Doing progress. I don't have in-game shots yet, but I should have next month. I decided to not touch the GDD after this month until I get some progress done. Besides that I'm training to draw humans and I'm deciding about the story. One thing that I learned with all this is that making profiles for charaters is so fun! Searching for different characteristics (e.g. age, clothes, hair color) for my characters is something that I never did on my other projects, but I'm really liking it. Next update I'll post a in-game shot.

I agree, it does look better. I'll reflect this on the final HUD.

I got an offer from a musician via PM, so I'll work with him when I get the game running.

I like the later better, but either way there's no need for the " " emotion.

Hi again, just wanted to give an update on the game. The game is progressing slowly, but I'm still working on it. I'm doing an another tentative project alongside, but the development wouldn't have advanced without it. This screenshot is not "in-game" yet, but it shows the first room in the game. (the dust on the air is animated in-game btw) Also, AdventIslands (developer of Dangerous Dungeons) created the protagonist's portrait a while ago. Check it out on his DA: http://adventureislands.deviantart.com/art/Sea-Air-Lighthouse-Festival-Mia-288196505Next time I'll post a video with footage from the game. Until then see ya! PS: Listening to this guy's music really helps on creating the prologue. http://grooveshark.com/#!/search?q=Azimuth

All started with this tweet ( https://twitter.com/#!/AdventIslands/status/175174992416358400), which I replied to him saying that I had the opposite problem (designing characters), and then we talked about it and at the end he did the protagonist's design. He did a really fine job, and I couldn't be happier with the current design.

@Squid Party Yeah, he will work on portraits for the other portraits. ------ So I've no more tests to study for, so I can work on this again (yay!). The engine is getting finished, although there's still some work to do. Here's the dialog implementation. From the three, what is the one you prefer? (I haven't implemented that yet, but I'll try to make the portraits animated with a "pencil" effect, ala "Hotel Dusk". Also the background that is blurred isn't finished yet.) I also made concept art for it: And a new (and final) logo: Finally I want to try to post more regularly, so instead of big posts with many contents I want to do small posts with some contents that come more often. I don't want to take this posting strategy as commitment though, so I'll see if I feel like doing it. I missed working on this game, but now I can do it, which is awesome. This time without working on it made me think of some cool ideas I can implement to it.

You just mentioned Hotel Dusk - you've captured my attention. This looks interesting. Please continue with it - everybody likes mysteries!

@ANtY Thanks, I will go for the first version then. @SolarLune Thanks, Hotel Dusk is the reason why I'm making this, so there will be similarities on it. @Squid Party thx. @John Sandoval Wish granted. *goes back into some random magic lamp*

I prefer the first one of the dialog pictures, it shows well the character who is currently talking. Dig the new logo! i demand more animu waifus
pls and ty
And here I've been trying really hard to break free from my usual Japanese influenced style. Unless that's what Manuel prefers then I don't worry if she looks animeish.
