SweetCanvas Weekly #13

Added 2024-03-05 03:24:12 +0000 UTC

Like I said in the music teaser post, I've mostly been trying to make my way through commissions, but SC related things have still been moving along quietly in the background:

The big one first, as of this month ALL the backgrounds (as well as alts, time of day variants, etc.) necessary for the SweetCanvas demo have finally been completed!!

That means that from now on any backgrounds I get will be related to the full release, but I'll be holding off on them for a little while since I would like to make sure that I can afford everything that I need to without too much issue. Although that being said, I will probably have to open commissions again after I finish this current batch to be 100% on that
Kana's Karaoke outfit is in the process of/nearly finished being rendered on all the sprites that require it, and with that sets completion all of the Kana alts necessary for the demo will be complete outside of some expressions, which I can do very quickly
I've done a significant number of scene layouts, since they're necessary parts of actually getting the scenes to a completed feeling state in game. I posted a bunch of these on twitter but here they are for anyone who hasn't seen them:

Restaurant, Io

Limen, Common

Karaoke, Common

Museum, Kana

Karaoke, Alys

Museum Cafe, Kana

Bookstore, Common

Daito Terminal, Common

Art Club, Common

Alys's Home, Alys

School Roof, Io

I've also worked on a bunch of sketches for the lore segment CGs mentioned in the pinned update, but I think it's best not to show you those for the time being
And finally, I've been revising my storyboard for the animated opening but again, I would rather keep that under wraps for now, so that'll be everything (outside of writing which you can assume I'm always doing)

As always, thanks everyone who's stuck with me through this project, I really genuinely appreciate all the support and hopefully you all enjoy the vn when the demo finally releases!
