Game
Blox's RPG
2 years ago

After over a week's worth of procrastination, I finally have something to show and it concerns those redesigns I mentioned. Without further ado, here they are with new character information, listed in the order they were made in.

Blox

"Can't find lost salad"

He's blue, dabadee dabadie, with the black hair and the red eyes and the cheek bits and whatever else up there.

It's a hoodie (yes, done many times before, but there's a reason for that) which while missing from here normally has pockets at the front and also has his face, albeit a simple version of it, on the back. Also has brown pants.

Has a level of self-awareness, but just Deadpool levels, not full-on Monika levels. Cheerful enough, but even the most cheerful of people have some unhappy moments, else they most likely don't qualify as people. Can still keep his head screwed on, regardless of how insane the situation is, but often that's just too boring for the guy.

Jacob

"Definitely a maniac"

He's quite basic, with a neutral expression, pitch-black eyes, simple dark brown hair, etc. The shirt is probably the most unique part, and even that's pretty simple.

He's more or less a blank slate. I think if he wasn't a player character, though, he'd probably be an arsonist. I mean, just LOOK at those eyes.

Emily

"Never fully opens eyes"

The first redesign. Much more unique than Jacob design-wise, with a red short-sleeve dress thing (I'm not a fashion expert) that ends a bit above the knee, with some simple grey pants underneath and those open shoes. The waist bit has a bow or something at the back. The white bit is a scarf, though I will admit it looks more like a bandana. Maybe I'll make it a bandana.

Has the two black eyes like Jacob, but unless something surprising enough or such happens, they're never fully open. Also have a bit of a highlight to them. Mild freckles and dark-wine-red hair that's all long up the back, except for two strands up the front tied separate with two small green bows.

Keeps a small smile on the edge of her mouth. She's like that one friend standing on the other side of the room, who would give a small smirk and a thumbs up from across the room if you managed to ask someone out or won a prize or whatever.

Bliss

"Here comes the artist(s)"

The second redesign. In quite a few aspects, still the same, but now has a few key changes, like the addition of glasses, the hair tips now have a mild brown highlight, the shirt area of clothing have been replaced by a white, ruffled shirt kind of thing that doesn't go over the shoulders at all covered by a dark green jacket long enough to cover a bit of the already in place skirt. The hair's now more of a bob with a decently lengthy ponytail up the back.

A few details you most likely can't pick up on from here are the little eyelashes, in this case a pixel right next to the eyes and the legs, where the skirt now goes down to the knees and the boots (now more rainboot sized with no socks) and the red hair-tie up the back holding the ponytail.

Moderately bubbly, with some decent sass. Much like Blox, can stay grounded, but often chooses not to. The self-awareness is lower, but still there by a tiny margin.

A few final things of note:

1: If I see any of these characters without clothes, I'll go into a state of discomfort so pls no. It's unlikely, but R34 applies to EVERYTHING so I'm not taking any chances.

2: I did in fact procrastinate and had no reason to take this long for these.

3: that's it, I have nothing else to add.

Thanks for reading!

Why won't this box delete?

It's probably nothing. It has to be nothing.

I'll just move it down here so no one notices.

Next up

A long while back I saw many posts about new developers putting too many eggs in one basket and realised that's what I was doing and started making a spinoff so I was focused on something smaller. I think I'll give it a separate page.

just a hunch but I think I might have problems focusing

I call 'em Prucie and Lydena. (Prucie's the one with the knife, it's short for Pruscilla.)

One's active to a fault, the other's far more nervous and reserved. They're also really close friends.

Finally, something playable(?)

well this is far better than before

The thumbnail and header have been updated. I've also added the character portraits to the media section of the page.

EXCLUSIVE promotional art and release date! Get it hot off the press today!

So.

Thinking about redoing some of the main characters.

My order of priority is the female player > Bliss > the male player. (My guy's fine just the way he is)

They all have names now, by the way.

Left to right on the thumbnail:

Bliss, Blox, Jacob, Emily.

At this point I could very well abandon this thing entirely, almost no one knows it exists, I'm the only one working on it and it's barely even a walking simulator.

Regardless, here's something so I can say I've made something recently.

progress wow

(yeah I procrastinated again)
