Costumes for next Update

Added 2024-07-04 13:24:04 +0000 UTC

Some fits that'll be used for the next update. (Well, at least 3 of them.)

Ponderings/Dev notes:

The side tail Shion is pretty cute but I think I'll be keeping that for another swimsuit for another route simply because I hard committed her hair for like 2 scenes already and redrawing them will throw me off a cliff for the schedule in my mind.

Erica on the far right might not even appear in the final update because if I were to commit to using her younger self, I have to write a whole backstory for her, Masaru and the Earl and if I were to do that, that'll be like 2-3 scenes I'll have to create and Masaru route is really, really long at this point. (This game has 5 routes, remember?).

But if I don't, some scenes might not have the level of depth as you might expect. But if I do, the next release is going to be pushed back by weeks. It's an important but is it really? kind of situation.

I also spent like 3 days worth of time working on a minigame and it blew things apart so I had to spent time to fix it and had to ditch it so wow was that a depressing waste of time.

If the art looks a little sketchy and incomplete, it actually might as well be. Some details aren't finalized yet and I might change them but this line-up is pretty much the new outfits for the next update. I'm also looking to dress Erica in a kimono and don't really have any idea what'll suit her besides blue so there's that missing here. Oh damn, I also have to draw the guys in swimsuit...uh, well...look forward to that, I guess.

I do hope you enjoyed the little preview of their new fits and I'm back to working on the next update!

PS: if you remember how shion's old sprite look, yes, this is a completely new pose! Her arms make her look too stiff/reserved so I'll have to think of ways to make it more dynamic and fitting to her personality.
