$5+ Update 9

Today's image It's been really hard to find images of Kimiko that I could show off to you without giving away significant spoilers about her story line. I toyed with giving away those spoilers, but I really want you guys to have the full experience intact when you play the game. Therefore I've posted this image of Phinn's of Kimiko looking cute and naked, without any other real hints or context in it. When is this image seen? I'm not telling. Why can't I show you more images of Kim? I'm not telling. I will say, however, that almost all of the characters have some kind of spoilers I can't reveal because they're surprises in the game. In a story about a mysterious mansion, you can bet there are going to be some secrets revealed. If you have any requests for future images to share in these updates, let me know in the comments below. I want to keep the best stuff for the game itself, but if there's anything you're really wanting from these updates I'd like to know about it. Voice acting So this week, if you've been following my twitter at all ( @BBBenAIF ) you will have noticed I've been pretty much exclusively working on compiling scripts for voice actors. This means it's a little hard to show much obvious progress, but the fact that I've been getting them done and sent out is important. Once the scripts are out the actors can work on their recording while I get back to programming the game, and the development of the game will move faster. The full amount of voice acting I've received so far is: basically all of Fumi's lines and about a quarter of Kimiko's lines. I've cast and sent out scripts to the actors for Rio, Ai and Hiroshi as well. I have cast, but not yet sent out the script to Sacci, who is playing Iku, and one other actor who is playing a secret part (that you might be able to guess if you've played the other games). That just leaves Masami as yet uncast, and I'll be doing a new casting call for her but I wanted to focus on my current actors. Voice acting sample Here's a sample from Kimiko's voice acting that I've received recently: https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0B5vgfqb7HxWUxOdHd4c0tEdjQ/view?usp=sharing I hope you agree that the actress is doing a fine job, and giving the part just the kind of energy you'd hope for in a character like this. (Note, this line is from her audition; none of the actual in-game lines I have from her can really be posted here as an example, because they involve too many spoilers.)
