行方不明（１）| Missing Children (1)

みなさん、こんにちは

みなさん、お元気ですか。毎回言ってますが僕らは相変わらず元気でやってます。今回のゴールデンウィークでやっと家族や友達と一緒に過ごすことができて、久しぶりに楽しい時間を過ごせました。もちろんゲーム制作も楽しいですけどねー！

僕は、残念なとこ、ゲーム制作以外の事で少し忙しくてあまり進めなかったのですが、一方兄の方は、背景と3Dモデリングに頑張って取り組んでます。怨霊に続いて、フォトスキャンを通してより和風感を感じられる作品になってると思います。プログラミングの方では少しセーブ機能で思ったより苦戦しているのですが夜勤事件のおかげでゲームのセットアップは相当らくにはなってるので焦らずやれてます。ゲームデザインとストーリーは結構こんかい気に入ってます。

またちょっと今までにない感じになってるなって感じます。以前にちょっと説明したかもしれませんが、「行方不明」では行方不明になった三人の中学生たちをいじめ探偵として近所の警察と一緒に探しに行くというゲームになってます。ゲームプレイは夜勤事件を少しステップアップした感じになってると思います。前作品達と比べて、キャラクターやストーリーに重点を置いているので少し違うテーストのゲームになってるって思う人も多いかもしれません。今回はホラー要素を少し取り除いていますが、個人的にはかなり気に入ってます。

いつもＰＡＴＲＥＯＮにログインするたび、なんかうるってきます。

みなさんこれからもチラズアートの応援よろしくお願いします。

Hello everyone,

Hope you all are doing well. I'd like to first apologize that we've been pretty inactive on socials even though I said that I'm gonna be posting things on a regular basis again. I've been tackling a little bit with anxiety and things outside of game development, but I'm happy to be back on routine again.  Hmm but yeah, overall we've been good! Over here in Japan, we had this famous week-long vacation time called the Golden Week and we got to hang out with families and friends and had a nice time. While I had some time off on game development, my brother, on the other hand, has been working hard on the environment & 3d modeling. He's been photo scanning some environment around here and it's honestly starting to look pretty great.

Missing Children is going well. I think better than ever. Development is going very smoothly in terms of programming thanks to the polish the scripts had throughout The Convenience Store's development. Right now, I've been dealing with the infamous saving system and though it's manageable, it's taking a lot longer than expected since I just started learning about it on Onryo. My brother's also been working on the designs quite a bit and I would say that I'm really really excited about it. 

I don't remember if I mentioned this before somewhere, but the game is going to be about a "Bully Detective" solving some mystery helping out a couple of local cops find the 3 missing children. I think gameplay-wise it's going to be a step-up from The Convenience Store, but also... different. It puts more focus on the characters and story compared to our previous games. I think it's gonna be a mixture of coziness & suspense if that makes any sense. It definitely has less spook-factors, but I think it's gonna be a lot of fun.

Thank you thank you thank you everyone for stickin' around and look forward to more info about Missing Children!
