General Projects Update

Conspiracy

This otome will be put on hold for now. So far I'm reviewing the points system and copy/pasting the script while trying to organize its label.


Yaoi Jam

Starting this Friday I will commence working on the BL project's art assets. The game jam will begin on 1st June so until then, I won't be coding any of the UI nor sprites.
I have also prepared initial sketches for the characters' sprite but wanted to confront a 3rd party's opinion in terms of character design and I'll be opening the thread pretty soon on LemmaSoft so you guys should check us out! 


Short KN

A few weeks ago I mentioned I finish writing this short script for a really short KN. I received the proof-read just yesterday and it's 100% ready to be worked on. Depending on its feedback I might make a 2nd chapter for the story. I will be working on this after Yaoi Jam, alongside Conspiracy.


That's all for today's post! In addition, as of next week I'm finished with the school year! (❁´▽`❁)*✲゚*

Heading for Yaoi Jam!

I'm officially going to partecipate at Yaoi Jam! 

So, I will be putting aside Conspiracy during these two months. I'm really pump up for this summer jam! We're still in the development phase though but I already made some initial sketch for their sprites. 
Basically my summer will be frenzy this year between group and personal projects. I really love to complicate my life (LOL).
Will be posting more updates soon! Hopefully.

Sorry!

Hi everyone! I'm sorry for the lack of update! 

I'm very busy at school with my my final exams for this year and all piling up. I'm still working on Conspiracy whenever I can though. In fact I'm proud to say Riko's new base sprite version is finally reaching its finishing touches with the coloring.
I've already prepared Yuu's flat colors as well while Katsuo's on standby, ready for the lineart. I admit I kind of neglected copying the proof-read script. I'm too focused on my personal problems too.

I'll make up for the game art after school ends as I await my ill fate. There's a 50.5% chance that I may stop being a VN creator or player around next year for personal reasons. I won't be posting the details about it here though since this is now solely a game development blog. In addition, I love my privacy.

Changing topic, I might partecipate at Yaoi Jam this year! There's this dark short game which has been bugging me since last year. It could even be a 16+ game for its possible contents. No nsfw scenes although there could be some allusion to it but I won't be putting those. I'm thinking of giving more importance to the psychological aspect of the game rather than the characters' physical relationship. Plus, I'm still not good with drawing nor writing those scenes despite my deep love for BL manga, literature and games.

As for that short KN I finished writing, turns out I will be using Cloud Novel for it. It will have only one soundtrack and some CGs. No sprite though. Depending on the feedback I might make a second part or episode for it which more or less explains the story. The latter will be difficult for neither I myself understand what that story is all about. I'm so ashamed of myself.

This is the longest post I've written after a long time.

Take care everyone!

Conspiracy: Update

Can't believe it's already May! I've been so busy with personal problems I hardly even managed to work on Conspiracy.

On the other hand, a few days ago I finished a game script for a short KN (again) which title is yet to be decided. Getting back on Conspiracy, I'm happy Yuu's new sprite version looks more decent than my earlier works! I guess I did improve on my sprite making design, but there's more space for further improvement, especially the coloring part.

I kept his original hair style

I do admit his hair came a bit off but oh well... In the meantime after applying his base colors I'll move on to Katsuo.

My goal is still to publish this game within 2016. Also, regarding the game's CG I don't think I honestly can pull off all that work. Thus, this brought me to consider looking for a CG artist, although I honestly wanted to work on them myself to make both sprite and CG coherent to the game's art style. But this and that, this and that...

I plan to start asking around once I get every characters' default sprite done. 

That's all for today's update! Have a nice day!
