Devblog #28
Hey, Wizards!Shady Character One here!I was planning on writing this blog eventually, but since Shady Two already touched the changes in design of girls in the previous devblog, I though I might as well tell you about their character development a bit.Right off the bat, we decided that we will need eight primary girls for the game. One per house - sounded a bit boring. Making the number of girls p...
Devblog #27
Hey, Wizards! It's Shady Character... Two. Shocker, I know!So today I decided to chime in and talk a bit about our girls and the way they change throughout the process of game development. I am predominantly a character artist, but before diving into the game, I had never worked on sprites. Is this important? Well, yes, it is, because before even starting to draw the whole game, what we needed...

Hey, Wizards!Shady Character One here!Sometimes you get stumped on very strange things, and sometimes those issue get resolved in very beneficial ways. This one issue was bothering me for some time now, but it was only last week that I finally decided that in needs to be tackled.I am talking about this blacked out button that you have seen in the town since the game's first release."Back A...
Sketches in the game
Hey, Wizards!I got a question for you all today. I was thinking on putting artwork sketches into the game in places where complete artworks will be eventually. What do you think?
Devblog #25
Hey, Wizards!Shady Character One here!So, I have finally properly returned to working on the game this week. A lot of bugs found in the game by players did help to jolt me into consciousness. God, Ciara's storyline was buggy. The town store was hit by bug gremlins too. Well, that will all be fixed by the next release (some of it already was with a hotfix). But all of this sudden work helped pu...

Devblog #24
Hey, Wizards!Shady Character One here!It feels that the last week got deleted from time and space, but I slowly crawled out of the holiday food coma and got back to development. Slowly for now, since Shady Two is still recovering and cannot really draw much, so I try not to get ahead, so there would be less pressure on her to try and catch up. So I decided to focus on auxiliary things a bit. Mostl...
Year's End Devblog
Hey, Wizards! Shady Character One here!So, the year is coming to an end, and it is as good a time as any to think back on the results of our work here. It has been almost a year since we started working on this project proper. Ten months to be precise. I didn't know how to code back then, and Shady Two had no experience drawing sprites or game UI, but we somehow managed to to glue together so...

Devblog #22
Hey, Wizards!Shady Character One here!So, now that the first major addition to the game is done and we had a bit of a "bugfix and chill" time, I think it is time to talk what's next in our plans.Most important is the population of the newly opened month of November. Right now it barely has any dedicated events, which I plan to fix soon. As well as random events which were barely enough...
Devblog #21
Hey, Wizards!Shady Character One here!I am going to be frank with all of you, I was dead sure that this devblog was due tomorrow. That just shows how fast this past week flew by. Like it wasn't even there.In the aftermath of the major update release me and Shady Character Two decided, or more like told by our bodies, to get a bit of a breather. The "breather" did not go well, since aga...

Devblog #20
Hey, Wizards!Shady Character One here!Since today is the Major Update day, I don't really want to go into technical details in this blog entry, so instead I would like to talk about the world-building for a bit. I am a bit of a world-building fanatic, but not in a way that I like to come up with things, facts, events or places that have nothing to do with the events of the story. Some people l...

Hey, Wizards!Shady Character One here!Since the major update is just a week away that's what I wanted to talk to you all about. Not just the update, but general troubles that I faced when coming up with the update strategy for the game.Planning updates for non-linear game can be tricky. Unlike the linear story-based games where you can just add "chapters" to the game and continue the s...
