Here's a new look at the first scene in That Which Binds Us with some new outfits- even Ciera gets a new outfit! This week I worked on fixing outfits to poses and now I'll be working on the second playthrough script as well as making a new demo.
This time we've got cool stuff to show in-game as progress! First up is a custom transition that will mark the start of a new day. The gif isn't the best quality, so it's much smoother and a bit faster in-game. And here's the finished (?) textbox, as it looks in-game! The buttons being little knots on the string was a suggestion by my friend Empish- thank you so much, I think it came out great! I used pretty well-known icons for each of the options, but to avoid any confusion it displays a small line of text saying what it does when you hover over them, as it shows here with the Back option.
Working on extra clothes and poses for Evalise, so that she's not wearing the same outfit for the whole thing. Idris will also be getting a few new outfits as well!
Still working on the textbox- here's a current WIP! As you can see, it's less saturated and the name tags have been changed to a different font- Lovers Quarrel. I've still got buttons to add, but thanks to my friend Empish I've got a great idea on where to add them!
A lot has gotten done on That Which Binds Us! For starters, let's talk about the script. The first draft is done, but now I'm going back and opting for a much longer experience with small choices as well as a new game+ with an alternate "route" to take in the relationship (still dating Idris, but with a twist on how it starts). The total script now is set to be over 25k words, and is currently at over 18k (the first draft having been around 16.5k). Now, on to art! First we have the finished main menu art, complete with the logo! The string changed a bit to match the logo, and a few corrections were made in other places. And here's an in-game look at the starting scene with Evalise and Ciera! As you can see, Ciera's sprite is now finished. That's all for today, but more will be coming out soon!
