The coding would be done pretty slowly, but since the game spans over a mere 10 days, I guess it won't take too long.

This was ~supposed~ to be by second VN on queue (actually....fourth), but since my first VN is progressing with a very slow and steady pace (I'm illustrating it, after all @_@ and the persistent and multipersistent data and experimental coding is such a headache) and my "first" dating sim idea is pretty....far from reach (Even after three years of trying to grasp Ren'py coding/scripting).

Hence, "0.1" ouo Anyway, off to the game information proper. Happy reading!


Image


Plot
You play the role of Alexis, an eccentric girl whose motto is "Go against the flow!", which is pretty obvious when you compare her to her other female classmates. With her preferences being Rock over Pop, Video Games over Social Networking, and Basketball over Cheerleading...You could say she's practically one of the guys.

And she could care less about the band that her best friend, Kathy, has been fawning over.

But after a horrible day at school, She returns home and is greeted not by her parents --but by the lead singer of Zero.One.
And there is no sign of her parents anywhere. Oh right, they're on a trip around the world. Without you.

How could this day get any worse?
....Of course it could.

The perverted, stuck-up brat of a vocalist insists that he's your childhood friend, and crashes in your room. You're going to have to deal with him for a couple of weeks until your parents get back. Hopefully they accuse the man of perjury or something.
But what the hell are you going to do to survive the days until then...?!


Characters
ouo I used tektek to show their basic design. More details will be shown through concept art :D



Image
Alexis
{Short, messy, reddish-brown hair with star hairpins. bright blue eyes. Silver stud pierces. Pinkish skin}
That's you, the man of all women in Farview High. They say you're a lucky girl -- you beg to differ.
Maybe that will all change when you graduate.
Maybe it won't.

Concept Art: [Outfit Sketches]



Image
Katrina AKA Kathy
{Long, straight, black hair in a tidy ponytail and pink headband. dark brown eyes. Dangling pearl earrings. Caramel-like tan skin}
Your best friend since elementary....or was that kindergarten...? You can't exactly remember how you met each other, and why you still talk to each other despite your many differences, but it all worked out.
She's completely obsessed over Zero.One, and seems very jealous of you, despite the fact that you don't quite enjoy the current situation.

Concept Art: [Outfit Sketches]



Image
Ethan
{Short, spiky, light brown hair with blond streaks on bangs. icy blue eyes. several ear piercings. Pale-ish skin}
Lead singer of the band Zero.One
Despite his kind personality towards the media and fans, he seems like a total jerk to you...Could it be intentional...?
He claims to be your childhood friend, but you cannot recall being friends with anyone as horrible as him.
Then again, you don't really remember much in general.

Concept Art: [Band Attire][School "Uniform"][Casual]



Image
LOKI
{Short, neat black hair. green eyes. thin-framed oval glasses. Pale skin}
Lead singer of Point.One's rival band "Valhalla Nights" with some sort of Norse Mythology theme. His identity is extremely classified.
Maybe he's the ticket out of this mess....?

Concept Art: [NATM]




Progress
Script: 2 1/4 of the 11 days (inclusive of the plot's introductory first day) are done
Art: 10% (Menus, Main Menu, etc. are accounted for)
Voicing: 0%
Misc: 0%

Sounds interesting.
Don't know why but the MC reminds me of me :lol: except for the basketball thing, I'm a total wimp!
Anyway, will look forward to this.
Good luck~ :)

:lol: High five to that! When I try to play basketball, it's like the ball's aiming for my head! OW! Haha xD
:D And thanks~

Also~~~~~
I read the update on Caught in Between~ Don't worry, I won't go MIA. I'm just trying to make the roughs look more like the other artists' styles before I do the lineart. Y'know, so the styles won't clash.

@ silverporksama - :lol: Same here, even if I am pretty tall I can't get it to go through that hoop. Oh and don't worry, it's alright, just send it to me when you're done, so I'll be able to add at least one more CG on that game.

@LVUER:
lol. I think reality kicks :D

Anyways,

I like the concept and everything... but i can't help but feel that I've saw a manga very same as this, i just can't remember the title... and that the parents are aways and i bump to a guy and life starts going crazy can't help but make me remember about Dear Girls Stories.

Goodluck!

@PervertPrince: It's not totally concentrated on bands per se, but more on....relationships between bands...? I guess :/
Can't say anything because it'll prolly be spoilerish or unofficial.

@LVUER: Still trying to make that idea impossible in a sense. I'm thinking of connecting Ethan to the local police in some way, but I can't do that without my brain screaming "ACE ATTORNEYYYYY"

@OtomeWeekend: Well damn. That just happens to most of my ideas @_@ I think it's original, and BAM! turns out it's not.

@machinist: ....Let's just hope this project does get completed. and finishes well :?


=========

Okay. I can't decide if I should draw the sprites myself, or have someone else do that.
I'm getting sick of my own art style @_@ And I doubt my ~horrible~ lineart skills would do any of the characters justice.


Plus I can't draw guitars. hrngh.

Well, a lot of folks are too intimidated by celebrities and their social power to really call them out on things they do. Happens all the time. They don't need police connections to get away with things with just a slap on the wrist if they're well-known.

Well, I'm a fan of all Shu Takumi's game, like Ace Attorney series (including Edgeworth series) and Ghost Trick (I hope they'll make it a series too ^_^ )
