Lemma Soft Forums

@teacup: Yay! At least Aydin isn't totally unloved! But yeah, I decided to go ahead and make an ending with Charlos (Actually, it kind of turned into two... hah.) just for grins. I have decided to do at least one ending with each minor character. Should be fun. But yeah, don't worry about commenting a lot! I really appreciate it and it keeps me motivated. It can be a real lifesaver when I think about how much work I still have to do since it reminds me people actually do want to play this game. Then I get pumped and actually work on it!

@kura: It's true! They have superior genes! (Especially when it comes to hair genes...) I mean, even Rhael's dad (see attachment) would be quite the looker if he was younger.

Okay, update time: Spent the majority of the time coding. Changed around Learah a little by messing with her eyes. I think she's a little cuter now, but if you guys liked her better the other way just tell me. Made a sprite for Rhael's dad, Keral (as seen below). Am half-way done with another cg which you won't be seeing since it contains spoilers. XP Also changed up the dialogue box which you'll be able to see when I get around to posting some screenshots. That's about it for this update.

Oh, and now is probably a good time to talk about endings.
I'm thinking there will be roughly 15 different endings (Don't have a final count yet) and none of them are going to be lame ones where you die just because you picked a wrong direction (I hate those).
There will be at least one for each minor character and several different ones for Rhael and Aydin.
Just thought you guys might enjoy hearing that.

Believe it or not, I actually save Keral's pic and coloured the wrinkles on his face with his skin colour and he REALLY looks so COOL!~ xD

@nero279: You know, after you said that I actually went and did it too. How silly is that? I mean, I should have known from when I was drawing him... Hah. So yeah, just imagine him like that and with darker, less gray hair. Pretty fine, no?

As for today's update I'm going to give you some actual numbers this time around! Mwahaha!

Game Statistics so far (From the Check Script (Lint)):

1,304 screens of dialogue
17,438 words
13.4 words per screen
12 menus

There will be more to this since I still have to write the climax and the endings. There will probably be about two more menus on any given path, but it really just depends.

Anyway, I'm 100% done with sprites! Huzzah! And I only have four more backgrounds to do. I can't really give a number on cgs seeing as that just depends on if I'm being lazy or not. I do know that there are a lot of them to go though. Ugh. Still need to figure out what I'm doing as far as music and sound effects. The hard part will be putting it all together... Bleh. But yeah, I feel like I'm making good progress.

Oh, and be sure to check out the last character I'll be posting. His name is Merris, and unfortunately, he's kind of the bad guy of the game. So why did I make him so hot? Because I'm evil. On the bright side, you can get a couple different endings with him. Just don't expect those to be the happy ones. XP

Why does the teddy bear wore a bra? XD

Jokes aside, COOL! And the new guy looks... evil indeed~ XD

Oh dear, I want the girl
Also, I thought Rhael was a girl the first time I saw him. This is not a bad thing
But yeah, I keep saying I don't like BxB games but people on these forums keep making interesting games. I'm keeping an eye on this.

That was the first thing I noticed lol

That room background just upped my affection for Rhael.

You only have climax and endings left to write? That's awesome!! -clap clap-
Very cool that even minor characters get endings (Mustache-san!). This may be one of the rare games where I go for 100% completion!
Damn, Merris is hot. ( ﾟдﾟ) Being a bad guy just makes him even more attractive!!

Merris is very hot indeed *~*
MOUSTACHE MAN GETS ENDING??? :DD
I love where this is going and I can't wait for it to be released ^_^
Hmm...demo? n_n

@Lumen_Austrum: Haha, well... My best answer to that question is because Rhael didn't have anywhere else to put it. XP But yes... Merris looks evil. Evil indeed. So evil I want to molest him. *Ahem*

@armornick: Learah turned out pretty hot so I don't blame you. I actually really like her. But yeah, I don't blame you for thinking Rhael was a girl. I always worry about that when I draw guys with long hair.

@Snow Blossom: It's good that you can love him despite his tendency to collect weird objects. Haha. XD

@teacup: Yes! It is pretty awesome. It's still going to involve quite a bit of work... I want to make every ending worth getting-- even if they are endings with minor characters. None of that cop out crud! I also want them to feel really different and incorporate slight variations depending on how you answered certain questions. Yeah... I may be going a little overboard, but it's fun. I actually really like Merris. I'm actually kind of depressed I made him the bad guy. Hah...

@RemnantDream: Yes! Moustache man gets an ending (actually, he gets two...) I wanted to have a demo for you guys to play by today, but it didn't pan out. I still need to do a few things before I can release a demo, but there will be a demo eventually.


Updates: Worked on the script a little and did a cg. That's about it. Sorry I'm not showing you guys anything fun this time around. I got really busy this week.

Anyway, I'm going on vacation with my family tomorrow. Just wanted to give you the heads up. There won't be any point in checking this thread until after I get back on the 18th.

Yesssssss another BxB game! (Why am I so late to see this??? x.x;; )

This is such a unique genre for a BL game, and I'm really looking forward to playing it! The story seems just great, I really want to jump in and just play it. c:
I totally can't wait for a demo - but take your time and release it when you're ready! (But I'll be stalking it anyway...*u*)

*Is also a fan of your smackjeeves comics, btw<3*

_________________

@Boniae: Heh heh, thank you! XD Hopefully I'll have a demo out soon so you can try it out. (And I'm always happy to hear that people enjoy my comics. It's fun when people find me outside of smackjeeves. )

Updates: Did 4 cgs and a lot of work on the script! I'm almost to the point where I just have to write up the endings as far as that goes. Then I'll start putting the art and stuff in. There is still a lot of work to be done, but I think I'll be able to put out a demo pretty soon. Just note, it won't have music, because that is the last thing I plan to work on... XP

Yay you're back!! Hope you had a good vacation!
Must... resist... urge... to glomp Merris...!! D:

YEAH! WHY DID YOU MAKE HIM A BAD GUY!?

Ahem, *fixes herself, and removing the capslock*.

@Snow Blossom: Haha, thank you! I had a great time. And you don't have to resist the urge to glomp Merris... I know I didn't.

@OtomeWeekend: Well... It was a terrible mistake! TT_TT At first I was gonna draw an ugly old dude, but then I was like naw, I wanna draw someone hot. Then, he turned out like that and it was too late! Whhhhhhhy?! Why brain, why did you decide to make Merris pretty?

Just a quick update: I'm almost done with the script. I know I've been saying that for awhile now, but ugh... It's hard getting all the endings done. I've done nine and I still have six to go (It might actually end up being more)... Blah. Then I'll get to work on that demo for you guys.

Okay, well I didn't want to update until I actually had the entire script done, but it's taking longer than I thought it would. Blah. It evolved again... There are more than 15 endings. *dies*

Just to prove I haven't been doing nothing this entire time, here are the new stats:

The game contains 2,528 screens of dialogue.
These screens contain a total of 31,632 words,
for an average of 12.5 words per screen.
The game contains 19 menus.

I'll try to get the script done this week so I can finally work on getting the demo together. School starts for me next week though so the process will probably slow down. XP

But yeah... I just wanted you guys to know, I'm still hard at work.

(I swear, next time, I'm keeping the project smaller.)
