Hey, everyone!

It's a bit of a muted release this time I'm afraid. Both me and my artist were pretty badly affected by illness and it seriously disrupted my plans for the month. There's a few more scenes scripted for Nozomi's Zombie storyline, although I was really wanting to finish it  by now >.<

There's a couple of new CGs for the story as well, although I had to make do with preliminary sketches to present one of them, which is meant to be the first part of a very ambitious CG scene. Also, our main girls all have had a new pose and expressions added to their sprites. Penlight's characters are already pretty expressive given the visual novel format, and I've always thought it important while constructing the game that their sprites do have a big range to choose from while they're talking and reacting to things. Makes them seem more alive on-screen. So out of all the setbacks I had this past month I was happy to at least get that done for them.

Anyway, that's all for now. At this time of writing both me and my artist are doing a lot better so next month I should finally get the Zombie story path done while adding a lot more of the illustrations I wanted for it. I hope you'll all look forward to it~

What's New

  • WRITING: Zombie storyline scripted through to the end of day 11
