Game
Tales From An Oddity Shop

5 years ago

The first week of working on my game project has come and gone. It felt like a hasty week though.


In the beginning of the week,I mainly worked on the presentation of the game’s summary. I wanted to leave a little preview of what to expect in the upcoming project. I set up a Gamejolt page to register the name for it,and made a teaser poster for it as well.

Here's how it looks if you want to check it out.

Before I rush into coding,I thought it was best to make a screenplay style script of what events will play out in the game first. I had already wrote the game’s stories and concepts for what I envision. But since I wrote it in a traditional literature narrative,I don’t think it will transfer well in a visual novel game. So I am in the process of revising it.

I’m writing down how the characters will display their reactions,how certain scenes will transition to the next,how game menu options will appear,and how each variables will represent characters in the coding process. I debated whether or not to write down what tone of music should play to convey an atmosphere for each scene,but I decided to save that part for last during editing.(I am starting to notice composing music is a whole separate big project to handle that requires all your attention.)

That’s pretty much what I got done this week. I’ll probably be more productive next week when I am not distracted with studying for tests.(Let’s hope at least.)

Been doing my best to find a drawing app I can work with instead of MS Paint. Really loving Autodesk Sketchbook lately. The blending and coloring are AMAZING.

Also here's a crossover drawing I made of Jacket/Richard as an Animal Crossing Villager.

Changed up my name and made a logo too. This little guy is based off of the Fresno Nightcrawlers btw.

Here's a recent oil pastel portrait I made of Adam Driver.

Short update but here are some of the taxidermy animals I am making for the interior's background.

Hey look,I finally got around to making a Twitter page.😅

Here's a quick update on the look of the shop's exterior. (This was taken from my IG stories.) Still got plenty to do.

Here's some Muppets/Midsommar crossover pictures to have you chuckle for a bit. I got to redo Sven and Kermit/Fozzie when I get the chance.

Okay so….nothing much happened in the week that followed. I tried my best to keep myself focus on my game project but I was faced with more challenges in my life.

I updated the game’s logo what do you think?(Got to work more on this page’s presentation soon too.)
