Oh were so back.
First, with the announcement of Yap and Yell Deluxe (and it looking peak as hell) Mega and I thought about where Louder fits on the "Yap and Yell fangames" scale and we decided with all the changes being made that it was clear. Louder is not a remake, rather its a re-imagining of Yap and Yell itself. We decided this is the case because we saw that any remakes of games usually stick with the original formula in a similar form. FNaTI 2020 stuck with the classic TI formula, RE4R stuck with the setting and gameplay, but with Louder, the game has shifted away from Yap and Yell's setting and gameplay style so much that we cant really call it a remake at this point if it strays from the original design this far. Doesn't really change much but we thought it was something to think about.
Secondly Louder is getting slightly tweaked to fit in with the whole lore that a lot of Pizzaplex assets were handed to Yap&Co. So expect some slight changes to areas that are already finished. Not too big of changes rather just some tweaks to finished rooms. (Also the game now kind of has a Popgoes 2016 vibe to it which everyone on the game likes including me)
Third a smaller update, the description now has separate credits for the artists who contributed art to the game! This game uses a variety of artists for its posters or just art in general so i decided to separate the artists from the general credits.
Fourth, Valarie is retextured again. Not because i didn't like the last one, just Mega wanted to and showed off a way cooler design. All the characters are planned to be retextured at some point, but as it stands were doing one at a time with each room thats made.
On the subject of rooms, fifth and finally is the office design is finished and sent, now begins the work of props and texturing by yet again Mega (Which you can now see a prop wip in the photo!). Which then will be sent back to me to finally start getting the main office sections started.
You might notice Mega is doing a lot of work recently, but usually its been that they have offered to help with things, or wanted to change something. I just let everyone share ideas and its led to some really great choices for the game. Were still working on this game, slowly yes, but great work is being done to make this come together. - Retsuko
