Devlog: heaps of progress ✨
Hello everyone, I hope you are all doing great!
It's time for a public project update, and this one is jam-packed with news and lots of little sneak peeks ✨
[h2]A lovely addition to the key art[/h2]
Players who tried the demo noticed that despite being promoted to love-interest, Ascanio was still absent from the key art... that's not the case anymore!
Aside from his addition, everybody received some extra love. The key art was already beautiful, but it's now perfect!
Ah, and... once you complete the game, something might change in the title screen🤭
[h2]Carolise's new wardrobe[/h2]
Work on the sprites has been completed! This included new arm poses, expressions and, in some cases, outfits.
The main character got the most love with two additional outfits—a lavish dress in green velvet and a pretty blouse for the hottest months ahead.
Enilia, the resident seamstress, can help you acquire both!
She can also help you come up with a gift for Sylas—a new blouse to replace her threadbare one! This outift is exclusive to Sylas' romance😃
More characters got their wardrobes spruced up, but I am going to keep some things a mystery! 😀
[h2]Development progress[/h2]
It something is not on the list (like background art), it's because it has been completed and implemented ✨ here's what still needs to be done:
Proofreading: only the last chapters still need to be proofread!
Voice line recording: almost completed! Once I have all the lines, audio-editing will begin in earnest.
Implementation: this process takes the word script and turns it into code, checking for logic, variables and whatnot. Not the most exciting part of the job, but it's the backbone of the game!
[h2]Thank you again for your support! [/h2]
