The logos with the various foods should be posted soon for feedback. In the meantime, here's a quick look at the wolf catching up on the day's news:



Eventually, the newspaper will serve as a way to drive forward some main story points, and also recap some of the various choices the players have made in the prior day.

#3!
This sounds and looks fantastic! Great idea. I hope you can pull it off.
Looking forward to seeing how this progresses. All the best!

@Leo J Welcome to the devlog, and thanks for the nice words!

Here's a quick concept for one of the pigs. If we had to name him, I'd say he looks like a Boaris :D

[Lilou84x]

Wow such an amazing work here!! I love the concept art too! It seems to be so fluffy that i need to play it now hahahaa!
Have you got a release date?

Congratulations for this hard work!
Cheers!

I'm really curious as how you're going to add competitive (gameplay) elements to the game. Good luck!

@TammiDev Welcome to the devlog TammiDev!

I believe I mentioned before that the game can be played by both one player, or two. The single player mode is played against a computer controlled opponent, controlling either the Wolf or the Pigs, depending who you chose to play as. As choices pop up on screen we needed a way to show the player what choices the computer was making. Here is a WIP shot, strewn with programmer art, of what we have so far, featuring the pigs as the computer player:

Nice programmer art! I do really love the idea that they reach in to adjust things in the play area.

This is extremely charming. Loving the warm pastel color design. My library of choose your own adventure games is seriously lacking so I'm very interested in seeing how this game developes.

Ty Ah then it might be my misinterpretation of the term 'competitive'. I thought the game was going to contain elements of mechanics, strategy that players could master to become ultimately the best. What you now described to me is the possibility to play a point-and-click game together wich I would refer to as Versus or Co-op instead of competitive. Think about it to avoid possible confusion when going to the press
Seriously this is programmer art? Because it's already really f-in good!

[ericmbernier]

Ha, when I say programmer art strewn about I merely mean the choice bubbles, and pigs hoof mouse icon. The rest of the art is mockup art that Karen made.

As far as the terms versus vs. competitive, I could see how it might lead to confusion. Versus sounds like a better fit. Thanks for the suggestion.

Ah *embarassed*, I was too distracted by the animals to take a closer look at the bubbles XD Soz!

[diegzumillo]

Lovely art! And I love management games!

[Modog]

Lovely art, i like that smooth color style...

[Moth]

I adore the concept of a versus CYOA, I've never heard of anything like that before!

The pig concepts are really cute, my favorites are the 6th, 4th and 8th.

[ericmbernier]

@Moth, @Modog, @diegzmullo Welcome to the devlog! We've been rather quiet lately, as Karen has her head down on her other project, Oceanheart, at the moment. We intend to pick things back up in the coming week, which means the posts should become more frequent again. :D

[ericmbernier]

Karen has been busy doodling away, and has a few new pigs to show. We're particularly fond of the concept with the pig glasses:



A bunch of work is also being done on the writing right now, which doesn't lead to very interesting devlog posts. :/

[ericmbernier]

It's been many months since I've posted an update. Sorry about that, though, things seems to be back in full swing.

Here is a sketch of how the Three Pigs will look in the game:



Next, a glimpse at the final logo:



Third, a quick look at a mockup of the game's title screen:



Last, here's a fun tweet showing how Karen mocks up screens:

point-and-clicks are always fun! i love the style you've got going too, it's a great look. can't wait to see more.

[ericmbernier]

Thats Catghost!

Here's a quick look at the mocked up character select. UI, UI, and more UI \:D/

[ThilDuncan]

I really love the use of colour in this game. Really nice dreamy warm quality to all the art and I'm really intrigued by the idea of a 1v1 adventure game too! : )
