll be submitting to a contest within November 25th.
Then I'll reprise working again on Black Lotus. I still have to correct some errors and change the lineart for the game considering how thick it is but before that I'll have to finish the chibi versions for character profile. -Ahh...So many things and I only have one life. Hahaha...-
Knowing that Pocoscon is doing her best, I'm motivated to finish this project as well and not to give up on it.
By the way, I'm happy to announce that I might probably stop using this blog for Strange Chemistry since I discovered a free site creator online. Which means updates and posts in far future will be present there containing some blog links for future Visual Novel projects status. You can try taking a look at here. It's still under construction though. In the meantime thank you very much to all those visiting this blog of mine. :)

Happy Halloween!

Today is the last day of October for this year 2014! How will you be spending the night?
I'm going to watch some asian horror movies which will surely make it hard for me to sleep tonight but who cares? xD 
My best antidote is to watch a good comedy, although terrifying scenes will keep haunting me for days. Hahaha...
If I end up staying awake all night I can at least work on the art part for the project, still have a lot things to do and I'm really looking forward on playing the demo. Odd right? :)

I should get back writing Conspiracy sometimes, but without the right humor it's pretty hard to write fluffy fluffy things... ღゝ◡╹)ノ♡
I also want to work on a short visual novel with few choices and image filled story, currently the one I'd love to start is mixing up with another story I had in mind. So for now, I'm trying to give back its original concept and write the script first just to be sure it finishes.
I'm really thankful to all of you who keep up with me. :D I'll definitely finish Conspiracy!!!

Finished Halloween Promo

Finished Halloween Promo for Black Lotus just now. Can't believe I finished it one day prior to originally planned. -Does it means I'm getting faster in artworks?-
  I'm going to post it on LSF on Halloween or the night before to fit the work for the theme. Seeing the results, I'm glad my coloring has improved. I must continue working on male characters more and human poses though, because even I get the feeling most of them are unnatural...
   Ending this post with a sneak peak of what the Halloween promo looks like.


Tuesday, October 28, 2014

Still Working on that Halloween Promo...

I'm such a shame of an artist being so slow on working on a single decent artwork! Luckily by October 30th I could really finish it! Yey!
Still doing the lineart and making some last minute corrections. I realized the "premier" pose looked kind of unsatisfying and lacks fanservice... It's a first for me so I'm aware they kind of lack that "something" which most Boy's Love have ; decent art and damn good looking male casts! -So much for being a perfectionist freak -_-;; - 
References are really saving my life! Long live still drawn objects and online tutorials!!! \(^-^)/

Moving Unto Expressions

Yesterday I started working on the characters' expressions for the upcoming demo of Black Lotus. As always it makes me lazy, maybe because there's no excitement in it? Haha... So far everything's going well on both parties' side. Pocoscon made me read the second part of the prologue in it's awesome!
I can't wait to play it! (๑✧∀✧๑)
For the Halloween promo art, I'll start working on it from today and take a break from expression works. My goal is to finish it before October 30th! Luckily next week I have many of those free time. Here's comes my unhealthy life back. Oh, well...

Cold Autumn Greeting!

This morning, the moment I stepped out of house I was greeted by a cold autumn season. To think just some days ago on midday it still felt like summer!
Halloween is in less than a week so I should really get those sprite expressions done, not to mention I still have to work on those promo arts and omake for Black Lotus. Haha, so many things to do yet so few.
Once all sprite works are done, Pocoscon asked me if I wanted to make some omake or/and art work for the BXB project. I'm really looking forward on making them since it's also a first for me to officially release a Boy's Love omake! So nervous~~~~! ((유∀유|||))
I already have some slight ideas for the upcoming holidays though!
Seriously, this project is such a motivational after going hiatus on my own project. Speaking of project, I certainly am out of my mind considering my horrible idea! I'm planning on remaking once again Conspiracy's sprite for the 3rd time! Yep, I'm reeeally considering that possibility.
Shame on me, all talk and few deeds. 。゚( ゚இ‸இ゚)゚。  Someone stop me from doing any more crazy actions!!! Hahaha xD

I can't believe October is about to finish in less than two weeks! Time sure pass by, huh? The thing I only regret is that this year DeviantArt didn't made any special Halloween Event unlike last year. o(╥﹏╥)o
What are your plans for October 31st? Are you going trick or treating or simply watch some horror movies with some friends?
I'll probably be busy working on Black Lotus's art promo on my side. I'm glad to know we reached a suitable amounts of visits on our game thread! We're only starting and I hope you'll enjoy playing it as much as we are enjoying working on it! Plus it's free! ;)
Jokes aside, it's still damn hot here in Rome! D= So much for autumn season -_-;;

Saturday At Last!

Finally a bit of breathing! October is once again keeping me busy consecutively with few chance of taking a breather. Man, I keep wondering how I manage to survive my everyday. Thank you, Saturday! If I could I'd marry you and won't ever let you go! ♥~(‘▽^人)
About the Halloween promo art, I need to admit I hate working on full body shots. -yep, I'm that lazy- But what I can't believe the most is how I am really looking forward on making my first yaoi illust! -Is it right to call it that way???-  This must be the fruit of all those free times spent in reading yaoi. Can't help it though, they're so good looking and I'm aiming to have decent bishounens as well! (///Σ///)
Practice makes perfect! So does having references! Overall I think my fangirling got the best of me. Ops...?

Indecent pose...I made an indecent pose haha...(。-_-。)

I wonder why we don't receive any feedbacks on LSF? Do you not find it interesting enough? Does it lack something? Or maybe with more graphics you'll notice us more?
It's mind wrecking not knowing your opinions, but no matter what you do I'll give my best to this project -mainly because it's not mine so I can't slack off-
Do you find it unusual that I'm working on a dark story other than my usual fluffy works? I'm a macabre cute lover through and through!
Ah well~~~ no use complaining... (▰˘︹˘▰)

Main Characters Finish!

Yesterday I completed the default sprites for Black Lotus' 7 main characters! -Yep,7. Got wrong with some numbers...- I already started making my personal rankings, but the finished sprites is currently making me have second thoughts.
Now, I'll be moving on working the minor characters draft sketches. After that, I'll take some break since from next week it will be a bit hectic on my side. For Halloween please look forward for a promotional art featuring Black Lotus' protagonist -*cough*I'm thinking of making him wear a sexy witch costume*cough*- 
I wonder who you'll be pursuing first among the boys available?


I even tried making some younger versions of them out of whim on my notebook.


Friday, October 10, 2014

Almost There!

Can't believe I'm about to finish the main characters' default sprites! Only one left and soon Black Lotus' blog ( www.octaveraingames.wordpress.com ) will be updated with some preview of their sprites! Of course their profiles will soon be planned! I'm still discussing it with Pocoscon, but overall she approved the initial plan.
I'm hoping to finish the last sprite by tomorrow, so I can start making the drafts for the minor characters! - Looking forward for Yasu's uncle ❤- 
Here's a quick preview of the sprites done so far this week! We hope you'd stop by on our thread in LSF or the blog sometime. Thanks for reading ^^

Main Characters Part 1 Complete!

Today I'm about to start working on the last remaining main characters for Black Lotus, then I'll finally move unto the secondary ones! I'm looking forward on making their character profiles which will be used to update our LSF thread or even the blog.
So far Pocoscon has found a secondary writer for the game script. So I must continue giving my best as well for our team! ^^
We also thought of making some promotional art for the game featuring some characters, but before that I need to finish all main characters!
Thank you for stopping by and reading this post! I truly appreciate it (。・ω・。)

Yesterday's Romics Voyage

Once again my Romics voyage brought me new color inspirations and refresh feelings although by nighttime my legs were killing me! As always it was held at Fiera di Roma, occupying 3 areas; 2 for gadgets and other awesome things and 1 for movie place, where movie trailers are often shown.


 I went there by afternoon upon my friend's insistence and I must say it was quite surprising knowing there were still a lot of people even after 7 p.m.
This time though my only regret was not bringing sufficient money, unlike the previous times. Can you believe I'm not satisfied?! It's a shame I couldn't buy so many items though they're the same every year, which is also a good thing since I can always buy them next time. This month's been hard on me financially speaking. (|||❛︵❛.)



But oh well, what matters the most is that I had a great time. Whenever I go there it always feels like a first! Did I mention there were Dramatical Murder cosplayers? -where's my Clear?- (♥ω♥ ) ~♪

Today I'm about to work on the 4th default sprite out of 8 characters for Black Lotus! I'm really enjoying working with Elle.  ((┌|o^▽^o|┘))♪
Before that  I have to finish an art request I received on devArt though...

So far things are going surprisingly well in terms of art, although my persistent longing for improvement is still ongoing. Also taking reference from still life images is helping quite a lot! During summer I even started giving personal names to certain colors I came crossed with, ones which almost makes difficult for me to reproduce, but overall I'm satisfied with certain improvements I made although so little. -At least from my point of view -

Ending this post with a preview of the sprites so far done.

Black Lotus Project!

The project has finally a development blog! \ (•◡•) / 
As already mentioned on my previous posts I am working as an artist for a free BXB fantasy horror mystery. So far we have 2 definite sprites out of 8 characters while the script like the art is still in writing progress. For more info try visiting the blog Octaveraingames or visit the game's thread on LSF for us to know your opinion about the game. 

The characters' profile infos are soon to be updated so please keep an eye on us! Fear not I won't be playing hooky on this one -*cough*since it's not my own project *cough*- .

In the meantime he's a preview of the sprites I finished...

Sprite In Progress

Moving on the sprite linearts for the important characters! I am so loving this game - seems weird considering that I'm the one working on the sprite lol ヾ(@゜∇゜@)ノ- and I even have my own personal faves!
The project title is Black Lotus by the way, and our thread can is here! Try checking it now and let us hear your opinion about the game. Did I mention it's Boy's Love? Hohoho!!! (。・//ε//・。)
Anyway I'm glad some projects I've been following in LSF have started to be alive again, so many new ones as well. Ahh~~~ It's nice knowing that the Visual Novel world is getting popular each day.

Working On A Game!

Since Conspiracy is on hiatus and my idea for a new short Visual Novel was still abstract, I found myself uploading some artworks on dA and reading new updates from different artists I was following. Then...tadaa~~!!! I offered to be an artist for a collab game since I'm still craving on making sprites! The story is fantastic too and thriller is definitely my best genre!
Right now I'm working on the characters' face and how they look like under the guidance of Ms. Elle Rose. Though I'm the one creating their sprites I can't wait to finish 'em and play the game. O(≧▽≦)O  It's a BXB btw *T*

Romics Is Next Week!

As always this October from 2 to 3 is Romics! Although the stalls there are always the same, you might get lucky enough to find something new! I love recognizing each anime characters there and some cosplays are just fabulous it's worth taking pictures.-specially those sexy 3D male cosplayers *T*-
This aside, I'm thinking of making a short Visual Novel as a substitute for "Conspiracy" which you know is on hiatus or I might just start working on Bus Stop ver.2. In any case I might also offer my services for short works only -curse me for being lazy!!!- 
Being inactive artistically really sucks! :(

News for Today!

Guten Tag! Good day! I'm finally writing this post using wi-fi and it's been like ages! I haven't finished playing Kara no Shoujo -I hesitate to finish anything with good mystery/thriller writing- but it's pretty hard to have good end in order to continue... (((╹д╹;)))
Bad news! What I feared most has came true. Conspiracy is going hiatus for an indefinite period of time and by it I meant the project itself. Writing good otome game takes most of your time and life force. Although I have so many game plots I would like for you to play, working on such project alone really takes time. Thus Conspiracy will be on archive sections until I can find enough time to dedicate on it. In other words, me making long story otome games or otome games alone is out of the question for the moment. Guess I'm much better at playing them... \(///Σ///)\
I'll still be making some Visual Novels though, and Bus Stop will absolutely have a vers.2! To tell the truth it's a mixture of two short stories both featuring unrequited love and characters parting ways. C'est la vie, a continue spinning of the wheel of life. -Whoah! This is getting a bit serious-
Hope you'll still continue to give support despite today's news! Thank you very much.
Ending this post with Conspiracy's last script progress report.

The game contains 2,010 dialogue blocks, containing 14,145 words and 74,626
characters, for an average of 7.0 words and 37 characters per block.
The game contains 34 menus, 136 images, and 13 screens.

So Sorry!!!

I'm soo sorry if I didn't make any post on the very last weeks of August. Once I arrived home I learned the internet got cut-off. TT_TT
Now here I am still waiting until they put on a new one - It's been hard without internet I swear- I can't even watch Miyazaki's last animation! I heard they're showing it from September 13 to 16 in cinema theatres , but I prefer watching with subs. -Ha!-
I'm using an internet point since I only felt like going out just today.
As for the game script, the only progress I'm making is the number of words present. I no longer have any idea where the heck the story and characters' dialogues are going. I better admit I'm kind of putting it aside right now. It's still an WiP but until I have my internet back I'll surely be working on it lazily... So much for post-vacation blues or August goal...
Better go now, though I'll explain -or maybe not- everything once I can go online next time. Hoping that I'll finally get my connection back! In other words Conspiracy's once again in break mode for indefinite period of time. Hope to write again soon. :/

Konnichiwa!

How's everyone doing now? Last time you've heard from me I was in an accomodation with free wi-fi ^^
After some days of blue splendid sea and cream colored sands I finally went to my hometown, I would've updated if I could at the airport but since we were in a hurry I didn't manage to write something decent.
Now here I am back to the social media life after weeks of peace and quite, currently staying at a relative's place until my departure which turned out earlier than planned. So by second week of this month I might go back home. (*´▽`*)
During my entire stay I spent most of my time replaying Dramatical Murder and finishing both Dramatical Murder Re:Connect and Togai no Chi - finally!-


I kept wondering how the anime series is going and which route they used for it. -Please let it be Ren's route :;(∩´﹏`∩);: - I'll probably watch it once the series finish! I'm going to have an anime marathon for this! If you're a huge fan of Dmmd, please I beg you no spoilers! ε=ε=┏( >_<)┛
In the end I kind of left aside my own game -hahaha...- but fear not! I was en route B playing hooky. (〃▽〃) I did made progress, honest!!!
Unfortunately the whole thing slipped from my hands and right now I have no idea what the heck happened with the characters and the script itself...
I also tried doing some art work but most of them turned out to be nothing but sketches which I'll perhaps work on in the far future. A lot of new ideas did came too and I had to organize the whole thing. 
Since I finished "almost" all BL translated game present at the moment I'll just have to look forward for the WiPs present in LSF -all of them are really awesome!!!- and now I'm playing Kara no Shoujo.

Anyway, here's Conspiracy's script progress...

Statistics:

The game contains 1,773 dialogue blocks, containing 12,449 words and 65,597
characters, for an average of 7.0 words and 37 characters per block.
The game contains 32 menus, 136 images, and 13 screens.

...and sketches I made. ヾ(@°▽°@)ノ
 

Oddly enough just the other night I dreamt of a word "Eine Kleine" and found this on youtube! That's all for now! Bye! Bye! ( ̄▽ ̄)ノ

Updating Today

Hi! How's everyone summer vacation going? I hope everyone's having fun because mine this week has been a series of ups and downs... Not really the kind of summer I was expecting for this year.
Right now I found myself in an accommodation with an eerie feel to it or at least on the outside...
Oh well... (╯︵╰,) At least there's wi-fi.
So anyway, here's what I managed to do so far from last week...

Statistics:
The game contains 1,513 dialogue blocks, containing 10,436 words and 54,829
characters, for an average of 6.9 words and 36 characters per block.

The game contains 30 menus, 135 images, and 13 screens.

While writing the past scene for Katsuo and the heroine's meeting he ended up with dialogues such as:
"Stop being so annoying and just give me your stupid pinky."
 
I guess writing dialogues for a tsundere male is hard in a way... a dialogue with a bit of sense into it I mean. O.o Cmon I know you can do it! O °( >.< ) O

Though this week hasn't been like what I was expecting the positive side is that it gave me more ideas, updating the ones in my mind archive and gave me new inspirations on artistic side. I've been seeing vibrant and tropical colors everywhere it's so refreshing!

That's for today -whatever time it is around your side-. See ya!  :)

Today's Game Statistic

Posting today's work results...

Statistics:

The game contains 1,350 dialogue blocks, containing 9,248 words and 48,572

characters, for an average of 6.9 words and 36 characters per block.

The game contains 28 menus, 135 images, and 13 screens.


I'm currently stuck with the singular dating scenes but I'm positive I might come up with the right flow for the story. (°∀°)b 

Wednesday, July 2, 2014

Greetings!

I actually arrived at my destination 2 days prior and am pretty lucky enough to have found a wi-fi connection for the time being ( ´ ▽ ` )ノ
I tried writing the script while I was on board, but between sleeping and tiredness I eventually just putted it aside and opted for sleeping. >///< For now here I am updating the blog with this darn hot temperature killing me ahahah... -just joking-
Seriously though, I better start doing some serious work with the script. The individual dating scenes are blocking me.
Speaking of dating scenes, I got Ruka and Shitara-senpai in both :D mode... The ver.99 is okay for now, though I had some initial problems with the game when loading it in PSP and I think they should've just left the kanji like what they did with TMGS2. Ahh ~~~ I can't wait for the definite version.. :3 Bye for now ^^

I'm Leaving This Sunday!

Hello! Sooo sorry if I haven't updated anything these past 5 days! (●´⌓`●) I've even been neglecting the script and game itself. I've been busy between preparing my baggage, things to bring and cleaning up my things. It's times like these in which I realize I actually have a number of stashed, mostly papers and sketches, here and there. \(///Σ///)\
Turning back on today's topic... Just as the tittle says, I'm leaving this Sunday and will be turning sometime on the third week of August. From today onwards updates will be uncertain, mainly because where I'll be staying doesn't have any good internet connection but since I'll also be travelling in different places from time to time I'm hoping to find locations with free wi-fi connection (•̀ᴗ•́)و Of course there'll be one in this time and day! We are in the 21st century's technological evolution right...?
Anyway, until the header features Conspiracy's characters it means game updates won't be particularly certain or will be once in a lifetime -joking on this last part XD -, this will be remove once I turn in August -hoping that I have at least finish the script by that time- and from August I'll start with art work again.
Don't you find Jinjust cute?

Good news is that I finally got my hands on a 500GB external hard disk where I can at least put the project for the entire time- wishing that due to another bad luck mixed with carelessness I might not unintentionally destroy it- =.=
Feel free to drop by and keep visiting the blog if I can mange to write a post during my vacation time. -because I'll desperately try to update the blog(*⌒▽⌒*)θ~♪
With this last post for the month of June, please enjoy your summer vacation as well! (o‿∩) Baci Baci con affetto !!!

Long Time No Post!

I'm making progress with the script and the story's idea is once again obtaining some mental updates!
In other words I finally broke myself from the blocking parts. In a way or another...
The faux route is already about to be finish, as for the secondary route, it still needs reviewing and organizing before I can finally put it in script form.
My only problems these days are two things; my laptop and the computer I'm currently using. The first got its program malfunctioning while the latter keeps hanging (;*△*;)
Nothing bad happened so far, but basing on past "dramatic" experiences I had you never know. Good thing I finally got my hands on an external hard disk! (´⌣`ʃƪ)

Ending this post with my favorite boy band (* ་ *) -just felt like fangirling-

Got My Head Cleared Up

Just what today's post is! I finally got my mind cleared up after days of eternal torment - kidding ;P - I've just spent days finishing some anime series I've suspended since I started working on Conspiracy and am still trying to finish playing DRAMAtical Murder: reconnect, an fandisc featuring Dramatical Murder's after story (if your planning on playing this be warned, it's a BXB or Boy's Love and  18+ )! Then I'm finally going to play  Dmmd Fan Visual Novel made by Soramatsu.
 I'm already looking forward for the anime's english subs (ノ´ヮ´)ノ*:・゚✧



I'm glad the voices are similar to the game (●♡∀♡)

Changing topics, here's the plan I ended up with (⌒.−)=★

  1.  Finish script ( top priority
  2. Start looking for free musics and sound effects to apply on game ( I've lost my collection when I accidentally destroyed my 16GB USB -__- )
  3. Finish sprites' wardrobes ( Yuu's winter clothing is lame after all )
  4. Work on coding (we'll see... we'll see...)
  5. Aim for a 2015 release ☆*・゜゚・*\(^O^)/*・゜゚・*☆
I'm looking forward for a 60% progress during summer vacation.  \(^▽^)/

Perhaps I'm Stupid...

Today I tried understanding and making the gallery section following the documentation in Ren'Py, and some code tips in LSF.
Followed the documentation code
Really I'm trying my best to understand the codes, but perhaps it's better if I concentrate more on the art and script part since the results are far from what I was expecting... I'm getting discourage about it and no matter how much I try it all looks like hieroglyphic to me (;へ:)I'm not kidding...
Maybe if I look into it again in the future, after finishing both script and art part, things might go for the right way.
In the meantime I accepted another request on dA from the same person who requested the previous comic panel.
The previous love pairs from the comic panel
I need some good news to cheer me up, and another boost of energy filled with positive thoughts. (⊙_☉) I need to play some games I've suspended for long and watch anime. A lot of anime...

Today's Attempt!

I tried making the gallery just now and I think I'm getting the hang of it.
I know, it's pretty lame -_-
I better revise the gallery's UI design and finish the important things, such as the script!
Speaking of games... I finally got Ayumu Shirabe's ending! \(@ ̄∇ ̄@)/


 No matter how many times I replay the game, the only scene I never skip is when poor Shirabe realized he'd still been the priestess on their first challenge o(≧∇≦o)

His reply to what Shidou said regarding how well-crafted the icons are on their traits
ahahaha XD
I should have played it starting from Ryousei's route passing on Shidou then ending with Makoto! 
I'm literally ruining Count Hogstein's motives behind his actions. Thanks to all guys own route's hints things are getting a bit clearer. In a way... ( ´⍪⌂⍪`) I mean once I got Shirabe's hint I finally had more or less a much accurate idea of why M2 had done what he has done.(一。一;;)
That's all for today's post I guess.

Friday the 13th

Uwaahh.. today's friday the 13th ヽ(゚Д゚)ノ I hope nothing unfortunate happened to anyone. At least I haven't lost the data again ahahaha...
Anyway, I just finished a request on dA today. I haven't done any comic panel since I started working on the game, so the request was kind of refreshing (▰˘◡˘▰)



It helped me have fun and relax a bit, though I'm not entirely content of the results... I'm getting rusty with it
(。・//ε//・。) Just to make things clear a bit, the two of them are a couple.

Results So Far

This is what the new textbox looks like and I'm hoping not to change it any further

Yesterday I spent all day trying to figure out how to customize the gallery and its code but I literally cracked my head, must be because I couldn't concentrate at all. 
Since summer break began I've develop two new ideas; the first regarding yet again fantasy but of a much darker and not so cute theme and the second, is just your typical drama comedy (film influences I've seen these days perhaps?).  
In other words I'm deviating yet again, since I have no idea what the heck I'm doing lately. I guess I can temporarily suspend all art works and write the script for a while...(∩⌣̀_⌣́) Until I change work again..
Ending this post with two characters I was thinking for an otome idea and whom I wanted to distract myself a bit...

Conspiracy Demo Walkthrough!

As stated, after 15 days I'd post a walkthrough on how to obtain the CGs for the demo since it's pretty tricky...
  I don't know what you'll think after reading this though..hahaha..(*´∀`*)


Ready? 

  • Eat with Riko
  • When Katsuo asks you on the hallway pick answer "you should all go"
  • On the rooftop with Yuu pick whatever you like. The choices there only determines an object which he'll give you on the full version (omg spoilers (⊃‿⊂) )
  • At the amusement park pick whatever you like between horse and carriage. It only affects love points ;)
  • Again, pick whatever you like.
Now from here on you have the bonus part which mostly affects love points.



  • Pick whatever you 
  • Pick the red car
  • Pick whatever you like
  • On the last part pick...........Right!
After this bonus part you'll automatically obtain the scene which leads to the CGs!

There you have it! If this was the only ending left which you were missing then congratulations for finally completing it!!! \(^▽^)/ If you obtained all endings without using the walkthrough then congratulations to you too!

Finished Cosplays!

We're already on the June 7th! And summer vacation is finally here! 〜(^∇^〜)
This should mean more game progress right? I'm hoping to update more for this month since by the end of June I'll be travelling! Yep, travel - I deserve some relaxing time too right? - So sorry if the following posts will be too boring or pretty much annoying :P
Anyway 2 more days and I'll finally post the walk-through to obtain the CG! If you obtained it, congratulations! If still not... then please just wait 2 more days! ~(^◇^)/
 Today I've finished the Riko and Jin's crossdress cosplays for the school festival! What do you think?
Western clothings! 

Eastern clothings!


From tomorrow on I'll temporarily stop with sprite work and start UI design for the game. Fortunately someone offered to give me a hand! (≧∇≦)/ See you!

So Sorry!

Hello everyone!┻┳|・ω・)ノ
 Sorry for not updating the blog for 6 days m(_ _)m I've been busy working on Riko and Jin's cosplays... 
I'm having so much fun xD  
Starting from next week I can finally, or at least, dedicate more time on Conspiracy's development! After finishing these two poor lambs' cosplays I'll have to start re-making the UI or at least where I think it's necessary to do some changes.
This is the 3rd textbox ! 
There's so many things that should be done... Oh,well.o(╥﹏╥)o What matters the most to me is to finish this game and keep improving! me and my perfectionism (一。一;;)I have so many ideas in my head I don't even know if it's still a good thing... 
Just going to end this post with a preview of this 6 days work, or at least what I was up to...

♡o。.(✿ฺ。 ✿ฺ)
"This is unfair..."

Call me a freak but Jin in western female clothing (currently working) is so terribly beautiful! 
Yes, beautiful! The upper preview is just a taste!
